Sometimes little things matter: "Grassy Knoll" |
|
One of the Saturday morning network shows was doing a piece on "cool electronic gadgets" as part of some back to school bit. They had a charging station. It was, basically, a box with some fake plastic grass in it. The grass hides all the cords plugged into a gang outlet inside and the devices all sit atop the grass.
It was called The Grassy Knoll.
I thought that name was already taken.

3. Ah, yes, and perhaps they could also include simulated pieces of JFK's brain... |
|
as a "lesson" to the young in what happens to you when you grow to become president if you open backchannels to communist leaders, to get around the CIA and try to establish a basis for world peace.*

4. Those three words instantly give me a sick feeling in my stomach. |
|
Surely, some better name could have been used.
