5 Observations on the News

1. Newspapers need to stop using the word "probe" in headlines, unless they're deliberately trying to be funny.

2. Bats are cool. Why would anyone want to shoot dozens of them?

A. John D'Anna used to be pretty high up on the newsroom food chain at The Arizona Republic - and a pretty decent character. Odd to see him doing quicky stories like this.

3. I usually agree with Robrt Pela, and often enjoy his opinions on local architecture. But not this time. SkySong is pretty cool and futuristic, especially at night.

4. Octomom wants to trademark her nickname. Well, she doesn't have right of first use. She didn't coin the phrase. I hope whoever did concoct it snares it out from under her.

5. You wouldn't like him when he's angry. FC Porto attacker Hulk carries on the Brazilan tradition of awesome nicknames. I am hoping for one named Bruce Campbell Suarez de la Sousa.
