Stupid Things I Saw on TV Last Night #2
January 28, 2008 – 12:04 pmWhile the writers’ strike drags on, we’re stuck with absolutely awful programming like NBC’s Top 100 Guinness World Records, which painfully recounted such great records as the world’s fattest twins, the world’s largest hot dog, and the world’s largest gathering of people dressed in gorilla suits.
Included in the list was the world’s fastest airplane, the SR-71 Blackbird, which could travel from Los Angeles to New York in an hour and a half, as demonstrated by this map:
Wow. All this time, I thought Los Angeles was in the United States. Little did I know that it’s actually in Mexico.
For the love of God, please get this strike settled before I throw something at my TV.

You know, now that you mention it, I fly to LA pretty frequently and was wondering why they were so insistent on me having a passport.
That and there were a lot of Mexicans, but I hear that’s normal.
