Seriously?

Boston officers shoot at suspect who fled stop in stolen SUV
BOSTON --Police fired shots at a man who fled a traffic stop in a stolen sport utility vehicle, drove over a busy downtown sidewalk and then smashed into oncoming cars on one-way street Tuesday, police and witnesses said.

The suspect, whose name was not immediately released, was shot once in the stomach and transported to Massachusetts General Hospital after the noontime chase that ended outside a Registry of Motor Vehicles office and an MBTA subway station, said Boston Police Superintendent Robert Dunford.

Four officers were taken to a local hospital to be examined, but Dunford said, "They're fine."

So many jokes here...were the officers upset? Out of breath? Did they accidentally shoot each other? At least they also brought the guy who was shot in the stomach to the hospital.

I think I heard on the news that a couple of them were in one of the cars that he smashed into, and they only shot him because he started reversing back right at them, trying to run them over...

The first episode of Survivor: Panama: Exile Island aired last night. This season the gimmick is they've split the 16 contestants into four tribes to start out: older women, older men, younger women, and younger men (more on this later). After each reward challenge, the losing team has to leave one member behind to spend the night alone on Exile Island. The upside to this is that supposedly there is an immunity idol hidden on the island. Anyhoo, after five years and a dozen locations, Survivor is still your best destination for reality television. Oh I'm sure a lot of production-y stuff goes on behind the scenes, but toward the end of those 39 days, the contestants are beat-up, weathered and hungry. Some look downright emaciated. That's real. But you know what would be even more real than Survivor? Survivor in HD. Since I picked up my first HDTV last summer, I've been gratified to find more and more HD programming available. Surely Survivor would be jumping on th...

If it's going to be that kind of party

Passed hors d'oeuvres: free Open bars: free Xbox stations: free Science Fiction Museum admission: free Amusement park rides: free Sheryl Crow plays to an audience of engineers: priceless So I'm out here in Seattle this week for SC|05 , the international supercomputing conference. Bill Gates wants to get Microsoft more involved with supercomputing, so he delivered the keynote address. Based on this admittedly small sample, I'd say Bill's parties are a lot more entertaining than his keynote speeches . The Microsoft party was hosted at the Experience Music Project , which is right next to the Space Needle . Upon arrival, I quickly located the main stage, along with the most accessible bars and appetizer spawn points. While I was waiting for the main event I entertained myself at the Science Fiction Museum , which I enjoyed more than I care to admit. At 10 pm sharp Sheryl Crow took the stage. They made an announcement that there would be no photography during the show. Of c...
