Infected Tube

On January 4, 2008 … a high-definition format awaits its downfall.

Last night on “The Daily Show,” taped when everyone believed Barack Obama would handily win the New Hampshire primary and before pundits started dissecting whether Hillary’s tears actually helped her win, Jon Stewart reacted to the media circus surrounding Hillary’s “emotional breakdown.”

“That’s it? That’s the emotional breakdown that blows the election for her? I’m glad no one here ever sees me get a flu shot,” Stewart said.

WOW: This footage includes the act everyone is talking about, including some extra seconds of footage that were not shown the first night on television (included at end of video).

Famed movie director David Lynch may be a fan of technology for making movies, but he is SO a non-fan of watching some of those same movies on iPhone and other phones as well.

Here, on the clip I’ve freeze framed, screencapped and linked to now, David says:

“It’s such a sadness, that you think you’ve seen a film on your (bleeping-but I froze the clip just as his lips were forming the f-bomb)) telephone. Get real.”

Is David right that you are cheating yourself watching movies on your cell, or is he simply not up to speed on new mobile tech?

Or maybe a bit of both?

That’s what I think. Bigger the screen the better. Helps suspend disbelief, when you are in a darkened theater or even a home entertainment center and sit down to watch.

That said, even the small mobile screens, such as the iPhone’s are getting better. (via ZDNet)

Police said a school bus driver in Clinton, Connecticut drove more than 70 children in November while intoxicated.

Ramona Jennings was charged with driving under the influence on Tuesday.

Clinton police said she drank vodka for an hour and then drove a bus with 77 children on November 27.

“It’s my understanding that approximately 77 children from three different schools were on her bus that afternoon,” Sgt. Jerry Dunn of the Clinton Police Department.

Jennings ignored radio calls from other drivers asking her to stop the bus, police said.

She was swerving within lanes with the caution lights on, police said.
Police said a relief driver chased the bus down after Jennings refused to stop.

She eventually pulled over and said she was capable of driving, police said.

She was talked off the bus and another driver took over her route, police said.

“Apparently her conduct was suspicious and uncharacteristic, and her fellow bus drivers were concerned, and they actually had her pull over and have another driver take over her route,” Dunn said.

M&J Bus Co. had Jennings tested privately after she was taken off the bus.

Her blood alcohol content was more than four times the legal limit, at 0.343 percent, police said.

There were no injuries.

Disgusting:

Moon police said Beth Ann Chester also told them she and the student had sex in her car while it was parked in the school’s parking lot.

“She admitted to a full sexual relationship with a student in the car parking lot,” said Chief Leo McCarthy of the Moon Township Police Department.

Police said the boy’s cell phone contained photos and text messages from Chester, 26, of Scott.

“She sent nude photos,” said McCarthy. “Believe me, it was her.”

In one text message, police said, Chester called the boy “sexy” and made a graphic reference to his body.
