Freedom Fries and Giggling Trash Cans

BBC

North Carolina representative, Walter Jones, who coined the term "freedom fries" has had a change of heart and now is calling for troops to be withdrawn from Iraq. This is a surprising about face from someone who was once so supportive of the war. However, this does reflect a growing sentiment. A bill calling for Bush to set a plan for withdraw failed with only 30-some votes a few months ago. The same bill garnered 4 times as many votes recently, but still did not pass.

Trash cans and benches that can talk have been unleashed on the unsuspecting public living in Cambridge, UK. Their aims are unclear, but they seem to be having a good time.
