What I Learned from the News

-- From the Associated Press on Michael Moore's documentary about the health-care industry:

Ken Johnson, senior vice president of the trade group Pharmaceutical Researchers and Manufacturers of America, said industry officials were "freaking out and pulling their hair out" when they first got word of Moore's documentary.

Hope their HMO covers follicle replacement.

-- From the Associated Press:

Computer maker Dell will delay filing its quarterly results statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the expected date, as the company said Monday an informal SEC probe has raised the "possibility of misstatements in prior period financial reports."

Dude, you're getting an indictment.

-- From a Time article headlined "Does God Want You To Be Rich?":

"Who would want to get in on something where you're miserable, poor, broke and ugly and you just have to muddle through until you get to heaven?" asks Joyce Meyer, a popular television preacher and author often lumped in the Prosperity Lite camp. "I believe God wants to give us nice things."

Jesus wept.
