Priorities, people. Priorities!

Hmm, let's see, floods, wildfires, FBI arrests in a sub prime sting, economic crisis. I know, let's put a story about some freaks living in trees in Crazy Town in our paper. Cuz that's how we roll at the New York Times.

That woman spent all day yesterday in that platform/soap box, rallying her supporters against the university's workers. I spent most of the day praying she wouldn't fall down.

The best part, though, isn't in the NYTimes.com story. Her name, she says, is Dumpster Muffin. I am not making this up.
