He's got mad skillz!
Reuters photo editors have a rough job. Not only do they have to pick a bunch of pictures to feature in their Editor's Choice slideshow, they have to come up with appropriate captions, too. I guess the photographers come up with captions and the editors edit them, but they must be busy. Here's two examples from the last 48 hours:
I sent this to a bunch of friends with the following note: Yes, Reuters editors, Kanye West is TOTALLY the most eye-catching element in this photograph.
Singer Kanye West (C) sits courtside as he watches the Los Angeles Lakers play the Denver Nuggets during Game 2 of their NBA basketball playoff series in Los Angeles, April 23, 2008.
Then in today's slideshow, there's this:
A new police graduate lies on the ground and plays dead during a demonstration of skills by new police graduates in Najaf, 160 km (99 miles) south of Baghdad April 24, 2008. Some 425 police cadets graduated on Thursday after three months of training at a police academy in Najaf.
Well, looks like those three months of training really paid off! He's got the "playing dead" skill down cold.

I googled myself (hey, don't we all google ourselves?), and imagine my surprise when I found your blog-entry concerning my comment made on Zach Braff's blog. My already giant ego became so big it jumped out of my head, self-procreated and moved with his family to the very north of Sweden, where I hear he is having a great time, breeding reindeers and fighting of polar bears.
Although I know it's kinda pathetic getting all wet in your pants just because some random person from the States makes a comment about your comment, especially when it's like two years ago, you should know that
I'm forever thankful, and if you ever find yourself in Stockholm, Sweden, and in a desperate need of a beer-buddy, I'm your go-to-guy.
Sincerly,
