I Watched the News Today, Oh Boy....

Can someone please fucking tell me why it's taken nearly 2 goddamned weeks to figure out that the asshole extradited (sic? You'd think I could use a spellchecker, right?) from Asia (Thailand? See? This is how much I fucking cared about this oversaturating piece of news) wasn't Jon Benet's killer?
All last week it was "The suspect is being extradited to Colorado. Officials aren't sure of the integrity of his confession." And the whole time I'm yellling at the fucking tv "DNA!!! DN FUCKING A!! We can solve this right now!!"
Well, the DNA came back.
No dice.
See? Wasn't that easy???
I'm going on-line today to see how long a DNA test actually takes.

(EDIT! DNA Tests can be done in as little as 3 days... 3 DAYS!!!!!)

Because this was rigoddamnediculous. Even if it takes 2 weeks to come back, here's how they could have handled things:

"Suspect in Jon Benet murder is undergoing a DNA test. We'll let you know when the results come back. Seriously, sit tight, we'll let you know. Go pay attention to something else now."

End of Discussion until we get an answer.

Today is the the Anniversary of Katrina. I'm glad they've dropped the Superdome speculation footage. The alleged rapes, murders and riots... Talk about a situation the media grabbed and ran to Texas, dropped it on GW's step with a flaming bag of shit, and back with. It was atrocious to be sure, but get your facts straight before you start telling stories, Reporters.
I have a friend at work whose family lost their home. They're living in Kentucky now. It's really awful. My heart goes out to everyone who was affected by the hurricane.

And Starbucks is expanding in Chicago!! 200 some-odd new stores. Because, you know, we don't have enough of those in this town.
"She was in the Starbucks across the street from the Starbucks I was in..."

Fucking sigh.

3 Days people. According to sources on the Internets, DAN testing can yield results in as little as 3 DAYS!
