Hint: you can’t read it by blowing up this picture, but there is actual text in the balloon, not “Lorem ipso.” I used a font size that would barely be readable if the panel hadn’t been shrunk down for the crawls but would be unreadable at the final size.
If you want to know what Tesla said badly enough, then you’ll find a way to figure it out.
I don’t get BBC News 24 so I don’t know if they were covering Lohan like this, but every network in the States was. And I’ve already made too much fun of Fox and MSNBC, and CNN is a joke in and unto itself. So it was the Beeb’s turn.
I’VE DONE IT! :) Here’s my good deed for the day:
(PS to Pab - I think there’s an extra “will” in there.)
“Be sure to correct the azimuth as Grandpa crosses over the horizon on his next orbit. Otherwise, there is a 95% chance that you will lock onto an object that is not Grandpa, and as we attempt to tractor him slowly toward the ground, we will find ourselves bringing in a communications satellite of some kind. If that [will] happens, not only will we risk bringing all communications in Western Europe to a complete halt, but Grandpa will stand a chance of achieving escape velocity and drifting away, then space aliens may see him as a new weapon threat and decide to invade! Not to mention what this would all mean for the Latvians, the goat, and the local Wimpy Bar franchisees!”
LOL!!! I love the crawl. (Our local PBS stations show BBC World News and Newsnight. They only give brief mention of Ms. Lohan’s behaviour, but this is satire.)
For those who can’t read the crawl: “Source: ‘Possibly going to have Mexican’/ Korean Deli braces for possible arriv(al)/ Today’s Weather: Mostly cloudy, 40% chance of Britney Spears towards evening”

Queen, watching an old Monty Python this morning and you were running around in your knickers. Whats up?

Thanks and gratz to those readers patient enough to figure out the small print, and kind enough to share the results!

I just had to check it out for myself (save and magnify the larger version). I consider it worthwhile ;-)
