Ve haff vays off makink you talk!
U.S. soldiers interrogating recalcitrant Iraqi P.O.W.s have no shame, no morals, no dignity. They're subjecting the poor slobs to songs by Barney the purple dinosaur in an attempt to get them to talk. That's beyond cruel.
Amnesty International is looking into this to see if the U.S. is breaching the Geneva Convention. Really.

What do you mean there is no cat?
"You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."
- Albert Einstein, explaining radio
There used to be a cat
