Which is pretty much business as usual here at What Have We Learned.
This week, Tom and I discuss protesters, Newt and Wii. Sort of.
First off, protester:
Time magazine named “The Protester” as the Person of the Year.
What have we learned?
And Fox News named “The Pepper Spraying Police Officer” as its Person of the Year.
And Now, Newt:
Presidential candidate Newt Gingrich has raised an issue — the nation’s lack of a defense against electro-magnetic pulse — that’s based on a scenario from a science-fiction novel.
What have we learned?
This week, he plans to slam the Obama Administration for not keeping us safe from vampires.
And finally, Wii, sort of:
The National Transportation Safety Board has recommended that states impose a total ban on texting, e-mailing or talking on cell phones while driving.
What have we learned?
But Playstation Portables are still OK, right?

Mike Argento, a York native and graduate of York Suburban Area High School and Penn State, first came to the York Daily Record in 1983. He even had gray hair back then. After stints covering everything from cops to city hall to state government to the environment, he began writing a column for the paper, three times a week, in 1989. His column can be about anything and so is his blog, which encompasses life in York County and beyond. And, for the record, as he told his wife the other night, he wishes people would stop asking him, 'What's wrong with you?' He really doesn't know.
