Who's Dumber?!

The Sun reported today that the purple lights on the Washington Monument were in support of Heart Month, the heart disease awareness month that President Bush had proclaimed in 2004 (black history and heart disease now share the same month of February). Problem is, the American Heart Association had asked the city for red lights, but either no one from the AHA complained, or no one in the city bureaucracy listened, and the Sun waited to report on the mix-up until it was too late for anyone to do anything about it.

So, if you're having a birthday, planning a family reunion, competing in a triathlon, or just turning over a new leaf, pick a theme color, then choose the color to the left of that one on the color wheel, and submit your request for your personal illuminated commemoration on the Washington Monument. What could possibly go wrong?
