That's what bothers me about political correctness- people get offended by trivial or nonexistant problems and ignore the serious ones as if we've got nothing worse to worry about.

What's crazy is that often times the people that get worked up the most are not the very "subjects" of the potential insult.

Anyway, I ran across something rather disturbing.

The recent investigation of drug use among baseball players also uncovered that Rudolph was in fact using performance enhancing drugs to light up his nose. Rudolph claims that he only uses it every December to treat his arthritic legs, but further investigation contradicts his statement.

In an unrelated news, Arnold, the former head reindeer who was stripped of his lead reindeer role by Rudolph, was arrested at LAX after his nose was found to have been equipped with powerful laser pointer lights.
