I wonder as I wander

Goings-on in today's world that leave me with unanswered questions:

• Former President Gerald Ford returned to work today after a brief health setback earlier in the week sent him to the hospital.
  
  Work? What kind of work does a 92-year-old former President do?
  
  
• I haven't seen it yet, but...
  
  Did Peter Jackson's remake of King Kong really need to be 188 minutes long?
  
  
• Actor Lillo Brancato Jr., who used to play mobster Matt Bevilacqua on The Sopranos, faces murder charges in the death of a New York City police officer.
  
  Did Lillo not get the memo that it's just a TV show?
  
  
• Bob Dylan just signed to work as a DJ on XM Satellite Radio.
  
  Hey, Bob: How does it feel?
  
  Hey, XM: Are you going to provide online subtitles, so listeners have a clue what Dylan is saying?
  
  
• Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced the other day that he doesn't believe the Holocaust actually occurred; that the murder of six million by Nazi Germany is a "myth" constructed by the Western world to justify the creation of a Jewish state in the Middle East in 1948.
  
  A myth? Hasn't he ever seen the opening scene of X-Men?
