From the Silly Redundancy department: I was watching CNN Headline News this afternoon for a few minutes, and it featured coverage of an Atlanta bride to be who has disappeared. The segment ended with a comment about the wedding being postponed. I don't know about you, but I've never heard of a wedding in absentia.

Is there some requirement that franchisees of the Denny's Restaurant chain must be idiots? A group of Arab American men are suing after they were told "We don't serve Bin Ladens here," and made to leave a Florida Denny's in January 2004. Denny's were sued in the early '90s after black customers complained of mistreatment.
