brain spoon n. 1. A device used by 4th century Quirinalian monks to exact revenge for crimes deemed monstrously immoral. The device consisted of a large scoop with razor sharp edges, fixed to bellows and a hollow tube, through which was poured a mixture of vinegar and molten metal intended to soften the skull, thereby facilitating cranial penetration and extraction of brain sections. 2. Any device which causes extreme pain in the craniocerebral region.

Jersey Fresh

Earlier this month, New Jersey’s Governor Corzine signed the Global Warming Response Act, calling for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020, approximately a 20 percent reduction, followed by a further reduction of emissions to 80 percent below 2006 levels by 2050. Critics representing the energy industry responded, “Waahhh!” One said, “New Jersey acting alone is not going to solve global warming.” Good one. Meanwhile, let’s hope that someday we’ll be breathing fresh Jersey air.

But the Democratic majority in Washington seems to be doing their best to fail us. In June, Congressional Democrats introduced legislation that would limit the power of the EPA to set federal climate change rules, impeding state governmental efforts to reduce global warming.

At least one automobile manufacturer is responding to the consumer onslaught of requests for a plug-in hybrid car. Last week, Toyota announced that it will develop one - which will need a wall socket at night to charge and will rely on an electric motor to go many miles before sipping any gasoline. Of course, critics representing the automobile industry responded, “Waahhh! I don't think there's a huge market for them.” As you may know, in 1996 GM introduced the EV1, the first modern all-electric automobile, leased them, and then, once the leases were up, took them off the road and crushed them.
