From the sublime to the ridiculous

I heard 2 notable news stories on the radio this morning.

The first was the announcement of the death of Rosa Parks, the black woman who refused to give up her seat to a white man on the bus in 1955, and with this small act of defiance, changed history.

The second was a traffic announcement warning of a jam due to a lorry-load of lard on the motorway.

What a wonderful diverse world we live in.
