I don't know about you but sometimes when I'm reading articles online, I tend to assume the ads next to them are placed there by some great conspiracy. A good example of today's great conspiracy is in the New York Times website.
I don't know if it's a random ad that gets placed so many times or what, but it's the ad that showed up in the article I was reading.
The article was about some artists on Long Island who had lost touch with reality and have been building a $2million home that requires people to sign a waiver before they can go in so that no one will get sued when visitors fall down or start vomiting from having their perceptions screwed with. The floors are all topsy and the windows are all in weird places and everything in the house apparently rolls downhill towards the oddly defined and hard to use kitchen. They have a name for it, but it looks like a Green Eggs and Ham house to me. I imagine the people around it will be calling it the Dr. Suess house before too long.
Anyway, the article says this:
Its architecture makes people use their bodies in unexpected ways to maintain equilibrium, and that, she said, will stimulate their immune systems.
“They ought to build hospitals like this,” she said.
And in the side bar, lined up perfectly is a picture of Hillary R. C. and her caption is about health care. It made me laugh. Hillary does "tend to throw people off balance."
Since I don't know if you'll be able to experience it for yourself (you can try at this link), I've clipped a picture and placed it here for your viewing pleasure.
