Stupidest headline of the week:

One-third infant deaths premature

Brought to you by the Sydney Morning Herald. What I want to know is this: if 1/3 of infant deaths are premature, what are the other 2/3 ??? Did they live a full and complete life in those few months? Hello. Now, I know what this headline was supposed to say, but it doesn't. It says that 1 out of every 3 infants that die exit before thier time. What I want to know is, what do the other two do so that we as a society believe that their life was well spent?

So here's one for the brilliant editors over there at the SMH: Unemployment checks one-third regular pay. Allright!
