For reasons related mostly to laziness, I ended up watching Maury today.

Great Ghu, I really hope this is all fake. Seriously, these people are too pathetic to live. The usual sweepings from low-rent trailer parks who seem to lack brains, common sense, self-respect, and self-control. Lots of screaming, cheating, and security rushing the stage.

Seriously, the Springer show was more dignified most days.

But the reason I post about this is the stunning revelation that Maury Povich has access to amazing technologies that could win the ware on Terror! Each segment featured a lie-detector result. Now, I've been on a polygraph a few times. You are asked yes or no questions. "Is your name Douglas Berry?" Yes. "Are you a doctor?" No. "Did you kill Lee Harvey Oswald?" No.

But Maury's machine went beyond that! It not only reveled lies (with apparent 100% accuracy) but also reveled details! Asking "did you cheat on your girlfriend?" gives not only the veracity of the response, but the number of transgressions.

I want that machine.
