• $1.2 billion for retrofitting Project 8 housing

I love typos. Above are a couple of clips from CNN's list of items cut from the economic stimulus package. I'm assuming that the words "million" or "billion" were omitted, but wouldn't it be fun if the plan really called for a whopping one-hundred dollars to be used for a distance learning program for one of the white house interns?

Or, if the "Neighborhood Stabilization" funding really was just enough to buy a cup of coffee for the old guy who walks around the neighborhood in the evenings, carrying one of those big staffs?
