Army Staff Sgt. Christian Bagge jogs with some moron
-Not even King Tut's curse worked this fast-
Michael David Schreiber faces charges of criminal trespassing, criminal mischief and public intoxication after police rescued him from the local boneyard in Merrillville, IN. After drinking, he and a companion decided it would be fun to go knock over some tombstones. They scored 14 before the dead struck back. Apparently, he got on the wrong side of a 1,000 pound monument and was stuck under it for three hours (no word on what happened to his buddy during this time). According to the report, Schrieber's 'legs were broken by the stone, and the family name on the gravestone left the letter "V" imprinted on his thigh, Merrillville Officer Ray Smith said.'

-Just like Pat Robertson's network...-
All iranian TV dramas will have to feature a character praying in every episode or lose their certification or authorization or whatever the hell it is iranian TV shows have to get to be on the air. I'm guessing "Oh please God, save me from this whacked-out government!" won't count. (AFP)
-He's probably a pretty evil SOB, but it's a funny joke anyway-
North Korean Lieutenant-General Kim Yong-chol told reporters a joke about George W. Bush. Seems a bunch of schoolkids are visiting DC and see Bush jogging. He steps in front of a car and the kids run over and push him out of the way, saving his life. He tells them they can have anything they want and they all say they want graves at Arlington Cemetery. When Bush asks why they'd want that, they tell him, "Because our parents will kill us when they find out what we've done!"
It should be pointed out that if he'd told that same joke about Kim Jong Il, he'd probably already be dead. (Reuters)
