With the passing of one of “The Little Rock Nine,” President Obama said that all Americans owe a debt to those brave civil rights icons. In an attempt to show his intimate knowledge of history, Vice President Joe Biden said we all owe a similar debt to “The Dave Clark Five.”
A gubernatorial candidate in Nevada is proposing a “pay to speed” plan, wherein drivers who are in a hurry call a number, pay a $25 fee and are permitted to speed for 24 hours.

A new report says that Paris Hilton received special treatment while in a Las Vegas jail. Of course she did, she had all the good drugs. That stuff is like money in the joint.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has begun dropping Tylenol-loaded dead mice into the forests on Guam, in an attempt to control the population of brown tree snakes, since the acetaminophen in Tylenol is deadly to the snakes. So now apparently dropping bombs from planes is the answer to everything. OR A USDA representative says there can be as many as 20 brown tree snakes per acre on Guam, one of the highest snake densities recorded anywhere in the world, second only to Washington DC. OR Instead of mouse-bombs, the original plan was to drop Yaeger-bombs, but those were quickly scooped up by the soldiers and sailors stationed nearby.

Reports indicate that bank robberies are now the number one way Al Qadea in Iraq is raising money for its missions. The surprising rest of the top five were: 2) Bake sales, 3) Vegas-style casino night! 4) Free cruise raffles, and 5) “Beaver Hunt” photo contests.
