What weird news stories make you either laugh out loud, or just say "huh?'

     Jennifer Lopez and rapper pitbull on the AMA say,  put the kiddies to bed early.  I suppose regular TV is not all entirely boring these days.

Perhaps these ideas go along with the hints of the global food crisis story covered by National Geographic posted above (and others out there).   

Strange when radicals and conservatives begin to agree on a topic,  in the news  . . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QceWDSdBVhc

Now one can decide to laugh out loud,  or . . . . just say "huh" ?

When Glen Beck talks about common sense you have to wonder...how on earth does he recognize what it is?

[Archer]

Agreed.  The contrast of thought and unity of thought is the interesting point of reference.

The Three Kings of the Nativity story were actually sorcerers. They were magicians, priests of the Zoroastrain religion of Persia. The word "magi" (as in the Three Magi) is the plural of magus, meaning "wizard" in Old Persian. It is from this root that the word "magic" is derived.
