9/19

1. Police in Florida were said to have used a stun gun on someone asking a question of former presidential candidate John Kerry. Later, though, it was learned that the guy just went comatose from Kerry’s answer.

2. The military in Burma used tear gas to break up a protest by Buddhist monks. Why were the monks protesting? To get an apology for the violent break-up of a previous protest. So I guess the answer is… no.

3. Britney Spears’ former bodyguard told a courtroom that she took drugs, flaunted herself naked, and put her two children in danger. Then he started telling things we didn’t even know.

4. In Saudi Arabia, women will finally be asking for the right to drive. Conservatives are worried that if women drive, they will be in danger of immorality. As opposed to the current situation, which forces them to hitchhike.

5. The governor of Massachusetts has proposed three new resort casinos for the state. You know, the state’s slogan used to be: “Massachusetts -- You’re more likely to live here.” Oh yeah, what kind of odds will you give me?
