12/19

1. An active glacier has now been found on Mars, which might finally inspire a manned mission to Mars, because now the cruise ship industry is going to be behind it.

2. Russian President Vladimir Putin has been named the Person of the Year by Time Magazine. The competition would have been closer, but all of Putin’s opponents for the award were recently found dead.

3. Some of Fortune Magazine’s “101 dumbest business decisions of 2007” were Prozac for dogs and Leona Helmsley leaving $12 million to her dog. But actually, the $12 million makes sense, considering how much Prozac costs.

4. Rapper 50 Cent has just performed a sold-out show in Kosovo, saying: “I know exactly what happens when the guns come out.” The Kosovars then shot him.

5. A new study says training is more important for racehorses than genes. The study was funded by all the male horses that don’t get to have sex with thousands of fillies a year.
