6/2

1. Friends and family gathered this week to let us all know that none of us ever really knew Diddley.

2. The Nigerian government is bragging that it just seized 80 tons of drugs, but Great Britain is fighting hard to get them to release Amy Winehouse. And that’s just what they found in her body. They haven’t even searched her luggage yet.

3. The UN has voted to allow any country’s navy to invade the waters of Somalia to find pirates if necessary. They also allowed them to find pirates, which is why all those boats were docked near Wall Street. Oh, was that Fleet Week?

4. There was a big story in Indiana about a plane full of skydivers that had to crash land. All the skydivers jumped to safety. Now, maybe I’m a little dense here, but why is this a story? That’s like “Boat Full of Olympic Swimmers Sinks” and everyone survives. “Clinton Campaign Bus Loses Engine” and Hillary gets out and pushes it, even though it’s completely dead.

5. Maybe the reason that Bush has a problem with global warming is that he is committed to leading the world in everything, and in global warming, we are far behind, so the only way we can lead is in the wrong direction.
