Some investment banks were trying to work with the pirates too, but the pirates wouldn’t do it. “We may be thieves,” said the pirates, “but we do have some scruples.”
2. The government has apparently been listening to the phone calls of Americans living abroad. However, the project didn’t get anywhere, because no one in the Bush Administration speaks any languages other than English.
3. Instead of getting a divorce, a couple in Cambodia have sawn their house in half. And as part of a three-hour ABC special, while they sawed through the house, in the middle stood David Blaine! Cheating death again!

5. Next month, there is going to be a magazine cover showing Angelina Jolie breast-feeding. The subtitle is: “The second-luckiest males in America.”
