1. Malaysia has outlawed yoga for Muslims, because they don’t want them to be limber. Flexibility goes against the Koran. They are worried about women in spandex stretching their bodies. That might seem strange, until you think about your average yoga class. [Show images of spandex-wearing women doing yoga.] I don’t even let my seven-year-old kid watch yoga.
2. The Vatican newspaper has now forgiven John Lennon for saying that the Beatles were more popular than Jesus. It follows on forgiving other people for being crazy radical “truth-tellers”, like Galileo and Darwin.
3. Astronauts at the International Space Station are still trying to fix a system that turns urine into drinking water. The system was built in China, where it’s simply called the drinking water system.
4. A new study says that exercise and sleep can help women not get cancer. Because if they’re getting plenty of sleep and exercising regularly, they’re probably not smoking.
5. A couple in Arkansas is suing McDonald’s because some employees posted nude photos of the wife online after finding them on a cell phone they left at a McDonald’s restaurant. Now normally, it would seem ridiculous to sue the company, since it had nothing to do with it, but there was this section in the employee manual. [Show fake “manual” section that contains a clause reading: “All nude photos found on the premises of any McDonald’s must be sent to the executives at McDonald’s headquarters for analysis.”]
