1/14

1. A new study says hallucinations are more common in people who drink more than seven cups of coffee a day. But you know, maybe they’re seeing hallucinations because they’re not sleeping! They also said they sensed the presence of dead people. No, after seven cups of coffee, I think they’re just sensing the presence of ordinary people. They only seem dead because they aren’t freaking out on caffeine.

2. Did you hear about this businessman who faked his own death in a plane crash to escape all his debts to clients? Now if he doesn’t have the guts to do it on his own, plenty of his clients would probably have been willing to do it for him.

3. And Steve Jobs has now proved wrong the old adage that an apple a day keeps the doctor away.

4. The U.S. trade deficit shrunk to its lowest level in five years, which means that more money is staying in the country. Unfortunately, that’s just because no one is buying anything.

5. The star of the cult TV series “The Prisoner”, Patrick McGoohan, has died. So now “number six” refers to how many feet underground.
