5/3

1. The prime minister of Italy is getting a divorce, because his wife says he flirts with younger women. She says she didn’t realize this when they married, back when he was 53 and she was 34!

2. A tsunami apparently hit New York City about 2,300 years ago, completely flooding what is now Wall Street. Yeah, thanks, God! About 2,300 years too late.

3. Because of swine flu, China just put a bunch of Mexican travelers in quarantine. That reverses the usual trend. Usually it’s Mexico putting Chinese in quarantine.

4. President Obama said yesterday that it’s not such a bad thing for more college grads to go into fields besides finance. Like special effects. And magic. Those are all pretty much the same thing.

5. Two Alaskans have tied in the annual contest to guess what time the ice will break up on a particular river. This is what they do for fun in Alaska. Is it any wonder this is the same state that produced Sarah Palin?
