7/21

1. A man in New York has recreated the recipe of Kentucky Fried Chicken. He left his job at the bank JPMorgan to focus on this, because the fried chicken is healthier than any of the bank’s financial advice. He says that he quit to spend time doing what he loves (true). And to be with his kids, because considering that what he loves is fried chicken, he’s probably not going to be around very long. He also says that by giving out the KFC recipe, he’s helping people in tough economic times, so they don’t have to spend so much money on… Kentucky Fried Chicken?

2. Tasers are causing controversy again, because yesterday a man hit by a Taser caught on fire. But, this is true, he was also carrying a can of gasoline and a lighter. You know, maybe it was just the lighter and the gasoline. I’ve heard those things sometimes cause fires too.

3. Did you know that 12-year-olds can apparently legally hunt by themselves in 21 states? So don’t go hiking wearing a hoodie. “Oh my god, it’s Voldemort! Shoot!”

4. Kim Jong Il is especially enjoying today’s solar eclipse in Asia, because it’s the only time he can go out during the day without bursting into flames.

5. The ex-president of India was frisked by staff of Continental Airlines, and the Indian Civil Aviation Minister said this was “beyond the scope of the laws of our country”. Really? You obviously don’t have a lot of laws. Actually, in my experience with India, that’s pretty true.
