1. The Salvation Army now takes donations by credit card. Which is ironic, since credit cards are one of the main reasons people need to receive money from the Salvation Army. It’s like a General Motors executive’s car breaking down while heading for a cliff.
2. Pope Benedict XVI says the Catholic Church should renew its friendship with artists. Taking a cue from Pope Julius II’s friendship with Michelangelo, Benedict told artists if they didn’t work for the Vatican, he would kill them.
3. A survey of 2009’s safest cars had none from Toyota. However, this was the first year they measured roof strength, and Toyota complained that the survey only tested its convertibles.
4. After the French soccer team qualified for the World Cup thanks to a blatant foul, French hospitals were filled with patients. Doctors had to explain that the strange unpleasant feeling was called “shame”.
5. Michael Jackson’s glove from his first televised Moonwalk is going to be auctioned. It might get the highest price for a Jackson glove since a rubber one from his first children’s concert.
