Coworker Has That Excuse That's Going Around
ANN ARBOR, MI—Digital Copy Shoppe employee Don Newson, 38, called in to work on Wednesday complaining that he was certain he had come down with the 24-hour excuse that has been going around. "My back is killing me, I feel stuffed up, and I have this pounding headache," said Newson, citing the initial symptoms of the excuse, which often afflicts those who are already late for work. "It sucks, because I want to come in, but I don't want anyone else to catch what I've got. I should be fine after sleeping for a couple days." Newson has placed himself on a strict regimen of watching the past six episodes of Entourage on HBO on Demand to cure the excuse.

"Iraq War Ends"
According to Reuters, a group known as the Yes Men have handed out more than 1.2 million fake New York Times newspapers mainly in New York City and Los Angeles on Wednesday with a front page story declaring "Iraq War Ends."
Other headlines declared that the "Maximum Wage Law Succeeds," "Nationalized Oil to Fund Climate Change Efforts" and "Nation Sets Its Sights On Building Sane Economy."
There is also a full page fake advertisement on page three from the world's largest publicly traded oil company Exxon Mobil saying the company applauded the end of the Iraq war and that peace is "an idea the world can profit from."
The elaborate 14-page edition, dated July 4, 2009, is said to be the work of a group called the Yes Men, whose previous hoaxes include masquerading as World Trade Organisation officials announcing they were disbanding the body.
The Yes Men, who were the subject of a book and documentary in 2004, have pulled off pranks including posing as Exxon Mobil and National Petroleum Council representatives to deliver a speech at a Canadian oil conference.

I'll never complain again...
The school has five concrete buildings and a playground with a basketball hoop made of two wooden poles and a broken blackboard. However, the children are allowed to only pat the balls, as if they throw them and they go over the edge of the cliff, it would take half a day to retrieve them.
According to reports in the West China City Daily, the elementary school has only one teacher who has been there for 26 years. Shen Qijun, 45, the teacher, has threatened to quit several times, but each time the villagers plead with him to stay as there would be nobody else to teach their children.
It was not me - it was the no armed man!
Two accomplices used clamps to fix the TV to his body before helping him out of the store in Munich, Germany and according to the report staff did not realise what had happened until they noticed a TV was missing from its stand and looked back at CCTV recordings.
A police spokesman said: "It's hard to believe that the sight of an armless man walking along with a giant TV clamped to his body did not get anyone's attention."
But then again it is Germany and they never seem to notice much... including bad hairstyles.
