- From the “Bad Things” Department – Police in Alabama have arrested an employee at Anniston Army Depot after police found stolen equipment, weapons, and grenades on the man’s property. For once, assuming that the weapon that was found was an M-4, the use of the term “assault rifle” might have been correct.
- From the “Blasts From the Past” Department – Rumors are swirling around the possibility that Secretary of State Clinton may leave the administration, who would replace her if she does, and so on. The current hot rumors are that she plans to leave, that Massachusetts Senator John Kerry will be nominated to take her place, and that the governor of Massachusetts might appoint former governor and one time presidential candidate Michael Dukakis to finish out Kerry’s term in the Senate. Got that straight? Basically, two failed candidates would move up, one to the executive branch and one to the legislative. Now all we need is for Bob Dole to be appointed to the federal bench and we’d have the trifecta of presidential also-rans.
- From the “Alrighty Then” Department – An Australian man is planning on making wine the old-fashioned way. By old-fashioned, he means that he will harvest the grapes nude and under the full moon, then put the wine in clay pots to age, and then bury the pots for a few months. I guess you’d call that “Australian Rules Viticulture”. You know, I think I’ll just stick to bourbon, thanks.
- From the “Holes in the Desert” Department – Paleontologists in Nevada have unearthed the fossil remains of two predator species recently, the dire wolf and the sabre-toothed cat. No word yet on whether or not they found the fossil remains of the first guy to get caught counting cards at the Mirage.
