2. They have a disclaimer up front now
that says it's entertainment. I was disappointed, I always enjoyed laughing at it and thinking of all of those folks silly enough to believe it. :)

3. I simply love the Weekly World News
My favorite was when they had the alien on the cover who was supporting Bush in 2000 - the twist was that the SAME alien had backed Clinton previously. Those damn flip-flopping aliens!

Oh, and the Titanic life ring stories - one year, there was a bunch of them. Seems the North Atlantic was simply cluttered with Titanic life rings - one had a live baby unaged since 1912! Another had a pair of gay lovers who'd died together and another had somebody else in it. Can't travel across the ocean without running into a few Titanic life rings. :shrug:
