Daily Weird News
It must be nice to have this kind of cash to give out to people. It seems that there really was a Santa Claus, of sorts, for the people of this Denver

U.N. Emergency Relief Coordinator Jan Egeland had to back down today from his earlier comments that the developed nations were stingy in their disaster relief efforts for the tsunami victims. But really, how much money have we donated? The US (population approximately 320 million) sent a paltry 15 million and the EU (population approximately 450 million) a measly 20 million while Canada sent 4 million (population approximately 30 million). Nice huh? The number of casualties continues to skyrocket as aid agencies do their best to help.
This Colorado guy's Christmas Light website was quite a scam, but is sounds like quite a clever scam.
When did Bin Laden become a religious figurehead that could tell Muslims if they are going to heaven or hell? I thought that was reserved for the Imams and Mullahs. No matter, because some people have taken his words as out of the Koran and attacked more good people.
This poor skirt wearing guy got trapped in an aid bin in Australia... I wonder if he was there on a bet.
Is this a sign that the people of Algeria are becoming more westernized, now that they have their own woman's glamour magazine? I bet it won't take more than a few issues before the presses these magazines are printed on are blown up by Islamic militants.
