Daily Weird News
Let's hope Bush will feel Christian enough to 'unleash the compassion' and have the USA act like the world leader it is and donate more cash to the Tsunami disaster relief.
The Russians are going to begin charging the US for trips for US astronauts through 'commercialization' of the space flights to the Space Station. NASA has not yet picked up the slack left by the Space Shuttle program and the Russians are tired of paying the bill. Perhaps this is what the conservatives wanted all along; taking space flight out of government hands and putting it in the 'private sector'. But something tells me this is not what they had in mind.
A couple interesting side bars to the Tsunami Disaster:
(1) This quake may have moved the earth slightly from it's normal orbit with a little wobble.
(2) The animals in Sri-Lanka's wildlife preserve (not more than 2 miles from the coast) may have felt this coming because the park officials cannot find any dead beasts while, at the same place, 40 tourists were killed.
Police in Rabat, Morocco are at war with 'Professional Beggars' who rent and drug children to generate sympathy in the streets. I remember seeing such heinous people with passed out kids in the streets when I lived in Paris. I wonder how long such scum would last in the US?
Read this headline carefully. For some reason, perhaps my latent dyslexia, I thought they were talking about the 'Ghost of Barry Bonds' and as far as I know, he's still taking steroids...
This one has a lot of strange questions for the family tree. It looks like a mother (age 55) got implanted with her daughter's eggs and then was fertilized by her son in-law's seamen and gave birth to triplets. So who will the babes call 'mother' and who will they call 'grandmother'? It seems to have the smack of a hillbilly family tree...
And finally, the Canadian Junior team looks to be playing very well. There is also a heartwarming little story about the Borque family and the young Chris Bourque.
