  • Steve Jobs Obituary Accidentally Published

    It is reasonably common for a publication to write drafts of obituaries for famous people so they have a story ready in the event of their death.

  • Re: Tae Kwan Do Olympian Kicks Referee in the Face

    How could you dispute a call like that? I mean, a minute's a minute, and the clock doesn't lie--there's no room for subjectivity. Calling the judges racist for this call is like calling your professor racist because you failed a multiple choice test.

  • Re: Bigfoot Discovered in Georgia

    I doubt anyone would invite scientists to study a hoax, so I'm guessing this has to be real. I can't wait to hear the results of the research!

  • Bigfoot Discovered in Georgia

    We have all heard so many hoaxes about the legendary Bigfoot that supposedly roams the wilds of Northern America and Canada. But this time we have solid evidence. Two men in Georgia found the body of a huge apelike creature that perfectly fits the description of the elusive Sasquatch. What makes this...
