Chapter 26: Random

Hey, Just popped in to show you all some of the weird and funny headlines that I found on news sites here today… some are quite interesting:

KOLKATA, India (Reuters) - A giant aldabra tortoise thought to be around 250 years old has died in the Kolkata zoo of liver failure, Indian authorities said on Thursday

I remember this seeing this turtle on Ripley’s~ RIP lil’ dude!

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Reebok International is recalling about 300,000 promotional bracelets after a child reportedly died of lead poisoning after swallowing one, U.S. officials said on Thursday.

Umm… where were the parents too? Come on – Letting a child play with a bracelet – senseless.

MOSCOW (Reuters) - A Russian woman fell 35 metres (114 ft) from the eleventh floor of her apartment building and survived, Russia's Channel One television reported Tuesday.

Talk about the grace of God – hope she learned a valuable life lesson.

WASHINGTON - Commuters racing to catch the train typically forget things in the car — keys, wallets, briefcases. But a baby daughter? That's what happened Thursday just north of Washington, police say.

Mmm… I heard of forgetting things but YOUR KID – COME ON!!

WASHINGTON - The Earth is already shaking beneath melting ice as rising temperatures threaten to shrink polar glaciers and raise sea levels around the world.

Harvo is RIGHT! We’re all gonna die! Ha!


Australia Yahoo:
Today’s Poll Question:     Do you think Canada should scrap its annual seal hunt?
                    Yes = 129
                    No = 32
                    Undecided = 7

Seems like McCartney is having a bigger boost in other places of the world – other then Canada! Ha! Good luck with that Paul - :rolls eyes:


American Idol:
GOODBYE KEVIN America voted and we say goodbye to Kevin.

Like I posted on the AI forum last night…. “The Chicken As Flown The Coup”! Later Kev- **cough, about time, cough**


I have such an interesting life… ha! Peace everyone!

Prayers
