“He arrived in South Bend Wednesday, still wearing the black-and-white suit with red dots that he wore to the inauguration”.

Newspaper claims car thief transformed into a goat
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090124/ap_on_fe_st/odd_goat_thief;_ylt=AkeJGpG9rHbooAg_5YFAfI7tiBIF
LAGOS, Nigeria – "One of Nigeria's biggest daily newspapers reported that police implicated a goat in an attempted automobile theft. In a front-page article on Friday, the Vanguard newspaper said that two men tried to steal a Mazda car two days earlier in Kwara State, with one suspect transforming himself into a goat as vigilantes cornered him.
The paper quoted police spokesman Tunde Mohammed as saying that while one suspect escaped, the other transformed into a goat as he was about to be apprehended. The newspaper reported that police paraded the goat before journalists, and published a picture of the animal.
Police in the state couldn't immediately be reached for comment."
They were probably busy adding photo to their online Goat Album.

Dating 101: Five Things Super-Happy Couples Do Every Day
http://dating.personals.yahoo.com/singles/relationships/24200/dating-101-five-things-super-happy-couples-do-every-day
"It all started one winter night years ago, when Julie had had a really bad day," says Thom, 33, a marketing director in Columbus, Ohio. "We were huddled under the covers of our bed, and Julie was describing how all the people who made her day miserable were 'bad polar bears' and how she didn't want any of the bad polar bears coming into the bedroom and how the bed was our refuge from them. You realize how embarrassing it is to admit this, right? Anyway, that's when we started calling the bed the igloo."
"The igloo is a place to retreat to," says Julie, 31. "It's our little sanctuary; only nice things happen in the igloo."
Eventually Julie and Thom began holding a powwow in the igloo at the end of every day, making a nightly excursion that Julie says has become a vital part of their five-year relationship.”
A powwow in the igloo?—oh, just give me the remote.

7 Steps to Avoiding Spiked Drinks
We suggest you skip the 7 steps and just roll your own.
Sent to you by Danny via Google Reader:
via How to of the Day on 12/14/08
There are many stories about drinks having been spiked with foreign substances and some of them unfortunately are true.[1][2] The act of spiking a drink is done with the aim of causing the target to become disoriented, unconscious, or to lower the targets inhibitions. The purpose of this may be as a precursor to sexual assault, robbery, or even in some cases it may be an attempt to sabotage sports players before a game.[3] Some of the drugs placed in drinks to create drowsiness or even unconsciousness include Rohypnol (Roofie) which is a sedative, GHB (Liquid X) a neuroprotective therapeutic drug which can cause unconsciousness, and Ketamine (Special K) an anesthetic used on animals.[4] If you have any concerns because you are alone or you don't feel that the situation is quite right, it pays to keep alert and limit your drinking. The following are some suggestions to help you to identify and avoid drinks that have been tampered with when consuming beverages at a social event or bar.Things you can do from here:
