Grand Prix Boycott
14 of the 20 drivers in Sunday's U.S. Grand Prix ended up boycotting the race at the last minute because they were concerned about tire safety. Actually, that was reason 13 drivers boycotted, the other driver quit because he didn't want to get a speeding ticket.

Gaza Agreement
Israel and the Palestinian Authority have agreed to tear down all of the abandoned Jewish settlers’ homes after the Israelis pull out of the Gaza strip this year. Hey, as long as they're destroying stuff, Jews and Arabs really CAN work together!

Gaza Agreement II
In a rare sign of cooperation in the Middle East, Israel and the Palestinian Authority have agreed to tear down all the abandoned Jewish settler homes after the Israelis pull out of the Gaza strip this year. The Palestinians are especially enthusiastic about razing the homes, but that’s because no one’s actually telling them about the whole "abandoned" part.
