Top Auto Plant Doomed
It turns out that one of auto plants GM is slated to shutdown was the most productive car-making factory in North America. It's proof once again that working hard and efficiently is no match for being willing to get paid three cents a day.


TB Man Moved
The man infected with tuberculosis who traveled on several flights anwyay, has been transferred to Denver's National Jewish Medical and Research Center. Of course, a Jewish hospital is the best place for a guy like him to get cutting edge medical care and the scolding of his life.


Potter Park
A "Disney-like" Harry Potter theme park is planned to open in Orlando in 2009. Of course, there already is a place that's been completely taken over by Harry Potter attractions, it's called "Barnes & Noble."


Bee Favorite Shocked
National Spelling Bee favorite Samir Patel was surprisingly ousted from the contest today after misspelling a word in the 5th round. Patel was later seen leaving the competition with several organized crime figures.

A 27-year-old man described as one of the world's most prolific spammers was arrested in Seattle Wednesday. He faces several years in jail for the horrific crime of forcing millions of people to learn how to use the "delete" button.
