Stimulus Job Inflation
A USA Today report finds that the White House is claiming thousands of stimulus jobs were created for just $1,500 per job. Either the government is hiring some of Eliot Spitzer's hookers by the hour, or something is wrong.



College Salaries
23 U.S. college presidents now make more than $1 million per year. Considering the numbers of students they get to pay $40k per year in tuition for useless degrees, they should either go to jail or make the really big bucks on Wall Street.




Bloomberg Election Spending
New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg is spending $35,000 per hour on his re-election campaign. $35,000 per hour just to save ONE job? The people in the White House can't believe how much money Bloomberg is saving!



MIT Star
MIT running back DeRon Brown is the most unique player in college football... not because he's averaging 170 yards per game, but because he's the only running back who can calculate his own stats.



Cereal Claims
Critics are blasting Kellogg's claim that its cereals can boost immunity. They're also questioning the company's assertion that it is saving millions of children's lives every day by now longer stuffing each cereal box with choking hazard toys.
