- Pat Robertson, televangelist and right wing Christian crackpot, was taken into custody today by the FBI for threatening to blow up the State Department with a nuclear bomb. Robertson, head of the Christian Broadcasting Network, made his comments on a loony right wing Christian television program called the "700 Club." "If I could just get a nuclear device inside Foggy Bottom, I think that's the answer...We've got to blow this thing up," Robertson said. Foggy Bottom is the Washington DC neighborhood where the State Department is located. |

- Scotching rumours that his health is failing, the pope did the hokey-cokey last week. The Holy Father and his entourage visited the Casbah Lounge in downtown Naples and were seen to have joined late night revellers on stage in what was initially described as a conga line but which "morphed into a hokey-cokey." "He was putting his left leg in like a man 20 years his junior" said one witness. Others described bishops who got on the karaoke and did a Westlife song. Catholics around the world welcomed the news that the holy father is as sprightly as ever. |

- In an act that can only be described as pure evil, a rabid young Wiccan girl wearing a black cape burst into the Landover Baptist 11 a.m. Sunday morning church service and flung the bloody carcass of a headless black cat across 297 pews. Pastor Deacon Fred ducked just in time as the abomination splashed into the baptismal pool, spattering chunks of animal flesh and water over the white robes of a horrified Christian Seniors Choir visiting from Des Moines. Pushing a frenzied crowd of screaming parishioners aside, Church ushers acted quickly and detained the Devil's harlot for questioning in the sanctuary basement before taking her to the furnace room. |

- Moments after unsuccessfully propositioning all of the female patrons at the Kon Tiki Lounge, God's gift to women, 31-year-old Patrick Roland, was returned to his maker Monday night. "That Pat guy was cute, but he sure was pushy," said Debbie Werner, a fellow Lounge patron. "He kept trying to buy me Cosmos, but I told him to buzz off. A few minutes later, he stumbled out the door and got run over by a bus." Werner said she hopes that next time God's feeling generous, He gives women something more useful, like money. |

- Lu sur Risal : "L'impressionnante insurrection du peuple bolivien aurait abattu bien plus tôt le faible gouvernement de Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada si ce dernier n'avait compté avec l'appui politique et militaire de Washington qui perçoit parfaitement qu'une chute de son allié renforcerait le bloc Venezuela-Brésil-Argentine. A La Paz, les pauvres sont en haut et les riches sont en bas. Ce n'est pas une métaphore mais bien une réalité géographique qui a donné son empreinte au pays le plus pauvre, et probablement le plus rebelle, d'Amérique latine. A 4. |

- Diebold says cease and desist to critics I don't know how much there is to the criticism of Diebold's electronic voting systems, but it's not just the "evil Republican-big business conspiracy" people who are concerned. In fact, some of the criticism comes from Diebold's own employees, who think the security of the systems is appaling. And how does Diebold deal with this? By issuing a cease and desist notice to Indymedia for copyright infringement. |
