Super Bowl and WWN

Patriats got defeated in the last 24 seconds! Oh man... That was so close. Damn it!

We watched Super Bowl in Aaron's place and I found a very interesting tabloid "Weekly World News." It is full of weird news, most of them are more than amusing. They claim that they do not do any journalistic verification of fact. So they actually collect "news" from all kind of sources, such as sightings of the Big Foot. Aaron even has a book that compiles maybe a year's publication of this WWN. There are a few genius reports:

1. Moon ray has turned Apollo Astronauts into werewolves.
2. Champ impregnates Lock Ness Monster
3. Wheat field circles - graffiti of aliens'
4. The Four Horsemen asked for directions in Paris
5. College student hacks into the network of Heaven: St. Peter is not only the Gatekeeper of Heaven, he is also the webmaster!

Too bad it has ceased to be published in print. Not that you can pick it up at newstands anymore. It keeps its online publication alive though.
