Ugandan official: Virgins to get free college -- Aw, maaaaan. Why can't we do that here? Jesus, you want teenagers to stay celibate, that would work. (Not that we should seriously do it, but then again, some of us would really appreciate the freebie.)
What happened to the original 'Charlie Bucket'?
Battle over Supreme Court nominee may center on abortion -- Gee, you think?
Want your LJ zapped into space? -- "We strongly urge our users to refrain from language or content designed to provoke our alien neighbors," Murphy said. Like what? "Independence Day sucked!"?
The word "fail" should be banned from use in British classrooms and replaced with the phrase "deferred success" to avoid demoralizing pupils, a group of teachers has proposed. -- Oh, for fuck's sake. *headdesk*
German police let a nearly naked shopper go home after she told them she was getting groceries in the nude because she lost a spin the bottle contest, a police spokesman in Cologne said Wednesday. -- *snerk*

No, sirree. *whistles innocently*
