Was watching a few things on the news tonight and saw the following: (I didn't catch it all, so I don't know where it occured)
1.) A man,trying to dig a hole in his banana field got swallowed up in mud, and had to be rescued with a backhoe. (I don't know what his condition is, but since they said rescued, rather than recovered, I would imagine he was still alive) Lesson: Be careful where you dig holes!
Next one: Kim Il (whatever his name is) was declared the, "sexiest man alive" (by the North Korean State-run newspaper, of course)

Actually, he was declared the sexiest man alive by the Onion, and China's official newspaper didn't realize it was satire and republished it.

Love The Onion, I think it's more truthful than the "real" news.

If anyone needs recommendation for a great movie, "The Onion Movie" is hilarious.
