1 Don't worry - we'll send in Bat Boy to get them first. After all, according to the Weekly World News, he caught Saddam for us!

2 One of those other highlights:

ALIENS CLAIM JACKO IS THEIR SON

Why, that makes perfectly sense to me!

4 That does it. My great, great grandmother and my wife's grand mother were from germany were moving back there to be near that river of beer.

I know it's true because I read it in the Weekly World News.

5 From AC's link:

A PREVIOUSLY undiscovered natural river of beer has been found deep in Germany's Black Forest.

And while you're doing that, you might check whether there is a natural stand of Black Forest Cakes anywhere nearby.

Mmmm...cake...

7 Of course this is true!

(This message was brought to you by the German Tourist Office)

PS: Don't expect us to stage a road accident with a beer truck every day!

8 With that type of weapon out there, I hope that we don't have a mine shaft gap.

9 Further conversations with wild-eyed strangers:

(puzzled look)
Well...what does it do to women?

"It turns them queer too!"

(even more puzzled look)
(mutters) I thought they already were...

Thanks. I'll be here all week...

11 EXTREMIST Muslim scientists are developing a bomb that turns anyone within a 30-mile radius of its blast into a homosexual

They've had that for 1400 years. It's called a Mosque.

13 They've been unable to keep up with the arms race, the space race, and the peace race. Their people want refrigerators and nylon stockings. They couldn't allow a doomsday gap. They read that we were developing one. Their source was the New York Times. Apologies to Stanley Kubrick.

15 Frank G. Me too. I love women. Maybe we can bring back the Eskimo family that the rovers found living on Mars. Maybe they can help.

23 Wasn't this the plot of a Maxwell Smart made-for-TV movie?

26 We're being threatened by the fabulous mauve bomb? I do hope proper invitations have been sent. A decent production is the key to success.

27 Hmmm... "gay bomb"? we should be more worried about fagmentation grenades in the hands of terrorists or fifth columnists.

29 If only the gay bomb worked like a neutron bomb in reverse: all the people are fine, but everyone's place looks simply FABulous after it goes off.
