Rumsfeld als Poet
So manche Äußerung des amerikanischen Verteidigungsministers Donald H. Rumsfeld klang für zwei Musiker aus San Francisco wie pure Poesie.
Deshalb haben sie zu seinen Erklärungen kleine Kammermusik-Stücke komponiert und eine CD mit dem Titel „The Poetry of Donald Rumsfeld and Other Fresh American Songs“ herausgebracht.

Gmail Swap
The site "Gmail Swap" announces: "only a handful of lucky ducks who have snagged an account. And while the rest of us go hungry, you can be sure that the best email addresses are being gulped down by nefarious hooligans."
To get around having to have a lame address like "ws_alist_IRL_ck21@gmail.com," the site has a swap board where people try to make deals to get good email address names. See www.gmailswap.com
At one glance it appears many of the swap offers are comical with people offering "my soul" or "access to my infinite mind." Others offer money through PayPal, electronics or concert recordings. Perhaps, creativity would spare the need for offers?

Virtual Devils Curse Internet Church
The worlds first internet church allows you to choose an interactive virtual 3D character that can kneel, sing hymns, talk to others, hear a sermon, or shout "Hallelujah." But the temptation to be naughty has proven to be too great for some.
Some virtual demons have logged on as Satan and shouted strings of expletives during sermons. Others were using the 'shout' feature to yell "Satan loves you."
The "Church of Fools" deputy editor said "At least we're not preaching to the converted" and have decided the best course of action for now will be virtual damnation. When a demon acts up, they will be instantly logged off by church wardens.
