So, what’s going on in the world today?

— There’s a leak in the roof at Weekly World Central, right over the crime/county/UA desk.

— There’s a new issue of the Weekly out, which you can see right over there on the, um, right.

— Gabby Giffords’ boyfriend took his vehicle and docked with the space shuttle. I expect a press release from her campaign trumpeting this fact any minute.

— Kim Jong Il keeps hinting to the world that he has a really miniscule penis.

— Emmy nominations are out, and if Arrested Development doesn’t win for best comedy series, I shall have a major snit, unless The Office wins, in which case I’ll have a minor snit.

— And finally, autoerotic asphyxiation in Arizona seems to have caught the attention of The Associated Press.

That’s all the news in the world. Thanks for reading.
