Yahoo and MSN don't care.� If you think that stuff like this is true,
no doubt you buy the Inquirer at the grocery store checkout as well.�
There's a reason why you won't find stuff like this on the New York Time,
CBC News etc etc web sites. 

Those stories there there for one
reason only - to make you look to get their click count up so they can
charge more for advertising.

Today's headlines:

-
Strange crimes of the week
- Obama and sex
- The subway
pusher

I dunno - I find it all crap!� The person who wrote
todays "Deadliest Cars" is getting a promotion for sure from the
amount of click's it got and the ads they sold - doesn't matter if it is
true or not - sensationalism news is what sells.� It's what Americans
seem to love the most!
