NASA claims 2012 is not real

NASA has decided to come out publicly against the theory that the world as we know it will end on December 21, 2012. The first date that this was supposed to happen was set for May of 2003 so when nothing happened, theorists moved the date back to the end of a cycle on the Mayan calendar. NASA has debunked the theory of a mysterious planet colliding with earth and says that no such planet exists. http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/afp-nasa-2012-myths.html

A deer that watches tv?

A 6-month old buck named Bubba was wandering around Elba on Halloween creating quite a stir. He knocked down a 2 year old and left a hoof print on the child's back, scared trick-or-treaters, and ended up on a couch watching tv. Bubba wears an orange scarf and a sign that reads, "Hi, my name is Bubba. Please don't shoot me." http://www.winonadailynews.com/news/local/e7e1b0a6-c83b-11de-8e1c-001cc4c002e0.html

Glee

Glee is a fantastic musical comedy about "real" teens who have found their niche. It's funny, appalling, sad, entertaining, and has a touch of soap opera too. It's on FOX on Wednesday nights at 8pm. They have been chosen to receive an award from Diversity Awards for their diverse cast. I am hooked!! http://omg.yahoo.com/news/glee-cast-to-receive-award-for-diversity/30495

free change of clothes

A local woman has opened a clothing store for bariatric patients. The weight comes off rapidly after the surgery and it can be a burden to buy new clothes every other week. All clothing at her store is free. She hopes to become nonprofit and offer other services as well. http://lacrossetribune.com/news/local/article_77a461de-c67f-11de-b6dc-001cc4c03286.html
