HEADLINES

The Reds Like the Green :
A recent survey found that 50% of Russians find bribery to be a legitimate political practice. The other 50% disagreed, but could be persuaded otherwise.

JukeBox Zero :
A stabbing at a bar in North Dakota this weekend was reportedly the result of a fight over the jukebox. One man is greatly injured and the other will likely serve jail time - though the real loser was the man next in line with 2 dollars and a hankering to hear Fine Young Cannibals.

A Pirate's Strife for Me :
A Somali man pleaded guilty in a New York courtroom yesterday to hijacking an American ship last year and partaking in pirate activities. The man is looking at serious jail time, while his parrot was able to smooth talk his way to an immunity agreement.

Where Does Depression Hurt? :
The pharmaceutical giant Pfizer has announced plans to layoff as many as 6,000 employees worldwide. They warned that these sudden and unexpected layoffs could lead to fatigue, nausea, headaches, and erections lasting up to 3 hours.
