Whacky news for veterans' entertainment

I am usually pretty serious on this web site, but every now and then I like to lighten things up.  We are people you know and people need to take things a little light sometimes!  So here we go.  I submit these news stories to tickle your curiousity and lighten things up a bit. We cannot be serious all the time!

Lets start with the Mayan Calendar and the End of the World in 2012.  You cannot beat that for light news fare, eh?  NASA has now completely debunked this Mayan Calendar ‘end of the world link".  Here it is.

Lets move on to a video of Champ, the Lake Champlain monster.  Lake Champlain is in Vermont, New York and Canada.  Champ is a sort of North American version of the Loch Ness monster.  Somebody somewhere has submitted a short video that they just shot of the monster.  Here he is for your pre-Halloween enjoyment.

NASA has just reported finding a real big hole in the Moon which apparently leads to an even bigger hole deep inside the Moon.  This is important because NASA needs a place where astrounauts can hide from space radiation if we even stay on the Moon long enough for that to matter.  The story is here.

Here is a story of a UFO incident involving a police officer in Wiltshire, England on July 6th of this year.  He saw aliens and they were over six foot tall and blonde.  They ran away quickly when they noticed him. Its’ really funny, but tall blonde women have done the exact same thing to me during my entire lifetime.  I wonder….

Now here is a story that will set your old high school English teacher on fire! It seems that someone has used plagiarism software to investigate Shakespeare’s plays and found that he has definitely plagiarized works of a famous playwright of his day, Thomas Kyd.  Here is an excerpt from that article:

"Sir Brian Vickers, an authority on Shakespeare at the Institute of English Studies at the University of London, believes that a comparison of phrases used in The Reign of King Edward III with Shakespeare’s early works proves conclusively that the Bard wrote the play in collaboration with Thomas Kyd, one of the most popular playwrights of his day."

Here is an article from the New York Times outlining the strange behavior of the CIA which is trying at every turn to halt declassification of hundreds of documents concerning the Kennedy Assassination. Researchers all find this very odd.  Too much effort is going into this and they wonder why this is the case.  Hmmmm!

Just some stuff I found on the internet that is a little different.  I thought you might find it interesting.
