Economy
Market research has shown that when the economy is suffering, lipstick sales actually increase. Apparently, even men start buying it to secure their jobs.

According to a new survey by the Pew Social and Demographic Trends Project, more Americans would rather have more free time than money. If the economy continues slowing, their wish will be granted pretty soon.

Hillary
Hillary Clinton dismissed the comparisons that several people made between her and Eight Belles, the horse that finished second at the Kentucky Derby. Apparently, Hillary claims her ankles are much stronger than the horse’s.

McCain
John McCain unveiled yesterday a website only in Spanish to try to capture the Latino vote. The presidential candidate was proud to say he wrote everything in the site because he was fortunate enough to have taken Spanish lessons with Christopher Columbus.

Obama
Inside Edition did a report about Obama’s childhood and said that as a kid Obama was an avid kite flyer. Fox News took the tape and said that that’s clear evidence Obama was training to attack American buildings.

March
Marihuana supporters organized a march this weekend. Unfortunately, the march took longer than expected as they stopped at every little store to buy junk food for the munchies.

Smart
According to a new study, children who were exclusively breast fed for at least the first three months of life are smarter than those who didn’t. Actually, the smartest are the ones than can still breast feed at the age of 25.

Watch
A luxury watch manufacturer called Urwerk has developed the world's first wind-powered watch. The only difficulty with the watch is to see the time because you have to wear it near your rear end.

Eagle
A team of volunteers is working to attach an artificial beak to an Eagle so she can hunt her own food. Male eagles were mad; not only she will put on some pounds but also she’ll talk a lot more.
