Law and Order: Special Birthmark Unit

The Supreme Court voted 8-to-1 that a school's strip search of an Arizona teenage girl accused of having prescription-strength ibuprofen was illegal, with Justice Clarence Thomas being the only dissenter.

Swine flu cases in England have forced some Roman Catholic churches to temporarily stop sharing Communion wine. Local priests are reluctant to ban the wine-sharing unless their altar boys suddenly start sneezing.

Cleveland and Phoenix have agreed to a deal that will send Shaquille O'Neal to the Cavaliers to play with LeBron James next season. Nike has already ordered a truckload of foam rubber and 100 yards of felt to start making a Shaq puppet.

Farmers legally growing opium poppies in Tasmania say wallabies are getting high on the poppies and hopping around in circles, creating crop circles. On the positive side, the sight of drug-crazed kangaroos has transformed many Tasmanian devils into angels.

Archeologists say a bird-bone flute unearthed in a German cave was carved some 35,000 years ago and is the oldest handcrafted musical instrument yet discovered. Some things never change. The instrument was found near drawings of cavemen throwing spears at the flute-player.

It looks like South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford’s affair has ended his chances of running for president as a Republican. His only chance is to prove he was introduced to his mistress by Sarah Palin.

South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford is starting to sound a little desperate. Today Sanford apologized for the way he treated Aunt Esther.

Officials with the Brooklyn Museum say a CT scan performed on an Egyptian mummy thought to be Lady Hor revealed the remains have a penis and are probably not of a woman. This could explain why Ann Coulter has cancelled all book signings at the museum.
