Does Kim Jong Un have Ebola?
Is he a member of ISIS?
Is he selling meat on the side of the road in China?
Where’s Dennis Rodman? Is he available for an interview?

North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, who normally revels in the oddities of his profession, has not been seen by the world for 37 days, and the Internet is about to explode. But it’s nothing compared to what will happen Friday if he’s a no-show at the celebration of North Korea’s 69th anniversary....


Misinformation and innuendo is part of the game when it comes to covering and consuming North Korea news. Kim has been reported to have made five hole-in-ones on his first outing playing golf. North Korean scientists are said to have discovered evidence that unicorns exist.

Iknew it! I just knew it!! Unicorns do exist!!!
And, they are respnsible for global waming!

Unicorns don't get no respect!

The thousands of spiders in your house.

Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a colorless and odorless chemical compound, also referred to by some as Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide, or simply Hydric acid. Its basis is the highly reactive hydroxyl radical, a species shown to mutate DNA, denature proteins, disrupt cell membranes, and chemically alter critical neurotransmitters. The atomic components of DHMO are found in a number of caustic, explosive and poisonous compounds such as Sulfuric Acid, Nitroglycerine and Ethyl Alcohol.
Should I be concerned about Dihydrogen Monoxide?
Yes, you should be concerned about DHMO! Although the U.S. Government and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) do not classify Dihydrogen Monoxide as a toxic or carcinogenic substance (as it does with better known chemicals such as hydrochloric acid and benzene), DHMO is a constituent of many known toxic substances, diseases and disease-causing agents, environmental hazards and can even be lethal to humans in quantities as small as a thimbleful.

Is it true that ingesting DHMO can improve my athletic performance? YES!

One technique commonly used by endurance athletes in sports such as distance running and cycling is to take a large amount of DHMO immediately prior to a race. This is known within racing circles to dramatically improve performance.

Sports-medicine physicians warn that ingesting too much Dihydrogen Monoxide can lead to complications and unwanted side-effects, but do acknowledge the link to improved performance. DHMO is not currently considered a banned substance, so post-race urine tests do not detect elevated or abnormal levels of DHMO.

For more information about this deadly dangerous substance see:

Whatever you do, please be really really careful around this dangerous liquid.

Huh? A thimbleful can kill you, but a lot will make you a better runner?

Ooh that nasty DHMO. Let's see what that molecule might look like. One atom of oxygen, and two of hydrogen. Sounds kinda familiar. 1 O and 2 H. Hmm. H 2 and O 1. Let me go get a drink of water and think about it.

Cancer from the tire pellets in artificial turf.

I play on the stuff twice a week. thank goodness I have more sense than to be a keeper.

This makes me sick...My oldest daughter was a keeper and played on this during indoor games all the time. My younger daughter was a field player but still was always dragging those pellets into my car. Unbelievable!

Soccer Can Kill You

"Doctors at a Richmond hospital are keeping a patient in isolation as they try to determine if the person is suffering from Ebola..."

As Michael Che commented (jokingly) on SNL, "...And according to Web MD, you already have it."

"The sun, like all main sequence stars, is getting brighter with time and that affects the Earth's climate," says Dr. James F. Kasting, professor of meteorology and geosciences. "Eventually temperatures will become high enough so that the oceans evaporate."

How is that possible as man is the only cause of climate change?

Everything's going to kill us but one thing's certain: Nothing will kill this thread.

Ha!!!


True.

Wouldn't football players be at the same risk here? I've never heard this one before.

You would think so good point, but what I saw on the news was because goalies are down on the turf so much more it put them at a greater risk, and they only spoke about soccer and no other sport.

Just in time for Halloween - these clowns might scare a person to death, though the rumors of the clowns being armed are just urban myths, I think.

with all the flopping in soccer I would think that the goalkeeper would be the one on the turf the least.
