Segment 1:
A small Texas town gets the national moon bat spotlight as residents there claim they have seen UFOs. Everything’s bigger in Texas, of course, so these mysterious objects are more than half-a-mile wide! Do you think there’s video of this anywhere? No. Any official evidence to support it? No. A fricken PHOTO? Nope. Some guy that watched it through his sniper rille and took a few parting shots? Absolutely!
A network of super computers coming online between the U.S., Australia, the UK, Canada and New Zealand used to better keep track of potential terror threats and store massive amounts of information… how could that possibly be a bad thing?
Not just morally bankrupt… Mike Nifong getting a little payback–pardon the pun. The prosecutor who faced disbarment after his rigorous attempt to jail several member of the Duke University Lacrosse team on trumped up rape charges is now facing bankruptcy. Really, it couldn’t happen to a more deserving “human being”.

Segment 2:
Where was this teacher when I was in 8th grade? Just another fine example of America’s public educators giving some extra credit to a student.
The $2,500 car has been introduced, the 3-meter long death box seats four not-so-comfortably and has a top speed of 65 mph (provided it’s going downhill and has a jet engine strapped to it). The Tata Nano is described as the worlds most inexpensive car and was apparently the brainchild of a guy that saw a toaster and thought it would be cool to add wheels and a rear engine. …okay it is a really cool looking toaster.
Lance Bass comes out of the closet… oh you mean he was in one to begin with?
Ken Jennings, the Salt Lake City software geek who won 74-straight games on Jeopardy! and cashed out with more than $2.5 million now has a few barbs to throw at the quiz show.

Segment 3:
In 2005, a fad began in the UK among youths known as “happy-slapping”. Proving once again that there’s little hope for future generations.
A study finds that it really is true what they say… mom’s really do believe their baby’s crap doesn’t stink.
It wouldn’t be a “Best Of” show without a story involving homeowners that have at least 30 animals living in one home; naturally the living conditions are complete squalor and the home is a health hazard, police are called in and as a cute bonus a five year old child is lost in the disgusting mess.
The Insane Clown Posse have real good fan representation. In a related story, the Insane Clown Posse still exist!
