Wow, who could have POSSIBLY seen this one coming: Rael is not going to test baby Eve for clone-ness.

According to the story, Rael was being interviewed on Crossfire, and after he said they will not test the baby, he was asked “so was all this just a publicity stunt?” He responded by saying “CKKKCKKCkckck.. ckKCKckckkc… I’m sorry… SHSHSHshshshSHHSHshs… You’re breaking up, I can’t hear you… SHSHSHhshschkckckckCKCKCKckck…”

I don’t think I can possibly sum this up any better than jwz did:

Sorry, kids: Santa Claus died centuries ago, and his bones were stolen by pirates.

Turkish group demands that Italy return St. Nicholas’ bones

The Santa Claus Foundation, based in mainly Muslim Turkey, wants Italy to return the bones of St. Nicholas — the 4th century bishop in the Greek city now called Demre on the Turkish Mediterranean coast. Muammer Karabulut, the group’s chirman, told The Associated Press that the remains of St. Nicholas, from whom the Santa Claus myth emerged, were stolen from what is now Turkey by pirates in the 11th century and taken to Italy.

We went to see Jenny’s sister’s new condo today, she’s moving in this weekend. It’s pretty nice! Right across the street from Lake Compounce, somehow. Our place will feel quiet and possibly a little lonely with her gone, but my bizarre anti-social (like me) friends will be less afraid of coming over to visit.

Now we’re up next to buy a house. Think we can find one before our lease runs out in July?
