Billie Holiday sang a song called “Strange Fruit,” about lynchings in the south, with black bodies hanging from trees.

Well, there’s a black neighborhood in northern Ohio where white bodies fall out of the sky.

I am not making this up.

Forty percent of Frenchmen would like to become pregnant.

It must be part of that Gallic genius thing.

The freepers are having a great time with this.

It’s not for nothing that couvade is a French word.

I also like the picture of a worried-looking John Kerry with the caption “My clock is ticking.”

A man caught fire and died (though not from the fire) during surgery.

LGF has more details about the airport incident.
