  • Owner surprised to find cat regularly catches bus 

    The ginger moggy, who was named after the Artful Dodger from Oliver Twist, has taken to hopping on and off the public transport at the bus station near his home.
    The 15-year-old Tom even sits on bemused passengers' laps as the bus makes up to 10 mile round trips from Bridport to Charmouth in Dorset.
    Dodger is such a regular customer that some of the drivers take tins of cat food to work with them to give to him. They even know what stop to let him off at..

  • Vikings are the anti-Packers 

    The Packers have more wins and fewer birthday candles than any other team in the NFC North.

    Counting their active roster and injured reserve, Green Bay has the most players 25 or younger (31), the most players 26 to 29 (26) and by far the fewest players 30 or older (six).

    It's the envious king-of-the-mountain view for a defending Super Bowl champion that possesses both greatness and an unusually high level of corresponding youth.

    The gay and lesbian community of Minnesota has issued a letter of apology to recently resigned Senate Majority Leader Amy Koch for ruining the institution of marriage and causing her to stray from her husband and engage in an "inappropriate relationship."
