What's New?

Everybody is getting into the blogging act: The Annals of Improbable Research now has a blog! Certified better than anything that has Huffington in the title.

But wait, there's more: The Urban legends Reference Page has one too, only they don't call it one, the call it weird news/Daily Snopes. And in honor of Dodd, here's the skinny on the name change of Ken***y Fried Chicken to KFC: It has nothing to do with the stated reason, namely that fried was associated with unhealthy among Americans, but that the state of Ken***y trademarked the name to raise money and was going to force KFC to pay royalties for its use. No you know why I didn't use the full name of the state.
