Amazing Tabloid!

This is definitely one of the best publications on the market today. Every tuesday I can count on a barrell full of laughs thanks to the Weekly World News arriving in my mailbox!
Weekly World News has a variety of unpredictable and incredibly hilarious stories. Here's a sampler of some recent headlines

"Noah's Ark found on Mars!"

"Moon will hit Earth in five years!"

"CIA using cats as secret agents!"

"Scientists mix dog and cat to create the Dat!"

"Real reason for war in Iraq: Bush wanted to protect the Garden of Eden from Saddam"

"Dolphins are growing arms and legs"("If they learn to walk and make weapons, they would become a formidable foe for all mankind" we are warned)

Of course every few months you can always count on some new story about Bigfoot or the Lock Ness Monster(the latest theory: It's actually a giant duck and the reason recent attempts to find it with sonar were unsucessful were that the monster had migrated south for the winter!) About a month ago WWN actually got an exclusive interview with a real-live bigfoot! It spoke in sign language but luckily they had a sign language translator on hand for the interview(phew! that was close!) Some startling revelations were made in this interview, among them that the bigfoots refer to themselves as "The Happy Forest People", they live in another dimension but won't tell us how they cross from dimension-to-dimension, and that the only reason they come to our dimension is to get Twinkies! They also believe Halle Berry with her "perfectly symmetrical facial features and well-rounded teats" is a hideous creature.

Then of course there's Bat Boy, the famous face of Weekly World News. Bat Boy is everywhere folks. Turns out he's the one who really found Saddam's hole, and that he's the leading candidate to get on John Kerry's vice presidential ticket!

Throw in Hillary's space alien boyfriend, the amazing psychic sisters, a weekly horoscope complete with lucky lotto numbers, an advice column, and the classic conservative Ed Anger, and you've got yourself one hell of a publication!

Gotta be the best tabloid out there!

I know you've been in supermarkets waiting in line to checkout, and that your eyes have strayed over the covers of the tabloids. There's the ones that talk about how the latest celebrities are doing in Hollywood, and then there's the World Weekly News.

This is a classic tabloid--definitely what tabloids were meant me be. In these wonderfully black and white pages, you have articles declaring the location of heaven, "Dear Abby" type letters replied to by psychics, and--of course--you have some of the expected stories about the Loch Ness monster and Bigfoot.

This is entertainment to the core. They're fun to read and share with your friends. And just think, with this great subscription value, you'll have a World Weekly News delivered to your mailbox every week for a whole year! Constant leisure and hilarity! What are you waiting for?

My Ex-Wife's Face Keeps Appearing On My Toast!

For sheer unadulterated entertainment value, the creative comedy of the "Weekly World News" is difficult to beat. Although it is a bit embarrassing to be spotted reading this nonsense, there is nothing in any other weekly magazine that can generate the laughs of the "WWN".

In just one issue (June 14, 2004) there was not only the headline "My Ex-Wife's Face Keeps Appearing On My Toast!" (which had a sub-head that reads "...and she's making my life crumby!"), but also (selected by opening to random pages): "Bush To Use Bigfoot G.I.s In Iraq!"; "Vampires Picket Blood Bank!" (for refusing to let them make withdrawals); "Invasion From Outer Space" (a weekly variation of this is a given); "NASA Idiots Turn Mars Rovers Into Battlebots"; "I Became A Porn Star To Pay For Mom's Face-Lift!"; "New House Pet: Chupacabras"; and my favorite for the week: "Psychic Cat Makes Predictions In Kitty Litter." All this and of course a raving editorial from Ed Anger, lots of horoscope and psychic lunacy, and the ever cantankerous "Dear Dotti" feature, in which readers solicit advice on subjects such as these: "The man of my dreams grunts like a pig when we ride the bus"; "I'm tired of living with my boyfriend's mother", and "My big, ugly feet make my husband want to throw up!" Generally you can expect excellent coverage of the Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, Elvis, UFOs, and Bat-Boy as well.

Of course it's all a load of rubbish, but after reading stuff like 'The Economist', or 'The Wall Street Journal', it is sure a satisfying change of pace.
