As Chicken pointed out on Facebook, this is on the anniversary of the "Mission Accomplished" speech. Interesting.

They've been holding on to the info for a while now. It does NOT take 10 days to get a freaking DNA test when you're the government and you're testing someone on the most wanted list.

Apparently, the same day this was made common knowledge here, it was also the same day in 1945 the Germans announced Hitler's death (something I just learned about 10 minutes ago) >.>

I'm cracking up at all the headline typos. Apparently we've all been talking about OBama so long that when we try to shift to OSama we flubber it up! lol

Like Jon Stewart, the thought had crossed my mind that Obama was interrupting Celebrity Apprentice to slam Trump some more.

Speaking of which...if you haven't seen his antics at the correspondent's dinner, check this out...

A more pressing question is how does Edwin Parker Twombly Jr. turn into Cy Twombly? Unless.....he was really a Cylon?!

That would be a resounding no. At least most of my friends on Facebook haven't cared much. She shoulda said "yes" to rehab instead of "no, no, no."

As mentioned in the link, it's interesting to note that Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain also died at 27 from related causes.

Unfortunately it wasn't surprising, but it's still a tragedy to see a life wasted like that.

Not surprised, but kinda bummed. She had so much talent. I feel very sorry for her loved ones.

See, I'm hesitant to believe that. Nothing else is reporting it, AND I can't click anything on that website...

I heard that on the same day that Amy Winehouse died. Not seen any reputable news sources picking it up yet, so I'm not convinced. :p

Aaaaand the small print of that website furthers my suspicion:

THIS STORY IS 100% FAKE! this is an entertainment website, and this is a totally fake article based on zero truth and is a complete work of fiction for entertainment purposes!

Although what kind of person finds fake death reports entertaining is beyond me. :roll:

Jack Layton, the leader of Canada's opposition party (the New Democratic Party), passed away today from his second battle with cancer. It struck swiftly. The last elections weren't that long ago and he was looking and sounding healthy. It's a sad day for Canada as he was a well-respected politician. One of the few.

Surprised no one brought this up: Harry Morgan, best known for playing Col. Potter on the TV show M.A.S.H. died recently.
