GOOGLE-DISNEY TO COPYRIGHT ENGLISH LANGUAGE
In a surprise move, newly formed multimedia conglomerate Google-Disney has filed papers in district court under a recently discovered loophole which would allow them to copyright the English language. If, as expected, the application is accepted, all works in English, whether written, texted, spoken or sung, would become the property of Google-Disney and thus would be subject to license fees to be determined by Google-Disney.

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE NEW YEAR
Dear 2011,
I understand that you look up to 2010 as an older and wiser year, but it is time for the hard truth.
2010 was a jerk.
At the very least 2010 was misanthropic, but I think the true diagnosis would be closer to sociopathic. I think I can speak for my friends and family, certainly for myself when I ask that you consider a kinder and more generous attitude than your predecessor through the next twelve months. We would like to think of you fondly; we would love to think of you with genuine adoration.
Think of it. You could even set an example for the years to come of what a wonderful ride a single course around the sun can be.
Sincerely,
Myles Pinkney
