Chuck Norris and Walmart: It’s a Wacky 2008 ALREADY!
So I’m browsing The Consumerist looking for rip-off alerts and I come across these two excellent posts that prove that 2008 is going to be a bang up year:
Woman Asked To Leave After Shopping At Walmart For 72 Hours
Police escorted a woman home after she was shopping, eating, and sleeping in a Georgia Walmart for three days straight. She blended in with the general Christmas madness and sustained herself by eating at the on-site Blimpie. When asked by employees at the end why she stayed for so long, she said, “I’m shopping.”

Chuck Norris: “I Can’t Do All That Stuff”
Chuck Norris is suing publisher Penguin and author Ian Spector over the book “The Truth About Chuck Norris: 400 facts about the World’s Greatest Human”. Among other claims, the suit states that the “book’s title would mislead readers into thinking the facts were true.” This means that apparently Chuck Norris cannot cure your cancer with his tears, he did not create a giraffe by uppercutting a horse, and he cannot speak braille. If only Kevin Trudeau could be so honest.
