Title: WEIRD IN 2009
Post by: weary1969 on December 15, 2009, 09:32:32 PM
Much of 2009's big news was hardly shocking: The recession lingered. Health care reform was contentious. Lady Gaga pushed the envelope. But when the following stories broke, folks wondered, "What the ...?"

Tiger or Cheetah: What started out as a story about a minor car accident unraveled into a tale of deception, sex and sheer embarrassment for Tiger Woods.

The party crashers: We've all heard of crashing a house party, but when it's the White House all stop and take notice. What were they thinking?

High-altitude hoax: Fortunately, Falcon Heene, who was nicknamed this, wasn't adrift in a runaway balloon. We were duped. Get the latest on his parents' legal woes.

Courvoisier caper? Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift's VMA's acceptance speech (video). Even President Obama was miffed.

Excuses, excuses: Appalachia and Argentina aside, Gov. Mark Sanford's rambling mea culpa was seriously kooky.

Killer reflexes: When a fly irked President Obama during a television interview, he dispatched it with a single smack. 

Fertile folks: As Jon and Kate Gosselin split, their brood competed for attention with "Octomom" Nadya Suleman. The story got even weirder when this rumor surfaced. Oh. Boy.
