In a step to avoid being blocked from competing in the NCAA championships, today the University of Utah has changed their mascot from the historic “Ute” to the running “Jaffa”. As the Jaffa are a race of alien beings that are not from this planet, they stand in no danger of being boycotted by the fair and balanced NCAA sports management office.

Very interesting read. I’ve not even heard of half of these sites. As I didn’t really live in San Francicso, none of them would have been very practical for me.

I got this from work. I use Snopes all the time to validate e-mails, rumors, etc. Unbelievable some of the questions people actually ask.

Dear Tech Support:

Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0. I soon noticed that the new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of space and valuable resources. In addition, Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs and now monitors all other system activity. Applications such as Poker Night 10.3, Football 5.0, Hunting and Fishing 7.5, and Racing 3.6 no longer run, crashing the system whenever selected.

I can’t seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background while attempting to run my favorite applications. I’m thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7.0, but the uninstall doesn’t work on Wife 1.0. Please help!
