I read it, and I could understand all the individual words, and yet regarding the article as a whole I find I am left with next to no comprehension whatsoever. Here is my summary of what I learned:

There is a horrendous space kablooie in Afghanistan. Various famous dead guys are implicated, including Einstein and Zoroaster. Also, Christians are evil, allegedly.

That's it, that's all I got. Although... maybe I'm looking at this website the wrong way. If I treat it as some guy's collection of RPG plot ideas... then this is actually pretty neat! :-D

Victory through superior imagination!

Yes! Or at least get to sit in on a staff meeting at least once. Can you imagine?

"Okay, guys, what have you got for me this week?"

"Well, Chief, I've been working on this follow-up story where the mutant cats on Mars have kittens..."

"And Batboy delivers them! Yes! Perfect! I love it! Now go photoshop some kitten pics and have it on my desk by Tuesday."

"Right, Chief!"

Awesome.

	During the Jayson Blair plagiarism thing over at the New York Times, the gang at Wait Wait Don't Tell Me called the editor-in-chief of the WWN for comment. "Well, it's obviously a very serious story for all of us in the journalism world." "Could Jayson Blair apply for a job with you guys?" "First he has a lot to learn about ethics and honesty."
