Big announcement from NASA the other day. The Mars Rover found a rock. No big surprise there, if there’s one thing Mars has a lot of, it’s rocks. But this is no ordinary rock, ladies and gentlemen. This rock has evidence on its surface that water once existed atop it. There is water on Mars! Or should I say, there was water on Mars. As Jon Stewart points out, this leads to the inevitable conclusion that Mars once had waterparks. Next thing we know, the Mars Rover will send back photos of a Slip ‘N Slide.

As we get excited about amusement parks on Mars, there’s lots of tumult going on in the Disney empire. Michael Eisner was stripped of his Chairman position by the stockholders and he is being replaced by George Mitchell. Yes, George Mitchell, the former Senator and broker of the Irish Peace Accords. Is there anything the man doesn’t do?

Funny but true story from the Daily News...
THREE SENIORS HURT IN SALAD-BAR SLUGFEST
There’s nothing like a good old fashioned food fight. Just ask any kid in junior high school and the old folks at Spring Haven Retirement Community.
A brawl over the salad bar send three seniors to the hospital during the weekend.
Words were exchanged when a 62-year old man spent a little too much time picking through the greens. He “only likes a certain kind of lettuce,” said his 80-something mom, who also lives at the home.
When the other folks at the home berated the man, he punched an 86-year old in the nose and bit a 78-year old man on the right arm, the News Chief newspaper reported yesterday.
The lettuce picker has now been evicted. “This is the first time in 25 years I’ve ever heard of something like this happening,” said Jill Andrew, spokeswoman for the facility.

Susan Hawk is going to be the next one eliminated from “Survivor”. Take that to the bank.
