Its 2009! Happy New Year!

What better way/day to start a new blog than to start it on the first day of a new year. My new year's resolution is to build this blog into the most respected source of news among all news media. This blog will surpass the likes of CNN, MSNBC, BBC news, etc... in terms of credibility, respectablity, readability, biasbility(probably not even a real word, just trying to maintain parallell structure), and popularity. *sarcasm* Well without further ado, the following are the top news of the day:

Senior Hamas leader killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza
Cuba celebrates 50th anniversary of Castro revolution
Baby girl born on US-bound flight

And last but not least...
Charles Barkley arrested on suspiction of DUI
The funny thing about the Barkley story is that he was speeding because he was in a hurry to receive oral sex from an unnamed female. There are only 3 main points to this story you need to know:

1. Charles Barkley was speeding because he was in a hurry to get some lovin'
2. A handgun was found in his car, but for some reason noone seems to be making a big deal out of it.
3. Barkley reportedly told a police employee that he would "tattoo your name on my ass" if he would drop the DUI charges.

Barkley was definitely true to his words when he said he's not a role model.
