Canada’s Tax Agency is ordering a review of its computer system called Secure Channel because of potential problems with it not being secure. The system cost $600 million but that could easily rise up to a billion. Hmmm isn’t that interesting… and no one at the tax agency thought that hiring the same company that installed the gun registry’s billion dollar computer system… was a bad idea WHY? That’s because the rest of aren’t smart enough for government work.

Firefighters in some Connecticut communities are being trained how to get horses out of a burning barn and one of the most important things is to close the barn doors once they’re out so they don’t run back in!

This week Clint Eastwood will unveil his new film Flags of Our Fathers at the Tokyo Film Festival. The movie is about the bloody World War Two battle between U.S. and Japanese forces on the island of Iwo Jima. It was shot in Iceland, which apparently looks a lot like Iwo Jima except for the snow and the no Japanese people.

A study of people in Britain and the U.S. has found that taller people make more money. As a matter of fact on average they make $800 U.S. more per year for every extra inch in height they have. Apparently they studied only NBA players and midget wrestlers???
