me and a friends of mine (usually when sat in work bored) often email silly, random News reports to each other.
anyway, just thought I'd share them with you as you might find them funny.

TALL MEN FIND EATING ELDEBERRIES EASIER
In ground-breaking research held in the Swedish town of Solna, a study group have concluded that tall men find eating eldeberries easier than driving a camper van filled with grapefruit off the edge of an aspirin.
Fifteen of the tallest men in Sweden were carefully selected from a group of seven girls to take part in the four-minute long exercise.
The study group called themselves the "Norkopping Collective", in reference to the fact that none of them actually come from Norkopping. In fact only one of them has ever been to Norkopping.
After years of preparation, the Norkopping Collective were able to go ahead with their minutes of research.
Frodo Codsson-Raspberry, leader of the study group was enthused.
"We pained over then selection process of our research group, and came up with only the select tall men from a group of girls. We debated the decision over a crispy biscuit selection made in a nearby farm. The biscuits were very nice with a pot of coffee or with a swig of locally produced pear and cheese cider."
The full data on the Norkopping Collective's findings can be found in the May 1988 issue of Science For Those With Knees.
BRAD PITT REALLY IS A JOBBER
Meanwhile in Montana, businessmen gathered for the 14th annual meeting of The Order Of The Jobbers.
Several Z-List celebrities were put forward for this prestigious award, such as Pete Burns, Gazza, Preston from The Ordinary Boys etc, but a Hollywood B-Lister received the main prize.
First recognised on the track E=MC You're Dead from Pie's seminal debut album Orange In A Cemetery, Brad Pitt won the Jobber Lifetime Achievement award for 2005.
A spokesman for Mr Pitt offered these words to sum up Brad's joy of winning such a high-ranking award:
"Schnoooffff aaaaaaahhhhh"
We stood on his foot and pushed him down the stairs.
There's only one thing the Squirrel World News hates more than a total jobber - a total jobber who is subordinate to a total jobber.
THE DARKNESS DISCOVERED DEAD IN A BOWL OF CEREAL
Kellog's executive directors were trembling at the prospect of a multi-million dollar lawsuit, after the abomination that is The Darkness were all found dead in a giant bowl of Corn Flakes.
It was assumed the band, I say band in the loosest use of the term, were taking a break from shooting the video to a carpet warehouse advertisement, instead they suffered a serious cereal mishap.
The Darkness' manager, Rupert Theodore Handgrenade-Bogey, stated "Kellogs need not worry - there will be no charges brought against them. If anything they deserve a medal for ridding us of such a bag of pants"
Kellogs are to release a special edition Corn Flakes box bearing the motto "Eat us or we'll eat you".
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It is also obviously real. Homie.

WORLD FOOTBALL SUFFERS MIDFIELDER SHORTAGE HORROR
Teams across the globe are facing increasingly more difficult selection problems this week, as it is revealed that Tottenham Hotspur are on the verge of signing their 12,876th midfielder of the day.
Having already bought Nigel Reo-Coker, Jermaine Pennant, Darren Fletcher, Joey Barton, Maniche, Joe Cole, Frank Lampard, Patrick Viera, Bryan Robson, Dietmar Hamman, Jermaine Jenas (even though he's already their player), Mark Kinsella, Stilian Petrov, Xabi Alonso, Jay-Jay Okocha, Steven Gerrard, Paul Gascoigne, Marc Van Bommel, Robbie Savage, Stefan Fiore, Julio Arca, Dean Whitehead, David Dunn, Ryan Giggs, Thomas Gravesen, Stephen Reid, Jamie Redknapp, Gilberto Silva, Robert Pires, Eric Djemba-Djemba, Emre, Gary Speed, Matt Holland, Papa Bouba Diop, Claude Makelele, Sean Davis, Tim Cahill, Dennis Wise, Morten Gamst Pedersen, Claudio Reyna, Zoltan Gera, Lee Hendrie, Steed Malbranque, Alan Thompson, Nolberto Solano, Ronnie Wallwork, Muzzy Izzet, David Beckham, Trevor Sinclair, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Damien Johnson, Michael Essien and Simon Davies this morning alone, Tottenham moved swiftly to secure the services of Arsenal's Spanish midfielder Cesc Fabregas.
Tottenham's director of vacuum-cleaning commented "We are working hard towards opening the world's first goalkeeping academy for midfielders. Hopefully out of the midfielders we retrain as goalkeepers, at least one will be any good. The rest will be consigned to obscurity playing for our under-7's B side."
This has a knock-on effect for other clubs, obviously.
In the recent game between Manchester United and Arsenal, United's midfield consisted of a central due of Gary Neville, Mikael Silvestre with Tim Howard on the left and Gabriel Heinze (with his broken leg) on the right.
Arsenal didn't come off much better with Jens Lehman and Pascal Cygan in the middle, Philippe Senderos on the left and the club groundsman, Dennis Mongoose, on the right.
FIFA are considering taking sanctions against Tottenham's transfer activity.
JUSSI JAASKELAINEN IN ROAD RAGE HORROR
Bolton's Finnish keeper, Jussi Jaaskelainen, was detained for several days in a maximum security prison for shouting "Jelly is good" at a small rock.
Although the rock is believed to be in good spirits, the judge due to sentence Jaaskelained revealed that a harsh punishment is to be expected.
"I would expect a minimum sentence of 406 years, with the option to lose an ear"
Rumours that Jaaskelainen is to take the new post of Tottenham's head coach of the goalkeeping academy for midfielders was proved to be unfounded.
Nicky Butt took up the role yesterday.
