  1. 10 Confessions Of An Insurance Telemarketer<\/a> – DO NOT CALL. DO NOT WANT.<\/li>\n
  2. CA Supreme Court: Stores Can’t Ask For ZIP Code When You Pay By Credit Card<\/a> – Wonder if this will spread to other states — and if it covers gas stations.<\/li>\n

  5. 50 Things That Look Like Faces<\/a> – Something to remember the next time someone is claiming that the face of Jesus, or Mary, or Whomever has been spotted on a wall or rock or piece of toast …<\/li>\n
  6. 7-year-old boy wins eBay auction for Harrier jet, dad not happy<\/a> – HA! Can hardly blame him. Harriers rock(ed).<\/li>\n
