Get it? “Earthquake,” “unshaken”? ZING BAM POW. Next up: “Haiti? More like CHEETAH!” What, who says you can’t use any of the Tiger Woods puns for other news stories? Anyway, congratulations to Jesus, for pulling off another fast one. [CNN]
Yeah yeah yeah, we know, they’re there for “Meals on Wheels” purposes, as the very sensitive and approving Rush Limbaugh termed it today.

Sorry, was it just yesterday that mean Ken Layne was mocking the AP for being so awful? Correction: Best news source on the planet … any planet. (Thank you tipster donner_froh.) [AP]
Yay it’s your weekly CNN headline funny! Pack up all your worldly belongings, board up the windows, and kiss your nice pets goodbye forever. Hurricane Ike sucked, but it’s nothing compared to this fearsome “Bush,” which destroys literally everything it touches. [CNN]
