In a separate poll, this century was chosen as the only one of this millennium. NO HOLIDATE MOVIES? Hey, didja notice that there's no big Hollywood romantic comedy out for the holidays? (No "Re: You've Got Mail: [2].") Unless you count "End of Days," I guess, in which Satan comes to New York to find a bride. (...by 6 PM on his 30th birthday = "End of Bachelor Days.") BIG HAIR/FOOT? Searchers are reportedly hot on the trail of a red-haired, corn-eating, ape-like beast lurking in China's Shennongjia Nature Reserve. I think it's Carrot Top. BEETS ARE MURDER. The Chick-Fil-A chain has begun offering a special version of Veggie Tales storybooks with their childrens' meals. Now kids are saying vegetables are too cute to eat. REAL WORLD: BUNKER.

Someone get one for DotComGuy. WOMEN LIVE LONGER? By seven years, according to the World Health Organization. Or maybe we just lie about our age.
