The U.S. military shot down the suspected Chinese surveillance balloon that had been flying across the country for days. The Chinese said it was just a “Civilian Airship that accidentally drifted off course”.

- Of course if was!! Kind of like Covid was just a Civilian Virus that accidentally drifted out of that lab in Wuhan.

The balloon was reportedly shot down by a single missile fired from a US fighter jet.

- But today… is National Chop Sticks Day (True!) so it’s POSSIBLE that instead of a missile, we brought down the balloon using a Giant Chop Stick.

Dr. Anthony Fauci is facing backlash after it was revealed that he is charging up to $100,000 for speaking engagements. Fauci is described by his agent agent as "A man who can alter the course of Human Existence”

- It's true. Fauci's like a really short Super Hero... He flies in, saves the day... and people are like "Who was that Masked Man??"

Madonna was all but unrecognizable at last night's Grammy Awards... with fans flooding social media with concerns that she might have finally had too much plastic surgery on her face.

- How tight is her skin? Let's just say when she tried to smile, her panty hose rode up and accidentally gave her a wedgie.

A new study claims drivers of Mini Coopers have higher IQs than everyone else on the road… while owners of Land Rovers, Fiats, and BMWs were found to have lower than average IQ scores.

- If owning a Mini Cooper means you’re smart… I’m gonna do one better and get me one of those MAXI-Coopers! Then I can join Mensa!!!

A growing number of lawmakers, business leaders, and academics are pushing for the U.S. to embrace a 4-day work week...that would allow employees to work 32 hours instead of 40 without losing any pay or benefits.

- So far, the only company against it is the T.G.I.F. Restaurant Chain which says it doesn’t want to have to pay to re-do all of its signs to read "Thank God It's Thursday".

Have a great day and I’ll see you back here Tuesday!
