Cracked, but not yet Breaking, News

Okay, has anyone else noticed that Rooney Mara, star of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," looks like a reincarnation of silent film star Louise Brooks ("Lulu," "Pandora's Box"). Huh?

BC Finance Minister Kevin Falcon delivered the provincial budget today. In the spirit of restraint, he skipped the tradition of buying a new pair of shoes. Several observers thought, however, he might have sprung for a new haircut.

Chinese and Russian governments, standing firmly behind the vicious if nerdy looking Syrian leader, said, "So he's killing his own people. What's the big deal?"

Finally, Rooney Mara's performance in "The Social Network" was so pleasurable, we are pulling for her to win the big one on Sunday, even though she is facing the formidable Meryl Streep and Viola Davis. Academy voters, please note.
