The Reelz channel finally aired the eight-part mini-series titled "The Kennedys," which had been rejected by the major cable channels for historical inaccuracies.  Producers cleverly left the door open for a sequel.  In the final scene, Lee Harvey Oswald misses.
 
Latest addition to the Las Vegas Strip is the new "Museum of Organized Crime," a tribute to the mobsters who founded the desert oasis.  Along with exhibits, visitors get tickets to a lounge show entitled "Hallelujah Bugsy Siegel!"

WakiLeaks: History Declassified 2000 (Vol. One) is now available on Kindle for $2.99

Compiled from Bob's newsletter "Funnyside Up" published in 2000.
