QUEEN OF WINGS!
How many chicken wings could you eat at one sitting? 181? For your sake, I hope not.
Well there's one woman who can do it, and she did this weekend. Here's the story from the Associated Press...
NEW YORK, N.Y. - The Black Widow of eating contests gobbled up nearly 181 chicken wings in 12 minutes, devouring the national championship record in Buffalo on Sunday.
"I'm so happy!" said Sonya Thomas, who ate 4.86 pounds of chicken wings to win the contest, besting world eating marvel Joey Chestnut at the ninth annual National Buffalo Wing Festival.
Buffalo is said to be the birthplace of the wings, typically fried and covered in tangy vinegar and hot sauce.
Chestnut, America's No. 1 professional eater, was favoured to win Sunday's competition. He came in second after eating 169 chicken wings, or 4.55 pounds.

Hey hey!
Great news! The smoking baby has kicked the habit!
Remember this?
Oh man that hilarious in a really sick way.
Anyhoo, here's the story from the Associated Free Press today...

"He has quit smoking and the most important thing is he doesn't ask for cigarettes anymore," national commission for child protection secretary-general Arist Merdeka Sirait told AFP.
