But it's a different story if it's true than if it's not.

Thank you! I was immediately suspicious when the "Crime Editor" was named "Rob Banks"

And if you like those sorts of spoofs, go to Facebook and look up the "Lake Michigan Whale Migration Station"

You may need some/all of that beer in light of the simple fact that stupidity is the only truly unlimited resource the human race has. In obvious abundance.

So, yeah, no doubt a fictional tale about the level that stupidity can reach, but never bet it is impossible.
