Via Pharyngula:
When Polish student Michael Gromek, 19, went to America on a student exchange, he found himself trapped in a host family of Christian fundamentalists. What followed was a six-month hell of dawn church visits and sex education talks as his new family tried to banish the devil from his soul.(For the record, 'Christian fundamentalist' is
not synonymous with that sort of behaviour - I know several who are charming hosts and would sooner invite their guests to play Call of Cthulhu than badger them about religion.)

cleolinda,
this story:"O.J. Simpson, in his own words, tells for the first time how he would have committed the murders if he were the one responsible for the crimes," the network said in a statement. "In the two-part event, Simpson describes how he would have carried out the murders he has vehemently denied committing for over a decade."(Does anybody need me to tell them which network is screening this 'event'? No, I didn't think so.)
