 I can't believe this day has finally come. Do you 
                          feel it? I feel it. God, I'm hungry. I 
                          can't remember the last time I had a shower. 
                          When 
                          this is all over, I'm gonna mate. 
                          Finally 
                          challenge is in the air.   
                          I 
                          could eat a horse, hooves and all. I'm glad there's 
                          no kids around to see this. To think, all I used to 
                          wanna do is sell insurance. I 
                          don't feel anything anymore. Sometimes I dream about 
                          cheese. This is bullshit!  Ugh, I think I ate something 
                          bad. When this is all over, I... ah, who am I kidding? 
                          Some day this will all be a bad memory. You smell that? 
                          It's freedom.

                          2:30 PM GMTArafat's death: too close to call
 75-year-old Palestinian leader Yassir Arafat may 
                          or may not have succumbed today in a battle with death 
                          that most experts are deeming "too close to call". 
                          After being admitted to a French hospital in serious 
                          condition last week, Arafat's condition has gone downhill, 
                          suffering a brain hemorrhage and slipping into a coma. 
                          On Saturday, Fox News was the first to project Arafat's 
                          death based on exit interviews with French doctors. 
                          Then on Monday, Fox rescinded their projection, putting 
                          Arafat back into the "living" column after 
                          many Palestinians demanded a recount of Arafat's pulse. 
                          Other networks are taking a more cautious approach, 
                          listing Arafat's status as "insufficient data".

                          expected
 Polling 
                          stations across the US are gearing-up today for the 
                          slight reduction in massive American voter apathy that 
                          is expected to occur in today's election. "The 
                          percentage of eligible voters who don't vote might be 
                          close to 40% this year," said election analyst 
                          Jane Delorme, "usually it's about 50%." Precincts 
                          are preparing themselves with a slight increase in the 
                          number of poll workers to be on hand today, as well 
                          as the occasional use of an extra voting booth. Although 
                          shaping up to a another presidential race so close it 
                          could be decided by mere thousands of votes, more than 
                          80 million Americans of voting age are expected not 
                          to vote.
