I got a copy of the New York Post today.  Don’t usually get a hardcopy of a NYC newspaper, so that was kind of interesting.  One of the things that struck me was the volume of unusual stories, including stories about:

• A bus rider who attacked the driver for driving too slow
• A woman accused of robbery spending seven months in jail despite being in a different state at the time of the robberies
• Three city welfare workers who created 1,500 fake poor people in order to scam food stamps
• Keith Richards having killed an orchid
• Someone who robbed a store getting caught because he was recognised by an employee as a frequent customer
• A hawk with a Facebook page and a paparazzo

…and so on. When you think about it though, New York City has a lot more people than my city, so it’s only natural that a lot of weird things are going to happen there every day. So, one could conclude that in a world of over 6 billion people, there are going to be a lot of very weird things happening every day. What would the contents of a world newspaper be?
