The Sudden Death of Funky Town
"I remain unconvinced by these results"
- John Taylor, a retired expert in Near Eastern archaeology at the British Museum(and not that guy from Duran Duran)
I'd be a little more inclined to believe the following story had it not appeared in The Daily Mail alongside a piece about Posh Beckham's mum's 60th birthday party (I guess my invitation got lost in the mail) and another stellar piece of journalism about an child protege (as opposed to a geriatric protege?) who became a hooker, but it would appear - again, according to the Daily Mail - that a pair of researchers have translated a clay tablet which describes the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah by an asteroid.
On the other hand, it looks like The Times also picked up the story. But, then again, so did Fox Noise

Looks like Madonna (I'll just call her "Mad" for short) is finally getting back to her Detroit roots. Hmm, publicity stunt, she's looking for work. I'll bet she's about to drop the fake accent for a while, move back to Michigan, start dating Kid Rock, sucker-punch Jack White at a club, and once the tabloids have gotten the public wet enough, she'll release Live From 8 Mile featuring rap battles against Aaliyah and Ray Parker Jr.
Jack, you're living in the most exciting city on Earth right now.
