Newly Discovered Trench In Loch Ness Is Just The Right Size For A Monster
A boat captain in Scotland claims to have discovered a previously unknown trench at the bottom of Loch Ness that’s more than 100 feet deeper than the loch’s official depth.
Keith Stewart of Jacobite, a company that runs sightseeing cruises, even claims to have had a possible Nessie sighting on sonar.
“I wasn’t really a believer of the monster beforehand,” Stewart told the Scotsman, “But two weeks ago, I got a sonar image of what looked like a long object with a hump lying at the bottom. It wasn’t there when I scanned the loch bed later.”

Frustrated Rick Santorum Still Waiting For Go-Ahead From God To Suspend Presidential Campaign
CHARLESTON, SC—Expressing frustration that he had yet to receive any divine counsel on the matter, former Senator Rick Santorum told reporters Friday that he was still waiting for the go-ahead from God to suspend his presidential campaign.

I really should have received His word, or at least some divine sign by now. I’ll just give God until the South Carolina primary and then I’m going to have to do some serious reevaluating.” …
At press time, God confirmed that He figured Santorum had already dropped out of the presidential race several months ago.
