Don't forget the National Inquirer.  If it weren't for scanning the front 
page of that paper while standing in line at the supermarket a few months 
ago, I would never have known that Saddam Hussein had been training an army 
of dinosaurs with which he planned to wage war against the United States.  
Which, for the uninformed among you, was the real reason we went to war.
