IT TAKES ALL KINDS:

THIS CAN’T BE GOOD
Dutch students say they have invented an alcohol powder that when mixed with water turns to a beverage. And it’s legal for teens. For now. A bubbly, lime-colored and -flavored drink with just 3 percent alcohol content. Legal drinking age in the Netherlands is 16.

DON’T CALL THEM WATER CLOSETS
When the Olympics hit Beijing in 2008, the restrooms will NOT be called Water Closets (or W.C.’s) "Because in English, it's equivalent (W.C.) to what we would call in China an outhouse, and is a rather crude slang term." That according to state media. What’s the new better term? Toilet

YUMMY! IT’S CRICKET PLAGUE TIME AGAIN
The annual cricket infestation has begun and Cambodians couldn’t be happier. It seems the creatures are considered a delicacy so this time of year is a veritable grab it out of the air feast.

ANOTHER BIG DIAMOND
Diamonds State Park, Arkansas you can hunt for diamonds and keep what you find, like Nicole Ruhter. She found a 2.93 carat rock on Tuesday.

I CAN’T SING THIS
The Spanish National anthm is an instrumental, but many athletes say they want words to sing with it. So, there is a bill being introduced to put words to the anthem. That should be a touchy revision to one of the world’s oldest National Anthems. Former Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar asked a group of poets and writers to come up with lyrics a few years ago but nobody could agree what they should be.

DOG STARING IS LEGAL
A woman got into an argument with an officer who said she smelled of alcohol so he wouldn’t take a statement until she was sober. That upset the woman so she went up to a police cruiser and had a stare down with a police dog. Arrested. Charges? Cruelty to a police animal. Charges dropped.
