FYI – I’m stealing the title from Norm Macdonald’s short-lived “Sports Show.”
I spend a lot of my day combing over Twitter, Facebook, and various news sites for possible updates for this blog. Well, that, and I’m huge news nerd. Regardless of the reasoning, I sometimes stumbled across some ridiculous headlines/stories that make me do a double-take.
Yesterday, inbetween the normal boring headlines, I saw this:
GOP rep sorry for nude swim in Sea of Galilee
Wait, what?!
“A GOP freshman congressman from Kansas apologized last night for a nude swim in the Sea of Galilee last summer during an official trip to Israel.
Rep. Kevin Yoder issued a statement after Politico reported the FBI investigated the incident, which included drinking and involved several lawmakers and top congressional aides.
The Sea of Galilee is a holy site to Christians. The Bible says it is where Jesus walked on water.”
