You've all heard of the Air Force's ultra-high-security, super-secret base 
in Nevada, known simply as "Area 51?"

Well, late one afternoon, the Air Force folks out at Area 51 were very 
surprised to see a Cessna landing at their "secret" base. They immediately 
impounded the aircraft and hauled the pilot into an interrogation room.

The pilot's story was that he took off from Vegas, got lost, and spotted 
the Base just as he was about to run out of fuel. The Air Force started a 
full FBI background check on the pilot and held him overnight during the 
investigation.

By the next day, they were finally convinced that the pilot really was 
lost and wasn't a spy. They gassed up his airplane, gave him a terrifying 
"you-did-not-see-a-base" briefing, complete with threats of spending the 
rest of his life in prison, told him Vegas was that-a-way on such-and-such 
a heading, and sent him on his way.

The next day, to the total disbelief of the Air Force, the same Cessna 
showed up again. Once again, the MP's surrounded the plane...only this 
time there were two people in the plane.

The same pilot jumped out and said, "Do anything you want to me, but my 
wife is in the plane and you have to tell her where I was last night!"

Slovenia's state-run news agency reported on the death of 
'passionate' fisherman Franc Filipic, 47, who drowned after 
hooking a huge lake sheatfish (like a catfish) and refusing to let 
go as he waded in and was pulled under. Friends reported his 
last words were 'NOW I've got him!'  Divers found his body after
