I lived in Eugene Oregon while in college, the lead news story one night was a pickup with a trailer had a flat tire on the I-5.

- anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+27This could be the start of a whole new meme, "More at 11". I'm liking it.
- radu79, on 10/12/2007, -2/+27Sometimes I wonder, did a cat ever die from being stuck in a tree? I mean, if left alone and not helped in any way. If so, then I guess the cats would be extinct pretty soon.

- gravytop, on 10/12/2007, -1/+17I'm from Sacramento, and I still remember this suspense-filled teaser from a news ad of about 20 years ago, 4th of July; I'm not making this up:
Next up: how uncooked hot dogs can make you sick -- and what YOU can do to prevent it...
uh... soak them in disinfectant? top them with pennicillin? Honey turn on the betamax, we can't miss this... - elnerdo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16Your children may be drowning at this very moment! More at 11!

The laws of Quantum Physics suggests that 2 separate universes will then branch off from each other at 11:00 pm and follow their own separate independent destinys:
one universe in which the news reports that the cat died. And one in which it didn't.
Quantum Physics also says that 2 universes will branch off from each other in the next 2 seconds: one universe in which you dig this comment up and one in which you dig this comment down.
Next, in the universe in which you dug this comment down, a freak accident will occur in which one day you are walking along, minding your own business, when suddenly a crazed cat comes flying out of a tree and lands on top of you.
Quantum Physics also says that in one even more unlikely universe... sorry I'm ending this comment here. (Cat's got my tongue). - steger, on 10/12/2007, -0/+14I love the teases. They are always like:
"Are their dangerous ingredients in your child's school lunch? We'll tell you where, and why, and who's standing up against it at 11?"
Turns out that it's like yellow dye#5 and one parent doesn't like that their kid can buy a Mello Yello for lunch at their school. -
