With a good dose of cheap (really cheap) hotel getaways and heap of sporty phenom news, the Brief takes you on a shortcut to today’s best headlines. Whether it makes you smile for randomness’ sake or makes you believe in the almost-impossible, these stories are sure to feel good.
- A one-cent hotel rate was a lucky vacation-dream come true for some online shoppers. Let’s hope that source of “human error” keeps his/her job!
- It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a physics-challenging anomaly of nature! The breakdown of an “epic run.”
- And in other sports news — making lemonade from lemons. Tiger still our hero, makes golf better even when he isn’t No. 1!
- White collar gaming: The league of laid-off Americans setting hopes on a new way to bring in the bucks in prime time game shows. Regis Philbin working overtime.
- “Clever marketing in a downtime” or glorified camping — either way, it made us smile.
