Somewhere, someone finally realizes the true deep hidden meaning of the Great Gatsby (My vote is that Gatsby is really a whale. I say he is an Orca and the light on the dock is helping guide him in and out of the harbor )

The 777th Toad of the 777th generation of that kind of toad grows human like awareness and realizes that they are simply living out a real-world game of Frogger

KFC will begin their plan on breeding Super Chickens so as to take over the world

Obama wins his second term

Pope Ratfinger joins twitter

Elvis sends 'Season's Greetings' from his home-world (Ok, the Mayans probably already knew about this one)

and more than can be listed by me I'm sure (I would like to see what other items people can think of for this list)
