Oversharing

We can thank the underwear bomber doofus for this: Full-body scanners that project a nearly nude image are coming to Sea-Tac Airport.

The Transportation Security Administration says travelers can opt for a pat-down search instead, but it hopes to encourage use of the scanners by offering people the option of posting the images to their Facebook walls.



  • Everything must go: A storage lot in the suburbs of Chicago auctioned off the contents of a unit that contained the belongings of former Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D-Deadlocked Jury) because no one was paying the rent.

    While plenty of Elvis Presley-themed swag was available, collectors were denied the ultimate piece of Blago memorabilia -- his hairbrush.



  • Legendary: A growing percentage of Americans say they believe President Barack Obama is a Muslim, not a Christian, a new poll says. In response, several prominent megachurch pastors came to the president's defense Thursday.

    But many doubters weren't mollified until they were shown that it says "Christian" right there on Obama's Kenyan birth certificate.
