New York, NY--
MTV Games today announced that they will be releasing another "special edition" of their popular Rock Band game focusing on the music of British pop group Kajagoogoo.
Scott Guthrie, Executive Vice President and General Manager of MTV Games, announced the upcoming game today with members of the band.
"We've all loved Kajagoogoo since they released 'Too Shy' in 1983," Guthrie said, "And while I can't think of another one of their songs, they are a legendary band that deserves its own game."
Guthrie was asked if Kajagoogoo was a band of the same magitude as Aerosmith, Metallica, The Beatles, and Van Halen, the only other bands to have special editions of the two dominant music-based games, Rock Band and Guitar Hero.
"Didn't you see VH1's 'Bands Reunited' episode on them?" Guthrie countered. "Limahl was adorable in 1983 and still is! Their importance has nothing to do with chart singles, records sold, or influence on other artists. It's all about the hair and that great synth-pop sound."

Rep. Wilson Calls Clemson Fan a Liar
Columbia, SC--
A local Clemson University football fan said that Rep. Addison (Joe) Wilson (R-SC) called him a liar when he said Clemson had a better football team than the University of South Carolina.
Bobby Joe Roberts was tailgating outside of Memorial Stadium last November with his friends when Rep. Wilson walked by.
"We were hootin' at all of the Cocks walking by, sayin' things like 'Clemson's number one' and 'We're gonna kick some ass today'," said Mr. Roberts, "when this red faced guy with overly coiffed hair walks up to me and sticks his finger in my chest and screams, 'You lie!'
"I said, 'Dude, we hold a 64-37-4 lead in the series, we've won all but two games since 1997, and Johnny Freakin' Heisman coached for us. We kick your butt all over the football field!' And then I high-fived Jimmy Ray.
"He just poked me again and shouted 'You lie' and then stormed off."
Rep. Wilson is a 1972 Graduate of the University of South Carolina School of Law. In addition to the Clemson dust-up, he has called Rep. Bob Filner (D-CA) "viscerally anti-American" but claimed that he did not intend to insult Mr. Filner.

Parents Keep Children Home From Socialist Schools
Missoula, MT--
A group of enraged parents have decided to keep their children home from school until the government "gets out of the education business."
Mark Scheffler, a local insurance agent and spokesperson for the group said, "We were going to keep our kids home today because of the socialist messages Obama was going to give in his back-to-school speech. Then we realized that the entire public school system was a socialist conspiracy. What makes the government think it knows anything about education? It sure has failed us miserably!"
Dr. Alex Apostle, Superintendent of Missoula County Public Schools said, "The United States has a long and proud history of public education. Many scientific advances in the 20th Century came from American public higher-education institutions and nearly 90% of all American children receive their education at a public school. This is hardly a grand socialist conspiracy!"
In rebuttal, Mr. Scheffler said, "We know the idea of public education was championed by that Red Frenchy Napoleon. And if by 'science' he is referring to that hooey about evolution and stem cells, he can keep it! We all know what the Bible says and it has all of the answers you'll ever need. Except about life insurance: I'm your man for that."
