Elaborate hoax tricks reporter into writing a story about "young chef"

This is an incredibly interesting story:

may be a young and relatively inexperienced reporter, but the other reporters in my office have never come across a scenario quite like this one. Not one reporter in my office could think of a time in their careers when a source had made up such an elaborate hoax and then conned a reporter.

Read it. He even tricked his mom. His mom!

Craig Ferguson's tribute to Apollo 11

A promo for tonight's Craig Ferguson shows Ferguson saying that his show is closer to PeeWee's Playhouse than a late night TV show. I'm not sure what Ferguson's show is close to -- especially the first half -- but it is undeniably funny. And he proved it again with this musical segment from last night.

Ignore the Paris Hilton thing, but this is great.

Nicklaus and Watson

Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson were great rivals back in the day.

Now?

Good friends.

Nicklaus, 69, the "Golden Bear" who won a record 18 major titles between 1962 and 1986, was so intrigued by the action that he watched the entire last round from his Florida home.

"Jack told me: 'Watson, that's the first time I ever sat down and watched all 18 holes of any golf tournament, ANY golf tournament,' " a smiling Watson said.

Watson lost in a playoff at the British Open -- despite being 59 years old. If he had made a par on the 18th hole, he would have won, but he bogeyed the hole after missing an eight foot putt for par.
