Alien Bat Boy's Horoscope Makes Him Try Dolly Parton Diet!

Before there was an internet or email forwards, we, as Americans, had but one outlet for our need to read complete bull$%&# and think, "It could happen...". And that was the Weekly World News. The king of silly tabloids, this rag provided endless stuck-in-line-at-the-market hilarity. From claims of celebrities being aliens to tales of Bigfoot love slaves, it made many of us smile, and made many of our crazier relatives believe.

And now, we no longer have to turn to the Safeway racks to relive the memories. Google Book Search has now posted up over two decades of WWN fun, whole issues to browse through and be amazed by. Be captivated again as you follow the adventures of the New York Bat Boy. Find out how space aliens guided Reagan's policies. Quiver at the shocking truth that G.I.'s captured Satan himself in Iraq! So dust off your lust for horoscopes and your faith in Nostradamus prophecies (and what they have to tell us about Suzanne Somers) and dive in. The Loch Ness Monster will thank you.
