I Also Hear That Britney Spears May Replace Alan Greenspan
Bono, lead singer for the rock band U2, might just be the next president of World Bank. The "bank" is a United Nations agency, whose member countries are jointly responsible for how the institution is financed and how its money is spent. It provides assistance to developing countries in an effort to fight poverty and improve living standards. United States Treasury Secretary John Snow believes that Bono has the skills needed to replace current bank president John Wolfensohn, who will step down on June 1. If a professional wrestler can become the governor of Minnesota, I suppose that anything is possible. Source

HUH? I thought Ex-HP CEO Carly Fiorina was favored to take the World Bank spot? Did I lapse into a coma or something? Bono? What the hell?
