Have you ever asked yourself what the meaning of news really is?

It’s like the meaning of life, isn’t it? Or the meaning of God, or love, or digestive biscuits. Maybe there isn’t any, I mean.

Anyway, whether there is any meaning to life, ABBA revival tours or news, I think we can all agree that there is a Hell of a lot of it. News, that is. (I try not to  notice or count ABBA revival tours.)

So, each and every day, there are millions of stories, big and small, that make it into the world’s many news outlets. From Washington Post to Huffington Post, from the Tel Aviv Telegraph to the Jihadist Journal, from the Inuit Examiner to the Papua Express, from… Well, you catch my drift.

Lots of stuff out there - and I’ve been writing a daily column about various news stories, for over two years now.

No, this is not a farewell post but I’m going on a holiday and I won’t have access to the Internet, for a week. Which will be a mother of a cold turkey, I’m sure. So, I won’t be able to follow the news or write about it - but I will leave you with some links to older, strange and sometimes wonderful news stories. I’ve built up quite an archive, over these two years…

Here’s the first instalment, called, ‘It’s all about sex’. Enjoy:

1) Scientists and handjobs

2) Subsiding sex museums

3) Pizza courier porn works
