Some news items you might have missed:

• Paleontologist Francesc Gascó (above) redefines the old saying, "Walk tall and carry a big... hammer?" Ok, I'm not complaining... :)

• Out Olympic bronze medalist Adam Rippon not only attended the TIME 100 Gala in New York City as one of the news magazine's "100 Most Influential of 2018" but he got to sniff country music star Keith Urban along the way.

• Hottie Simon Dunn trolled anti-LGBT Australian rugby player Israel Follau for saying gays will go to hell by kissing his bf after his own rugby match and then retweeting the pic to Follau. Follau has doubled-down in his hateful comments saying he'd rather end his career than take back what he said.
