WTF is up with Australia???

As many of you already know, news.google.com has introduced some customization options. You can delete categories, and add custom categories. As a joke, I added an Anna Nicole Smith category, and this was today's first article.

I post it because I can't for the life of me figure out why this was even printed, or why they seem to make a connection between this guy leaving his marketing job and having attended a party where Anna Nicole Smith was in attendance.

And what the heck does this mean?

A source from the partying group said last night that Mr Hoy "very kindly" paid for the drinks. Smith had apparently caught with "her bare hands" a live goldfish at the restaurant.

Of course, this line sounds like the Anna we all know:

"They were getting on well," the source said. "But she was getting on well with everyone, actually."

I've learned one thing from this story. They clearly have some strange ideas about what's newsworthy in Australia.
