2008 Wife-Carrying Contest
Although the most famous wife-carrying contest--the original event in Finland--came and went in July, as you can learn in the clip below, other such events are going on regularly, such as this recent New Hampshire contest.I'm thinking we need to enter a WEIRD UNIVERSE team in one of these competitions. Any volunteers?

Wild Women of Wongo
You'll have to decide for yourself. First, take a look at the unfortunately bleached-out trailer. Then view the whole film--in glorious "Pathecolor"--on YouTube, in several parts, with the first one featured after the trailer.
