Awesome or Off-Putting is a weekly delve into cryptozoology, ufology, aliens, medical marvels, scientific wonders, secret societies, government conspiracies, cults, ghosts, EVPs, myths, ancient artifacts, religion, strange facts, odd sightings or just the plain unexplainable. Just like Jack the Ripper terrorised London in late 1888, another serial killer had people terrified to be alone in their New Orleans homes. He left a trail of dead bodies covered in axe wounds - and he would even send letters to the local paper taunting the police. The following is the gruesome tale of the Axeman of New Orleans.
The world wants Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to get married so badly that it'll pretty much believe anything.
Like that Brad Pitt/ Angelina Jolie wedding that was supposed to have taken place in New Orleans on Saturday, for example. You know, the one that never happened.
Star magazine, which claimed Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie got married on Saturday, has now admitted that the whole report was a bunch of cobblers all along. The Pitt/Jolie non-wedding is pretty much good news for all sorts of reasons, though. Not only will it allow for another furiously inept media scrum the next time Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie don't get married, but - girls - this means that you can start kidding yourselves that you have a shot at Brad Pitt again!

Brad Pitt is continuing his quest to rebuild New Orleans in his own image - a bit like God did with mankind, only pinker and more bricky.
As part of his $12 million Make It Right campaign to build a series of cheap, sustainable homes to rehouse those affected by Hurricane Katrina, Brad Pitt has been to New Orleans to unveil a whole host of brand new homes that will... wait, that's not what Brad Pitt unveiled at all. In actuality, Brad Pitt unveiled a load of bright pinks blocks to obliquely remind people about the floods. But the houses are coming, honest, and Brad Pitt has pledged $5 million of his own money to build 150 houses by next summer.
Hang on, that's a good thing. This isn't what hecklerspray does. Damn you for not doing more stuff we can mock you for, Brad Pitt. Damn you to hell.
