Money for nothing

Jessica Lynch, the US soldier who was captured and dramatically rescued in Iraq, is in the news again thanks to her recent engagement (this time it's a marital, not military, engagement): BBC NEWS | World | Americas | Former Iraq PoW Lynch 'to marry'.

The most amazing aspect of her story is that someone is willing to pay her a million dollars to tell a story that she doesn't remember:

Private Lynch, who is still recuperating from wounds sustained during her ordeal and who reportedly has no memory of the incident, recently signed a $1m book deal to publish an account of her capture.

At least it'll be a quick read.
