CHICAGO -- A sleepy Robert Allan Luckett stayed awake 64 hours with his hand pressed against a Chrysler minivan, outlasting 19 other contestants in the carmaker's "Stand By Your Van" contest over the weekend in Chicago. Luckett won the Town and Country minivan for being the last to let go of it.

CARLSBAD, Calif. -- Starting Thursday (Feb. 12) the Legoland themepark in Carlsbad, California, will honor US forefathers for Presidents Day with the world's tallest Lego tower.

SAN FRANCISCO -- No more clowning around, guys! Around 20 people dressed in clown costumes and white makeup boarded San Francisco's metro Friday to protest against George W. Bush. Members of the "Clownarchy" group say Bush is giving clowns a bad name and they want other folks to suit up as clowns to join them for a Million Clown March in Washington this October, reports the "San Francisco Chronicle."
