WHY THIS BLOG SUPPORTS A THREE-DAY 'COOLING OFF' PERIOD FOR THE PURCHASE OF GNOMES
(Thanks to Jan Anderson)
Update: Janice Gelb sends this version, including this:
The gnome, about a foot tall, wore a hat, a blue shirt over a bulging stomach and a wide grin as it sat on a table in open court throughout the two-day trial. Morrison and the weapon were separated by about 2 feet of table, with the gnome facing the defendant.
What has this done to Travelocity™ stock?

Perhaps Gnome-flinging can replace softball in the next Olympics.

It's fairly common to transpose syllables and misquote things randomly when drunk and then follow the words when spoken in one's head. For instance: "Hair's no place like gnome." Clearly he was confused but had the girl's best interest at heart when he hurled the gnome at her hairy head.
Not guilty.
