Heads you lose.

"The heads, which was sent to Chicago from outside the U.S.,..."
Mr. Language Person?

Were they in a duffel bag?

Now this could only happen to a guy like me
And only happen in a town like this
So may I say to each of you most gratefully
As I throw each one of you a kiss
This is my kind of town, Chicago is

U --
It's the Sun Times. If you expect better grammar, check out Pravda.
I'm not sure if the head delivery is related to the Bilandic Winter we have been experiencing.

It would appear that someone lost his, or somebody else's head. Eighteen became seventeen. Give it another couple of weeks and the problem is solved.

There's more than one way to get a head in this world.

So THAT's where they went. I mean, how interesting.

I think it's the Bears' outgoing coaching staff.

For an update (although not an explanation) see the Trib story at http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-paperwork-holds-up-shipment-of-18-human-heads-at-ohare-20130115,0,4009068.story
I keep thinking that some poor child didn't get to open their Christmas present because of a paperwork problem.

Has Joe Pesci been reached for comment?
And when did they find The 18th Head, WWBAGNFARB?
Posted by: oneblankspace | January 15, 2013 at 12:55 PM
So where were they headed?

Best Halloween ever! (Sigh).

I had the EXACT same paperwork snafu the last time I tried to ship heads to the crematorium. Just an innocent little mistake.
Posted by: HogsAteMySister | January 15, 2013 at 03:52 PM
I first read the headline (snork) as "Suburban creamery claims 18 heads...."

Alas poor Yorick....
Posted by: Ralph | January 15, 2013 at 04:37 PM
So, asked the shipper, "How much to ticket these scalps?"
