Did you read all the extra-curricular activities these kids are involved in?
It's amazing.
At the end of the day, it's takes all my strength just to hang my bra on the doorknob.

Mmmmmm .... Sweet Corn ....

I dunno, I don't think this headline, excellent though it may be, can compete with the waterlogged waving willy in San Franscisco.
Queen Corn just can't hold a candle to Periscope Willy.

Most of the articles in my hometown paper are about that level of interesting, although we do have frequent meth lab busts. One of my classmates from sixth grade got arrested on about a dozen different drug charges a couple of months ago. But the most fun thing about reading our paper is the "at-home editing" feature. Apparently the editors find it ammusing to leave tons of errors in their articles so we can have the fun of finding them and discussing how stupid the people who run our paper are. Either that or they take Mr. Language Person a little too seriously.

I let mine fall where it may and my dog ate it. Well, part of it. I am NOT making this up.

Sorry, but the best headline I read today was:
Man beaten with his own leg
Says he couldn't get away
I'm not making this up!

SuzyQ - OH (light bulb over head)! So that's why everyone looks at me when I go to the store - I didn't think they could notice the jiggling!!!
Posted by: Eleanor | August 10, 2005 at 08:51 PM
El,
We always notice. We stare because we care.
Posted by: louis gehrig | August 10, 2005 at 09:21 PM
Jiggling is always noticed. Ok, almost.

I vote for Squeaky Cool Corn Man.
