No News Day

I saw this and thought, yup... nothing to report today.  Writers at The Metro have begun using the worn paperback book they keep by the toilet for news material...  You've seen that book; someone receives it for Secret Santa at work and it ends up in the bathroom wedged into a pile of magazines.  It has a title like, "Toilet Treasures and Trivia Vol. 8".  Just in case there is no news for the rest of the weekend, I would like to offer these suggestions for Metro headlines:
  • Women blamed for most babies
  • Stoners blamed for late night 7-11 sales
  • Chuck Norris blamed for tsunami, hurricane, earthquake
  • Wisconsin blamed for most cows
  • George Bush blamed for everything Democrats don't like
Just call me Captain Obvious.

  1. Ha! Yes, it must have been a slow news day. BTW, did you hear that Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher split? LOL

  2. They give out these papers for free in Dublin. We saw the Dutch version on the train platform in Maastricht. They're kind of freebie, read-on-the-train-and-leave newspapers. Holy crap, Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore were going out? No way!

  3. Ashton and Demi split aaaaaaaaaages ago! He moved on even before they split up and she's been huffing laughing gas. Ah, the lives of the rich and famous!
