Oh my! HOOOOOWWWW FUUUNNY!!!!!!!! I laughed so hard my dogs started barking!!! Your response to each flubbed headline made me laugh even harder! I especially like that LAST one! Where ARE the editors anyway? And did they even pass the High School ENGLISH Exit Exam? Too funny. Thanks for the GREAT laugh! ~~Tracy

I was just showing this to my son. He loved it! That's because he can't believe stuff like this gets printed. And no one notices, guess they don't employ proofreaders anymore?
