How in the *WORLD* did I make it in life without this source of news?!?!?!??

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Poole's Roost II : One Thread

It's a veritable bastion of journalistic amorphrodition! A truly suction-sponsored reflectometer of truth!

IT's .... (drum roll, PLEASE!) ... The WEEKLY WORLD NEWS!

Why, the search engine at this amazing site returned TWO HUNDRED HITS for the string "head exploding television!" Make up strings of your own! Amaze your friends and paralyze onlookers!

It don't get no better than this, peeple! Forget Newsmax! Forget Salon, forget MSNBC, Fox, Sierra Times and even (I SHUDDER to say it, but pungent perspicuity and principle REQUIRES that I add ...) ... WORLD NET DAILY!

This is GREAT stuff.

(mutter, mutter, mumble ...)

The Weekly World News is great. They are the ones who had a cover for Y2K saying the world was going to end. It's the Mad Magazine of the tabloids!

Don't LOL too soon, Peg. The batchild has escaped, according to a later WWN story, and I think he is still on the loose.

WWW reminds us that the world is a dangerous place and we must always be alert, especially when travelling in foreign counties. Sixty killed by exploding grapefruit in Argentina, according to one story. And hundreds were hurt in India, when elephants which had been levitated over a bazaar looked down, became frightened, and lost control of their bowels, causing a massive human stampede.
