Most of coursely, we at the AP is full of folks with, um, commodious newsrighting ability...really...NO ****!!

The story itself is only mildly interesting (or really, it'd be amusing
if these bozos were such hypocrites...), but I suspect this
single-sentence paragraph from it might creep up elsewhere...are ya
listening, Leno?

"County officials initially will focus on properties with heavier
commode traffic, such as restaurants and Barbra Streisand's old estate."

from http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/10/04/mal....ap/index.html

Oh, sure, the NEXT paragraph explains that Babs ain't ****tin' herself
empty over not having the benefit of a nice new estate like all the
other celebrities...

I wonder what the crapper situation is over at Cecil B. DeMille's former
home...hopefully, on a clear day, one CAN'T see (or smell) forever...

Enjoy,
R

Ok, credit where credit is due, that was at least *kinda* funny.

Funny, sure; but how about the headline link at the bottom, "Be advised,
hemorrhoid cream not for the face". I mean really, how many people needed
that cleared up?

Well, judging by the storage facility used by so many people when their
heads are not actually being used for anything more than ballast......which
is to say, most of the time.....I'd venture that what needs to be cleared up
is almost certainly exactly what the cream was designed for in the first
place. Thus, the real issue here is one of truth in advertising.

who, on the other hand, is not at all comfortable with the lingering
possibility that the manufacturers really DON'T have any idea of what their
product is for.

Did not see the notice in the article. But Preparation H is a pretty good
burn ointment.
