OT: Need a laugh?


Editor types will especially love the headlines here, on a blog called The Blood-Red Pencil. Today's installment: headlines that should never have been written.

In the apparently imitable style of Wendy McClure of Candyboots, the editors have assembled a glorious collage of headlines from the dark side. My favorite--and it's so hard to pick just one!--is Include Your Children when Baking Cookies. The commentary: Certainly important in some recipes—"Northern Witch Missionary Lip Stew" comes to mind—but a rather expensive ingredient, no?

Yes indeed.

Looking your best: One writer's (tongue in cheek) advice for dealing with the "obesity epidemic"



Pieces like this are just part of the reason I love the New Yorker magazine. Much better than the cartoons, IMO.

Enjoy, and happy new year!


Thanks to Caylin for the link!
