Those are literary CARTOONS for the masses, something to make them LAUGH instead of CRY while they read about the days happenings.

I just returned from having dental surgery and the Doctor said specifically don’t laugh, it will stress the sutures and bleeding will occur. Well, bleeding is occuring!

Very good HTRN. I have used some myself and others:

Funny Newspaper Headlines and my Response

"Students Cook & Serve Grandparents"

Was this for a cannibal convention?

"Federal Agents Raid Gun shop, Find Weapons"

Imagine feds actually finding what they’re looking for!

"Army vehicle goes missing after being painted with camouflage"

Wasn’t that the idea?

"State population to double by 2040; babies to blame"

Come on, we can find a politician to blame for this.

"Midget sues grocer, sites belittling remarks"

What low remarks from that grocer!

"Most Earthquake Damage is Caused by Shaking"

A most revealing headline. Who’d have thought?

"Alton attorney accidentally sues himself"

Poetic justice.

A magazine I had a hand in publishing had both a dyslexic writer and copyreader. I did the layout, and to be honest I didn’t really read through the articles; my job was to make the page look good. My wife was reading through one of the blocks of type and burst out in fits of laughter. After that, my job doubled.
