    I’ll take that bet. Anyone remember the front page Chicago Tribune headline “Regan’s Penis Ready” from the 80’s. It was supposed to read, “Reagan’s Pen Is Ready” regarding a veto. Anyway, I’m wagering the internet press is slower than the paper press. It is 2:11 now. I’ll check back in an hour, Bill.

    Good luck on the radio today, by the way. I’ll be listening!

    S.O.B! You win! Where do I send the $5? Please don’t say Pay Pal. How about if I drop off a couple of gallons of bottle water?

    The funniest headline story I ever heard was from a guy who’s been a writer at the New York Daily News for years. I think it was sometime in the 80s and the Pope had gotten a colostomy. He said the night editors would always use a mock headline for the front page and then change it when they thought of the real one. For this one they used: POPE HAS GOT A BRAND NEW BAG! as the fake headline. Well the editor fell ill, was rushed to the hospital and that’s the headline that went out for the first edtion. The phone lines went nuts with complaints and the editor was fired the next day. Harr har.
