Our Reporters don't overlook media mentions, wayward things, or failure to mention items that have a Profound or maybe just a small Side Effect. 

Scraps like the court ruling on internet slander or why your computer is so slow, it's nearly dead.  Oil prices, the war,

....and things like our tax dollars going to help build and grow puppy mills!

So these items are for you because we promised you the news

and A Funny Thing
or two along the way.
