Headlines

A headline in today's paper was "Shipman stole victim's jewellery".

Reading quickly on the train, I initially read this as "Shipman stole victim's jelly", which briefly gave me a quite unexpected perspective on the motivations of a serial killer.

On a similar note, a couple of weeks a go, the Torygraph had the headline 'Glorifying Terror to be Outlawed' next to a picture of Jack Nicklaus, which I obviously read as 'Golfing Terror to be Outlawed' and was moved to wonder what the poor chap had done.

He wanted to have his cake and eat it.

Oh well.
Hopefully his crimes have now been exsponged.

No idea, but I hear they're installing bunkers wherever he's due to play.

Can I give up the day job now?

No, I expect where he's gone he'll find himself in a jam.
