NATIONAL/WORLD NEWS:
Homeland Security/Starbux Initiative Creates Chaos

SEATTLE/WASHINGTON, D.C. - It looked like another of the administration's perfect matches--making our Vaterland safer while boosting corporate profits with taxpayer money--but the recent Christmas holiday Code Orange proved catastrophic for the new Department of Homeland Security-Starbux alliance. Its “Free Coffee for Alert Citizens/Alert Travelers” initiative was the cause of 76 emergency aircraft landings, a dozen deaths, over 400 injuries, and property damage of over $1 billion, to say nothing of the lawsuit awards it will generate...

Road Policy Reveals True Mystic Nature of Alaska's Royal Leader
Build Them and They Will Come

JUNEAU - Alaska’s Royal Governor, Frank Murkowski's bold and pricey proposals for building roads into the wilderness seem paradoxical in a state that runs steady deficits, and where budget cuts have brought his subjects—from children to octogenarians to teachers—to dream wistfully of the quasi-socialist Eden of Dickens's England.

We send all four of our children to Sunday School and the baby to nursery. But yesterday something terrible happened at the morning service during the collection when the congregation was singing that wonderful old hymn "There is a Fountain Filled with Blood Drawn from Emmanuel's Veins." Suddenly my wife asked me, loud enough that the Pastor and the whole congregation could hear her "How could they get so much blood into a fountain?!" Everyone turned to stare at us! When I tried to place my hand over her mouth to stop her blasphemous questioning in church, as the blessed St. Paul says in his first letter to the Corinthians 11: 14-33-35, until I could get her home to answer her, she bit me and bent my wedding ring...
