HEADLINES (and Weddings)

 

Here is a package for high-quality light bulbs. Look at the directions… The light bulbs last approximately 1,000 hours in English -- and 2,000 hours in Spanish. So light them in Spanish and it looks like you'll get more time.


Here's Health Fest '98 held in Tulsa, Oklahoma. 'Healthy living, healthy eating, healthy choices.'


Check out the vendors at the 'health fest' and look what they'll be selling…


We've got to get these kids drinking again, by golly!


Zeus Greek and Lebanese Café 'where hospitality is a tradition.' If you don't get your take-out order in 15 minutes or less, you'll get a FREE GLASS OF WATER! Man, they must be going broke!


Here's the altar boy special…


I bet the 911 operator was happy to get this call…


You Canadians will love this… It's not a good sign when you can't get crooks to take your money.


Here's a poorly worded sentence… It wasn't the punching in the face that woke this guy up, but the' melodious sounds' of the roommate punching him in the face.


That is quite an injury, isn't it?


Here's 'campus comments'… 'How do you feel about the GOP taking both the House and the Senate?' I don't really care, says freshman Tyler Kaban, POLITICAL SCIENCE MAJOR!


Let me tell you something, if that is the highlight of your Florida vacation!…


Here's an affordable, non-invasive face lift alternative… Is that woman really lifting her face?


I love this guy…


'I don't know whose pants these are, man!'


God bless our veterans…


'The couple met when Joan was Thomas' nurse in a veterans hospital in Nuremberg, Germany, where he was wounded in a card game.'


The photographer should have noticed this… The father should have noticed this… The mother should have noticed this…


I don't know why the mother has her thumb there. Maybe she's just trying to tell us how impressive her child is.


Look at this -- 'Fly for the Airlines.' No experience necessary… Look at the bottom one -- 'Visas for foreign students.' 'Ahmed, come on down!'


I was looking at this picture of the Stones and I realized, these people are actually younger than the real Stones.


Here's some weddings… These are people who got married that have some rather interesting names when you put them together. Here's the Bull - Dozier wedding…


Here's the Schutte - Harrup wedding…


I'm sure the bride was crying her eyes out with this one on her wedding night… It's the Little and Quick wedding!


Here's the Pullin - Dailey wedding…


Here's the Little - Luce wedding…


There's the Pointer - Peed wedding…


It's the Weiner - Needles nuptuals


It's the Peters - Tingle wedding…


If you're an outdoorsman, you might go to the Hunter and Rieder wedding…


And finally, married for over 20 years, it's the Dum - Asses wedding…                                                                                                                                                                                                     

                                                                                                                                               

                                                                                                                                              

                                                                                                                                                           

                           
If you're going down hill, you're okay.


Could get a little gamey, don't you think?


From now on, 'Freedom Bridge' will be called… 'Freedom Bridge.'


'…is a little irritable but enjoys TV.' And $2.00 for the goldfish, but how much to place the ad?!


Replaced the carpet?! I hate when they do that!


She must be exhausted! Those fertility drugs have gone too far!


Right, a Weight Watchers Meeting… Use the large double doors at the side entrance.


Here's an idiot, a complete moron… This guy told police that the LSD he had was for selling and was not for personal use.


Yes, 'perky Canadian pair won't be forgotten.'


Yes, cats can be a little disagreeable at times.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

                           

                           
Ladies, here's why it's important to buy name-brand products.


Now, here's a Hollywood dog. There you go… a shemale Jack Russell terrier.


A free cap. Obviously, they don't have a lot of faith in their own haircuts.


Archery equipment cart?! That's a garbage pail!


What a deal! You move in tonight and you don't have to pay a dime until tomorrow morning.


This woman doesn't really seem to mind getting obscene phone calls. 'Stop! You're so naughty!


Here's some people with real names… 'Cook to Marry Kitchen.'


'Stuck – 50 Years'


'Faught – 40 Years'


'Slamin – 50 Years'                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

                           

                           
I'm sure they're fine clothes, but the name is…


I like restaurants that put on airs… The 'Soup of the day' is 'Soup de jour.'


The headline - 'Pentagon keeping names of its fighters secret.' Now look at the photograph… 'Lieutenant J.E. Tidwell.' These are the same people working airport security.


Here is an ad for stretchy seat underpants -- which, I'm sure, are great. But who puts on their shoes and socks before they put their pants on?!


Yes, 'Seven of the nine commission members voted UNANIMOUSLY!'


This is how big this Winnebago is… It has a heated basement!


'Honey, call the cops! A man was flying a kite and LET IT GO! How strange…'


Here's a place to take that special gal in your life.


I don't even understand this one… 'The deaf awareness workshop is postponed due to laryngitis.'


You want to adopt a dog? Well here's a lovely dog… Here, look at the name… Bitey. Bitey the dog.                                                                                                                                                                                                          

                           

                           
I bet a lot of men turn out for this…


This seems a little insulting… 'A 29-year-old manly woman…'


Some people are just idiots! Beautiful bike, isn't it?! And this guy took out a big ad for this!


This seems to be a bad idea. It seems like a trick. Didn't I see this in a Roadrunner cartoon once?


Here is the worst idea… What's lovelier than a stars and stripes doormat? Where are they selling these? -- Afghanistan?!


It was 'burned completely to the metal frame'… because, you know, they are so beautifully done up in the first place.


These kids just sat through a 5-hour etiquette class. …It seems like the one kid learned a lot.


This is unfortunate wording… 'Occupants of van finger each other at trial.'


The Jolly Three Band performs… And, boy, he sure looks jolly, doesn't he?


Here's the idiot of the week…                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

                           
'Teaching students raise scores.' Huh. So there is a correlation between teaching and scores…


Here's irony… 'Butts man guilty of dealing crack.'


Here's a child's tea set… but why would they be eating a Milkbone?


This is a tag from some womens' plus size clothing… I think this is a bit harsh -- size OX. 'We have it in size water buffalo too.'


Psssst… Your checker was GAY!


This is creepy… Look, what a lovely thing to demonstrate your love.


'Horse riding with a difference'… Yeah, you're going off a cliff!


Don't like your neighbor's tree? Gee, just move it while they're gone!


This is an actual ad… Maybe it's just me… Does this seem like an appropriate snack for kids?


Here's a guy who has some issues… 'Drive to the camp, to work or OVER YOUR MOTHER-IN-LAW'S FACE!'                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

                           

                           
This is kind of creepy. I don't know if I'd be bragging about that, lady.


I knew airport security was bad, but…


Bathroom necessities? How bad is your diet if you need a fire extinguisher and a smoke detector?! You might want to cut down on the chili.


This is probably a fine, fine restaurant, but I guess the owner decided that he didn't need a professional to write his slogan.


Here's a guy who's got some problems…


I feel so bad for this woman. This misprint is just so bad I cut the woman's name out.


Finally an accurate description of a cat…


People are so stupid! They're idiots! A 'hate crime'?!


One of my pet peeves, and something I just rail against, is people who put stupid costumes on their pets and walk them around. These are the stupidest costumes I have ever seen!


I'm sure this guy is a wonderful realtor, but he's got an unfortunate name…                                                                                                                                                                                               

                           
Some of you country folks may recognize this…


I bet this is one of the gooder scools too…


Here's a poorly worded headline. It's not necessarily my thought -- this is just the way it is written…


I couldn't have said it better myself. It is so true.


This is one tough truck. This is what real men do. 'I'm going to be hauling some heavy stuff. Give me that penile hitch and put about 1200 pounds on it.'


This seems like a rather inappropriate ad for a nursing home, even if it is Halloween.


You know, some people just like to bother the police. Look at this idiot woman here… 'a cat on the sidewalk and Olivia Newton-John on the television -- Quick, call the police!'


Here are some people who have some interesting names that got married… These are a little racy… Touchette - Budde.


Weiner – Bonin


These are two women that got married… I'll let you read it yourself…                                                                                                                                                                                                       

                           

                           
'If you're going to San Francisco -- be sure to wear flowers in your hair…'


People always wonder where I met Kev, knowing that he's from Philadelphia. I actually saw his picture before I met him...


90% -- You can't get more honest than that.


Isn't that great when your parents don't think you can do it? 'We're his parents and we thought he was just a nothing.'


'Don't call during Lawrence Welk!'


Here's a heck of a deal… I don't know what it means…


Boy, here's a Freudian slip…


I love these two…


A children's choir performing for the Pope. What bigger honor could there be. And as you can see, the Pope is really enjoying the himself.


I'll let you read this headline yourself. This is a sports headline…                                                                                                                                                                                                               

                                                                                                                                                           

                           
Here's a Nashville school lunch… I'll take a smaller portion of the 'turdy salad' please.


I love when politicians lie right on the ballot… Hair. Brown. Right.


These guys must be really good lawyers… 'Why would we screw you?!' The Trickey Crooks Law Firm.


I love when they ask people on the street questions… 'What should the U.S. do to involve more young people in volunteerism?'


…'I think they should make it mandatory!'


When you squeeze it, it makes the authentic lobster sound.


That girl is really flexible, isn't she?


Want your crack house cleaned?


Congratulations to Dawn Olson who graduated from 'booty camp'!


I don't read or speak Chinese… but I'm just curious as to what this procedure is. Ancient Chinese secret, ey?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

                           

                           
Here's a rather inappropriately worded headline…


Perhaps someone should have thought twice about this one too…

This is what I love about lawyers. This is an actual Senate bill…


Isn't this sweet? 'Sweden to let same-sex couples adopt.' That couple couldn't be happier.


Looks like Mom might want to get off the hormone therapy. A little more estrogen for Mom, possibly…


How depressing is this? 'Hey, what is that -- a shrimp in your pants?'


What is one of my pet peeves? Dressing up animals! Dogs and cats will not wear stupid things you give them. Your dog is not going to carry this around!


A 'Free Super Bowl Mexican buffet'… What's better than a free Mexican buffet with music? That's right -- 'Dance to the sounds of Breaking Wind.'


Here's the infamous doomsday clock. 'Built to last 500 years... One-year warranty.'


Here's a good deal… 'Gurney's Inn Resort & Spa -- Appreciate your secretary with a 2 night special.' YAH!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

                           

                           
Here's Kevin's favorite florist…


Looks like I'm going on the road…

'She's gonna blow at any minute -- get in here! Mayday! Mayday!'

Here's a sure sign that rock stars are getting older and older. Look, it's the Granny Awards…


Here are some dedicated players -- except for that one guy in the back…


Let me tell you how stupid men are! This is a vacuum, an industrial vaccum -- and the fact that they have to tell guys that, well...


I don't think they did this on purpose, but this is one of the most inappropriately worded headlines…


Apparently some girls want those rings just a little more than others…                                                                                                                                                                                                      

                           
Josef's Pastry Shop has 30 different styles to choose from… Then why use the bent-over cake? Out of all 30 cakes, that was the best one you had?


'Bring them damn babies over here -- I'll take care of 'em.'

Snow Squall Restaurant & Lounge's graduation special… 'You put in four years of college and when you get out -- free toast! It's on me.'


Why would you take this ad out? 'Need $45 million for 16 months -- serious calls only. No time for timewasters!'


I know Jesus was a man of the people, but I thought he had better things to do with his time. 'Jesus is coming through town -- come on by!'


Look at the woman in the front row! Why is her hair in curlers? She is invited to meet the archbishop and to sit in the front row. Is she meeting the Pope later on? Where are you going later that you have curlers in your hair?


'Today we remember the three wise men from the East… who came with rich gifts of golf, frankincense and myrrh.' Remember when Jesus did the 9 holes in 7 shots? That was amazing.


Soccer is a rough game. I don't even know what this move is called. Those baseball players can go on strike when they have to do that.


I know we live in a cynical society, but there are some things you might want to enter with a positive attitude… 'This thing is not going to work out anyway -- be cheap! What the hell!'


What are people thinking? What are they supposed to color? Snow is white; penguins are black.
