My all time favorite appeared in our local paper. The story concerned the threatened closing of the American Screw Company and the headline read... "Directors Make Offer to Screw Stockholders"
OMG...did you laugh a lot??? Our little local paper goofs a lot...and it's fun to try and find them.... Like the time the Headlines read "pubic utilities hearing" instead of "public"... LMAO! I take it where I can get it....
