* "Gun who killed officer said to have had mental problems"
(Editor: Now guns need professional help... ;-)
* "Smokers asked to keep butts off beach"
(Editor: Did they mean cigarette ends or rear ends? ;-)
* "Volunteers needed to help abuse victims"
(Editor: It seems they can no longer afford paid workers to beat up victims... ;-)
