Quickies: And you wonder why I don’t live in Manayunk• I saw this dude on television this morning (naturally) and he wasn’t all that hairy. But, yes, a Manayunk salon has crowned Philadelphia’s hairiest man in advance of The 40-Year-Old Virgin’s DVD release. Uh, sure. [KYW 1060] • A fourth grader in Northeast Philly — naturally! — tried to poison her teacher with acetone, allegedly. (Acetone is the ingredient in nail polish remover, among other things.) Uhh… kids nowadays? [CBS 3] • Drug dealers nowadays! Upper Darby cops have arrested the Sweet Dope Tooth Dealers, who had DARE stickers on their cars and delivered drugs in Tastycake boxes. Geeze, come on, cops: Think of all the Tastycakes they bought! All the local economy jobs! Sigh. [AP via 6 ABC] • And, your media fix for the next half hour: The best corrections of the year. The winner is this one: “The Denver Daily News would like to offer a sincere apology for a typo in Wednesday’s Town Talk regarding New Jersey’s proposal to ban smoking in automobiles. It was not the author’s intention to call New Jersey ‘Jew Jersey.’” Personally, I kind of like this Jew-related correction Gawker pointed out better. [Regret the Error via Blinq] |
