THE YEAR'S BEST [actual] HEADLINES OF 2007: NOT!!!
I received an email containing this list of THE YEAR'S BEST [ACTUAL] HEADLINES OF 2007!, from my best friend. Upon researching where the headlines came from (to give proper credit) I found out these aren't really headlines from 2007. This list has been going around for at least seven years. Check out this competition from 2000 in which people created images to match some of these headlines. Plus, I doubt if any of these were ever actual headlines either. For more information go to the Museum of Hoaxes. The headlines, real or not, are still funny anyway! I guess I need to break the news to my friend. Sorry Brent.

Sometimes you actually catch one of these in real life and it's a treat. The same can be said for church bulletin bloopers as there's been a collection of these floating around the internet and pre-internet for many years. There was an actual blooper in our bulletin a few months back when a prayer request read as follows:
"Continue to pray for John B. John had a tree fall on him a few weeks ago, and his keg was broken in two places."
I blogged about it way back when, but it still cracks me up. Poor John probably didn't get to enjoy all of that beer when his keg broke. Hopefully our prayers helped him to deal with it.
I like it, Really funny! I told some kids at school... They laughed, Thank you!
