Headline from satire magazine, The Daily Probe: NEW REGULATION FORBIDS U.S. TROOPS TO RUN WITH SCISSORS WASHINGTON (DPI) - The Pentagon took steps today to improve the safety of U.S. troops by prohibiting armed forces personnel from running with scissors. "Invading Iraq is risky enough, what with all the bombs and guns in the hands of people out to kill us without the added risk posed by running with scissors," said Lt. Gen. Lafayette Leadbottom. That it posed a risk was a surprise to Pfc. Buford Charms. "I hadn't appreciated the danger, but now I'll be sure not to run with scissors even if I need to quickly get my ass out of the way of incoming Iraqi fire," Charms said. "I feel safer already." +++++ Love it! Live it! [O] matt [O] OtE Original gangsta! [O] shinyobjects@socal.rr.com
