Monday Funnies on Tuesday

Finally got around to Monday's Keene Sentinel today (hey, I'm on vacation).

Glancing through, I did a double take on page two (you have to see the newsprint version for this, and there is no fair-use way to link or scan this for the full effect); so for those of you who don't get this paper, please try to visualize:

Title above photo (four columns wide, top right side of page two surrounded with hairline box):

"GRAND OPENING"

Color photo of Jennifer Palin Horn with onlookers at the new CCRC HQ in the Colony Mill.

Caption in small print: Congressional candidate, etc., at the new CCRC HQ, etc.

Headline just below photo, in large bold type:

"Statewide, officials looking at Keene nudity"

Perfect for Letterman, no?

Of course the latter is actually a jump from a page one story about Free Staters disrobing and carrying on in general in Keene's Central Square, but the visual effect of the photo and the headline is priceless, especially for those of us with less-than-stellar eyesight who would miss that hairline border and maybe even the actual photo caption itself.

OK, going back to vacation now, just thought it was mildly entertaining. I had nearly forgotten that she was running, truth be told.
