More Great Moments in Editing


Bernadette and Richard left yesterday, and things are getting back to normal* around Chez Bilbo. I have a lot of administrative tasks to catch up on, so let's just do a simple post today ... more Great Moments in Editing.

Some stores will go to any length to make a sale ...


Well yes, I guess it could be a sign ...


I don't know about you, but it really bugs me when I have steaks on my windows rather than on the grill ...


At least her depilatories seem to be working ...


It was designed by the same guy who designed that car in the circus that seats 75 clowns ...


Yet more fuel for the conspiracy theorists ...


Drugs in space ...


This one isn't really an editing glitch, but I think I would like this lady ...


I've heard of some interesting mixed-breed animals before, but this one is really interesting ...


Perhaps they do, but ...


And there you have it. Or them. Whatever.

Have you found a classic editorial blooper? A mis-captioned photo? An example of grand punmanship in a headline? Scan and e-mail it to ol' Bilbo. When I use it, I'll give you a shout.

No money ... just a shout.

Have a good autumn day. More thoughts tomorrow.

Bilbo

* Or whatever passes for it.

That was a classical comment on the Golden Years! And, as the old bags would admit, you're not too old to learn.

I worry that it's s easy for babboons to pass........

Bilbo - isn't everyone alive hours before they die? that made me chuckle.

The golden gal could have spiced it up a bit and said the only thing golden about her golden years were the showers.

The golden gal might be a mother lode of beadpan comments!

Princess Diana was alive before she died? Who started that rumor?

I would like to meet a personable horse. Are we talking Mr. Ed?
