25 years ago last week

In the Salina paper each Monday, they recap news stories from previous years. This is one from last Monday's paper, but it was funny.

Nov 1, 1982 (25 years ago)
Halloween paranoia struck early Sunday when two Salina residents arrived at the police station yesterday afternoon with what they thought were suspicious food items. Police said one woman came to the station complaining about the salted peanuts she just bought. She told authorities the peanuts tasted funny, but upon inspection, lawmen quickly determined the woman mistakenly had purchased an unsalted variety. Later, another Salina woman dropped by to show police a mini-candy bar that appeared to have been opened. Again, police solved the case by concluding the candy wrapper had not been sealed properly at the factory.

Now someday (hopefully) I will be an old old woman. I hope I am entertaining. These two women are (probably were) hilarious.

In today's news (really yesterday's)... I bowled a 184 last night. Maybe I am an athlete!
