WEDNESDAY'S HUM ( 4-26-06 )

THERE WILL BE NO SALVAGING OF PRIDE
Funny haha story from CAX this morn. Salvage yard owner in East Montpelier sick of people ripping him off so he stays up all night in yard waiting for leeches. Sure enough, thief comes along and is caught in the act by the salvage yard owner, who zaps him with a paint gun. Thief flees, but is caught by police 'cuz he has paint all over him! Too much.

EQUAL SCHMEQUAL
Possibly one of the best explanations we have heard disputing lack of equal pay theory for women. Local blog extraordinaire She's Right explains it here.

GASSY EDITION
The best hour on local radio is upon us again with VPR's Vermont Edition following the noon news. Today the subject will be gas, gas and more gas, which, gosh, certainly is topical. But then again, Steve Zind could do an hour show on ' how they coat telephone poles ' and make it interesting.

FIVE CORNERS UPDATE
We waited for so long at the Essex Junction Five Corners Light yesterday that a local cop came along and arrested us for loitering! When I tried to explain that I was waiting for the light to change, the cop just laughed and said, " That's life in the Junction, Baby!"
