Sounds Like They Really Mean It....


Attention Townspeople, moms and days, boys and girls, and all you little animals gathered around the radio.....

 Flood warnings are in FULL effect.

 Not 1/2 effect, not 3/4's effect, but by golly, FULL effect. Please make a note of it. 


Why do the kids in the WOWO news room feel the need to add extra adjectives to their news stories? Adding the word FULL is redundant and superfluous. You see, kids, warnings are either IN effect or NOT in effect. Saying they are in FULL effect shows ignorance and inexperience.

 In other WOWO News...

The Maven wonders, is that a FULL cow in the FULL road, and should drivers use FULL caution, or just partial caution?

    Maven, apparently the threat to sue your butt last week, has not been taken seriously.

    Good to hear from you, Mr. Maurer. From what I'm told, it's all a "big misunderstanding". Apparently two employees of a media outlet entertained themselves by composing the caustic email, sending it back and forth with each adding their own spin. Well, in a fit of giggling and youthful play, somehow these geniuses managed to send their draft out into the real world. Not only did the Maven receive a copy, but others in the sender's address book received it. The Maven is amazed that those who work under the protection of the First Amendment, seem to have issues when mere civilians expect the same protections.
