    You'd better stay away from the "Student Bloopers" page (located at 

        <"http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~beej/bloopers.html";> )

because if you don't, it will leave you convulsed with laughter. You'll 
chortle until you choke. Wheezing in the throes of overwhelming mirth, 
you'll collapse on the floor -- to lie helpless in a paroxysm of hilarity.

    Avoid the Student Bloopers at all costs!

newspaper headlines -- headlines like
    * Prostitutes appeal to pope
    * Milk drinkers turn to powder
    * Squad helps dog bite victim
