Harrisonburg in The Onion
Brent Finnegan -- November 10th, 2007
It actually has nothing to do with our little city (although the Clerk’s race would have been perfect Onion fodder). As a longtime fan of The Onion, I thought I would pass this story along:
LOCAL BOY TRAPPED IN FAMILY
HARRISONBURG, VA—Rescue workers and concerned neighbors gathered Saturday outside the Conklin residence on Waterson Avenue where authorities say local child David Conklin remains trapped in a dangerously lame family, a harrowing ordeal now entering its 13th tense year.
HAHAHAHAHA!
“People are still uncomfortable with, and often feel threatened by, the idea of a woman slitting open a stranger’s throat and watching him drown in his own blood,” Trisher wrote in her most recent book, Shattering the Blood-Spattered Glass Ceiling.
That was a hilarious “article” that I read after the bored boy story. If you haven’t visited the link finn provided, do it now!
Well who among us has not walked in those shoes. We used to have a very effective solution – get a job.
