Oh, man! WV is just tearing up the media lately. Or should that be cracking up? In other news, makers of cultural literacy dictionaries have found a new picture to accompany the entry for “slippery slope”.
In other, other news, Five Deer Leap to their Deaths in Charles Town. This article contains a couple of gems. First there’s the phrase “For reasons that mystify authorities.” Who are the authorities on why deer might leap to their deaths? And why are they so mystified when this should case should be their finest hour? I guess we’ll never know, since “the carcasses were handed out to passers-by for butchering.” I wonder how many people had to walk by before the cops found the butchering capacity for five deer. Less than ten is my guess.
This also reminds me of a pet-peeve that I though I had escaped by moving a continent away. Why do people abbreviate West Virginia as “W.Va.”? What’s wrong with WV, just like you abbreviate every other state’s name? When you are driving to Morgantown, there is even an exit sign that says “Univ. of W. Va.” even though there is no such thing. What gives?
