It had us LOLing, and I'm sure it will you, as well.

I'm not sure that's not a joke paper...I mean, the other top stories are about a Harry Potter appreciation club and a column about pubic hair...

The pubic hair column was written in 2004; it just seems to get a lot of residual traffic. The paper doesn't seem to get a lot of internet repostings (which is what gauges the popularity, I'm guessing).

2004 was a great year for pubic hair - it saw the end of Brazilian tyranny, and the resurgence of the Hitler moustache.

Yes, the good old days, before the surprise resurgence of the merkin.

I look forward to the demise of low-slung jeans, and the occasional accompanying cry of "Ooh, nice Dali!"

HA! I read this initially as "I look forward to low-slung jeans, and the occasional accompanying cry of 'Ooh, nice Dali'!"

Totally different image!
