Headline: 'Rip off' mayor elected
Summary: A Croatian politician has been swept to power after promising voters he would rip them off at every opportunity.
Bare-faced Josko Risa was voted in as mayor in Prolozac with a landslide victory using the slogan: "All for me - nothing for you."
Miggy's take: Now there's a guy who believes in truth in advertising. Reminds me of that movie (didn't see it,
don't remember the name) about the ad guys making brutally honest commericals. As funny as it may seem, most
campaigns run more like this: the candidates lie during the campaign, and everyone knows they're lying. But
if they were to tell the truth of what they'd do if elected, which everyone knows anyway, no one would
vote for them! Makes sense, huh?

Headline: Simpson named suspect in casino break-in
Summary: OJ Simpson claims he's innocent of breaking into a Las Vegas hotel room and robbing man at gunpoint.
Miggy's take: This time, I believe him. Everyone knows OJ uses knives.

Toss the newspaper back onto the coffee table when you're done.
