Humorously-Titled Newssheets and Sundry Gazettes



Hello again, so soon! Why are you awkwardly nosing around outside of my estate? Perhaps there is a hobo sign for a kindly woman who gives handouts drawn on my fence. Well, no matter. Let me invite you in for a peanut butter sandwich and a tale or two.

I thought I would subject the Cabinet to a bit of a "Spring clean" today. I ran across some interesting items that I had forgotten, including my collection of Humourously Titled Newsheets and Sundry Gazettes.
