The Headline Writers Are At It Again

I don't know how they, or indeed the good people of Canada, will get to sleep tonight on the back of that horror show.
I'm surprised I haven't stumbled across "USDA slashes corn crop condition ratings from 70% to 69%" yet during my travels today.
I did think "Rooney scores away from home" was a good one this morning though.
