End of Day Odds & Ends: Aerialist Injured, Dead Resurrected, Busey Disrespected, Ninjas Dissected

Hunky Santa

As we close in on Miller Time around these parts, here’s a round up of a few of the day’s top stories that for one reason or another your humble editors considered–but ultimately rejected–for individual posts today.

Aerialist Injured at Beverly Center

Our condolences to the injured aerialist. (Watch for my new band, coincidentally, also called Injured Aerialists. We kind of sound like late-early Radiohead.) Let us join in the chorus–the Hunky Santa and the Candy Cane Girls show must go on! And, apparently, it will, this Friday.
