Have you ever been reading the paper or looking at a sign or something, and the words get a little jumbled up in your head and you end up reading it completely different from what it really says? Well I just finished checking out cnn.com and saw these two articles stacked on top of each other:
Kansas woman gives birth to sextuplets
Bush: Saddam Hussein must go
Of course, being the freak that I am, I jumbled it up into a headline which I think would make for much more interesting news. Anyway, it made me giggle and so here’s an excerpt from my own news story:
Saddam Hussein gives birth to sextuplets
Baghdad, Iraq (AP) — Saddam Hussein, Iraqi dictator and fertility patient, gave birth to three boys and three girls in Baghdad’s Ibn Al Khatib Hospital on Saturday. President Hussein’s cesarean section is only the 96th such birth worldwide in the last 100 years.
“Mother is resting, but is otherwise in fine condition,” reports Obstetrician Qusayy al-Hadithi, “especially considering the babies were delivered some nine weeks shy of full term.” Dr. al-Hadithi went on to detail the weights of the infants, ranging from 2 pounds 10 ounces to 3 pounds 11 ounces. Currently four of the six are on respirators, and the other two are on oxygen. Despite these precautions, the children are reportedly doing well.
After several failed attempts to produce another male heir to his empire, Hussein began using fertility drugs to increase his chances of conception. Although multiple births of this magnitude can be risky, Hussein was reportedly “overjoyed” at the news.
The infants will remain in the hospital under observation for another four to six weeks. President Hussein is expected to return to the presidential palace next week.
