The Irregular Suite
From the Nov. 14 issue of the Original Irregular, a weekly newspaper published in Kingfield:
“The board voted to follow suite to support the appeal …. Morse stated in his drive to support the resolution that the SBA “voted 110 to 8 to support the appeal of the law” and went onto make a pitch for the board to follow suite.”
(Is this suite they’re following the place where the suits hang out?)

Reader Comments:
Doesn't the Media Mutt have bigger fish to fry than the Original Irregular? How about taking the sharp pencil to Chris Busby's latest "gossip" entries? Or would such scrutiny be akin to biting one's master?
I read Busby's "gossip" items in the Bollard. They were clearly labled "gossip." If he'd stuck that stuff in a news story, he might deserve to be bitten.
As for frying the Irregular on a regular basis, lighten up, dude. There's not enough unintentional humor in the world.
You're right, they were clearly labeled gossip. It's a good thing he deploys those little labels because otherwise the content would be pretty hard to distinguish from his news items. Perhaps editorializing in the latter is HIS attempt at unintentional humor.
BTW, fry away ...
