OK....it's time to tell the TRUTH :lol:

Do you purchase any on the grocery store rags? By that I mean National Enquirer, Globe News (the one with BAT BOY!) :lol: :lol:

I stand in line and bust up LAUGHING at the headlines, once in a BLUE moon I'll buy the Globe News just because it's SOoooooooooooo STUPID 8-)

My grandma is a die hard Enquirer reader. Always has been since I was a little girl. And she still buys them. :lol: She also knows most of it is B.S. I think its more for entertainment value.

I actually bought one issue, years ago, so my son and I could laugh at the whole story. The headline said the captain of the Titanic had been found on an iceberg. :lol:

My mother likes the large crossword puzzles and that is the only reason we buy them. Frankly, I like the more bizaare ones about aliens, nostradamus and the end of the world. I can use a laugh.
