I've silently giggled or quietly chuckled along with Har-de-har-har for a long time now, but until today, I've never laughed openly & out loud - these are awesome! Thanks for cheering up my mood - I forgot how good it feels to laugh!

One of my toughest days in a long time - very stressful. You brightened it up, HRQ.

Columnist Dave Barry has funny headlines in his Sunday Globe column a couple of times a year and I love reading them. Thanks for the laugh xhugs .

I've seen a good number of these before, maybe even previously in Har de Har Har. But still made me laugh! Thanks, I needed that today.

HRQ, I really appreciate those because I've spent most of my career in jobs where I wrote headlines. I like the Columbia Journalism Review, which is famous for its monthly collection of newspaper headlines that are unintentionally funny. Here are a few:

- School bans all kinds of nuts on campus

- Rollins sets out to forge identity

- For mayor and council, baby steps toward budget deal

- Grandmother of six shoots hole in one
