It's true, I keep a count and thus far the Corpus Christi Caller Times has never run more than 7 original stories the same day. But the reader comments are phenomenal. (Thanks for the tips, Adam and Andy!)
We'll note, CCCT never provided original coverage of Puppygate. But now they published a brief follow up and even that offers some great reader tidbits:
- I can't beleive how much media coverage this stupid mayor and this dust mop for dog gets. CC is really starved for news.
- Let me get this straight... My time and taxpayer money are being wasted by a DOG custody hearing?!?!?!? A FREAKIN DOG!???!!?!? And some mayor who's being accused of DOGNAPPING?!?!?! What in the world is the point of all this?
The mayor of Alice is a thief. The mayor of Alice is a thief. The mayor of Alice is a thief. The mayor of Alice is a thief. Where is the law. In her pocket. Shame, Shame. Shame.
The dog needs therapy now. Call Dr. Phil No! Call Dr. Ruth No! Call the "DOG WHISPER"
Yes!- He dog is not a mut / mutt. The dog is a living being with feelings and endures pain and has a will to live.
- Hotdog! This is so doggone funny!
- LOL She'll get her's for sure!!!!!!!
- FREE PUDDLES!!!
Recently, the Caller Times offered the longest original story of my 5-month time here. What was it about? Man-salons. The bold, bold idea that men could go somewhere other than Supercuts to get a trim, or God-forbid have other procedures done. The comments were gems:
- What a Joke... A hair cut is a hair cut. Who wants to be a foo-fee and get little lotions and a manicure? Real men let their girlfriends cut their hair with the clippers from Wal-Mart. Now THAT"S love. One time when I was cutting my hair at home, my clippers went out so I had to use my dogs clippers and I have to tell you, those worked a heck of a lot better than the ones that are made for humans!! I dont need to go get my hair did to be a "Papi Chulo." I guess I'm one of the lucky ones that doesnt have that unibrow or the neckhair that is almost braidable. You guys go spend your 50 bucks on that hair-do, I'll be waisting mine on some beer and a really good cigar.
- I'll just stick to my Fade City Hiarcut place... I know ya'lll know what I'm talking about... The one that has the commercial with the vato trying to be like lil' john. Has the kids at the sunrise mall saying you need to go to fade city, and then the vato lil john says "wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwhaaaaaaahhhht." We'll note that this comment actually continues at some length, but this bit gives you the drift.
- My personal favorite ever: This is why our @sses will be kicked and the United States will be lost to....Well take your pick...China, Former USSR, Iran, etc.. With women & Dr. Phil complaining about how stupid and terrible men are, they're getting their wish....A world without men. It's all great for them, until some guy in a turbine starts slapping them around and basic feminine hygeine products are banned. No more maxi's when your aunt comes to visit. Um, WHAT? SO AWESOME.
These are cut and pasted. I just couldn't put the [sic]s where they belong. I would be too visually cluttered.
