This belonged in David Letterman's "Small Town News!"

I'm sort of wondering if any news from that paper can be credible.

meant to say Homicide witnesses...

oops

... you can hardly trust what they say?

They may need to talk to a professional.

oh how I hate that word proactive

There's still a way to get "Just the facts, Ma'am."



How do you feel about 'reactive'?

reactive good.
proactive should be 'pre-active.' But once you act you act, not pre- or pro- act.
Just a pet peeve.
Also felt I may have had something to do with it becoming a word. I was making fun of one of my management dudes back in the early 80s and he took the word back to the home office. About two weeks later it was bouncing off the walls. It was meant to be a joke.
