Hello the list.
My attention was first drawn to this headline in a local (Stratford, CT) paper
because of the faulty possessive noun and the interesting choice of singular
verb.
BUT my attention was then rewarded by realizing that this sports headline
manages to use two words (out of a total of five) that also are items of
women's historical costume.
So I thought you would all enjoy pondering this:
STRATFORD GIRLS HOOPS STAYS UNBEATEN
For those of you unfamiliar with American sports lingo, the Girls' Basketball
Team of Stratford High School continues its winning streak.
