Top Cutlines:

• 2. Citing many injuries experienced when falling off of his high horse, Grissom chooses the low road, which is injury free if you don’t insert a coin — Herb.
• 3. Jim Brannon trying to get out of town with the only thing he has left, found himself at the tail end of the CdA St Patrick’s Day parade led by Mr. Kennedy — CoeurGenX.
