Brothel gives college class a group rate

Idaho has covered up some prominent lawn graffiti: a phallic symbol decorating a hillside next to the governor’s mansion.

The graffiti dates back to last summer, but state officials kept it for a while, thinking it was an arrow pointing Sen. Larry Craig’s way when he visits.

Wide-eyed and eager to learn, students at Randolph College in Virginia took a field trip to a Nevada brothel.

American Culture students at the tiny liberal arts school attended seminars given by prostitutes. Topics included “Preventing Politicians From Leaving Paper Trails.”

The class was actually very practical. Students got to see firsthand what kind of careers are available right now to American Culture majors at tiny liberal arts schools.

A woman agreed to move out of her home filled with hundreds of rats she called her “friends.” It wasn’t too hard to convince her to go, but her suspiciously plump cat fought the move like you wouldn’t believe.

Vanilla Ice spent a night in jail after being arrested on a battery charge. His crimes against pop music continue to go unpunished.
