IJN to be inspected for cracks

The International Journal of Nonsense is to be closely inspected for cracks.

Some cracks have already been found and so a full inspection will be carried out for safety reasons. The IJN will continue to publish during the inspection.

We don't want to lose money just because of a few cracks, said Editor Horse McRacing. There is only a very small chance of the cracks suddenly splitting the journal wide open and killing everyone who is reading it. That is a risk we are willing to take, although the staff of the IJN have been moved to a bunker under the Catford Downs as a precaution.

Aesthetic jam threat

The European Union wants to redesignate certain British jam as paint after it was found to contain mostly colouring and paint.

The Aesthetic Jam Co says the only way to get jam to tone perfectly with people's kitchen colour schemes is to add quantities of paint.

People who demand beige jam to match their kitchen have to expect a little variation in the recipe, said Jim Spread of the Aesthetic Jam Co.

The Aesthetic Jam Co admits jam made mostly from paint is likely to taste a little painty.
