It Gets Funnier Every Time ...

[Media] I love this story in the D-News about a deal between Davis County schools and Scholastic books to keep a new J.K. Rowling book under wraps until Dec. 4:

Tuesday, Davis County commissioners quickly approved the contract with Scholastic.

"We don't want a spell cast on us," said Commissioner Bret Millburn, reprising the joke he made in 2007.

(Presumably, the other commissioners then "reprised" their eye-rolling and forced, polite laughter.)

I love the fact that Joseph Dougherty remembered Milburn making the same half-assed "joke" a year and a half ago. Reading between the lines, you sort of get the feeling Dougherty didn't think much of it then, either.

  1. Reading between the lines, I sort of get the feeling Brandon Burt doesn't have much to do these days.
