What a bunch of totally excited folks today in Normal, Mn. as they marched to the local cemetary to celebrate the designation of it as a National Tourist Destination.
It seems that Normal, Mn. wanted to get caught up in the craze of creating tourist destinations, but had just one simple problem....the most substantial and the longest lasting structures were in the cemetary---all of the cheap shacks of the treasured forefathers had long been demolished as unfit for human habitation.
If you are thinking of a short daytrip from Garrison, or Lake Winnie, or even St. Cloud, think of making the Normal, Mn. graveyard one of your destination points.....This message brought to you by the Grave Society...a 501(3)c organization dedicated to uplifting and caring.

Tales From Normal, Mn.: National Retailer replaces Personnel Dept with Shredder: Savings Cited: FICTION
Pretty stunned by this text message sent from Normal, Mn.. It seems that a careful behavioral analysis of the workings of the retailer showed that all the resumes submitted for job openings were simply stacked up and then sent to the trash; thus.... it would be more "green" to simply shred them all...same result. In the end, only relatives and friends were hired anyway.
