Is it because I'm squinting my eyes and looking at

Uh-oh. Nilly's locked up. Someone reboot her....

tommy, I was sure all the words I put there were indeed there, and then they were gone. There's a words-stealing monster loose on the Phoenix board. Either that, or this week is catching up with me and my tiredness is showing. I think I prefer the monster option.

While the words-stealing monster is the most probable scenario, it's also possible that the URL you entered was originally incorrect - sometimes that'll kill everything that comes after....

Nope. Quite impossible. I used the same "paste" that follows the one "copy link address" on the post that kept the link.

Australia gets all the best political scandals. TROUBLED WA Opposition leader Troy Buswell has broken down in tears at a press conference and admitted he sniffed the chair of a female Liberal Party staffer. (The Liberal Party in Australia is politically conservative.)

The scandal follows an admission by the Liberal leader earlier this year that he had snapped open the bra of a Labor staffer.

wtf?

Wasn't the Australian Prime Minister caught up in some earwax-eating scandal?

I actually was just thinking about this. But I might need more normal person styles.
