Quick Links: Giant Pawprints Puzzle Couple, etc.
Giant Pawprints Puzzle CoupleMr and Mrs May, of Ipswich, are mystified by a set of large pawprints, seemingly of an animal with claws or toes, which have appeared in their garden.
Maybe it's Bernard.
Drivers Buy Fake Emblems
Increasing numbers of car owners are going to dealers, or to eBay, to buy emblems to make their cars look like more expensive versions.
Fake Breastfeeding Picture of ABC Anchor
Elizabeth Vargas was disappointed that the magazine Marie Claire photoshopped her head onto a picture of a model breastfeeding at the anchor desk. The photograph was to illustrate an article on balancing work and motherhood.

In my neighborhood, if you're smart, you try to make your car look less expensive, not more. Why try to turn your ride into a magnet for car thieves?

I picked up a Porsche hood emblem in their factory and took it home, where I stuck it onto the front of my old bicycle. It puzzled a few people.
"Yeah, it's the new Porsche ten-speed. It's a prototype model for their next line of vehicles. They're really pushing for fuel efficiency these days, you know."

I once owned a Mercury Escort--I replaced a dented hood with a junkyard hood from a Topaz but left the Merc emblem in place.
I referred to the process as "pimpling" my ride.

That has been happening here for a while already. Some people here rebrand their Protons (a local car) as Mitsubishis, mainly because 1. Protons use Mitsubishi engines, and 2. Apart from the engine, everything else on it is sorta flawed (I'd like to run over the idiot who designed their latest car's interior. It has the wiper and light controls of a left hand drive car, but car itself is a right-hand drive. The net result? I nearly ran into another car after panicking when I wanted to turn on the headlights but ending up turning on the wiper instead when I drove it for the first time).

Well said.
I saw the pawprints on the forums and the first thing I thought was "It's Bernard".
Also,qouth the quick links "seemingly an animal with claws or toes" well what animals that grow that size in Ipswitch don't have them?It could be anything.Also, it does not mention the actually length of the footprints.And look again at the Bernard story.The story sounds suspiciously like the pictures may have been tampered with.

"seemingly an animal with claws or toes"
Well, I guess that rules out snakes, whales, or fishes.
