Tabloid Newspaper Discovers Basic Science

Whacky journo types at the Super Soaraway Sun (as it used to be known when I was a lad) have discovered that you can turn VEGETABLES into BATTERIES.

Sun senior editors, average age 57, found that they could fill a few precious inches of newsprint with a story of a man who recharges his iPod with an onion, a technique well documented in school-level science for donkeys years.

An onlooker said: “If they hadn’t been able to get an iPod angle on it, they’d never have considered it as a story at all.

“But anything iPod is worth a hundred words here and there, mainly because everyone in the newsroom owns one.”
