Here's the challenge...what headline would you like to read - it cannot include YOU or anyone here at PiP..make it REAL

for example:

quote:

RON CARNELL WINS NOBEL PRIZE
Famous poet, novelist, webmaster unanimous winner

Ok..your turn....

Cancer--Cured <---pitiful text, eh? I was finally gonna try to do the bold stuff, and pffft...page not available...

And? Since it's my dream headline? I would like that date retroactive as far back as possible, but at the very least to April, of 2001.

WORLD PEACE HAS FINALLY HAPPENED
from this day forth NO MORE WARS

I would rather have one breath of his hair,
one kiss of his mouth,
one touch of his hand
than an eternity without it.
