   this guy clearly hasn't seen the masthead...i count one literal and a gaggle of figuratives...present company included.

   I'm wondering if the letter-writer would admit that he's got balls?

   I don't understand what all the fuss is about; the outrage should be directed towards Marion Barry, not the CP. I disagree with the City Paper on some things, but thought that cover was totally fine.

   Mr. Wemple, I think you got next week's cover!

   I'm with Amanda -- Eric has both balls and a stiff one. :)

   This headline is easier to explain to little inquiring minds than the two bodies in bed for the "Screw U." cover. Explanation -- "It something that adults do when they're in love" Response, "Oh, OoooKay" That was it, no follow up questions, nothin'.

   A picture of a person who is now dead results in the, "How did he die Daddy? Why did they do that Daddy?" Lots of questions. That's worse in my opinion

   In keeping with Dave McKenna's line of thinking, can someone please, please make a Sara Dick joke?

   Sara reports to the business side, so if the sign refers to her, it's correct.

   Can any former girlfriends confirm this?

    I think Erik wrote this sign himself just so he could go around the CP offices saying "Yeah, but I've got a huge pair of balls!"
