(New and improved? That means we fixed a few typos that were in the print edition. So this is even better, if you can believe it.)
The Final Issue
Here it is, the final issue of 2015, issue #24 of this year, and issue #228 in the Medical Examiner’s long history. The next edition, Issue #229, will be dated January 8, 2016. This may be our best issue yet, beginning with the One-Two punch on page 1: constipation and our can’t fail holiday diet. Does it get any better …
December 4 drops!
Sometimes even I can’t believe how much salubriousness and plain old chocolatey goodness is packed into every 16 page issue of the Medical Examiner. But all anyone has to do to see for themselves is click here:
How did this happen???
The latest issue of the Medical Examiner, dated Friday, October 17, was posted Friday, October 17, on Facebook and on issuu.com (it’s always at issuu.com/medicalexaminer), bit for some reason not here at the Medical Examiner blog. It was probably all the excitement surrounding our Bicentennial (200th) Issue. Let us herewith rectify that oversight immediately.
Extra! Extra! Read all about it!
Hear the sound of that squeaky Schwinn pedaling away? That means your morning paper has arrived, you Most Salubrious Newspaper. In this issue, we ask, “Have we unleashed another Jonestown massacre – every day?” And while we’re on that subject, “As long as the Kool Aid is laced with cyanide, does it really matter what flavor it is?” That being …
Here’s our annual CB radio issue. 10-4?
Just kidding, boys and girls. It’s all about health, wellness, and medicine. If that sounds like a yawner when you were expecting CB radio, then maybe you need to get out more. Health and wellness are, well, like this horse: What’s in this issue? All kinds of cool stuff. Just nothing about CB radio. Sorry!
Today’s Examiner:
Want an extra reason to pore over the pages of this issue (this Issuu)? We can’t find the Mystery Word on any of the copies we’ve looked at, and we know exactly where it is. It’s a printing press thing. It happens sometimes. The online version, on the other hand, is always infinitely clean and crisp, and you can enlarge …
Winner
That would be the operative word (winner) to describe Curtis Dove. That’s because our man Curtis unscrambled the mystery word, then located it fiendishly concealed in the ad for Hammond’s Ferry in the Oct. 21 issue of the Medical Examiner (yeah, the one that had Oct. 4 on every page… that one). For his troubles, like driving all over Hammond’s …
Mystery Word Winner!!!
Did you find the hidden Mystery Word in the Oct. 7 issue, the one with Susan Goodman on the cover? Well, you weren’t the only one. But the only winner, to borrow a word from Charlie Sheen, is Cy Li. The one Cy Li. The only Cy Li. I mean, how many Cy Li‘s do you know? Ten? Five? None? …
Mystery Word Winner!
Congratulations to Highly Supreme and Exalted Word Sleuthster Kelly Highland. He managed to locate the cleverly concealed Mystery Word in the September 16 Medical Examiner. The word was “infirmary,” and it was hidden in the page 7 ad for Wild Wing Cafe. Among other goodies, Kelly scores a $20 Wild Wing gift certificate. There he can order a salad that …
