I swear I heard this on an NPR report last night, regarding the devastation of the tornadoes in the midwest last weekend -- one of the towns was home to a Pringles potato chip factory, which was heavily damaged or destroyed and may not open again for months: "Already, the closing of the Pringles factory is having a ripple effect."
Whoever wrote that, you should be ashamed. Potato chip humor is just not appropriate at this time. (The ripple effect, by the way, was layoffs at the factory that makes the cans for Pringles. I guess we're lucky the reporter didn't say the workers were canned. Very lucky.)
Mr. Johnson is pleased to report the name of the town is not "Ruffles, Missouri."
