Jenkins sustained a sprained wrist in a jolly victory last Sunday. The Jasonia Llamas pounded the Fremont Doggers in overtime at the Jasonia stadium. While going for the ultimate glory play, Ingmar Horat collided with Alan Lesser, crushing his wrist.
Dr. Carrow told reporters that Jenkins would be out for at least 3 weeks, meaning he would miss the Llamas's critical game against Wichita. When asked if this would hamper Jasonia's chances of winning, Coach Bremer observed, "Jenkins is one of the best players in rugby, but it takes more than one man to make a team and I know our boys can pull it off."
Jasonia knows no limits! The city's population has ballooned to over 120,000.
Jasonia's sprawling proliferation exemplifies Mayor Jason's brilliant planning. The mayor has been tending the municipality's desires from day three.
Like all good cities this size, Jasonia is now in a position to consider adding arcologies--those majestic cities within a town that loom on the horizon promising the nice life. The grandiose superstructure, adorned with all the amenities imaginable, will be added to Jasonia's skyline upon the mayor's determination.
After the incident, mayor Larson of Farmington observed that his car was unusually dirty and promised to wash it within the week.
"Analyzing the situation humbly," a Jasonia trophy maker blurted, "You've got to admit worse things have happened."
The Dogs, a bright street gang has changed coats this week. Recognizing the trend towards law and order, the group has volunteered to patrol the avenues after dark to assist local police forces. "We're happy to see young people turned around like this," stated police captain Leila Schneider.

The medical expert, in what is called the "Jack Sprat Plan" also stressed the importance of a low-fat diet, including, but by no means limited to hamster tongues. Yoga is also a part of the plan, but some of the roller bladers on the plan protested on grounds that doctors go ahead with cures using cat hormones.

Dear MisSim,
I found that last article to be actively offensive and lacking in any unexpectedly redeeming content. I desire an apology! Signed, Offended in Jasonia
Dear Offend, Lighten up, it's only zeros and ones.
Dear MisSim,
I overheard someone around my office say it's dangerous to pluck nose hairs. I was too embarrassed to ask her for more information. But, is that true? Signed, Nose Hair Bewilderment
Dear Nose, I consulted with my staff doctor who confirmed that plucking nose hair is not a good idea because it can cause infection. Besides, that's gross.
In a most magnanimous game last Sunday in Dullsville, the Aeros and Doggers tied, or they should have been. Guthrie sent the ball out of the ballpark, which in itself wasn't so vicious. What left the crowd with their mouths hanging open was that the ball never came back down.
Attempting to retrieve it, Lloyd and Taylor cleans, landing them airborne as well. Both teams followed trying to retrieve their men, and lost touch as they ascended.

"What's the difference between Chicago and Turkestan?" Asked business tycoon Francis Weiss of Chicago in a recent press conference, "Plymouth Arco!!" He gloated.

"The introduction of Plymouth Arco into Chicago is just the beginning. We will see Plymouth Arco spread to all corners of the earth. Why, I'll probably even have Plymouth Arco at the White House when I'm there, heh, heh. Ahem. Just kidding, of course."
A new survey by the esteemed Young Labs was released today emphasizing the importance of delusions. The survey focuses on identification and treatment of delusions.

When asked his opinion, the mayor asserted "No sir, I don't like it." He later exclaimed, "Please don't quote me on that."
Pfsr. Edward, the renowned inventor of the ear candle has announced a breakthrough of astounding import. After three years of painstaking research, Dr. Edward has perfected the aeroplane.
Painfully being installed in Edward's home city, scientists predict that the aeroplane will soon be found in cities across the SimNation. "Its utility to the municipality should be obvious," declares Gumbolt Labs.
When asked what next, Pfsr. Edward mentioned his research into midget widgets and unexpectedly predicted results for later this decade.
A spokesman for the family called a press conference, but was late. One reporter stayed behind to berate the spokesman.
Cat watchers from across SimNation gathered in Jasonia this week to observe the semi-bi-annual migration of the wild slippery cat. "It's hard to find slippery cat anymore," stated Ichiko Greene head of the Cute Cat League, "they are so timid and sensitive. Noise and pollution drive them away."
Greene went on to point out the natural range of the slippery cat has shrunk in recent years. "The few remaining cats are converging on Jasonia due to its low noise and clean air."
Lawyers are still debating all ramifications, but should have a decisive conclusion after many test cases.

A recent council meeting unearthed an organic urge in many of Jasonia's locals. 184 inhabitants showed up to express their want for a park in Jasonia. "Our municipality has a lot to offer, but its lack of park space is a definite drawback," said one cranky attendee.
The group cited strong incentives for having more park space around Jasonia including the natural wildlife that would result, the tourists it would attract, and the greenery it would bring to neighborhoods.
Younger Jasonia inhabitants wrote letters to Mayor Jason expressing their budding interest in parks for Jasonia. "I like swings," exclaimed one kinky young gambler.
