Funny, funny . . .

Funny 1: Chi Trib head, p-1, about heavy snow in Mich. City, IN:
"Snow's White Dwarfs Town"
Funny 2, in not same way: Obit writer says deceased "had a plethora of hobbies," intending to say nothing bad about the dead. But a plethora is too much,"an excessive amount," as in a plethora of complaints. One is reminded of the golden moment of moviemaking when El Guapo's lieutenant in "Three Amigos" laughed at the word and El Guapo asked him what it meant. to the lieutenant's chagrin.
