Tells you ‘bout the plane crash with a gleam in her eye.
It’s interesting when people die, give us dirty laundry.
Did we do the operation? ‘Is the head dead yet?’
You know the boys in the newsroom got a running bet,

The students sure weren’t expecting that, but it did put the class in perspective for them. Hopefully, none of them went into the news biz.
