Correction!!!!

In this blogging game, you are only as good as the news organization you siphon resources from. Last week I brought to you a tale of potentially heartwarming redemption involving Paris Hilton and a bunch of elephants who can't handle their liquor. The Associated Press has now confirmed reporting on this story was faulty. Paris Hilton never quasi-eloquently expressed concern for the binge drinking elephants of India's Assam and Meghalaya regions, as the AP had reported.

In fact Paris Hilton couldn’t find Assam and Meghalaya on a clearly marked map of only Assam and Meghalaya. She thinks "India" is that ethnic girl who works at the Starbucks on Wilshire, and "elephant" is a derogatory term for a woman weighing more than 140 pounds. I'm sorry I suggested otherwise.
