'SIUE students accused of burning man with hot cookies'

(State Journal-Register; 11/07/2007)

I love hot cookies -- particularly when they contain delicious, sensuously melting chocolate chips. That's why I was devastated when a co-worker pointed me in the direction of this headline.

I feel heartsick that something so wonderful, so pure, so perfect has now at least one link with violence. Now, I have to be on the lookout for similarly innocence-smashing headlines as "Area woman bludgeoned by puppy" or "Man suffers seizure while watching Milla Jovovich film."
