Area Puppy Still Recovering From July 4th Bash
A local shih-tzu named Alice is still a bit groggy two days after what neighbors are calling “an Independence Day blowout” of a party.
“It was absolutely off the hook,” says Simon Essex, one of the attendees. “There was a pool with a water slide, fireworks launching, BBQ, a live band, bouncy castle – Alice throws the best parties.”
But not all area residents were keen on the festivities. County police were called several times with noise complaints.
“We passed by and told Alice to lower the volume on the band and keep the fireworks to a minimum,” says officer Sam Ozluski. “But, everyone’s making a ton of noise on the 4th. It’s hard to really police it.”

Monkey Family Hits Road Block on Summer Holiday
A family of white crested mangabeys set out on a road trip for the July 4th holiday, only to have their minivan break down somewhere outside Columbus, OH.
“They were trying to get to Sea World Ohio,” says Kip Nelson, a gas station attendant who changed a tire for the family’s car. “But that park closed down back in 2001. Either their guide books are out of date, or they don’t use the Internet.”
The monkeys are reportedly back on the road, and sources on the ground say they’ve revised their plan and are now heading for Adventureland in Addison, IL.
“Too bad that closed down in 1977,” Nelson added.
