The Enquirer covered on OTM? Isn't this a sign of the Apocalypse?

A great (and I suspect humorous) follow up would be for Brooke to quickly report back whether the story was, in fact, fiction.

Two thoughts: at Ledgewood Rehabilitation (for my broken hip last winter) a nurse's aide there is named Utopia and, if one were not obsessed with physical beauty, her spirit filled the bill whereas the firm, Utopia Home Care, Inc, with an office in the senior and disabled complex where I now reside, had one of their promotional take-away coffee mugs show up at our nearby Goodwill Store which I bought only to discover that it will only deliver liquid while poured directly downwardly resulting in gulping scalding hot coffee. Not exactly a Utopian outcome.
