Brain vs Heart
Fighting yourself isn't as easy as it seems. It's like being on top of a cliff where my brain will say "Jump" but my heart will counter with "Stop, you're scared". The only time my brain and heart work together is when I have a parachute with me and if a bear is coming towards me. The constant battle between the brain and the heart is like life itself. They can either connect like magnets or go on their separate ways like Paul Walker and Vin Diesel in the Fast and Furious 7 movie.

Fake News Headline Challenge
When it comes to fake news headlines, The Onion remains the undisputed heavyweight champion. Of course I am referring to The Onion in its heyday, back when it still had a hard copy print edition that actually could be delivered to your door or purchased from newstands or paperboxes in large cities around the country (mostly the northeast). Yes, that is how old I am. What remains of The Onion, theonion.com is mostly a sad reminder of those halcyon days of yore. They still sell merchandise featuring some of the classics, but the headlines and stories they crank out today are a far cry from the brilliant, biting, satire and wit of their early to middle years. Of course, it could just be I am too old now to appreciate the humor. In any case, selecting the best of them is really an impossible task. There are just too many to choose from. However, for purposes of this challenge, which is to come up with the best The Onion style fake news headline, I am going to list three of my all time favorites, starting with my absolute favorite first.
