Could we try this one more time?

Correction: Dirty Water lawsuit story - Boston.com: "BOSTON --In a June 9 story about a federal lawsuit by the Standells against Anheuser-Busch Cos. over the use of the 1966 song 'Dirty Water,' The Associated Press erroneously named the songwriter. The song was written by Ed Cobb, not the band."

Are they saying Ed Cobb didn't write the band? Or are they saying the band didn't write the song? OK, I mean, they did say "correction," not "clarification." But still. We don't really need to be using 1966 songs again, do we? Isn't that sort of 40 years ago?

Seems to be a big day for beer news in the Boston Globe. Elsewhere, a researcher claims drinking 17 beers a day would help prevent prostate cancer. Even better if you eat four large pizzas too. Actually 17 beers and four large pizzas a day for any length of time would pretty much prevent anything, wouldn't it? I'm thinking maybe. Or if it didn't, who'd care?
