Headlines and Headgames

I'm not having much luck with headlines this week.

Here's today's example:

"$37b wipe out as shares plunge"

Let's take a trip through my mind, and see what it did to this, and what had me paralytic with mirth before I realized my error:

First, we'll delete a space:

$37b wipe out asshares plunge

And then we'll add one:

$37b wipe out ass hares plunge

Change the spelling of a word:

$37b wipe out ass hairs plunge

Et Voila'!

It's scary being me some days. Really, it is.
