BONERS ROUND ONE

Boner Candidate #1: IT’S OKAY; THESE DAYS MY FINGERS ALWAYS TASTE LIKE HAND SANITIZER

KFC is cleaning up its image … the fried chicken chain is ditching its famous slogan due to the raging pandemic. Colonel Sanders will no longer be hawking his secret recipe for fried chicken as “finger lickin’ good” … KFC says it’s suspending the slogan after 64 years. The move came Monday, nearly 6 months after the novel coronavirus started sweeping the globe and health officials started urging people to stop touching their faces to slow the spread. Better late than never?!? KFC says finger-licking “doesn’t feel quite right” in today’s environment and it’s dropping the slogan in many countries. Across the pond in the United Kingdom and Ireland, KFC is simply blurring out the “finger lickin'” part of the slogan on buckets of chicken … as opposed to scrubbing the phase entirely. The good ole’, finger-licking days will come back eventually — KFC says its famous phrase will return when the timing is right. Let’s go, scientists … hurry up with that vaccine!!!

Boner Candidate #2: FIRE BUGS IN UTAH

SALT LAKE CITY — Although lightning storms across central and southern Utah sparked numerous fires over the past few days, human-caused fires continue to dominate wildfire statistics in 2020. According to Utah Forestry, Fire and State Lands, as of August 23, nearly 196,000 acres have burned across the state. The amount of fire starts are relatively comparable to 2018, which is touted as Utah’s busiest fire season. Human-caused fires have amounted to 77 percent of all fires in Utah so far in 2020. “We’re still having an all-time high of human-caused starts in Utah this year,” said Kait Webb with Utah Forestry, Fire and State Lands. “We had a very busy year during 2018 — there were a lot of fires and some very memorable large fires, so it was a very busy season. And this year so far, we’re about comparable, just behind on total starts compared to 2018 but again we’re still well ahead with human-caused starts as a total.”

Boner Candidate #3: NO MASK MONDAY

ENTERPRISE — In Washington County, some people were calling for “No Mask Monday” to protest mandatory masks in schools, but many students did not like the idea. Some Enterprise High School students were afraid the entire school would be shut down if enough students showed up without masks. Because of the state mandate, students who refuse to wear a mask must be sent home. That applies to every school in Utah. Instead, students decided to protest the protest, and it worked. Cheerleader Dallee Cobb was one of those students. She stood up at Friday night’s football game in front of the crowd and her fellow students, asking them to mask up.
