Zoo's W&W Headlines 5

Y'know, I really need to write something...though my time is a bit constrained.  I have finals next week (well, I have a lab final tomorrow) and I've been writing papers and studying books and doing this thing called 'learning' quite a bit these last few weeks.  Gettin' pretty annoying, I tell ya.  Hopefully when all's said and done I can get back to actually being creative and stuff...maybe next semester will be more kind with the homework load. :D  Anywho, here's some more headlines...might be kinda long...haven't done one of these in awhile.

Haha, that reminds me...Once upon a time during my motorcycling days there was a motorcycle-slash-carshow event and no motorcycles won a single prize.
