| Newswrap: June 13 - Nov 20, 2003 by Dan Browder
| az wraps all the news that's fit to wrap. Is it paper or plastic?
| I guess that depends on whether you're from the United States or
| not. But it's the same: light-and-flaky outside, chewy-gooey
| inside once the wrapping's off, that's for sure. Dip in!
