Fun with Misplaced Modifiers

I was driving down Mayfield Road the other day, listening to NPR, when I nearly broke out in hysterics (a rare occurrence since "Fresh Air" hasn't featured Albert Brooks much lately), when the announcer announced that (wait a minute, I'm going to have to go somewhere to copy and paste this...) Radovan Karadžić had been arrested.
That, in itself, is not especially funny, but she went on to say that he had altered his appearance and had been practicing alternative medicine, and had even written articles for "Healthy Living Under an Assumed Name." Well, that's what I heard.

what she said was he had written articles for "Healthy Living," under an assumed name. Tune in next week, when I will ruin even more jokes!

I like them loose...
