Evening Reading - January 22, 2020

Hey Shacknews, it's time for Evening Reading. Let's officially close out our day of posting. Please take a look.

Terry Jones dies at age 77

Rest in peace, Terry.

Jaboofers everywhere

I got a press release for a thing that Shacknews is sponsoring, and they cut out the part that Shacknews is sponsoring it. Sweet. That is super cool.

Mr. Peanut is also dead

It is with heavy hearts that we confirm that Mr. Peanut has died at 104. In the ultimate selfless act, he sacrificed himself to save his friends when they needed him most. Please pay your respects with #RIPeanut pic.twitter.com/VFnEFod4Zp

It was probably all that salt. We now go to our News Editor TJ Denzer for comment:

Mr Peanut was already dead inside.
