At least *Huckabee* got the joke
February 25, 2008 By: almostgotit Category: humor, jokes, writingHumor and intelligence: one of our newspaper’s AP syndicaters seems to lack both. (I’m referring to the the source of those brief celebrity bits that our local paper always has on page two.. once they had Tony Blair married to Queen Elizabeth, attending an event with their son Prince Phillip. I’ve clipped & saved that “totally dumb Americans” column for all eternity….)
Anyway, they had one today about Mike Huckabee’s Saturday Night Live appearance over the weekend. The paper was crowing about how ironically clueless he is… he was on the “Weekend Update” segment (the skit where they all play news achors) and Huckabee announced he was staying in the prez race but wouldn’t overstay his welcome if the time came to leave. And then the skit moved on but Huckabee wouldn’t get off the stage, despite “repeated cues” from other cast members.
Um… hello? That’s called COMEDY, people???

We unsubscribed from said publication, because our neighbors kept stealing it.

Drat those redneck country neighbors. Why don’t you move back to town and just get carjacked like regular folk?

Did I ever tell you about my neighbor here who made a special trip to my house to accuse me of stealing his cat with a defective bladder who pees all over the house? Maybe I do want to be carjacked…at least it would make sense!

Truevyne, I think you are channelling Flannery O’Connor. I hope you are writing all of this down in your notebook between goat milkings..
