RWD's News Round-up - Thursday
Hello Everyone, I'm RightWingDuck, Here to share the news. I’d like to start off with a little bit of bad news. Bubba the lobster is dead. There was a lot of controversy when this 22 pound lobster was fished out of the ocean. Some wanted him saved, others boiled. Finally, the restaurant owner donated him to an aquarium – where he died the next day.
Please show at at 7:00 P.M with your mourning bibs. The GlobalFlyer will be touching down after flying around the world without refueling! This is really awesome because at first, they weren’t sure how he had somehow lost about 2,600 pounds of fuel. What’s more embarrassing, he also seems to have lost his luggage! Most of the plane is constructed to hold the fuel. His personal space in the cockpit has just enough room for him to lean back and take cat naps. So not only did he travel around the world – it appears he did it while traveling in coach. You want to really impress me, put a screaming baby in the back row. Then let’s see how he does. To save room, he had to wear a special suit with tubes to carry out body waste. Today the airlines said, “Hmmm. Tell us, how much room did it save him EXACTLY?” Oh, man - I see it coming.
It has a camera so that you can monitor them. You can talk to the child by phone or even monitor through an internet connection. Do I really want that? Aren’t there too many risks? What if it starts downloading spam. “Hi, Billy. What are you doing?” China is accusing the United States of monopolizing the internet. I agree. Control of the internet should belong to its rightful owner & creator – Al Gore! China's One Child policy has created a shortage of women. So the Internet boom has helped fill a vital need – pornography. Government approved, One China, Taiwan isn’t a separate country Pornography. This also fits in with the other government approved pleasure program – the One Hand Policy. Did you hear about this? A man tried to set up a terrorist camp in Arizona. Thankfully, autorities caught on and the heat is really coming down on him. The good news. Well, it’s Arizona – so it’s a dry heat. It would have been good for the economy. After spring training all the tourism just dries up. The Las Vegas mayor is taking a bit of flak for visiting with fourth-graders and encouraging the use of a particular Vodka. Folks. I hate to be a prude about this – but this is so wrong. I don’t believe it’s a mayor’s place to endorse a type of gin. I believe all fourth graders should feel free to choose their own favorite liquor. Isn't it weird hearing moral arguments from Vegas? “Mr. Mayor, my mommy says you shouldn’t talk about alcohol.” Word got out, man. Somebody squealed. You know what this means? Somebody violated the Fourth Grade Code of Honor: What happens in fourth grade stays in fourth grade. The mayor was otherwise very nice on his visit. He read them a story: Heather has Two Mommies- Because the Liquor’s Making Her See Double. Studies show that obese women are more likely to give birth to fraternal twins. Frat twins are wonderful and fun. When they’re born, they can crush a baby bottle against their forehead. Frat twins are so hip they belong to the fraternal order of booboo dada. So, let me understand this. Does the body have so much room it says, “Hey, look at all this space, let’s make twins!” I guess that makes sense. The other day, there was a really, really fat mom that gave birth to twins AND a baby stroller. It’s like a little factory in there!
In all honesty, she might have gained weight. However, she does brag that she can knock out 20 Push-ups in a row. Let me see, Martha returns to her $900,000 a year job, What Success!! Is this what they mean when they say, “She can’t get arrested in this town”? Success means paying your dues - to society. Actually, prison time isn't about repaying your debt to society. It’s about your career and finding your second wind. Saddam’s trial will feature a cage to hold him in place. Some people are saying that this is cruel. I don’t know. Add some disco music and a trapeze and you’ve got the hottest place in Baghdad, baby!! I would love to see a sign on the bars “Please do not feed the dictator.” A big problem has been resolved here in Los Angeles. Disney has agreed to change the finish on the wall of their new Disney Concert Hall. The shiny surface was reflecting so much heat onto a neighboring complex; it was overwhelming their air conditioners. Kind of an odd twist, instead of contractors – Disney will be using animators. If there’s one thing they know how to do is take any finish and make it dull. If they had used Pixar, wow, people would be LINING UP to take a look at that wall.
Yes, I went kind of long today. I'll be away from the computer most of Friday so don't expect a roundup for the day. However, lots of good stuff here. Keep checking back. As always, I can't hear you laugh, so please post your favorite jokes in comments. 18 Responses To "RWD's News Round-up - Thursday"
"So, let me understand this. Does the body have so much room it says, “Hey, look at all this space, let’s make twins!”" I like! wow China is officially bored. "Look at us! we pretty close to North Korea! We plobably really crazy too! pay attention!" I read that article, there are too many big words for it to really be from china. #2 - Posted by: Welshmnky on March 3, 2005 03:45 PM"Word got out, man. Somebody squealed. You know what this means? Somebody violated the Fourth Grade Code of Honor: What happens in fourth grade stays in fourth grade." Unless you stay at Neverland Ranch,then it becomes international headlines. Great stuff,RWD! I think the one about Saddam in a go-go cage was my favorite. "Shake what your Mullah gave ya!" ;) #3 - Posted by: Moe on March 3, 2005 03:54 PMFrat twins are wonderful and fun. When they’re born, they can crush a baby bottle against their forehead. LOL, I also liked: I would love to see a sign on the bars “Please do not feed the dictator.” Good stuff RWD! #4 - Posted by: Good 'Ol Boy on March 3, 2005 03:54 PM"Kind of an odd twist, instead of contractors – Disney will be using animators. If there’s one thing they know how to do is take any finish and make it dull." So true. And sad, yet... hilarious. #5 - Posted by: Tracey on March 3, 2005 03:59 PM"Thankfully, autorities caught on and the heat is really coming down on him. The good news. Well, it’s Arizona – so it’s a dry heat." #6 - Posted by: Matt on March 3, 2005 04:07 PM"Please do not feed the dictator." I love it. #7 - Posted by: Ann on March 3, 2005 04:39 PMAsk me, some of those were good enough for a late night TV monologue. I'm serious. #8 - Posted by: David Gillies on March 3, 2005 05:08 PMThanks David. Which ones :) See, this is why I ask for comments. It helps me sort the duds from the goods ones. #9 - Posted by: RightWingDuck on March 3, 2005 05:19 PMIt's all good (I agree, late-night quality) but the Disney bit was the best. #10 - Posted by: Wacky Hermit on March 3, 2005 05:56 PMMaybe we could show up at 7:00 AM with our morning bibs... #11 - Posted by: the_brick on March 3, 2005 07:39 PM...don't feed the dictator. The simple ones hit hardest. :) #12 - Posted by: HeatherF on March 3, 2005 08:37 PMI think Bubba the lobster died of humiliation. The rube bands he has on his claws look to be the same as the ones on the little brother. I think MS teddy bear would scare the pants off of some kids. Or more corectly, I would scare the pants off of the kids. "Timmy, Daddy is trapped inside Mr Fuzzy!" "Mary, I know what you did last summer..." "Actually, prison time isn't about repaying your debt to society. It’s about your career and finding your second wind." Way too true, I have seen woman just about fight over guys that got out of the slammer. #13 - Posted by: dark_indy on March 3, 2005 08:55 PM"The mayor was otherwise very nice on his visit. He read them a story: Heather has Two Mommies- Because the Liquor’s Making Her See Double." This one :-) #14 - Posted by: Kirsten on March 3, 2005 10:55 PMI'm with Adrianne and Tracy - good stuff, RWD. #15 - Posted by: songstress7 on March 3, 2005 11:38 PMRegarding Bubba - Wholey's (the place that donated him to the zoo) is a grocery store, not a restaurant. Also, making the local news here in Pittsburgh, there is currently a shrine to Bubba outside of Wholey's, complete with candles, toy lobsters, and kid-drawn pictures of lobsters - including one self-portrait of a kid holding hands with Bubba. Also - loved the "Please don't feed the dictator". Keep up the good work. I look forward to your column every day. #16 - Posted by: Jon on March 3, 2005 11:49 PMHarvey, I need some help... Is Dan Rather a serial killer? The eyes are really freakin wierd man... #17 - Posted by: Littl Stevie on March 4, 2005 07:41 AM...dry heat. I love it! #18 - Posted by: Todd E on March 4, 2005 09:13 AMPost a comment
