Where was Frank?

MissingSome of you noticed that Frank wasn’t here yesterday. Some of you were concerned. I mean, without your U.S. Recommended Daily Allowance of Frank J., what would you do?

Well, you made it through the day. Barely. But, that still leaves the question: Where’s Frank?

So, to test your IMAO knowledge, we’ve prepared a list of possible explanations for Frank’s disappearance, one of which is the real answer:

  • His alarm clock didn’t go off.
  • He was on a secret mission to Korea, to kick that obnoxious guy’s butt.
  • And by “obnoxious guy” in Korea, we mean PSY.
  • Selling his books door-to-door.
  • Meeting with the Russians to plan delivery of a nuke to the moon.
  • Opening a Mexican Stoplight Candy franchise.
  • Filming a cameo appearance in the new Larry the Cable Guy movie.
  • Meeting with NBC to discuss taking over The Tonight Show in three years.
  • Lost his password.
  • Sarah K was craving Chicago-style pizza. And it’s 1,696 miles from Boise to Gino’s.
  • He needed a break.
  • We needed a break.

Okay, maybe none of them is the real reason. I mean, seriously, how would I know? Like Frank has to check in with me.

Still, one of them could be right. But probably not. What do you think? Just where was Frank?

    » He spilled his milk on his laptop.

    » His concealed carry permit expired and he couldn’t get out of bed.

  2. I think Jimmy and DamnCat may be on to something with the tax day coincidence.

    Responsible impulse to pay exorbitant taxes exactly cancelled out an equally responsible impulse NOT to pay exorbitant taxes, like a wave function, or like matter vs. antimatter, caused him to pop audibly out of existence. Only his knowledge of the Higgs boson saved him and allowed him to return. And Obama’s stupidity.

  3. Frank needed to take a hippy punching break. And, as with playing Call of Duty, once you get started…

  4. .. which reminds me: at some point in the past I was going to make a “khat” joke, and I saw this in Wikipedia:

    “cathinone and cathine have a very similar molecular structure to amphetamine. Khat is sometimes confused with methcathinone (also known as cat), a Schedule I substance. . . The khat plant is known by a variety of names, such as qat and gat in Yemen, qaat and jaad in Somalia, and chat in Ethiopia. It is also known as jimma in the Oromo language.”

    Jimma!
