JOKES OF THE DAY!

Monday, February 6, 2012
Little Debbie Is Joe Camel In A Dress! - Two doctors used the journal Nature to argue that the government should step in and regulate sugar the way it regulates tobacco and alcohol. They say 35 million people a year die from chronic diseases caused by tobacco, alcohol and obesity; and like the other two, sugar is toxic and addictive, it negatively impacts society, there's potential for abuse, and it's unavoidable because it's everywhere. So to save lives and health care costs, the government should regulate sugar in ways similar to tobacco and alcohol, including taxes, age restrictions and other policies. The Sugar Association disputed their science and said they're confident Americans are perfectly capable of choosing the right foods without having unreasonable bans and regulations imposed on them.

* Really? What evidence do they have of that?

* That's ridiculous! We need unreasonable bans and regulations on everything!

* Also, government bans and regulations are toxic and addictive, they negatively impact society, there's potential for abuse and they're unavoidable because they're everywhere.

* All I can say is that if they take away my snack cakes, I'm really gonna need a cigarette.

* If you thought the Prohibition of alcohol didn't work, wait until they try to keep Americans from eating sugar!

* I just hope that someday, science discovers that telling other people what they can eat, drink and smoke causes cancer.

Marry A Ship; Those Are Always A She - Occupy Seattle protester Babylonia Aivaz wanted to protest the gentrification of her neighborhood. So she put on a puffy dress and held a ceremony to marry a 107-year-old abandoned building that was slated for demolition. She likened her human-building union to "gay marriage," which didn't go over well with the gay magazine, Instinct. The editors wrote, "Why is this like 'gay marriage'...? Because, we'll marry horses and dogs and oxen next? Why didn't she take her loony idea about marrying a building and just call it 'marriage'?"

* She figured it was a gay building because you entered through the rear.

* So you're telling me there are NO gay architects who'd marry the Chrysler Building if they could?

* She married a crumbling, 107-year-old relic that was ready to collapse...That's not like gay marriage, it's like Anna Nicole Smith's marriage.

Kidney Stones - Women's rights activists in Luchow, Germany, are demanding that the urinals be removed from the men's room at a local Rolling Stones museum. The urinals are shaped like the Stones' famous red lips logo, only without the tongue. A spokeswoman said that without the tongue, the lips look more feminine, and "that's discrimination against women." Ironically, that urinal was designed by a female Dutch artist. The owner, a local banker and Stones memorabilia collector, replied, "That's not a man's mouth or a woman's mouth, that's art. They were damned expensive, and they're staying where they are, and that's final."

* In other words, the women's rights activists can't get no satisfaction.

* Thinking of it as a piece of modern art makes it much more acceptable to piss on it.

* Think of it as a tribute to all the brave women who've ever appeared on "Fear Factor."

* My question: How do these women 
know what the urinals are like in the men's room?

I Thought Babies Weighed A Lot More These Days - Jesters Diner in Norfolk, England, is offering a dish called the Kidz Breakfast. It includes 12 strips of bacon; 12 sausages; six fried eggs plus an eight-egg cheese and potato omelette; four slices each of toast, fried bread, buttered bread and British black pudding; two servings of hash browns; plus mushrooms, tomatoes and beans. It has 6,000 calories and is about three days' food for the average person. It's served on a 2-1/2-square-foot plate, and weighs 9 lbs, over a pound more than the average newborn baby. The diner owners say it's just a "bit of fun," and an attempt to break the record for largest restaurant breakfast. It costs $22 (US), but it's free if you can finish it alone in under an hour. Health advocates say there's a slight chance that could actually kill someone and are demanding it be withdrawn. But so far, nobody's come near finishing it.

* Wussies! I ate that at IHOP last week, where it comes with a side order of pancakes.

* There's a slight chance that you might die just trying to lift it.

*  If you think the Kidz Breakfast is big, you should see the adult breakfast.

 * My problem with it is that it would be really hard to eat while driving to work.

* They're right, it's too much food. I'd have them hold the tomatoes.

Assistant Crack Whore - A 25-year-old woman in Shelby, North Carolina, was charged with misdemeanor prostitution after she allegedly performed a sex act on a man for money outside his car on a city street. The man admitted he had paid her $6. That was a $2 bill, three ones and an assortment of change. He was not arrested. Police didn't say what the $6 sex act was.

* I'm guessing she just told him to go screw himself.

* If she can only get $6, I'm betting it's something she can do with a bag over her head.

* Actually, she only charges $5...He thought the $2 bill was a one.

* She redefines the term "cheap date."

* She's the only hooker on Earth who has a January clearance sale.

Smell The Bacon - A new medical study by Detroit Medical Center recommends treating nosebleeds with pork tampons. Researchers say there was a long tradition of using cured pork to stop bleeding, but it fell into disuse because of fears of bacteria and parasites. But they say it should be better known because they treated a girl with a rare disorder that causes prolonged, life-threatening bleeding, and they say that "cured salted pork crafted as a nasal tampon and packed within the nasal vaults successfully stopped nasal hemorrhage promptly, effectively," and without recurrence.

* Plus she smelled like bacon for a week after, and men couldn't resist her.

* If stuffing your face with pork prevents nosebleeds, then I'll never have one again.

* Who discovered this, Homer Simpson?

* One caveat: do not use strips of bacon as an actual tampon.

I'd Rather Have The Cognac - The Vancouver company dougieDog Hot Dogs is shooting for Guinness Book of Records by offering the world's most expensive hot dog. It's made with shredded lobster and Japanese Kobe beef from hand-massaged cows, seared in olive and truffle oils, and infused with 100-year-old Louis the 13th cognac that costs over $2,000 a bottle. The foot-long "Dragon Dog" is named after the Chinese New Year and costs $100.

* But an hour later, you're hungry again.

* It's not bad with enough ketchup.

* That's actually a bargain; it costs more than that to buy the cows a massage.

* The rodent droppings and insect parts are flown in fresh from Paris.

* I thought the wiener that cost the most money was Tiger Woods'.

The Big Bang Theory - Last Thursday around 4 a.m. in Panama City, Florida, a 15-year-old girl called 911 to complain to police because she heard her mother having sex. The mother said she and her boyfriend didn't intend to wake her daughter up, but their bedrooms are right next to each other. The daughter admitted she had suffered no abuse or neglect, but claimed she "felt disrespected" by having to hear her mother having sex. She requested to be placed in a shelter. But after talking to a representative from the shelter, she decided that since it "was almost time for school," she'd just stay where she was.

* She discovered that in the shelter, everybody was having sex at 4 a.m.

* If she missed school, she'd miss study hall, and that's when she has sex with her boyfriend.

* On the bright side, they just got offered their own MTV reality show.

* I can't believe it's not considered abuse to make a teenager think about her mom having sex.

Honey, I've Found Our Vacation Spot! - The Huffington Post reports that the owners of the Mustang Ranch Resort near Reno, Nevada, are building what they call "the Ritz-Carlton of brothels," the "classiest brothel in the world." Co-owner Lance Gilman says, "We're selling luxury and fantasy, not just sex." It will feature a cabaret with live entertainment, a full spa and 10 deluxe suites, and the owners expect to earn 40 percent of their revenue from goods and services unrelated to prostitution. Also unusual, staying there is free, but guests have to pay one of the women to accompany them at all times, even if they bring a significant other with them. Gilman says most brothels are just trailer parks where there's nothing to do but have sex. But he says the Mustang Ranch Resort was inspired by Walt Disney, who took his kids to a shabby carnival and was inspired to create Disneyland.

* If he'd ever visited a trailer park brothel, imagine what Fantasyland would be like!

* It's like a Disney resort, only none of the girls there is Snow White.

* They call it "the Ritz-Carlton of brothels" because there's already a whore Hilton.

* The room is free, but condoms cost $500 each.

* You come for the fancy amenities, but you end up getting screwed...How is that different from any other casino hotel in Reno?

That's How All Men Pack - Authorities at the Los Angeles Airport stopped a 40-year-old Korean man and searched his two carry-on bags. They contained one pair of socks, some underwear, and several sealed pouches containing a white, powdery substance. He claimed it was an Asian herb, but it was actually a drug used to treat erectile dysfunction. He was carrying 63 pounds worth, valued at $179,000. A Customs spokesman said he could face imprisonment and a stiff fine.

* And then, he giggled uncontrollably.

* He'll face a stiff fine unless he gets a soft judge.

* He's seen a lot of American movies, so he assumed the women in L.A were really easy.

* He was going to be in L.A. for a week, so he just packed the essentials.

Those Are Large Figures, But Probably Padded - Sweden's Commercial Employees' Union has filed a discrimination lawsuit against the Change lingerie store in Gothenburg for allegedly making a female clerk wear a name that listed her bra size. They're seeking $43,410 for the clerk and $14,443 to the union. The store claims the bra size nametag policy is strictly voluntary. But the woman claims she was forced to comply and that it was offensive and discomforting because "for her, bust size is deeply personal."

* It weighs on her heavily.

* Which is why she works in a lingerie store, asking every customer her bust size.

* They could at least let her wear a blouse.

* Would she prefer that we just stare and try to guess? Because I'm cool with that.

* It's bad enough that her name is Chesty McBooberson.

* At least at Lane Bryant, they don't make you put your weight on your nametag.

Occupy The Acropolis - The credit rating agency Fitch said Tuesday that despite all the efforts to bail it out, Greece is insolvent, and they expect it to default on its debt soon. But they said they expect the default to be an "orderly" process. Meanwhile, to the horror of preservationists, Greece's culture ministry said that for the first time, they'll try to raise cash by offering Greece's ancient ruins for rent. They've always rejected most requests from filmmakers and advertisers, but now, demonstrators or fashion photographers could rent the Acropolis for as little as $2,046 a day.

* $2,046 a day for an old, crumbling ruin? It's like renting a New York apartment!

* China told them, "Hold on! We own that!"

* Luckily, Greeks are famous for taking bad financial news in an orderly fashion.

* Italy needs money, too, so the NFL offered to rent the Coliseum and let Tim Tebow face the Lions there.

Current Resale Value: Zero - South Korean customs officials say they've arrested eight men in a scheme to smuggle $260,000 in gold bars out of the country by hiding it in their rectums. The men were allegedly trying to avoid import taxes, so they transformed the gold bars into small gold beads and hid them up their rear ends. But Japanese customs officials caught them, fined them and sent them home.

* "The end."

* They tried to claim that they just naturally crap gold, but Oprah is the only person who can do that.

* Ironically, they were trying to avoid getting an anal exam from the tax agents.

* They could've swallowed the gold, but they just really liked having gold beads up their rectums.

Underground Economy - Police in Manchester, England, discovered that a band of thieves had spent up to six months digging a tunnel to steal an ATM. They had tunneled for over 100 feet underneath a parking lot and into a Blockbuster video store, building a tunnel outfitted with lighting and roof supports, then had to cut through more than 15 inches of concrete to get to the ATM. But they should've put a little thought into the timing: they stole the ATM overnight on a Monday, after people had been withdrawing money from it all weekend. It would normally hold up to $30,000, but there was only about $9,000 in it, so for all those months of tunneling, they probably made far less than minimum wage.

* On the bright side, they created more shovel-ready jobs than Obama.

* Still, it kept them off the streets for months.

* You could tell they were stupid because they actually thought there'd be money in Blockbuster Video.

* At least if they end up in a jail cell, it will seem pretty roomy to them.

Coming To Target: Cubic Zirconia Business Cards! - Black Astrum, a company that specializes in diamond-based design, is offering the ultimate status symbol: a $1500 business card. Each card is fabricated in Switzerland from a precision cast acrylic, encrusted with a full carat's worth of diamonds, and coated to be scratch- and chemical-resistant and maintain its shine. But if you want to impress people with your $1500 business card, be warned: the company deals only with "ultra-high net worth individuals across Europe, the Middle East and Asia," and accepts customers by invitation only. Also, you have to buy the cards in boxes of 30.

* If I could afford that, why would I even need to do business with anyone else?

* They're very popular with plumbers.

* What better way to tell potential investors, "I enjoy throwing away money!"

* Newt Gingrich claims that Mitt Romney uses these.

* That would be kind of depressing, to have a business card on my refrigerator that's worth more than my refrigerator.

They'll Have To Eat That Debt - Hostess has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization, citing debts of over $860 million. Part of their problem is that most of their competitors such are non-union, while 80 percent of Hostess workers belong to one of two different unions. They not only have to pay for benefits, but conflicting union rules have made their business practices confusing and inefficient. For instance, separate workers have to load the trucks and unload them at stores, and they have to use separate trucks to deliver either bread or cake products. Despite the bankruptcy, they promised that America's Twinkie supply will not be interrupted.

* President Obama will make sure of that, after Oprah ordered him to.

* They'll keep the Twinkies coming even if they have to take drastic action, like shipping them on a bread truck.

* Their labor contracts were actually written by Ding-Dongs.

* Actually, the people who make the Twinkie filling belong to the Chemists' Union.

* That's why Keebler hires elves: they're so tiny, their unions are easy to bust.

"Good Luck With Your Penis" - The Journal of Sexual Medicine reports on a little-known drawback to penis tattoos. A 21-year-old man in Kermanshah, Iran, got the phrase "borow be salaamat" ("good luck with your journeys") and his girlfriend's initial M tattooed on his penis. He was in pain for eight days, and when that went away, he got an erection that wouldn't go down. Apparently, the tattoo needle had gone too deep and created a connection between a vein and an artery. A shunt to drain excess blood didn't help. The patient declined further surgery and said he'll live with the condition. The report says that despite his permanent erection, the man has no regrets about getting his penis tattoo.

* "Despite," or "because of"?

* In fact, now he's got room to fill out his girlfriend's entire name!

* Well, one regret: if he'd known this was going to happen, he would've gone with the barber pole design.

* He'll have no regrets, as long as he's always dating a woman whose name starts with M or W.

Fox News East - The famously reliable North Korean state media are working overtime to provide accurate coverage of the transfer of power to Kim Jong-Un. So far, they've informed the people that Kim could drive at age 3 and drive rally-style with laser-like precision at 85 mph by age 8; that he was so engrossed in studying military strategy at 16 that he slept only three hours a night and skipped meals; and that he is a "genius of geniuses" in military affairs, even though he has no military experience. Meanwhile, the loss of his dictator father, Kim Jong-Il - who shot 11 holes-in-one in his first golf game and never had to defecate in his whole life - has caused so much grief that a family of bears that would normally be hibernating now were spotted along a roadside, "crying woefully."

* Actually, they were crying because even if you live in a cave, you can't escape the state-run media.

* Kim Jong-Il didn't have to defecate because his state run media dispensed crap for him.

* I'm assuming from looking at Kim Jong-Un that he hasn't had to skip any meals lately.

* Actually, it turns out that Kim Jong-Il died from chronic constipation.

* These are the same stories MSNBC told about Obama in 2008.

The Devil Made Them Do It - "The Devil Inside," the ultra-low budget mock documentary about exorcism, was expected to gross $15 million over the weekend. Instead, it topped the box office with a staggering $34.5 million, despite reviews complaining that it was boring, pointless, badly shot on shaky, handheld video cameras, and it didn't even have an ending.

* Well, now they can afford to shoot one.

* It had a happy ending for producers, who can now afford to buy many happy endings.

* The movie producers must've made a deal with the devil. But then, don’t they all?

* Usually, a movie that bad doesn't make that kind of money unless it has sparkly vampires.

My Attorney, Mr. Katz... - A New York federal judge ruled that Clorox Pet Products made advertising claims that were "literally false" in a commercial for Fresh Step cat litter. The ad tried to prove Fresh Step's superiority to a competitor by showing a smell test involving samples of used kitty litter sealed in jars. The judge ordered them to stop airing the ad, saying he found it "highly implausible" that 11 panelists would "stick their noses in jars of (cat) excrement and report 44 independent times that they smelled nothing unpleasant." Clorox said they're disappointed in the ruling and still defend the ad's truthfulness.

* They claim it was no more dishonest than most political ads, and didn't stink nearly as much.

* The panelists smelled nothing unpleasant...Then again, they all have at least 20 cats at home.

* I find it highly implausible that they could even find 11 panelists who'd be willing to stick their noses into a jar of cat excrement.

Where's His Speedo?! - La Redoute, one of France's top mail order retailers, apologized yesterday after web users noticed that in a photo of four young children on the beach in the kids' clothing section, there was a naked man walking in the surf behind them. Apparently, through all the levels of editing, nobody had noticed him. But because of high-resolution photos and their website's magnifying glass function, the naked bather quickly became an Internet celebrity. Thanks to PhotoShop, he's popped up behind French President Nicolas Sarkozy, on the moon behind Neil Armstrong, and fighting a light saber duel with Darth Vader.

 * Only that's not a light saber he's swinging.

* The man was embarrassed, but only because this story contains the phrase "magnifying glass."

* Nobody noticed him...Well, actually, they did, but come on, this is France.

* Actually, the photo of him with Sarkozy is real: the naked guy behind all the kids was Roman Polanski.

Don't Try This With Underwear - Melbourne University researcher Tullia Jack found 30 volunteers who agreed to wear the same pair of jeans five days a week for three months without washing them, as a challenge to our culture of "extreme clean." She claims that you don't need to wash your clothes as often as you think, that stains "come and go, they just wear off," and that not laundering the jeans helped the environment by saving electricity, water and soap. After three months, she says about half the subjects wanted to keep wearing and not washing the jeans. She also claims the jeans didn't stink, they just smelled "like people." She plans to prove it by putting them on display and letting the public sniff them.

* No, that's okay, I believe you!

* They smell like people...Homeless people.

* The half who wanted to keep wearing and not washing the jeans were the men...They'd do that anyway.

* Isn't this what all university students do?

* Don't even ask about her experiment in saving toilet paper.

How To Occupy The Unemployment Office - Columbia University announced that next semester, they'll offer a class that will send upperclassmen and grad students to "Occupy Wall Street" protests. It's taught by Dr. Hannah Appel, an "OWS" proponent, and students will be required to become involved with the movement outside the class. The course will be called "Occupy The Field: Global Finance, Inequality, Social Movement," and count toward a degree in Anthropology.

* You know, the useless degree all those protesters have that kept them from ever finding jobs.

* That will qualify them to work behind the counter at "Anthropologie" stores.

* If you don't want to end up protesting your own unemployment, maybe you should just take "Global Finance."

* What will they learn, how to sit around complaining, smoking dope and not bathing? They're college students; that's what they do already!

* Take enough courses like this, and you'll spend the next 30 years occupying your mom's basement.

"Who Is 'Arthur Fonzarelli?!'" - In Rome, Italy, a 99-year-old man has filed for divorce from his 96-year-old wife after 77 years of marriage, accusing her of cheating on him. The couple have five children, 12 grandchildren and one great-grandchild. Recently, the man happened across some letters she sent to a former lover with whom she allegedly had an affair in the late 1950s, over half a century ago. The ANSA news agency reports that the wife has taken no steps to contest the divorce.

* Frankly, she can't wait to get back to the hot sex.

* In fact, she's taken no steps, period...He hid her walker.

* Five children, 12 grandchildren and one great-grandchild...and not one of them looks like him

It's The Thought That Counts - A survey of 1700 Australian men by the cheaters' website AshleyMadison.com found that this year, they will spend up to $500 on Christmas gifts to their mistresses, which is double what they are spending on their wives. Mistresses are most likely to get diamonds, while wives can look forward to gifts of household items. Nearly a quarter of cheating men plan to sneak out and see their mistresses on Christmas Day. And while 90 percent buy their mistresses' gifts with cash, 7 percent are brazen enough to use their joint bank accounts. A spokesman for AshleyMadison.com said it's not surprising that January is the peak month for divorces in Australia.

* Also murders.

* That's when their wives get the Visa bill from Zales, and their gift was a vacuum cleaner.

* Three-quarters of men don't see their mistresses on Christmas Day, hence the diamonds.

* The lesson for women: never get married, just be a mistress.

* Men have to give their mistresses big gifts to make up for the small packages.

Reindeer Game - The upscale British story Harvey Nichols is offering one of the worst Christmas gourmet treats every: canned reindeer pate for $23 a can. The label claims that it's "an indulgent Christmas treat" that contains a "farm-raised relative of Rudolph." It sparked a protest campaign by Vegetarians International Voice for Animals, who demanded it be removed from shelves. It worked, sort of: canned reindeer pate is no longer on shelves, but only because the protests gave it so much publicity that it sold out. The good news: since it's a seasonal product, stores say they won't restock it before Christmas.

* They have to fill the shelves with bunny meat in time for Easter.

* The only disgusting canned Christmas product they still have is the canned Christmas music.

* It doesn't actually contain Rudolph because he's a genetic mutation.

* It's not meat from Santa's reindeer, but it does make you fly to the toilet.

* Ted Nugent plans to wait on the roof on Christmas Eve and bag his own fresh.

Aren't They All? - Next April in Florida, Carnival Cruise Lines will present the world's first horror-themed cruise. It's called the "Tides of Torture" cruise, and is billed as the first horror convention at sea. It costs $699 a person. Passengers will get to cruise with stars of films such as "Machete" and the "Halloween," "Hellraiser" and "Friday the 13th" movies. The cruise will also feature horror movie screenings, a "scream queen" contest and a "Dance of the Dead."

* They already have those on all the retiree cruises.

 * And the lounge entertainment: Kathie Lee Gifford!

* If I wanted to scream in horror on a cruise ship, I'd take a Richard Simmons cruise.

* There are also evil chefs who force you to eat and eat until your stomach explodes!... Oh wait, that's all cruise ships.

* If you want to combine horror with a cruise ship, rent "Boat Trip."

Take My Art, Please - The Art Series hotel chain in Australia is displaying a $15,000 painting by graffiti artist, Banksy, at one of their hotels in Melbourne. And in keeping with the artist's guerrilla approach to art - painting under cover of darkness and hiding his identity - guests are encouraged to try to steal the painting. The rules are that you can't steal or damage anything else; and you must be polite, respectful, sophisticated and cool, because "art thieves are always cool." Also, if they catch you trying to steal the painting, you have to put it back. But if you manage to take it, you get to keep it.

* Because they hate it.

* In other words, it's like everything else in your hotel room.

* It's the hotel towel of modern art.

* The graffiti that's on the wall behind it looks better than the painting anyway.

No Happy Ending - Police in Milwaukee report that they got a call from a 74-year-old man complaining that two women had stolen $50 from him. Actually, he said he gave them a $100 bill for "escort services," and they gave him a $50 massage and promised to return the next morning with $50 change, but never did. Police questioned one of the female escorts named LaDonna, who turned out to be a 22-year-old man in drag. They warned the victim against hiring escorts and told him this is a matter for the civil courts.

* Or the Jerry Springer Show.

And The Five Gold Rings Are Nipple Rings - Peckham's delicatessen in Edinburgh, Scotland, has sparked controversy with its holiday window display that puts a surreal twist on "The 12 Days of Christmas." It was created by an artist hired by the Hendrick's gin company. The partridge sits in a cucumber plant, which is an ingredient in Hendrick's gin. The three French hens are represented by three live giant snails with painted shells. And most controversial, the eight maids-a-milking are represented by eight photos of women breast-feeding lambs. Some customers call it tasteless and confusing, but a Hendrick's spokesman says the original carol is confusing anyway, and if your true love had given you a partridge and doves and 10 lords a-leaping, you'd be dreading the next day and think "your true love is a bit weird."

* Then when the 11 pipers piping arrived, you'd dump him.

* But if you gave you eight women breast-feeding lambs, you'd change your name and disappear.

* At least he didn't send you anything with eye stalks and a slime trail.

* Maybe your true love just went Christmas shopping after drinking a bottle of Hendrick's gin.

* The artist's "Eight Days of Hanukkah" display was much more realistic...Nothing but socks and underwear.

And The Beast With Two Backs! - We always hear that species are constantly going extinct. But Monday, the environmental group WWF reported that more than 200 previously-unknown species were discovered in Southeast Asia's Greater Mekong region last year. They say the area's diversity is so astonishing that scientists are finding a new species about every two days. Among them are a wildly colored gecko, a fish that looks like a gherkin, a lizard that reproduces via cloning so there's no need for males, five species of carnivorous plants that even eat rats and birds, and a monkey with an Elvis-like pompadour hairdo that's been nicknamed the "Elvis Monkey." The WWF said that even though they've just been discovered, many are already facing extinction due to encroachment on their habitat, poaching and "heading for the dinner table."

* The Elvis Monkeys keep eating fried foods until they die of heart attacks.

* The Elvis Monkey is being hunted to extinction for its fur by the Hair Club for men.

* They obviously ate all the male lizards.

* The gecko has been forced to survive by selling car insurance.

* So now we've found a gecko that looks like a rainbow, a fish that looks like a pickle, and a monkey that looks like Elvis, but we can't find a Republican who looks like a possible President.

The Thick Blue Line - 22-year-old Timothy Randall Clark was arrested last week at a Wal-Mart in Waldorf, Maryland, with $635 worth of video games and accessories stuffed into his pants and sweatshirt. When security spotted him and called for a cop, it didn't take long. He had allegedly decided to shoplift during a national charity event for needy kids called "Shop With A Cop" Day, and there were at least 50 police officers all around him in Walmart.

* Damn! There's never a cop not there when you don't need one!

* He misunderstood: he thought it was "Shoplift Till You Drop" Day.

* After what happened on Black Friday, every day should be "Shop With A Cop" Day.

And Don't Hand A Baby An Apple! - Last week, religious authorities in Saudi Arabia warned against letting women drive because it would lead to the end of virginity. Now, an unnamed Islamic cleric living in Europe has advised that women not get close to bananas, cucumbers, carrots, zucchini or similarly-shaped fruits and vegetables because they "resemble the male penis" and could arouse women and make them think "sexual thoughts." When asked what to do if women in the family liked these foods, the cleric said a third party, preferably a male relative, should cut the phallic items into small pieces and serve.

* That's too bad because I bet women there would really enjoy being able to cut phallic items into small pieces.

* They can handle baby carrots because those only remind them of sex with their husbands.

* For some reason, Saudi women think of "the male penis" when they see a green bean.

* Also, bananas and cucumbers give the Saudi men an inferiority complex.

* The worst mortal sin in the Middle East would be a woman driving herself to a green grocer.

Yes, He's Tenured - Long Island University Prof. George Giuliani has written a book attacking a surprising target: the beloved TV special, "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer." In "No More Bullies on the North Pole." he argues that "Rudolph" promotes bullying by showing Rudolph being ostracized for being different. The fact that his nose later makes him a hero doesn't help: Giuliani says the special sends the wrong message to children by implying that Rudolph's uniqueness has to have a useful purpose for him to be accepted. Asked for a second opinion, the head of a psychological services firm in Pittsburgh said, "I think this guy has too much time on his hands."

* In other words, his book serves no useful purpose.

* Well, of course he does: all of the other professors never let him join all in all their psychologist games.

* This is the kind of theory you come up with after you've drunk enough to get a shiny red nose.

* Whatever we do, we must NEVER let this guy see "A Charlie Brown Christmas!"

Isn't Michael Moore A Muppet? - Some conservative commentators on Fox Business Network have identified a new leftwing menace: the Muppets. "Follow The Money" host Ed Bolling said the new Muppet movie has an "anti-corporate" message because the villain is an oilman who wants to drill under the Muppets' theater. Dan Gainor of the Media Research Center agreed, saying the Muppets followed "Captain Planet" and Al Gore's movie as the latest tool to indoctrinate children with the idea that mankind is a virus on Mother Earth, and that this where the "Occupy Wall Street" crowd came from.

* Well, they do carry a lot of viruses...

* They've patterned their entire lives around Oscar the Grouch, who occupies somebody's garbage can.

* Hollywood actually toned it down: in the first draft, Sarah Palin shot and roasted Miss Piggy.

* They forgot to mention that the Muppets all walk around with some guy's hand up their bottoms, so they're obviously promoting the gay agenda.

Art Drecko - Great Britain's annual $37,000 (US) Turner Prize for Modern Art has been awarded. The finalists included a Scottish artist who filled a room with wadded-up paper, cellophane, soap and deodorant; an artist whose paintings of his house included one titled "Landscape With Dog(bleep) Bin;" and a video called "Floor" that consists of nothing but some footage of a floorboard. But the Turner Prize went to Martin Boyce, whose winning artwork, "Perforated And Porous," was a collection of sculptures made of industrial junk that suggested a park, with a centerpiece of a bent, rusty garbage bin. Judges hailed it as "pioneering" and said it displayed "a new sense of poetry," although one gallery visitor said he thought it was an actual beat-up garbage can and nearly threw some litter into it.

* Philistine!

* That would have ruined it! Or improved it. Hard to say, really...

* There is something kind of poetic in that...

* When the judges realized that the art actually looked like what it was supposed to be, they took the prize away.

* Know what would've improved the floorboard video? A laugh track.

* The painter had another artwork called "Piece of Crap," and it actually was.

* I think I saw that wadded-up paper, cellophane, soap and deodorant artwork on an episode of "Hoarders."

At Least She Has A Career - Father-of-three Titus Ncube of Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, was staying in a hotel while having marital problems, so he called for a prostitute to come up to his room. He was shocked he collapsed to the floor when the hooker turned out to be his 20-year-old daughter. Ncube said he'd apologized to his daughter and wife, and is now in marriage counseling. His wife said she could have divorced him long ago but didn't because she thought a divorce might be too traumatic for their children.

* Obviously, keeping dad around insured that they grew up well-adjusted.

* He should've suspected this would happen when he called up his son's pimp service.

* He has three kids...Good thing he never got around to calling the numbers for those two drug dealers he wanted to reach.

* He was too embarrassed to apologize to his daughter in person, so he just left an apology on her nightstand.

Like My Habeas Corpus? - The Miami New Times reports that strippers were being hired to pose as paralegals, go into prisons for private visits with accused drug lords, then get naked and let the guys touch them. One was caught stripping on a prison security camera. Spokeswomen for exotic dancer groups say it's hard to imagine anyone would take the risk of arrest unless she were desperate for money. One attorney said they're getting away with it by abusing the paralegal system: "Any lawyer can sign a form and designate a legal assistant," so strippers are being designated as paralegals to rich drug defendants to smuggle in porn, cash and alcohol and give them lap dances.

* They have no legal skills, just a lot of illegal skills.

* Knowing how to screw people doesn't make you a lawyer...You also need a diploma.

* So it's true what we see on TV lawyer shows: Paralegals are HOT!

Is That Rudolph's Head On The Wall? - For the second Christmas in a row, the Scottsdale, Arizona, Gun Club is offering a unique holiday memento: a photo with Santa and your choice of guns. Your family members can pose with Santa holding your choice of anything from pistols to assault rifles, grenade launchers, AK-47s or an $80,000 machine gun. Some media critics are appalled, but the Gun Club says it's just good family fun for people who want to express their holiday spirit and their passions for their hobby and the Second Amendment. It's so popular that this year, they doubled the price of the photos to $10.

* Nobody argues with them about handing over their money.

* Santa's loaded, and so is his gun.

* If Santa looks even fatter than usual, it might be the bullet-proof vest.

* Santa has flying reindeer, so this combines the best parts of deer hunting and duck hunting.

* Santa has a concealed carry permit...There's a Glock in his beard.

* To be fair, Santa does go out late at night carrying a lot of expensive merchandise into some pretty bad neighborhoods.

Even More Embarrassing: It Was A Pinkie Ring - London firefighters released a report of 417 unusual emergency calls they've had to deal with. They include people stuck in handcuffs, kids with toilet seats stuck on their heads, a person whose fingers were stuck in a DVD player, a man stuck in a child-size toy car, a youth wedged in an ironing board, and 160 incidents of people who needed stuck rings removed, including a man who showed up at Queen Elizabeth Hospital with a ring stuck on his penis. It took 10 firefighters 20 minutes to cut it off after doctors were unable to pry it off. A spokesman urged the public to think carefully about whether it's really an emergency before calling the emergency line.

* For instance, wait to see if your erection lasts four hours before calling a doctor to remove your ring.

* I don't believe it requires any debate to decide that having a ring stuck on your penis is an emergency.

* Sometimes, all it takes is a little lubricant...Of course, if you're in handcuffs with a ring stuck on your penis, chances are you've already tried that.

* That man showed up at Queen Elizabeth Hospital with a ring stuck on his penis 57 times...And he was dressed as Queen Elizabeth.

* Did it really take 10 firefighters, or were most of them just there to laugh?

Para-Abnormal Activity- 73-year-old grandmother Doris Birch of Herne Bay, England, claims she can't sleep because she keeps getting groped by a ghost. She said the horny poltergeist is "like an octopus." It started four months ago, when she was lying in bed and felt a creepy pair of hands on her. She said she kicked frantically and it went away, but it kept coming back. She even tried getting a new mattress, to no avail. She said it's giving her the jitters and harassing her, and "I need to call in the Ghostbusters." A local husband-and-wife ghost hunting team say they'll come over, and the man will try to draw the ghost into him so it can be captured in a "vortex of light" and sent to the other side.

* He's just hoping that this particular ghost is bisexual.

* It must be the ghost of Ben Franklin...He liked the older women.

* He likes to grope 73-year-old women?...Have any TSA agents died recently?

* They're hoping the ghost is Muslim so they can convince him there are 72 virgins on the other side.

* She might've enjoyed it if his hands weren't SO cold!

* They believe it might be Casper, the overly-friendly ghost.

Text Spelling Explained - Noted sleep expert Dr. Marcus Schmidt tells MSNBC that he's seeing a rising number of cases of "sleep texting." Sufferers grab their cell phones and send text messages in their sleep. They don't realize they've done it until the recipients ask why they sent baffling texts at 3 a.m. One conservative young woman was shocked to discover she was "sexting" and sending out naughty photos of herself in her sleep. Schmidt said sleep deprivation can spark common motor behaviors. Since people text so much now, they unconsciously reach for the phone. He suggests getting the phone out of the bedroom and as far away as possible.

* Your spouse will be happy about that, anyway.

* I'd be happy if people would just stop sleep-texting while driving.

* He also suggests that if you do sleep-text naked photos of yourself, that you send them to a noted sleep expert.

* This explains why people send pointless incoherent texts at 3 a.m. So, why do they send them the rest of the time?

Facing rising criticism from fans of his Christian message movies, Perry explained that he wanted a younger cast to attract younger viewers, and Kim rounds that out. Also, he said he thinks "it would be very responsible of her to be a part of this film" and good for young people who see her as a role model to "see her in a film that is about what happens in life when you make the wrong choices."

* They know already: you get your own reality show, millions of dollars, and a part in a Tyler Perry movie.

* She will inspire viewers by starting the movie in a big paper bag and attempting to act her way out of it.

* Kim could round out any cast just by turning around.

* She almost turned down the role because of the nudity...There wasn't any.

He replied, "He sounded like you." Cesar paused, startled, and the jury cracked up laughing. Moments later, he asked another witness what the robber sounded like. She replied, "He sounded exactly like you." She added that she was "1,000 percent sure" it was Cesar, not just because of his voice, but he was wearing a "fishnet mask," so she could also see his face.

PETA claims that it's sending the message that it's okay to wear fur, even though it's not fur, it's just cartoon pixels. To try to shame Nintendo into changing the game, PETA launched a website called "Mario Kills Tanooki," where players control a skinless animal as it chases a Mario wearing a blood-soaked Tanooki suit.

Age-Defying Makeup Sex - If women want to look younger, they need to have sex more often. Royal Edinburgh Hospital in Scotland discovered that women who have sex at least four times a week were scored by others as looking up to 10 years younger than their real ages. But most women aren't taking advantage of this fountain-of-youth aspect of sex. A survey by the group HealthyWomen found that only 42 percent of women believe that sex is very or extremely important to their overall health. Only 51 percent believe that having sex a few times a week is considered healthy. And only 30 percent actually do it. 66 percent say they do it once a week or less.

* They're too tired from taking care of the kids they had back when they actually were having sex four times a week.

* The women having sex four or more times a week have a partner who really is 10 years younger than they are.

* Maybe they have so much sex because they look 10 years younger than they are.

* I'd bet a week's salary that all the researchers backing this theory are men.

But Katz told them, "It's just not that easy." He's suing them for $730,000. That's $230,000 in damages for the breakfast and $500,000 for a libelous comment allegedly made by a spa worker.

* She accused him of taking breakfast too seriously.

* Whatever she called him, she could probably get a jury to agree with her.

But his wife says that when she began kissing the other woman, he "freaked out" and became consumed with jealousy and started hitting his wife. The women ran to the bedroom and locked the door. Convinced that they were having sex without him, Silva allegedly broke down the door, swung a TV set at his wife like a bat, dropped it on her, then threw a second TV at her. He also punched the other woman when she tried to intercede. He's facing felony charges. Police believe alcohol was a factor. They note that it was Silva's first threesome.

He's since quit his bank job, retrained to become a hairdresser, bleached his hair, hit the gym, lost 112 pounds and is living with a 19-year-old boyfriend. Birch says a neurologist told him the stroke might have caused it by opening up a different part of his brain.

The new ordinance bans nudity in restaurants and requires anyone with nude buttocks to put down a cover on benches or other public seats before sitting down. The board still has to give it final approval, but Supervisor Scott Wiener, who represents the Castro neighborhood where nudists often gather, said that public sanitation concerns are a "tangible issue" in his district.

The fragrance is a combination of beer, leather (to represent local sports teams), pickles (because Branston pickles were invented there) and Marmite, the traditional salty, yeasty British sandwich spread whose slogan is "Love it or hate it." Brookes admits that you wouldn't think a perfume that combines Marmite, pickles, leather and beer would smell good, but it's getting lots of compliments.

* Mostly from hungry beer-drinkers.

* It's like English Leather, only a lot more English.

* When you wear it, you're making a statement: "Love me or hate me."

* Why would anyone buy this when all the people in Burton smell like this already?

News From Bizarro World - Researchers at the Hospital Magalhaes Lemos in Portugal say it's not just men who are plagued by the problem of finishing too early during sex. A survey of Portuguese women found that 40 percent occasionally reach orgasm sooner than they intended, and for about 3 percent, it's a chronic problem. The study leader said that while this is seldom discussed, "Female premature orgasm is more than bothersome. We think it's as serious a distress as it is in men."

* Which tells us these researchers are not women.

* Especially when she immediately rolls over and falls asleep.

* It wouldn't be so bad if they'd at least wait until the man is in the room.

* Some women reach orgasm in just 30 seconds, or as men call that, a simultaneous climax.

We Know What You Are, We're Just Dickering Over The Price - TMZ.com reports that Lindsay Lohan has agreed to pose full frontal nude for Playboy. TMZ says that Playboy offered her $750,000 months ago, she demanded $1 million, and Playboy refused. But they came back with an offer close enough to convince her to take it. She reportedly started doing the shoot last weekend, which means she was alternating doing community service in the morgue with posing for nude photos.

* In both places, people were taking photos of a deathly white, naked body.

* Lindsay actually enjoyed taking off her clothes for once without it being the prelude to a body cavity search.

* This could be the first photo shoot Lindsay's ever done where she can't steal the wardrobe.

* She'll take her clothes off for $1 million...For another million dollars, she'll set the bottle down.

Frog In A Blender -
Ward Clark of Pajamas Media reports that vegans who think they're preventing animal suffering by eating vegetables are kidding themselves. Clark says that between the mice, birds and rabbits killed by pesticides and traps, and the rodents and frogs cuisinarted by threshers, growing vegetables kills far more vertebrates than hunting. For instance, killing one deer can yield 120 pounds of meat, but harvesting 120 pounds of rice can kill tens of thousands of rodents, insects, reptiles and amphibians.

* Yeah, but not Bambi's Mother!

* To the animal world, Uncle Ben is Hitler.

* If you really cared about living creatures, you'd eat nothing but gravel.

Rappers Will Do Hard Time - Congress is considering a proposed new copyright law pushed by the music industry that would make public performance of copyrighted songs without permission a criminal offense. To protest how far overboard that is, some opponents launched a website called FreeBieber.org. Since Justin Bieber came to fame by performing other people's songs on YouTube, they say this law would have made that a felony. The site features Photoshopped pictures of Bieber spending five years in prison, wearing an orange jumpsuit, getting a teardrop tattoo and having prison visits from Selena Gomez.

* But Justin's cellmate tells her to forget it, he's taken.

* They're right; this law is crazy. It should be a death penalty offense.

There Will Be Blood - Witches and zombies are at each others' throats in Salem, Massachusetts. For the second time in three days, police had to be called to a mall where two Halloween attractions, the Nightmare Factory and the Witch Mansion, are competing for visitors. One time, Nightmare Factory zombies claimed that one of the witches was deliberately bumping into them. The other time, witches complained that the zombies were shouting, "Witch Mansion sucks!" They claimed they were shouting, "White Sox," so apparently, they're Chicago zombies. Frustrated police officers said they'll be glad when November gets here.

* In fact, they'll be...giving thanks.

* If there was some way they could give these zombies some brains, trust me, they would.

* The cops didn't believe the zombies were White Sox fans...If they really were dead men walking, they'd be Cubs fans.

No Sext, Please, We're British - A poll of over 2,000 British adults by Computeractive magazine found that they think the most annoying tech-related word to enter the dictionary in the past year is "sexting." "Sexting" was given the magazine's annual "Unspeakable Award" over such other top contenders as "defriend," "Twittersphere" and "intexticated." The editor said that while there's no argument those words are all unspeakable, any word like "sexting" that can be voted as more horrible than "intexticated" deserves an award.

* Someone must've been intoxicated when he invented "intexticated."

* If someone uses the word "intexticated," you should defriend him immediately .

* If you sext when you're intoxicated, does that make you insexticated?

Another Expensive Halloween Decoration - Artist Leon Reid IV told the New York Post that he hopes to decorate the Brooklyn Bridge with a giant vinyl spider, 30 by 15 feet and filled with helium. It would be displayed in October of 2014. Reid calls the project "A Spider Lurks In Brooklyn." He said he wants to draw parallels between the architecture of humankind and spiders, and he thought it would be "cool" if a giant spider were crawling over the bridge, because it would make it seem as if the spider wove the cables Two problems: he doesn't have city approval yet and he needs to raise $800,000 to make the giant inflatable spider.

* Obama put it in his jobs bill, but that's stalled in Congress.

* Has he considered approaching Macy's? After the art exhibit's over, they could put it in the Thanksgiving Day parade.

They've Seen "Last Tango" Too Many Times - The editors of Maxim magazine seem to believe that the way to a man's crotch is through his stomach. They just named 64-year-old butter queen Paula Deen as the Number 1 hottest female TV chef, over such sexy foodie babes as Padma Lakshmi and Gianda DeLaurentiis. Maxim's editors say that while some consider Deen's high-caloric fare "dangerous," they find it to be a turn-on. They say just thinking about her makes them hungry for a "bacon-wrapped, beer-batter fried stick of butter." To show their devotion, they even ran a photo of a stick of butter instead of a photo of Deen.

* That turns them on a lot more.

* Pretty much the same thing.

* Paula's food has a way of going right to a man's heart, and stopping it.

Take Out A Bridge Loan
- Officials in Monroe, Louisiana, have just discovered a problem with their new airport terminal that's sparked jokes about the government building more "bridges to nowhere." The $36 million cost of the terminal was partly covered with $7 million from the FAA's airport improvement program and $10 million from Obama's stimulus bill. Only after it was finished did they discover that some of the passenger loading bridges are several feet too short to reach the parked airplanes. Until they figure out a fix, they say they'll have to "improvise" in loading and unloading passengers.

* It all depends on how far passengers are willing to jump.

* On the bright side, that project created 200 construction jobs...for unemployed anthropology majors.

* Obama wants to spend $10 million more installing skateboard ramps at the end of the bridges.

* If only the Republicans had agreed to a bigger stimulus bill, they could have afforded measuring tapes.

A spokesman said they expected women would pick a tall, young, rich jock with a sexy foreign accent. But they were shocked when 58 percent of the women said their ideal man is age 30 to 45, dark-haired, 5-foot-10, a good cook and has a full-time job. A spokesman said the "boy next door" has made a staggering comeback in popularity. Instead of a tall, sexy hunk, women want dependability, domesticity, a little romance and humor and average size, in terms of height.

* They wouldn't mind larger than average size in terms other than height.

* These days, just having a full-time job makes you Mr. Above Average.

* Is there a country where all the women are looking for "Mr. Slightly Below Average?"

It shows an attractive woman in an office eating a long ice pop with great relish. As she licks and sucks it and pushes it in and out of her mouth, moaning in pleasure, men in the office notice, stop and stare transfixed. Then a caption appears asking, "Is this sexual harassment?...We know the answer. Association of Finnish Lawyers." It's sparked a debate as to which is supposed to be the sexual harassment: the men staring or the woman eating her ice pop? And is it possible to eat in a way that's so sexy it could get you sued? *

 The lawyers know the answer: ANYTHING can get you sued.

* More importantly, can you be sued for sexual harassment for watching this ad at work? Because I plan to watch it about 200 times.

* You think that's sexual harassment? Boy, some people will swallow anything.

* If you think this is bad, you should see the ad they rejected...It featured a lesbian eating a taco.

Oh, Bag It! - French officials are cracking down on the amount of ketchup available in school cafeterias, to help keep the children sufficiently French. They're worried that kids are opting for American snacks over French food. Under new rules, schools can serve ketchup and mayonnaise only with certain foods. For instance, kids can have ketchup with French fries, but they can only be served once a week. A spokesman for France's restaurant association said children have a tendency to smother everything in ketchup to mask the taste. He said, "We have to ensure the children become familiar with French recipes so they can hand them down to the following generation."

* Did he ever consider that being French, they don't want to hand down school cafeteria recipes to a new generation?

* If you put ketchup on French fries, you cover up the Frenchy part.

* You'd think that being French, they'd just give up.

* Here's a news flash: if you're going to get any kid to eat goose liver and snails, you'd better drown it in ketchup

* They're also replacing the cafeteria's chocolate milk with a good French Chardonnay.

Wasn't Disco Silenced Around 1980? - The latest club fad to sweep Hollywood is "silent disco." It started in England. The way it works is that clubgoers are issued a pair of wireless headphones, so they can all hear the same music being streamed by a DJ. But even though they're dancing to pounding music in their ears, the room is actually silent. So if you want to talk to your date, you don't have to scream. You can both just take off your headphones.

* But nobody ever does.

* But you scream anyway because by then, you're deaf.

* But it's impossible to talk because you're laughing so hard at all the idiots gyrating around in dead silence.

* For a joke, they give Lindsay Lohan headphones that are playing Mozart.

Besides, they determined if you just had a few procedures, it could easily reach $25,000.

Call David Copperfield - Sunday, scientists at Radboud University Nijmegen in the Netherlands announced that they had identified the molecular mechanism by which anammox germs turn an ingredient in urine into the rocket fuel hydrazine. They said NASA had been excited in the 1990s when it was discovered that a bacteria could turn urine into rocket fuel, but they found that it created so little fuel that it was "nothing like enough to get a rocket to Mars." They hope that understanding how it does it will help ramp up the process so they can create a lot more rocket fuel out of urine.

* Here's a suggestion: Start with Lindsay Lohan's urine.

* They hope to produce enough to fly a rocket to the planet Urine-us.

* To make enough urine, they'll have to drink a lot of beer, but they're willing to make that sacrifice for science.

* This is similar to the process that's used to make Cher's perfume.

* It's not a new concept...Keith Richards used to drink rocket fuel and turn it into urine.

Even Janeane Garafalo? - Psychologists at Georgia Tech report that the "Avenue Q" song is right: "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist." But it's not our fault, it's the culture we grow up in. They asked test subjects if the letters "G-U-B" formed a word, then the letters "G-U-N." If they were shown a photo of a black face between the two, their brains recognized the word "gun" faster. This subconscious association between blacks and violence was universal. So they analyzed 10 million words worth of samples from books, magazines and newspapers and discovered they were filled with stereotyped word pairings, such as "black-murder," "women-weak," "white-greedy" and "old-wise." A spokesman said this is why everyone has racist gut reactions, but what matters is how we behave.

* Yeah, let's not get into that...

* That is so wise! He must be really old.

* It's okay for women to be racist because they're so weak, what are they gonna do about it?

* So if you don't want your child to be racist, NEVER teach him to read.

* Ironically, who is it who's always telling you to listen to your gut? Oprah.

But All Penguins Look Gay! – The American Library Association released a list of the top 100 books that people have tried to ban from libraries in the past 10 years. It includes classics like "Huckleberry Finn" and "To Kill a Mockingbird;" recent bestsellers like "Gossip Girl" and "Friday Night Lights;" and children's books such as "And Tango Makes Three," about a real-life gay penguin couple that adopted a chick. Perhaps the most ironic target was Ray Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451," about a future society that burns books. And the #1 target of would-be book banners: the "Harry Potter" series.

* To be fair, some parents wanted that banned just because they were so damn sick of it.

* The protests against "To Kill A Mockingbird" mostly came from confused animal lovers.

Free Love - University of Minnesota Prof. Kathleen Vohs has done several studies on "sexual economics," or the market value of sex, and she says it's never been cheaper. Sociologists say men want sex more than women do, which has traditionally meant that women could set a high price on sex, such as marriage or diamond jewelry. But by jumping into bed sooner with fewer expectations of long-term commitments, young women have "discounted" the price of sex. Research shows that 30 percent of young men's sexual relationships now involve no romance at all; they just get sex and give nothing in return, not even text messages. She says that when dating is boiled down to an economic model, men are getting more bang for their buck than ever.

* They're getting the bang free and spending the buck on a Snickers bar afterward.

* No wonder it's hard out there for a pimp!

* These days, the most expensive part of a booty call is the gasoline to drive over.

* Girls not only give away the milk, you can get the entire cow for free.

That bodes well for British Beatles fan Barry Thomas, who paid 85 pounds ($131 US) at a 1980 auction for a roll of toilet paper rejected by the Beatles. The TP came with a letter of authenticity from an EMI manager, who confirmed that they refused to use it at Abbey Road Studios because it was too "hard and shiny" and they thought the fact that the EMI Records logo was stamped on every sheet was disgraceful. Experts told him it was impossible to set a value on such an odd object, but he says that he's been offered up to 1,000 pounds ($1,545) for a single sheet of it.

Better Dialogue Than "Avatar" - Two Cornell University researchers created the first conversation between two robots. They rigged up a system that allowed two chatbots to talk to each other. Chatbots emulate the conversational abilities of humans, based on the theory that a robot could be considered intelligent if it could converse well enough that a human wouldn't realize he was talking to a robot. The two robots, via male and female Internet avatars, started off well, but the conversation quickly degenerated into lies, insults and inane bickering. The male avatar claimed he was a unicorn, called the female a "meanie," and criticized her for being mistaken, sniping, "Which is odd, since memory shouldn't be a problem for you." The female avatar claimed she wasn't a robot, got pedantic about word usage, then curtly said, "Au revoir," and shut off.

* What a meanie!

* Wow! She must've been programmed by my ex-wife!

* They really are just like two humans on a blind date!

* The only other time two robots had a conversation was when Mitt Romney and Rick Perry met in the GOP debate, and that ended about the same way.

How Did The Bureaucrats Lose Their Minds? - Fredrick Jansson of Skelleftea, Sweden, lost his leg to cancer over 10 years ago. But in order to keep his disabled parking permit, the local government forced him to prove every three years that he still has trouble walking. Officials say it's necessary due to a lack of disabled parking spaces. But Jansson said, "It defies all common sense. I go down to Umea once every three years and have a doctor establish my leg is still gone. It's not like my leg is going to grow back."

* Why so pessimistic?

* If legs grew back, one frog would last a Cajun a lifetime.

* "My leg is still gone!" What a limp excuse!

* What is the government thinking? He's stumped.

* Still, if he wants to keep the permit, he'd better hop to it.

Those Wild, Crazy Canadians! - The Bear 100.3 FM in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, is holding a contest to win a wife from Russia. The winner gets airfare, $500 and 13 nights' accommodations in Russia to meet and choose from an array of "hot foreign chicks." To those who say it undermines the sanctity of marriage, the station says it's no worse than reality shows like "The Bachelor," and it's arranged through a "serious and renowned" mail-order bride company called "Volga Girl."

* And trust me, you couldn't find girls more Volga than this anywhere.

* Gay listeners can also enter to win a prize from a company called "Volga Boatmen."

* I'm sure there are quite a few Canadian radio DJs who can vouch for this service.

The Obamacare Of Money - A 2005 law requires US reserve banks to keep ordering one-dollar coins, but virtually no Americans want them. They're too easy to confuse with quarters, and Americans are just used to paper dollars and refuse to take the coins. So bank vaults nationwide are filling up with them. The Federal Reserve Bank in Baltimore says they have only a small portion of them, and they are literally running out of storage room. By 2016, reserve banks will be expected to have $2 billion worth of dollar coins, and they say they have to start hunting for other federal facilities that have more space.

* How about putting them in the Social Security lockbox? I hear that's just about empty.

* Bankers will soon be forced to take them home and pile them up on top of their dressers.

* Obama could create jobs by hiring unemployed people to build giant, pig-shaped vaults to hold them all.

* The good news is that by 2016, they'll actually be worth a quarter, so problem solved!

But I Drove All Night! - Celine Dion was the victim of a burglary this week when a 36-year-old man allegedly stole the keys from her husband's car and used them to break into their Montreal mansion. He tripped the alarm, and police arrived to find that he'd helped himself to some pastries from the fridge and was drawing himself a nice, warm bath. Police say when they arrived, he was coming down Dion's big staircase and asking, "Hey, guys, what are you doing here?" They arrested him on the spot.

* Oh come on! Do you really think Celine Dion would've eaten those pastries?!

* He was charged with exceeding the gay limit.

* The cops knew something was wrong at Celine Dion's place when they didn’t hear tortured howling coming from it.

This Will Make You Vomit - A doctor in Osterbro, Denmark, who specializes in eating disorders is charged with sexual abuse of patients. He claims that making at least five women anorexics strip naked and play with sex toys while he photographed them was an "alternative treatment," designed to make them feel more accepting of how they looked naked. He said, "That's why I took a number of photographs of genitalia, to get them adjusted to seeing them." Police found more than 600 other nude photos on his PC, but he claimed they must've been put there by a virus or were left over from when he salvaged the computer off the street.

* If he's pulling computers out of Dumpsters, he can't be too afraid of contracting a virus.

* Anorexics hate being photographed... The camera adds 10 pounds.

* These women hate seeing their genitalia because they think their genitalia looks fat.

* He's not treating those anorexic women; he obviously just wants to jump their bones.

Why The Moon Is Pizza-Faced - Pizza Hut delivered Pizza to the space station in 2001, and now, Domino's Japanese branch hopes to one-up that by opening the first Domino's outlet on the moon. They don't know how long it will take for humans to colonize the moon, but they hope to be the first pizza place there when they do. The plan is to build a dome-shaped concrete Domino's on the lunar surface. They estimate it will cost over $20 billion and take 15 rocket trips to transport the construction materials and pizza making equipment. They hope to use local resources, like moon minerals for the concrete. They say workers will have to live at the store. And yes, they do plan to offer delivery.

* They'll make the Kessel run in 30 parsecs or less, or your pizza is free!

* Now the moon really will hit your eye like a big pizza pie!

* They plan to use local resources, like on their new "Green Cheese and Pepperoni" pizza.

* They may be the first pizza place on the moon, but I'll bet there's already a Starbucks there.

* Pizza on the moon is far in the future...Right now, we can't even get toilet paper to the space station.

"For Body" - University of Manchester researchers discovered that ancient Egyptians used hair gel. Microscopic studies of hair samples from mummies revealed that they had been treated with a substance made from plant and animal fatty acids. They believe that personal appearance was so important to the ancient Egyptians that they used styling gel on dead bodies so they could retain the hairstyles they wore in life.

* Imagine any civilization being superstitious enough to care about that!

* That's why people stood in line to see the boy king.

* They even had a company that marketed hair gel, but it was a pyramid scheme.

* If they wanted a hairstyle to hold for all eternity, they should've invented Aquanet.

Jews Have Tattoos? - Following the lead of Rembrandt, who gave Jesus a new look in the 1600s, Versailles, Kentucky, artist Stephen Sawyer is trying to give Jesus a more macho image. Sawyer says Jesus preferred the outdoors, and He couldn't have overturned the money-lenders' tables if he were a wimp. So using a muscular surfer as a model, he paints portraits of Jesus that masculine Christians can relate to. Sawyer depicts Jesus as muscular and tattooed, and as a boxer and a biker.

* First He kicks your ass, and then He heals it.

* He now says, "Blessed are the Harley makers."

* Jesus was a carpenter, so he made Him look like one of those hot remodeler dudes on HGTV.

* His Jesus turned the water into Boilermakers.

Rage Against Reality - In a triumph for feminism, a woman just won the 16th Air Guitar World Championships in Finland. Each contestant had to "perform" twice; once to a song of his or her choosing, then again to Rage Against The Machine's song, "Without A Face." American champion Justin "Nordic Thunder" Howard said, "My strength is that I have absolutely no shame." But that wasn't enough to win: he came in second to Aline "The Devil's Niece" Westphal of Germany. No musical talent or actual guitar-playing ability is required, but the winner receives a hand-crafted electric guitar.

* Why, nobody knows.

* ...An invisible, weightless, hand-crafted electric guitar.

* All the others got the same consolation prize: lifetime room and board in their parents' basement.

* Justin's secret weapon didn't help because, really, none of them have any shame.

But I Want To Walk Over Them! – The organization that assigns sidewalk stars to celebrities on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was asked if they give stars to reality show characters like The Situation, and they replied, "Hell to the No!" They explained that celebrities who've appeared on reality shows, like Gene Simmons, can have stars, but not people known only for reality shows, like Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian or Kate Gosselin. They can get a star only if they later do something else noteworthy, like if Snooki wins an Emmy.

* In other words, they will never get a star.

* Don't give up hope; maybe the Emmys will add an award for "Best Sex Tape."

* They thought about letting Kim Kardashian leave her butt print in cement, but someone might drown in it after a rainstorm.

* If they can't have stars, at least let them put their feet in cement...then throw them into the East River.

Consider It A Very Thorough Circumcision - A jury in Shelbyville, Kentucky, rejected a truck driver's $16 million lawsuit against his surgeon for amputating part of his penis without permission. The doctor was performing a circumcision operation when he spotted what he thought was potentially deadly cancer and made the cuts. The patient claimed it wasn't an emergency, and he should've been consulted after he woke up. But a majority of jurors sided against him. It was a six-man, six-woman jury.

* And they flipped a coin to break the tie.

* They gave him a fair hearing, but somehow, he just came up a little short.

* The surgeon figured that if he'd asked the guy to choose between his penis or his life, they would've been there all day.

A Steaming Load Of Bull - Early yesterday morning, some metal canisters fell off a Greyhound bus as it entered Interstate 65 near downtown Nashville. There were reports of steam and an unpleasant odor coming from the canisters. So firefighters shut down the ramp and called HAZMAT crews, which cleared the area and traced the bus. The leaking canisters turned out to contain straws full of bull semen preserved in liquid nitrogen. The bus driver said he didn't know that he'd lost his load.

* Well, technically, it was the bulls that did that.

* Anyway, thank God and Greyhound it's gone.

* I knew it...If you let people put people bull testicles on pickup trucks, this is the next logical step.

The events included bobbing for burgers in a kiddie pool filled with ketchup; a Jimmy Buffett cover band; the debut of a new taste sensation, the deep-fried cheeseburger; and a beauty contest.

* The winner was the girl with the best buns.

* The talent portion was a deep-fried cheeseburger-eating contest, so you did not want to see the swimsuit competition.

* Deep-frying the cheeseburger helps kill off all the unhealthy nutrients in the lettuce and tomato.

* The least popular event: bobbing for cheeseburgers in the deep fryer.

The school fired him over complaints that he was allegedly abusive toward employees. But he claims he was fired because of his handicap: he's a drunk. He's demanding damages for wrongful termination, emotional distress and damage to his reputation. He says the university should have made "reasonable accommodations" for his handicap of alcoholism.

* Like not expecting any of his communications to be coherent after 10 a.m.

The Law Is An Ass! A Flabby Ass! - 61-year-old Roy Lester of Long Beach, New York is suing the state for wrongful dismissal from his job as a lifeguard. The suit was dismissed once, but just got reinstated. In 2007, he showed up for his annual 100-yard swim test wearing bike shorts. State regulations say lifeguards have to wear "boxers, briefs or board shorts" during the test. Lester says he was ordered to change into a skimpy Speedo and was fired when he refused to do it. Lester says he wore a Speedo in his 20s, "but come on. There should be a law prohibiting anyone over the age of 50 from wearing a Speedo."

* They're right, he shouldn't be a lifeguard...He should be the Governor.

* He has a point...although he probably shouldn't be wearing bike shorts, either.

* He'll win because even though Justice is blind, it's still disgusted by a 61-year-old guy in a Speedo.

Veiled Threat - There's a new fad in China that goes against that culture's famous conservatism. Trendy young couples are posing for nude wedding photos. Usually, they're for the groom's eyes only, and the brides use a little lace or a bouquet to preserve their modesty. But recently, an unidentified bride posed for full frontal photos in Shanghai's Zhoupu Park in nothing but a bridal veil, and they somehow leaked onto the Internet. Now, they're burning up the Chinese media. One newspaper offered $1500 if the bride will come forward to talk about it. Meanwhile, police are studying the photos closely to try to identify the bride and photographer and charge them with outraging public decency.

* They're studying them very closely...Very, very, very, very closely.

* The groom is also watching closely, to see if any other guys come forward and identify her.

*  They're questioning several men named Wang, because she looks like a girl who's been around quite a few Wangs in her time.

She claims that the bodacious boobs she displays in the movie are actually the perfectly realistic-looking result of modern CGI special effects. The webmaster of one celebrity nudity site called it criminal and "an abomination," comparing it to painting a hat on the Mona Lisa.

* Or more like painting bigger boobs on her, except that would be a good idea.

* I should've suspected this when her boobs suddenly transformed into car headlights.

* This is so dishonest! When I pay to see a movie, I expect to see the actress's real fake breasts!

* As part of the movie's plot, she magically switches boobs with Salma Hayek.

As to how anyone could spend that much on a Western, this "Lone Ranger" script reportedly features massive sets and supernatural elements, including werewolves.

* REAL werewolves!...And their agent is a vampire.

* Plus, for some reason, a whole lot of gay pirates.

Do This To More Writers' Computers - Last Thursday in Beverly Hills, an aspiring screenwriter gave a perfect example of how not to break into show business. Police say that he was so desperate to get someone to look at his screenplay, he visited an agent's office and left behind a briefcase that he said contained a computer with his script on it and asked that it be delivered to a certain agent. The agent said the guy had been pestering him and he didn't want it. So a security guard took it into the alley and called the police. The bomb squad sealed off the block and evacuated dozens of people from Rodeo Drive businesses. Then they blew up the briefcase, which turned out to contain nothing but the writer's computer. He was detained for questioning.

* On the bright side, he finally has a good plot for a screenplay.

*  At least he finally has official confirmation that his script was not a bomb.

* This is terrible! Why couldn't it have the computer of the guy who wrote that "Smurfs" movie?!

But he made the mistake of saying "Hello" to a cop, who happened to recognize his voice as James Lester Rogers, a registered sex offender. He was taken to an office and interviewed by a detective who keeps track of local sex offenders, and who said, "There he was, dressed like Cookie Monster. Sounds weird." He was jailed on an aggravated misdemeanor charge. The detective said Rogers isn't allowed at the fairgrounds at all, much less to pose with kids as Cookie Monster.

* But he was so good at it, because he really is a monster!

* You know you're scum when you're not even allowed to hobnob with carnies.

I Like This Theory! - A top professor at Oxford says that Facebook and Twitter are rewriting people's brains to create a generation of child-like adults who are so self-obsessed, they need constant positive feedback. Pharmacology Prof. Baroness Greenfield claims that repeated exposure to social networking can produce symptoms similar to an identity crisis, such as reduced concentration, inability to make eye contact and a need for instant gratification. She said all the appeals to people to "Like" and comment on everything you do are making adults behave like toddlers who demand attention by saying, "Look at me, Mummy, I've done this," even if it's just something as banal as eating breakfast.

* I draw the line when they ask me to praise the boom-boom they made after eating breakfast.

* If you agree with this theory, she'd appreciate any positive feedback.

* People who are heavily into social networking don't need to make eye contact because they're never in the same room with another live human.

* Facebook fans were so upset by her criticism, they created an official protest page and are asking all their Friends to "Like" it.

A Footwear Retrospective - The flop of "Sex & The City 2" has apparently not killed the series, but the next movie might take a different tack to try to attract a younger audience. The buzz in Hollywood is that it will be a prequel based on Candace Bushnell's novels and feature the women in the '70s and '80s when they were teenagers. The hoped-for casting is Blake Lively as Samantha, Selena Gomez as Charlotte, Emma Roberts as Miranda and in Sarah Jessica Parker's role as Carrie Bradshaw, Elizabeth Olsen, younger sister of Mary-Kate and Ashley.

* Mary-Kate and Ashley are too old now.

* So the next movie will show the women in the '70s and '80s, instead of in their 70s and 80s.

* The working title is "Skank Babies."

* If they want to attract a younger audience, call it "Sexting And The City."

Two-thirds of women had sent naked or semi-nude photos of themselves over cell phones, compared to only half the men. The sample might seem skewed, but researcher Dr. Kholos Wysocki, a University of Nebraska women's studies professor, believes it hold true in the general population. She said, "I know young men who are constantly getting naked pictures from women they know on their phones. They're constant!"

The deputies say they looked around and realized the two had been manufacturing methamphetamines and were hallucinating. A spokesman said, "They were so high, they called 911 on themselves."

* They were hoping that the cops were an hallucination, too.

* On the plus side, that must've been their best batch of meth ever.

* Lesson: If you're on meth, avoid full-length mirrors.

* These guys could inspire a TV series called "Breaking Dumb."

Stick With What You Know - Tahir Malik of Skokie, Illinois, was sentenced to two years in prison for impersonating a lawyer. Malik was already a convicted felon with a record including burglary, shoplifting and criminal trespass when he began posing as an attorney. Oddly enough, he handled more than 60 cases without training or a license, and nobody suspected a thing. The Sheriff said, "He did everything right - except obtain a law degree."

* Well, being a lying criminal is pretty good training for being a lawyer.

* He just specialized in burglary, shoplifting and criminal trespass cases.

* He told his clients that he had years of experience within the criminal justice system.

* He would've gotten a lot more prison time, but he acted as his own attorney.

It's A Bloodstained White T-Shirt - In Dacatur, Illinois, Billy Rutherford and his fiancee were waiting outside the courthouse to get married, she in a white gown and he in a red T-shirt, when he was arrested and the wedding was canceled. Back in March, the bride accused him of "beating on her all day," shoving her head into a kitchen cabinet and throwing her through a coffee table. They'd since made up and reconciled, but she forgot to lift the restraining order. So he was arrested for having contact with her on their would-be wedding day. They had planned to get married in court by a judge who'd represented them both in separate cases when he was an attorney.

* Something tells me they were his two best customers.

* She forgot to lift the restraining order? Boy, is she gonna get it now!

* The bride tends to forget things, what with all the concussions.

* If you'd like to send them a wedding gift, they could really use a new coffee table.

Just Plenty Of Lubrication... - A new website called EyeHandy.com offers a new way to encourage men to do household chores. It offers instructional videos featuring scantily-clad women demonstrating how to do all sorts of do-it-yourself projects, from changing a tire to waxing a surfboard. There are 15 videos, and they plan to add a new one each week. In addition to the videos of handy women in lingerie, the site provides a list of all the tools needed to do what you see in the videos.

* And a list of stores that carry the lingerie.

* Could the girls in the videos demonstrate how to handle a tool?

* So far, it's just encouraged men to sit in front of the computer for hours on end.

* Men don't care about how to do it yourself; they want to know how to do her yourself.

Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered – Now that the final Harry Potter movie has opened, the Washington Times reports that many fans could be left feeling depressed and grief-stricken that something they've built so much of their lives around is finally at an end. Daryl Franzetti, a California-based university lecturer on the cultural anthropology of "Star Trek" fandom, said "Potter" junkies need to realize that it's not dead and they're not alone. Something that successful will have inevitable spin-offs, plus they can keep on getting together for conventions where they can dress up as "Potter" characters, make friends and debate "Potter" canon for the rest of their lives.

* The rest of their worthless, pathetic, empty lives.

* That is, if they ever actually get lives.

*  When he puts it that way, now, they're REALLY depressed!

* Isn't there just some kind of potion they could drink to end it all?

* Or they could move to California, where universities apparently pay losers to lecture students about their sad obsessions.

Source Of Misinformation - As proof of how some people will slap the word "organic" on anything, a Welsh company is offering what they call "organic water." "Illanllyr SOURCE" organic water went on display at the Fancy Food Show in Washington. The sellers say that since the water comes from certified organic fields, it's organic as it comes out of the ground. The USDA says organic things have to be carbon-based lifeforms, like vegetables or meat, and water can't be organic because it's just hydrogen and oxygen.

* How about if they put a few strips of bacon in every bottle?

* Come on, "organic" isn't a scientific term. It's a marketing term! That's why the organic water comes in an organic plastic bottle!

* They could just stop calling it organic and start calling it "carbon-neutral."

Flight Of The Worker Bee - Traveling sales consultant Tom Stuker of Bloomingdale, Illinois, has achieved George Clooney's goal in "Up In The Air" by logging 10 million frequent flier miles on United Airlines. Just like in the movie, he was served champagne, given a titanium mileage card and his name was painted on a plane. Stuker said he loves the peacefulness at 40,000 feet and does his best creative work writing training materials on planes. Since joining United's program in 1982, he's taken 5,962 flights. Three times, he's flown for five consecutive days, living entirely on airline meals.

* It's a miracle he didn't become a stand-up comedian.

* He now plans to cash in some of his miles to get a free stomach pump.

* He's also talked women into initiating him into the Mile High Club over 900 times.

* Tell the truth: he really just enjoys the strip searches, doesn't he?

Sleeping Again, You Lazy Little Pig?! - The British government has issued new guidelines to prevent childhood obesity that include a recommendation that babies as young as one year get at least three hours of exercise a day. Since they can't walk yet, it's suggested that parents take them swimming, let them push and pull objects, or roll around on the floor.

* Basically, Amy Winehouse's exercise routine.

* Of course, rolling them around on the floor is easier if they're already obese.

But What Was The Point Of The Last "Sex & The City" Movie? - University of Indiana biologists may have finally answered the age-old Darwinian question: "What is the point of sex?" They engineered two types of the same worm: one type reproduced by two genders mating; the other by cloning itself. They found that the offspring that combined two different DNA strands were more resistant to parasites and lived longer. So the point of sex could be to help ward off parasites. One researcher said, "The co-evolutionary struggle between hosts and their parasites could explain the existence of males."

* She must a female researcher.

* What about sex with males like Kevin Federline or Levi Johnston, who are themselves parasites?

* If sex exists to prevent parasites, why does it spread crabs?

* This would also explain why so many women have sex with guys who are worms.

* Also, sex helps prevent in-breeding, except among royals.

Potential Gas Attack - Monday in Walla Walla, Washington, a large, 2- or 3-gallon container labeled "beans" aroused suspicion when it turned up in the parking of a Department of Social and Health Services Building. Fearing it could be a bomb, workers called police, who evacuated the building and brought in the state bomb squad. The contents were too dense to be X-rayed clearly, so they used a "disrupter" to blast a hole in the side of the can. A lot of white beans spilled out of it.

* If only someone had spilled the beans sooner.

* Don't laugh: you don't realize how explosive three gallons of beans can be.

* Also, some pork came out, so Muslim extremists are not suspected.

San Francisco Has All The Bodybuilders - Men's Health magazine named Lexington, Kentucky, as the most sedentary city in the US, followed by Indianapolis and Jackson, Mississippi. It wasn't just Lexington's aversion to hitting the gym, but the low amounts of physical activity of any kind, like all the households that watched over 15 hours of cable TV a week and bought more than 11 video games a year. The town also has an unusually high death rate from deep vein thrombosis, or clots in the legs from inactivity. Incidentally, the most physically active cities were Seattle, San Francisco and Oakland.

* People in Oakland are always running. For their lives, but it's still running.

* The only things that run in Kentucky are racehorses...And even they have to be whipped.

* In Jackson, Mississippi, cream gravy is a beverage.

* Lexington residents are so furious, they'd call Men's Health and cancel their subscriptions, if anyone there subscribed to Men's Health. Besides, it would mean pressing all those exhausting phone buttons...

You Must Be Jerking Me Around - As part of the 14th annual Beer and Wild Food Challenge in New Zealand, the Green Man Pub in Wellington is offering a drink called the Hoihoi tatea, an apple-infused horse semen drink. Health officials say it's not harmful, but it is expensive, since 20 vials of horse semen cost $300. Head chef Jason Varley admits tasting it and says it's “okay” and “like custard.” Varley says most men won't try it, but women seem to like it. Some joke that they're worried they'll have a baby with a long face. Still, the owner said there have been no repeat customers. He said, “No one's addicted to it, let's put it that way.”

* Well, some women claim they're addicted to it, but once they're in a relationship, they lose their taste for it.

* Men buy one for their dates, and if they'll swallow that, the men ask them for a second date.

* Some men claim they don't like it, then come back afterhours for a quick one.

"I Love You, Woman!" - Despite what women say about men's fear of commitment, an MIT study proves them wrong. First, they interviewed students and passerby to ask whether they thought men or women say, "I love you," first in a relationship. 64 percent said women were most likely to say it first. Then they asked people which person actually said, "I love you," first in their own relationships. In up to 70 percent of cases, it was the man. And on average, men considered saying it 42 days before the woman first considered saying it.

* The man wanted to have sex 42 days before the woman did.

* Just because a man says, "I love you," that hardly means he's ready to commit.

* The woman was still considering whether someone better might come along.

* Every teenager in America will say, "Cool!" * Are those packs of cigarettes or the cover of a Marilyn Manson CD?

As director Greg Hodge put it, many of the new members "were no oil painting." Web masters have since contacted the "unfortunate" new members to tell them they're being dumped. Hodge expressed "sincere regret," and said "it must be a bitter pill to swallow, but better to have had a slice of heaven than never to have tasted it at all."

* What an ugly thing to say.

* It must be devastating to know that you have no chance of dating guys like him.

Waffle House Blue Plate Special - Researchers in Japan claim they've come up with a way to make a synthetic meat substitute from human feces. It involves extracting the basic elements of food - protein, carbohydrates and fats - from sewage and recombining them. Theoretically, it would be no more disgusting than eating plants fertilized with manure, but the very idea is enough to gross people out. Kansas State University food safety Prof. Douglas Powell said, "In the food safety world, we say, 'Don't eat poop. But if you're going to, make sure it's cooked." And if it weren't cooked, Powell said, "I wouldn't touch it."

* Just hearing about it, I may never eat meatloaf again.

* They plan to call it "Soylent Brown."

* It might be edible, but it tastes like crap.

* The difference is that with plants, they wash off the manure.

* One side effect: it goes through you like poop through a goose.

* They got the idea when they tasted Michelob Ultra and thought it was recycled from pony pee.

Too Many Schweddy Balls - A survey of 2,000 British men by the weight loss company Lighter Life For Men found that many are in terrible shape, but not interested in doing anything about it. 30 percent drink at least three times a week, 21 percent pay no attention to what they eat, and one in 10 never exercise. But 52 percent said they'd only lose weight if their doctors ordered them to, 36 percent would only do it if they grew man boobs, and 35 percent wouldn't lose weight unless they were unable to have sex for an extended period of time. And that could happen: 43 percent of the men said they were so fat, they hadn't seen their own penises without using a mirror in the past two years. 16 percent couldn't remember the last time they'd seen their own penis.

* Or that their wives had seen it.

* You mean they haven't stored any photos of it on the Internet?

* 10 percent can't even find it in all the folds of fat.

* The real mystery: How does "Lighter Life For Men" stay in business?

* Judging from this, I'm surprised it isn't British women who are drinking at least three times a week.

In fact, the poll found that 70 percent of men say they find it easier to care for their cars than for their own bodies.

* Well, they do make sure that both their cars and their bodies carry a spare tire.

Artful Dodgers - A New York state appellate court has ruled that lapdancing is not tax-exempt. The case involves an "adult juice bar" in Latham called Nite Moves that was billed nearly $125,000 in unpaid sales tax, but they argued that their dances fall under the category of "dramatic or musical arts performances," which are tax-exempt. They even brought in a cultural anthropologist who researched exotic dance and visited the club, and she testified that the dances were "unequivocally live dramatic choreographed performances." But the five-judge panel ruled that lap dancing doesn't rise to the level of art and the club is not an arts venue, it's a taxable "place of amusement."

* Rule of thumb: if you're paid with a check from a foundation, it's art; if you're paid with singles tucked into your G-string, it's amusement.

* The judges decided that it couldn't be art because it was much too interesting.

* The cultural anthropologist came to her conclusions after watching Britney Spears videos.

But the health department said that while the food code doesn't directly address cicada ice cream, they "advised against it."

Plus As A Dinner Date, She Wouldn't Eat Much - If you're a woman who's lost weight, don't brag to other women about it. University of Liverpool researchers showed test subjects a photo of a slim young woman with a short bio. When women were told she used to be overweight, then asked to judge her personality, they ranked her lower in friendliness, self-discipline and personal hygiene. Researchers said it could be that because women compete with each other in looks and slimness, they hunt for reasons to dislike other women, and knowing she was once overweight gives them one. But when men were told she used to be overweight, they liked her more. They thought it meant she had flaws and didn't think she was perfect, so she might be more friendly and approachable, and they'd have a shot at dating her.

* In other words, they thought she might have really low self-esteem.

* Well, maybe at one time she'd date them...Not so much anymore.

* She's probably free...It's not like she gets invited to “Girls' Night Out.”

* Maybe the women were just ticked at her for doing what they couldn't.

* So if you talk about your diet with your girlfriends and try to hide your weight problem from men, you're doing it all backwards!

To stress this, players are being asked to wear brightly colored shirts and skirts, participate in a beauty contest, and pose in bikinis by a pool to promote a tournament. Some call it sexist, but Wang said women's golf badly needs a bigger audience, and the shy players need to show a beautiful, confident side to the media.

Get Stamped If You Want Reentry - The Budapest insurance company Ergo, which is part of Munich Re, the world's biggest re-insurer, is under fire for holding a Roman-style orgy to reward its best salesmen. The orgy was held in the historic Art Nouveau thermal baths and involved 20 prostitutes with color-coded wristbands. Red wristbands meant the woman would do anything for anyone, and white wristbands meant they were reserved for the top salesmen and board members. After each sex act, the women's arms were stamped to keep track of how many times they'd been frequented. Ergo apologized, calling the orgy a "serious violation" of company rules, and said the managers and board members responsible no longer work there.

* But they didn't fire the salesmen because sales are through the roof this year.

* Arnold Schwarzenegger may apply for their job.

* This gives new meaning to the term, "tramp stamp."

* Munich Re is like the European version of AIG, so they figured throwing away money and screwing people was all part of a day's work.

Goop For Brains
- Gwyneth Paltrow is often mocked for being out of touch with average people on her advice website Goop.com, but she might have set a new standard with her tips for wardrobe staples every woman needs for summer. They can be mixed and matched to create six new looks that Gwyneth models. For instance, you can pair a $785 Stella McCartney Jersey tank dress with an $1840 silk blazer, a $1295 Chloe Bow clutch purse and $750 Mami sandals. Or reuse the blazer with a $515 Stella McCartney denim shirt, $1775 Alaia shoes and a simple gray T-shirt. Total cost of Gwyneth's basic summer wardrobe staples: $18,301.

* But you can reuse the blazer!

* I didn't even know there was such a thing as a $3,000 gray T-shirt.

* Gwyneth loves that she can spend so much less on clothes during the summer.

* It's an entire website just for women who are married to rock stars.

Pants On The Ground - 31-year-old Marshall David Osbourne was arrested in Oklahoma City on indecent exposure charges after someone saw a pair of legs sticking out from behind a soda machine at a grocery store entrance and allegedly discovered Osbourne with his pants down, touching himself. Police hauled him out, took him to jail and handcuffed him to a bench. The officer says he returned from processing Osbourne to find him with his pants down, touching himself on the jail bench. A second indecent exposure charge was added.

* Along with a bill for cleaning the bench.

* Hey, they're the ones who started the sexy stuff by handcuffing him to the bench!

* Masturbating behind a soda machine? He must think Fanta is short for "Fantasizing."

* Coke is the Real Thing...Touching yourself behind a Coke machine is the next best thing to the real thing.

Or If You're A Diet Chef Client - The UK weight loss company Diet Chef surveyed 2,000 British women to ask at what age women should stop wearing certain types of clothing. The results: they should give up ponytails at 51, long hair at 53, leggings at 45, stilettos at 51 and miniskirts at 35. Also, they say women should not wear bikinis after 47 or see-through blouses over 40.

* Before you agree with that, bear in mind that Diane Lane, Salma Hayek, Halle Berry, Monica Belluci and Jennifer Aniston are all over 40.

* Unless you're Helen Mirren, then you shouldn't wear see-through blouses or bikinis over 80.

* How about a different standard? Don't wear bikinis if your hip are over 47.

* By 54, you should wear nothing but floor-length housecoats that close with Velcro.

* How about if women stop wearing miniskirts, stilettos and see-through blouses if they're under 14?

Ding-Dong, The Witch Is Dead - Dorothy Evans of Abergavenny, Wales, has died in her sleep at 84. She was one of the oldest people ever charged with antisocial behavior and was described by a judge as the "original neighbor from Hell." For eight years, she terrorized her neighbors, swearing at them, dropping her underpants, taking a sledgehammer to their wall, and telling their kids she was a witch and would put a spell on them. The judge finally banned her from coming within a mile of her own house, just to give her neighbors a break from her. One neighbor said, "I hope she rests in peace and that we can spend the rest of our lives in peace."

* The whole neighborhood came to the funeral, just to make sure she was really dead.

* People who saw her drop her underpants took a sledgehammer to their own eyes.

* Worst of all was the constantly blasting Susan Boyle CDs.

* Her neighbors called her "the Martha Stewart of Abergavenny."

Waxing Will Never Wane - Inflation in Brazil is rising at the highest level in 15 years, and over the past year, that's led to a 12.4 percent hike in the price of bikini waxes. This is viewed as a catastrophe because the climate keeps women in bikinis and miniskirts year-round. There are 90 waxing parlors in Sao Paulo alone, and all their costs are rising. One salon owner said some women are cutting back on haircuts to make ends meet, but not bikini waxes. She said, "Brazilian women might let their hair grow longer, but they'll never stop getting waxed."

* Even if they think it's a painful rip-off.

* They don't mind long, flowing hair, as long as it's not coming out of their bikinis.

* If they didn't get waxed regularly, they wouldn't feel like full Brazilians.

* Nobody wants to talk about the high cost of bikini waxes...It's like the gorilla in the room, in a bikini.

* Until now, most Brazilians thought "inflation" meant getting butt implants.

Malled By A Dogma - Saudi Arabia's strict rules against the sexes mixing in public usually come down hardest on women. But now, young single men are crying foul over a Jeddah shopping mall's ban on men unless they're accompanied by a female family member. They say it's to keep men from harassing female shoppers. But young men say it's a hassle to fetch their moms or sisters whenever they want to buy one item, even if the mall is nearly empty. One mom agreed that it's also a pain for her to be forced to accompany her son every time he goes shopping; but then, she also has to make him go with her when she shops or else she gets harassed.

* By who? All the men have their mothers with them!

* But she has to make him go with her anyway because somebody has to drive.

* They're afraid men will be ogling the women through the windows at Burqas R Us.

* Do you think they'll ever realize that the only people harassing anybody are the idiots running the mall?

Now You're Cookin' With Gas! - Researchers at the University Hospital of Singapore discovered a possible natural alternative to Viagra. They're developing an impotence treatment based on hydrogen sulphide, the gas that smells like rotten eggs and that schoolboys use to make stink bombs. Studies have shown that the smell of the gas boosts blood flow to the penis and can help men have sex.

* One problem: the smell of the gas also stops women from having sex with you.

* Trust me, I can attest that stinky gas does not help your sex life.

And 300 Times Every Sleeping Hour - Prof. Terri Fisher of Ohio State University disproved the cliche that men think about sex every seven seconds. She asked 163 students of both sexes to carry a chart and mark every time they thought about sex, food or sleep. She found that men think of sex about once every waking hour. Men think about food and sleep more often than sex, and they think about all three more often than women do. Fisher said, "Men are more aware of need-related states, such as being hungry or tired or sexually aroused, and focus on those. They are also better at detecting these states in themselves than women and more willing to express their thoughts."

* As in, "Make me a sandwich."

* When you put it that way, being a selfish pig is really a positive thing. Women should be more like that.

* Maybe men just failed to mark down all the times they think about sex because their pens ran out of ink.

* When a man thinks of "Sex-Food-Sleep," he's thinking about the entire sexual experience.

Baloney - PETA holds protests of meat eating by showing up outside slaughterhouses nearly naked with just their privates concealed, covering their bodies in fake blood, lying on trays and wrapping plastic wrap around themselves, so they resemble big cuts of meat. They say they're challenging people to think about what "meat" is. But Milwaukee Alderman Bob Donovan objected to their permit to protest Friday outside the Cargill meat company, saying it would shock and upset the public. The City Attorney overruled him. PETA's lawyer sniped that someone needs to introduce Donovan to the First Amendment. Donovan replied that PETA needs to be introduced to common sense, and he suggested they learn about it while "enjoying a nice steak sandwich."

* Don't mess with him when you're dressed like a package of meat; he'll carry you back to his giant barbecue grill.

* PETA might have a point: the people who work at the slaughterhouse are really hard to gross out.

* Seeing PETA members dressed as cuts of meat does make you think...It makes you think, "Finally, a use for PETA members!"

* Is it really that wise to disguise yourself as a large piece of meat at a business where they make sausage?

Tiana Is A Girl's Name? Crap! - Yesterday, the Social Security Administration released its list of the most popular American baby names of 2010. For the second year in a row, the #1 names were Jacob and Isabella. Pop culture continues to have a big influence on children's names. Some of the rising names include Tiana (from Disney's "The Princess And The Frog"), Kellan (after Kellan Lutz, star of the "Twilight" movies), Knox (after one of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's twins), and Maci and Bentley (after Maci Bookout and her son Bentley, from the reality show, "Teen Mom"). But in a sad sign of passing time, for the first time since 1954, the name "Elvis" failed to make the top 1,000 baby names.

* Which is too bad, because if your kid was named Elvis, he could beat the snot out of anyone named Knox or Bentley.

* But it is in the top 10 dog names.

* I don't know if I want to live in a world where there are more Snookis than Elvises.

* Maci and Bentley are so popular because that's what all the unwed teenage mothers name their babies.

* It's a lot easier to compile this list in the Middle East...The only name on it is Mohammed.

A 23-year-old man had attempted to leave when a stripper chased after him, claiming he had failed to pay her for lap dances. Witnesses say he denied owing her money and tried to drive away, but the woman opened his car door and held on tight. She was "half-dragged, half-swung" between the door and the car has he continued to drive a short distance. No arrests were made, but the man was cited for driving on a suspended license.

* And for having an unsecured, free-swinging woman.

* She wanted to charge him for the laps they did around the parking lot.

* Her stripper name is "Tenacious DeDe."

* Luckily, she has built-in Triple-E airbags.

When he was told that the garden section was closed and he'd have to come back later, he began yelling and refused to leave. Clerks called police, who told him he'd have to leave. As they were escorting him out, he allegedly hit one officer with the weed whacker and had to be subdued by several cops. He was held on $17,500 bail after being arrested on various charges. They include aggravated assault on a police office and unlawful possession of a weapon: the Sears weed whacker.

* His lawyer entered an insanity plea...His client is obviously a wack job.

My Heart Bleeds For Them - A sex survey by Australia's University of New South Wales confirmed some stereotypes but destroyed another. As expected, 57 percent of men between age 34 and 44 want more sex, and 50 percent of men age 55 to 64 want more. Only about half as many women as men in those older age groups want more sex. But surprisingly, only 31 percent of men age 16 to 24 want more sex. In fact, 12 percent of young men said they wanted less sex, the highest of any age group. The researchers say it disproves the myth that young men are dying for more sex. In fact, many are overwhelmed by aggressive modern girls pushing them into relationships.

* Allow me to give them some advice from the voice of experience: "Get it while you can!"

* They should do what we did and learn to take matters into their own hands.

* Maybe the young men want less sex because they're the ones doing it with the 55- to 64-year-old women.

* How come when I was 18, the only thing girls wanted more of was cute shoes?

They say they just need one more to move forward. That's because tickets will cost $150 million each.

* Plus $25 for each piece of luggage.

* Wow! How much for the return trip?

Magnus Dopus - A researcher in London's Royal Society of Chemistry archives has discovered a previously unknown guidebook to women, written in 1505. It's believed to have been written by theologian and "scientist" Albertus Magnus, to help priests understand and avoid women. It was progressive in its day, when women were often put to death or tortured, but it wasn't very accurate. The book described females as "failed males," whose pregnancy cravings are caused by "evil humours." It says that if you want to know if a woman is a virgin, make her sniff a lettuce, and if she then needs to go to the bathroom, she is "corrupted." The book also claims that during their time of the month, women can kill animals with just a look.

* Okay, so he got one right...

* Not just animals! Husbands, too!

* If she has to run straight to the bathroom, maybe the lettuce is corrupted.

* Another weakness of women: they're very superstitious.

* This is the same book priests still use to understand women.

McDonough was caught on security video last May, exposing himself to people in Sears. He was identified because he used his credit card to make a purchase during the same visit. He escaped jail due to overcrowding, but he got probation, a $250 fine, a ban from all Sears stores, and he was moved to a desk job until he could be fired. Apparently, he's an amateur social scientist. He claimed that he had pulled his zipper down "in an attempt to determine who would advise him that his zipper was down."

How About "Mother's Little Helper"? - There are so many wines these days that they try to invent attention-getting names, like "Cleavage Creek" and "Big Red Pecker" (with a rooster on the label). Now, the goofy names have sparked a federal lawsuit, with makers of "Mommyjuice" wine wanting a ruling that they are not violating the trademark of "Mommy's Time Out" wine. Both wines target overworked moms: the label of Mommyjuice suggests moms "tuck your kids into bed, sit down and have a glass of Mommyjuice. Because you deserve it." "Mommy's Time Out" claims the similar names create confusion in the mind of the consumer, but the makers of Mommyjuice say that "mommy" is a generic term.

* I thought "Mommyjuice" referred to breast milk.

* What if they changed "Mommyjuice" to "Mommy Juiced"?

* The kind of mommies they're targeting would buy a case of each.

* If their consumers are confused, it's probably because they're drunk.

* I prefer Cleavage Creek Wine...it's a luscious, full-bodied wine that comes in big jugs.

She said he'd done it three times in the past three weeks. Police set up a sting operation and waited. They busted him when he returned to the parking lot and did it again while staring at the woman in the Statue of Liberty costume. After his arrest, he told police that he just wanted to go home and do his taxes.

Lady Libertine
- The U.S. Post Office was embarrassed after a stamp collector called to ask if they were aware that their stamp honoring one of the great symbols of America, the Statue of Liberty, didn't depict the real Lady Liberty. It's actually a photo of the half-size, fiberglass and Styrofoam replica outside the New York-New York Casino in Las Vegas. Officials said they won't recall the stamp; they'll just change the description in their catalog and live with the mistake. Naturally, it delighted the casino owner, MGM Resorts, which is now the first Vegas casino on a U.S. Postage stamp. They said everyone thought it was honoring just one great American institution, but it was actually honoring two.

* Liberty and cheap buffets.

Flying With Harpo Marx - Staffers at Virgin Atlantic Airlines were surveyed about the strangest things people had tried to check in as luggage. One couple tried to bring on a souvenir of their holiday in Grenada: a bag full of sand and seawater. Other things people have tried to get onto planes: a car engine, a bath tub, a dead cow, a tarantula hidden in a lady's coat, a giant wheel of cheese, and a bag of cutlery stolen from a previous Virgin Airlines flight.

* That would come in handy for carving up the dead cow.

* That lady had also been to Grenada, and she didn't know there was a tarantula in her coat.

* So apparently, all those full-body cavity searches are working.

* The bathtub was because the moist towelettes just don't do the job.

* When you get on a plane these days, it might be a good idea to bring a spare engine along.

Hannah Montana Hides The Banana - For perverts who waited anxiously for Miley Cyrus to finally turn 18, good news: Pipedream Products has now released an inflatable lookalike love doll called "Finally Miley." They boast that it has "three achy love holes," and that the first run sold out within 48 hours. They've previously marketed love dolls that look like Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Britney Spears, Kim Kardashian and other celebrities. Miley is said to be "disgusted." The company hopes to sell as many more as possible before getting the expected cease-and-desist order.

* Miley says that nobody should be allowed to reduce her to some mindless, plastic sex object, other than herself!

* They like to think of it as "going the extra Miley."

* The Kim Kardashian is the most popular, even though it takes three times longer to inflate.

* The Britney Spears blowup doll is very realistic, except that it's much smarter than the real Britney.

* The Lady Gaga isn't that attractive, but it does come with both sets of genitals.

Baptizing The Worm - Philip Mockli is suing his hometown of Preston, Idaho, claiming the Republican officials' ban on the sale of liquor by the drink violates his religious freedom. Mockli is the founder and "Head Honcho" of his own religion, the Ethereal Enigmatic Euphoric Movement Toward Civilized Hedonism. He says they're being denied the sacred rite of their religion to drink tequila shots in bars.

* This is always followed by the Passion Play, which is what they call Jello wrestling.

* He really is living in his own private Idaho.

* The ritual is to drink tequila until you see God...or until you can't remember what E.E.E.M.T.C.H. stands for.

I Thought Trojans Prevent Things From Going Viral - The Kappa Sigma fraternity at the University of Southern California has suspended a member after he had sex with his girlfriend in broad daylight on the roof of the 12-story School of Education building. It drew a crowd of hundreds of gawkers, and photos and video soon went viral on the Internet. The girlfriend doesn't attend USC. The frat suspended him for "conduct unbecoming of a Kappa Sigma and a gentleman." A USC spokesman told the Daily Trojan campus paper that they're still investigating to determine if the student violated university policies that prohibit unauthorized access to building roofs.

*  Apparently, he used the rear entrance.

* Hey, some guys just like being on top.

* Haven't they been punished enough? If you think carpet burn is bad, try doing it on hot shingles.

* Why are they so upset about a student having sex when the school paper is called the Daily Trojan?

* Having sex on a roof in broad daylight is unbecoming of a frat member? I remember when that was what you had to do to get initiated.

Christina Can’t Even Find The Words - Someone is trying to sell the tabloids hundreds of "provocative" photos of Christina Aguilera taken from a digital storage card found in a French hotel room. There are reportedly no nudes or sex shots, but they include shots of Christina with two nude male strippers; dancing on a table; drinking and smoking a cigar at a bachelorette party for Nicole Richie, who's in a bikini with a male blow-up doll strapped to her; Christina mimicking oral sex with a chocolate covered banana at a theme park; and Christina and her son at a goat farm. So far, nobody's bought them.

* Maybe if they removed the pictures of Nicole Ritchie in a bikini...

* There's nothing really shocking, like a photo of her reading a book.

* The thief hoped to find a picture of her in the bathtub, but turns out she doesn't bathe.

* The one with the banana is labeled, "How I got my first recording contract."

* She wasn't mimicking oral sex...These days, she just really loves chocolate-covered bananas.

Could We Just Ban Ugly People From Having Sex? - In Alaska, a seven-member board nominates state judges, and the governor has nominated Don Haase ("Hays") to fill a spot. But he ran into some trouble Monday under questioning by Senate Democrats. They noted that he failed to mention he used to lead the social conservative group Eagle Forum Alaska. Asked if he agreed with them that adultery should be a felony, he said maybe not a felony, but it should be illegal because it hurts kids and spouses. And should premarital sex be illegal? He said it should be up to the voters, but he'd vote to make it a crime because of the spread of disease and the likelihood that it could lead to violence. Haase insisted that he would not let his beliefs influence his picks for judge.

* Although he might pick Judge Judy...She looks like she wouldn't put up with any hanky-panky.

* Plus, it's Alaska, so you've gotta keep warm somehow.

* Democrats were appalled, although they kind of like the idea of locking up Bristol Palin.

* Senate Democrats will compromise on a lot of things, but there's no way they'll allow adultery to become illegal!

* If sex leads to violence, then you're really doing it wrong.

The Brick Didn't Even Get Laid - Madonna is facing lawsuits in Malawi and a lot of bad publicity after canceling plans to build a $15 million school there for poor girls. Locals were already furious at her for allegedly skirting rules to adopt two Malawi kids and forcing a village to move to make way for her elite school. She loaned the fund millions and hit up fellow stars and Kabbalah backers for more. But it all fell apart when the charity's executive director, the partner of Madonna's former personal trainer, quit after it was revealed that he and staffers had squandered $3.8 million on salaries, golf memberships, chauffeured cars, offices and other luxuries before the first brick was laid.

* How could anyone NOT trust a multimillion dollar project to the partner of their former personal trainer?

* There's still $11 million left, but you can't build a school in Malawi for that.

* Locals will build their own school and name it after Madonna...It will be called "Scary White Witch Who Steals Our Children and Destroys Our Villages" Elementary.

* Even if there's no school, they still learned a valuable lesson: "Never trust rich white people."

Is The Only Cottage Cheese In Your House On Your Thighs? - Americans might be fat, but that doesn't mean we have to believe we're fat. Columbia University researchers asked 111 moms and 111 kids to choose which of several body size pictures was the closest match to their own. Over 80 percent of obese and overweight moms and kids picked bodies that were thinner than they really were. It suggests that one reason there might be an obesity epidemic is that a lot of fat people just don't realize they're fat.

* Of course they don't; only really skinny people think they're fat.

* They seriously believe their pants shrunk 13 inches in the washer.

* Maybe we could get George Lopez to do jokes about how much like pigs they are. That might help.

* What if there were no photos that were as fat as they actually were?

* 100 percent of dads think they're thinner than they really are.

Who Cares? We're Extinct! - Last Wednesday, the IHME art festival in Helsinki began the premiere of a movie called "Modern Times Forever" by a Danish art group. And it's still going on because it's the world's longest movie. It lasts 240 hours - 10 full days.  It just shows a famous Helsinki building falling into a dilapidated state as time speeds into the future, humans go extinct and the building is battered by time and the elements.

* Pretty much the same way the audience feels after watching it.

* Still, it doesn't feel as long as "Sex & The City 2."

* Extinction would be preferable to sitting through this.

* While it's playing, viewers will go to the bathroom 50 times, and each time ask, "Did I miss anything?" And the answer will always be "no."

* Something new is rotten in Denmark.

Fishy Story - Iran's official news agency claims that Iran has made a breakthrough that proves it's on the cutting edge of science. No, not a nuclear weapon: they've developed a flying saucer. They say it's an unmanned saucer equipped with GPS, autopilot and HD recording, and it can be used for aerial imaging and "various missions." But they didn't release any photos or video, which raised suspicions about their claim. Iran also claimed four years ago to have developed a "super-modern," radar-evading, flying boat, but to this day, nobody's ever seen it.

* Wow! It REALLY works!

* All of the Middle East's super-modern weapons are invisible...That explains Iraq's WMD's.

* It's hard to believe Iran has a saucer when most of the people don't even have a pot.

* The flying saucer uses the same Iranian technology pioneered by the flying carpet.

* Just in case, Israel is spending $10 billion on anti-flying saucer guns.

Are These People Rattled? - Wheeling, Illinois, plans to spend $1.2 million to build a paved bike and pedestrian path from the Des Plaines River to Interstate 294. It won't be finished until late 2012, which gives officials time to figure out what to do about the fact that it runs right next to the habitat of now-hibernating eastern massasauga rattlesnakes. Since the poisonous rattlers are endangered, environmental officials assume "the project will have an adverse effect on the snakes' habitat," so it will require a special permit and a study of how to minimize the pedestrians' impact on the rattlesnakes.

* Their main impact on the rattlesnakes will be to make them fatter.

* It will be a lengthy study, something you can really sink your teeth into.

* I predict that by 2014, bicyclists and pedestrians will be endangered species.

* Cost of the environmental impact study: $1.2 million.

But Now, Everything's Perfect! - It's said that you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find Prince Charming, but most women go through worse than that. A poll of 2,000 women by the dating webite Meeteez.com found that the average woman kissed 22 men, had six one-night stands, went on six bad dates that never went anywhere, and had her heart broken five times before meeting Mr. Right. The average woman has also been cheated on four times.

* By Mr. Right.

* The six one-night stands were just Mr. Right Now.

* Unfortunately, Mr. Right said he was looking for a virgin.

* If this woman has warts, she's lucky if she got them from kissing frogs.

* The average woman would be better off if more of her dates hadn't gone anywhere.

She Didn't Have A Purse That Matched Her Outfit - Karin Mackaliunas of Scranton, Pennsylvania, crashed her car on an off-ramp Sunday. It was towed and she was about to leave when police got a call that she was suspected of stealing items from the Dunmore Inn hotel. A search turned up three bags of heroin on her, so she was taken in. Police noticed she was fidgeting on the backseat, and at the police station, they say she admitted to have more heroin hidden in her vagina. She certainly did: a search of that area turned up 54 bags of heroin, 31 empty plastic bags used to transport heroin, 8-and-a-half prescription pills, and $51.22 in cash.

* All in pennies.

* It's really inconvenient when she has to buy gas.

* Also, a robe and three bath towels from the Dunmore Inn hotel.

* Searching her was like a magic act...Her vagina is like Harpo Marx's overcoat.

Really Mad Men - A Terminex pest control franchise in Dallas, Texas, found a creepy new way to advertise. To make the point that cockroaches spread disease, they put up a sign in front of the Angelika movie theater that spelled out "E COLI" in clear, three-dimensional plastic letters. Bug wranglers then filled the letters with about 5,000 live, teeming roaches, funneled into the letters from soda bottles. Some passersby were amused, others terrified or disgusted. A spokesman for the ad agency said they have a staffer who lived in New York, and it was hard for her to work on this campaign.

* It just made her too nostalgic for her old apartment.

* You'd think that with a job in an ad agency, she'd be used to working with cockroaches.

* This idea went over a lot better with Terminex than it did when they pitched it to Taco Bell.

It's a gag gift book with the title, "What Every Man Thinks About, Apart From Sex." "Author" Sheridan Simove said it took nine days from idea to finished book in hand, and he's fiercely proud to now be a best-selling author. His blank book sold out its first print run, and passed "The DaVinci Code" and one of the "Harry Potter" books on the sales charts. Simove said, "I am thinking about a follow-up called 'Reasons to Trust Politicians.'"

* That would also be blank, but only two pages long.

* How about "Reasons Why Good Writers Should Even Try To Get Published Anymore"?

* But he didn't think about it for long before he got distracted thinking about sex.

* It's a great gift for girls like Kim Kardashian or Paris Hilton...Not because they'd find it funny, but because they'd find it easy to read.

* He's thrilled to have a best-selling book because he'll get a lot more sex now.

But not two minutes after the women arrived, two armed male accomplices burst through the door and stole the clients' money, luggage, watches and cell phones. Police are still looking for them. They say this happens often, but the victims are usually too embarrassed to report it. A police spokesman said it shows "it is a terrible idea to invite total strangers into your house, especially after you have been drinking."

* For a lot of guys, getting drunk and inviting paid strangers into their houses is their entire social life.

To achieve that, they launched a "Zero Tolerance for Pissing" campaign and insured there were portable toilets in all crowded areas. But it's not working. Just in the first weekend of Carnival, 214 beer-swilling revelers were arrested for urinating on the streets or in doorways. Most were men. Officials blamed the long lines at portable toilets and promised to bring in even more.

* That way, people won't have to wait in line so long to pee on the portable toilets.

* On the bright side, this frees up the portable toilets for having sex.

* The theme of this year's Carnival is "Follow The Yellow Brick Road."

"They Abducted My Clocks, Too?" - The British government just released 35 previously classified UFO files dating back to the '50s. Some were unexplained, and some obvious hoaxes. Among the latter was a man who called the government, claiming he'd been having a drink in his garden when he was terrified by a huge, cigar-shaped UFO that passed over. He said he woke up the next morning and his clocks were behind the time on the radio, so he might've been abducted by aliens and experienced "missing time." They told him daylight savings time had started and to move his clocks forward an hour.

* So now he thinks alien spacecraft observe daylight savings time.

* He had missing time, but he found it again in the fall.

* I have a feeling both the UFO and the missing time could be explained by the drink he was having.

* They were also suspicious that the UFO he described was actually shaped like an anal probe.

For instance, it uses an iPad to control the entertainment system, climate control and other functions. And it has an environmentally-friendly electric motor that goes 186.4 miles on a charge.

* By the time we got to Woodstock, we'd be dead of old age.

* But you have to drive 5 mph, which considering how old and stoned the drivers will be, is about right.

* When the battery goes dead, you can relive those nostalgic days of having to push your VW van to the nearest service station.

* If this van's a-rockin', it's only because the car seats are actual rocking chairs.

* It also has separate compartments to hold your sunglasses, your cane and your medicinal marijuana.

He said the alleged voice sounded like a female alien purring like a cat. He said it was "as if a woman was saying 'meow-meow' all the time." He got no response. Airport officials had no comment.

But Surely, The Botox! - Former Ohio TV news anchor Anietra Hamper landed in tax court last week for attempting to deduct $167,356 worth of beauty-related expenses from her income taxes over three years. The expenses included business suits, sportswear, eveningwear, jewelry, shoes, gym memberships, dry cleaning, manicures, teeth whitening, loungewear, a robe, bedding, lingerie and even bikini and thong panties. Her attorney argued that all those things were necessary to do her job because she had to appear before the community at all times looking neat, professional and conservative. But the court ruled that none of those things were ordinary and necessary business expenses for a TV newsperson.

* If that's the criteria, then I'm assuming they did allow all the plastic surgery.

* But without sexy lingerie and bedding, you can't even land a job as a TV newsbabe!

* That's ridiculous! When she's not on camera, she doesn't even wear panties!

* Now, if she'd worked for Fox News, breast implants and hair bleach would've been deductible.

It was followed by "There's no place like home" from "The Wizard of Oz" and "Carpe diem" ("Seize the day") from "Dead Poets Society." Others in the top ten included "Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'," "May the Force be with you," and "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn." The researchers said that in such a materialistic society, they were surprised that "Show me the money!" didn't rank higher, but it only came in 10th.

* I would adopt that as my philosophy of life if someone would pay me to.

* I'd not surprised that most Americans' personal philosophy involved eating chocolate.

* Most Americans think "Carpe diem" means "Complain every day."

* Americans love Forest Gump so much, we keep sending people like him to Washington.

She jumped out at a red light and escaped. But Cade has a novel excuse: he says the whole time, he had a diamond ring in his pocket and was planning to propose to her. He said, "People do all sorts of strange things when they get engaged. They put the ring in food, all kinds of things. Yeah, I said some things, but it was all part of the buildup." The judge didn't buy it and set bail at $300,000.

Trojan, Horse? - A Derby, Connecticut, man accused of sexually abusing a neighbor's horse certainly got the right lawyer. Even though the neighbor says he caught the man with his arm halfway up his horse's private parts, Ralph Crozier says the defendant denies "from the get-go" that he abused that horse. He says his client is "a mild, church-going man with no previous criminal involvement," and the case has been blown out of proportion. He insists, "If this was a guy and a sheep in Litchfield, and I've had a few of those cases, this would not have gotten nearly the media attention it has. But I guess because a horse is higher off the ground, it leaves a little more to the imagination."

* No, actually, that just gives you a better view.

* I think this guy's client needs to climb down off his high horse.

* When you have sex with horses, getting blown out of proportion is just part of the deal.

* If he's such a fine, upstanding citizen, how come nobody wants to shake his hand?

* He's trying to prove that molesting a horse isn't really that low, compared to being a lawyer.

Britain's Mindlab International Laboratory asked people what songs they liked most, then played those songs and others while measuring their brain activity and skin reactions to see which ones really excited them and improved their moods. The song that got the best reaction was the pop ballad "Greatest Day" by the UK boy band Take That, followed closely by ABBA's "Dancing Queen." The subjects had ranked those simplistic, feel-good pop tunes as being among their least favorite songs, but the brain and skin monitors revealed they were really their favorites.

During a strip search, jailers noticed the end of a condom sticking out of his rectum. They removed it and found that it contained 30 items, including 17 blue pills, a cigarette, six matches, a flint, a lip balm container, an empty syringe with an eraser covering the needle point, an unused condom, a pharmacy receipt and a discount coupon. He's now facing extra charges of bringing drug and tobacco products into jail.

* His response: "Up yours!"

* The discount coupon was for Vaseline.

* If you can let your smile be your umbrella, then your butt can be your luggage rack.

* If he'd known he'd be staying over so long, he would've packed his hairdryer.

* That's where he keeps his receipts? I'm glad I'm not his tax preparer.

Erma Shave - The latest beauty secret of Hollywood starlets is that they're giving up laser hair removal and just shaving their faces like men. It's because new high-def digital cameras pick up the light fuzz that only razors can remove. The razor also exfoliates the face, leaving the skin looking smooth and young. Experts say it's nothing new: even Elizabeth Taylor and Marilyn Monroe used to shave. A dermatologist said that shaving doesn't make the hair grow back thicker or darker; that's "an old wives' tale.'

* Well, it grows back thicker and darker on old wives.

* That would explain why so many celebrity perfumes smell like Aqua Velva.

* The only star left who doesn't shave: Justin Bieber.

* If this keeps up, the only stars left in Hollywood with beards will be Tom Cruise and John Travolta.

I've Got A Crush On You - New York's Bronx Zoo offered a unique Valentine’s Day gift: name a cockroach after your Valentine. Their ad copy read, "Flowers wilt. Chocolates melt. Roaches are forever." A $10 donation bought a certificate confirming that one of the zoo's Madagascar hissing cockroaches, the largest and noisiest roach in the world, is named after your significant other. Nearly a thousand sold the first day, but the zoo still had 57,000 more roaches to name.

* And the next day, they had 400,000.

* That means they actually had fewer roaches than any other place in the Bronx.

* If you give her this, every time she thinks of you, she'll think of a giant cockroach...Guaranteed!

The Big Bang Theory - In Britain, the recession-born frugality still lingers. Debenhams department store reports that sales of sexy lingerie as Valentine gifts are far outstripping sales of expensive roses and chocolates. A spokeswoman said lingerie is less expensive, lasts longer, and provides "hours of fun after the rose petals have wilted." She said, "Lingerie is for love on a budget. It really is the gift that keeps giving," and it gives buyers a bigger "bang for their buck."

* Literally.

* Well, we are talking British couples, so don't expect that big a bang.

* It's cost-effective for an Englishman to give a woman lingerie because it's something they both can wear.

* Valentine roses are a rip-off, but lingerie is only a rip-off if you rip it off.

* If you're really concerned about money, don't think about how much you're paying per square inch of material.

He Doesn't Have A Leg To Stand On - A quadriplegic man named Jose Martinez is suing Disneyland under the Americans With Disabilities Act. He says he was on the "It's A Small World" ride when it stalled, and he was stuck there for 40 minutes while staffers figured out how to remove him from the boat. Martinez claims they didn't have procedures in place for such a situation, which Disney denies, and that staffers should have called paramedics when his blood pressure spiked. He's seeking damages for liability, negligence and emotional distress.

* Also cruel and unusual punishment.

* Plus the cost of a lobotomy to get that song out of his head.

* Oh chill out!  Everybody's blood pressure spikes on that ride!

* Disney's attorneys say they're sorry he was inconvenienced, but hey...It's a world of laughter, a world of tears...

Adult Swim - Candice Connor of New York City claimed that she bought two cartoon DVDs for her sons, ages 3 and 11, and was shocked when one turned out to be porn. It was labeled "Nickelodeon All-Stat Sports Day," featuring "Go, Diego, Do," but she says it was really "Bubble Butt Bonanza #17." Her 11-year-oldson told the Daily News, "I saw a Caucasian Lady and man, and they were naked. I was surprised. I was very disgusted." Connor says she is hiring a lawyer. A Toys R Us manager said they'd received no similar complaints.

* Apparently, all the other kids LOVE "Bubble Butt Bonanza."

* I don't know why her son was so disgusted. He LOVED "Bubble Butt Bonanza," Numbers 1 through 16.

* To be fair, the Caucasian lady on the video was saying, "Go, Diego, go!"

* The other DVD was "Dora The Explorer," and it showed her exploring her sexuality...She teamed up with a new cartoon character: "Spongebob Hotpants."

Hard To Swallow - Over the weekend, hundreds of skeptics around the world deliberately took drug overdoses. They were all homeopathic remedies, which are diluted to the point that maybe one molecule of the active ingredient remains. Proponents say that's enough to stimulate the body to heal itself, and they're always pushing for government and insurance coverage of homeopathic medicines. But skeptics say they're nothing but water, and Saturday, hundreds of them in 25 nations took megadoses of the medicines to prove it. Nobody suffered any ill effects, or any effects whatsoever. One skeptics group in West Virginia swallowed a million times the recommended dose of a homeopathic sleep remedy and not only didn't get sick or die, they didn't even get sleepy.

* Just bloaty.

* It did cure their thirst.

* Some of them wanted to take a nap, but they were too desperate to go pee.

* If I wanted a glass of water that costs as much as prescription medicine, I'd order a Perrier.

* They proved that homeopathic medical claims don't contain even one molecule of truth.

Tutu Skinny - The Big Ballet, an all-female troupe for larger women, is suffering a shortage of fat ballerinas. The troupe was formed 13 years ago in Russia to challenge social norms and prove that bigger women could dance gracefully. Back then, you had to weigh at least 238 pounds to join, but now, they've had to lower the minimum weight to 210 pounds. They say the number of hopeful applicants has dropped significantly. They blame it on the worldwide success of healthy eating campaigns by celebrities, like chef Jamie Oliver.

* Or Michelle Obama, whose Super Bowl menu will have you at a slim 210 pounds in no time.

* My question: have they tried holding auditions in America?

* They don't have male dancers to lift them...Their insurer got tired of paying for all the hernias.

* To make it past the first audition, you have to eat a regular-sized ballerina.

* Their performances are like "The Black Swan," if it had been about penguins instead.

Next Time, Use The Hole In Your Head
- A house fire in Portland, Oregon, that did about $30,000 worth of damage reportedly started because residents were using a hole in the floor as an ashtray for their cigarettes. A fire department spokesman said if that's true, that's not careless smoking, "that's stupid smoking."

* People need to start smoking smart.

* Especially since they were using the basement to store their collection of gas cans.

A Womb With A View - The Corallium Spa on Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands is offering the ultimate nostalgia trip: "The Womb Room." Guests can return to the womb by entering a pink-carpeted passageway dubbed the "neck of the uterus." Inside, there are dim lights, pink carpeting splashed with red fabric, and blood red water beds designed to resemble the amniotic sac. "Breathy" music plays to simulate the sounds inside the womb, and the entire room slowly revolves to simulate a giant umbilical cord. A spokeswoman said if a guest is having trouble falling asleep, "The Womb Room could be the answer."

* It'll make you scream until you pass out.

* You sleep great until time is up, and then they grab you with tongs, drag you out headfirst and slap you on the butt.

* Most guys relax on vacation by only trying to return part of themselves to the womb.

A New Wrinkle - A Valentine's Day survey of 1,000 American women by NPD Group found good news for the cosmetics and anti-aging industries. By a 91 to 9 percent margin, women said they would rather receive a lump sum gift of $1,000 cash than get free chocolates every week for five years. And the number one thing they would spend the money on was beauty and anti-aging products. It shows women are ready to spend money on their looks after scrimping through two years of recession. There's also good news for men: by a slightly less lopsided 73 to 27 percent margin, a majority of women said they'd rather have great sex every week for five years than free chocolate every week for five years.

* Well, except for one week out of every month.

* Would they settle for mediocre sex if I toss in a free Hershey bar?

* But only if the great sex is with Brad Pitt; otherwise, they'll take the chocolate.

* Charlie Sheen's girlfriends expect both sex and a lump sum cash payment.

* One warning: no matter what they say, if you give a woman anti-aging cream instead of chocolates for Valentine's Day, you will never have sex again.

Danger Zone
- China's state broadcaster, CCTV (Chine Central Television) is under scrutiny after they aired a news story about a People's Liberation Army Air Force training exercise illustrated with footage of a plane blowing up another plane with a missile. Sharp-eyed Internet surfers recognized the "news" footage as a clip from the 1986 Tom Cruise movie, "Top Gun." It's sparked a wave of mocking Internet posts by people who say they're fed up with CCTV's phony propaganda.

* CCTV insisted that it's not phony propaganda: Tom Cruise really is macho!

* We should know by now: the Chinese military will steal anything.

* Wait, so does this mean the Chinese Air Force didn't save Tokyo from Godzilla?

* There is also no truth to CCTV's claim that Chinese scientists have invented a Hot Tub Time Machine.

Find A Good American Actor, Like Hugh Laurie! - Some comic book fans might be crying heresy over the casting for the upcoming reboot of the "Superman" movie franchise. The superhero who fights for "Truth, Justice and the American Way" will be played by British hunk Henry Cavill, best known for his role as Charles Brandon on Showtime's "The Tudors." The studio says they want to make Superman "as contemporary as possible," and Cavill has a "modern feel." With this casting, Brits have now taken over the big three American superhero roles, with a British Superman, a Welsh Batman (Christian Bale) and British-born Andrew Garfield as the new Spider-Man.

* He doesn't sling webs; he places them carefully on the backs of chairs like lace doilies.

* I still think it was a bad idea to cast Ricky Gervais as Captain America.

* Apparently, fighting evil is now a job that Americans just won't do.

* They all have muscles of steel and teeth of cork.

* For some reason, British actors are just more comfortable wearing tights and a cape.

* I say in retaliation, Adam Sandler should be the next James Bond.

Fox News' Ratings Explained - An Indiana University study confirms what most people long suspected: men pay attention when hot women read the news on TV, but they're not paying attention to the news. Test subjects watched two taped newscasts: one with an attractive woman done up to look hot, in a sexy, cleavage-baring dress, and the other read by the same woman in a modest dress and no makeup. They were then tested on what they remembered from each newscast. The men watched the woman much more closely when she looked hot, but they remembered less of what she said.

* Probably because they preferred watching her with the sound off.

* On the bright side, they didn't really care what she said.

* This might explain why Fox News viewers score lower on current events tests.

* This is very disappointing for all the hot blond newsbabes, after they worked so hard to learn how to read.

It includes a cleanser, mineral blush, eye shadow, lash mascara, face shimmer and more. They're described as "mother approved" cosmetics formulated for young skin, with natural ingredients, such as willow bark, chamomile, and antioxidants to prevent aging. They will replace the vacating Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen makeup line.

* And the now-defunct Roman Polanski makeup line.

* The target demographic for this makeup could be the Olsen Twins' daughters.

* Question: Do you really want to stop aging when you're 8 years old?

* Eight-year-olds don't need anti-aging makeup! They're already on Botox!

* By "mother-approved," they mean Lindsay Lohan's mother.

"Skins'" British creator Bryan Eisley defended it as a "very simple and in fact, rather old-fashioned television series...about the lives and loves of teenagers" and "how they get through high school."

* Or how Lindsay Lohan got through junior high.

* It's old fashioned because it shows the teenagers having sex with each other instead of their teachers.

* It's old fashioned, like "Leave It To Beaver"...which coincidentally, might be a better name for it.

* It's really very conservative...It's designed to promote home-schooling.

Escort Me To The Bedroom - Hubert Blackman of New York is suing the Las Vegas Exclusive Personals escort service, claiming his call girl shortchanged him by not staying long enough. He claims he paid $155 to have a stripper visit his hotel room, plus $120 more to stay for another hour and perform a sex act on him. But when she left after just 30 minutes, he called the service to demand a refund. When they refused, he complained to the police, who threatened him with arrest. Blackman says he was unaware that prostitution is illegal in Vegas, and that the woman suggested the sex act. He called the whole experience a "tragic event," and is suing for his $275 back plus $1.8 million in damages.

* Good lord, how many times did he think he could have sex in that extra half an hour?!

* He assumed that if you could hire a woman to come to your room, get naked and slide down a pole, then prostitution must be legal.

* Come on, she was there for 30 minutes! That's long enough for most men to have sex 15 times!

* Prostitution is so illegal in Vegas that if you tell the cops you did it, they'll threaten you with arrest.

Every two weeks, he would put the jeans in a freezer overnight, and he says there was never a trace of odor. At the end of 15 months, he tested the never-washed jeans found that bacteria levels were the same as on any other jeans he sampled.

World’s Dumbest Non-Televised Bachelor - Last Saturday at around 3:20 a.m., an unidentified Canadian bachelor on Vancouver Island called police to complain that there was a naked woman in his bed. He told the cops that she entered his bedroom, disrobed, slid into bed next to him and fell asleep. Police arrived to find her still asleep and "quite intoxicated." She was taken into custody to sober up but not charged. Turned out she lived in the same building on another floor, she'd entered the wrong apartment, and for some unexplained reason, her key also fit the bachelor's door.

* He still hasn't changed the lock.

* An American bachelor wouldn't have called the cops; he just would've said, "Thank you, Jesus!"

* For most bachelors, having a drunken, naked woman just show up in your bed would be the greatest thing since Domino's invented home pizza delivery.

* I'm betting this is a "longtime, confirmed" bachelor.

Pee Hard
- Japan leads the world in advanced toilet technology that even washes and perfumes your rear end. But now, they've taken it a step further by introducing urinal games. They're testing four games at pubs and arcades. All involve a pressure sensor to detect the urine so the player can control the game. They include "Splashing Battle," which lets men compete with the last user in stream strength; "Graffiti Eraser," which lets men move their urine stream to erase digital graffiti from a video screen; and what is likely to prove most popular, "The North Wind And The Sun And Me," in which the strength of the man's urine stream determines how high a virtual girl's skirt gets blown up by a digital wind.

* That one has really boosted beer sales.

* It teaches guys that nothing makes a woman lift her skirt like a guy with a strong urine stream.

* The fourth game is called "Shy Kidney"...The winner is the guy who stands there the longest.

* They held a tournament of champions, but the winner was disqualified for doping after he tested positive for Flomax.

* One question: These are played in the bathroom, right?

They Threw Themselves On The Barbies -
Australia has suffered devastating floods, but not everyone takes them seriously. Rescue workers had to scramble after a woman and man, both 19, tried to float down the flood-swollen Yarra River on two inflatable sex dolls. The woman ran into rough waters and lost hers, and the man stayed with her, the two of them clinging to a tree and his sex doll until help arrived. A police spokesman called their actions "stupid" and said blow-up sex dolls are "not recognized flotation devices." He added that the couple was fine, but "the fate of the inflatable dolls is unknown."

* Obviously, they're screwed.

* Somewhere down river, a lonely Australian lost his shack but found a sex doll, and called it even.

* It's a good thing for the woman that the man didn't have to choose which one to save.

* A sex doll is not a flotation device...A man might stay up for a few minutes, but after that, it deflates pretty quickly.

He predicted it would be the 21st century "Phantom of the Opera" and said it would be worth donating a kidney to get a ticket.

But he wasn't harmed because the knife struck his wallet in his breast pocket. It was stuffed with 20 plastic credit, debit and video rental cards, and the blade couldn't penetrate it. A police spokesman said he'd be dead if he didn't have so many cards. He added that everyone at the police station checked their own wallets, and nobody had 20 plastic cards.

They asked volunteers to rate 51 Scottish Caucasian faces and found that those who'd been eating carrots and similar foods had a yellowish glow that made them seem healthier and more attractive.

* This would explain why the hottest woman on TV right now is Snooki.

They pulled out of the endorsement deal shortly after its launch, when the Connecticut Attorney General opened an investigation into claims that the card carried "outrageous" fees. Actually, they were similar to those of other prepaid cards. But the Kardashians said they'd worked "extremely long and hard " to create a positive public image that appeals to all ages and didn't want negative publicity. So they won't like this: the company that issued the card just filed suit against them for $75 million for breach of contract.

Worth Every Penny - In a victory for bare butts, a federal appeals court ruled that ABC does not have to pay a $1.2 million fine leveled by the FCC for showing curvaceous blonde Charlotte Ross's nude backside on a 2003 episode of "NYPD Blue" titled "Nude Awakenings." In the scene, Ross is about to shower when her boyfriend's young son walks in on her, and she's shown nude from behind, the side and the front, but with her hands covering her breasts and crotch. The ruling was decried by the FCC and the Parents Television Council, which said the 7-second scene was "intended to pander and titillate." But ABC said it was not indecent and was protected by the First Amendment.

* The Second Amendment gives you the right to bear arms, and the First gives you the right to bare ass.

* The PTC is right: you could almost see her titillates.

* They were never fined before, but that's because nobody found Dennis Franz's bare butt to be titillating.

* A TV show that panders and titillates?! This trend must be nipped in the bud!!

They say school officials told them they were guilty of trying to "maliciously maim students with the intent to injure" and that the candy canes are weapons "because you can sharpen them with your mouth and stab people with them," although nobody actually did that. One boy's mom says an administrator told her, "Not everyone wants Christmas cheer, that suicide rates are up over Christmas, and that they should keep their cheer to themselves."

Urine Trouble Now - Raymond Hartley Jr. of Northampton County, Pennsylvania, was caught using a Whizzinator prosthetic penis to take a court-ordered drug test while he was on probation for burglary. But Hartley told the judge that he "didn't do this to trick anybody," and that the drug-free urine in the device was his own. He claimed he used the fake penis because he felt emasculated after probation officials who monitored his previous tests made fun of the size of his real penis, and he only did it to avoid ridicule. He said, "This is not comfortable for me to talk about." The judge didn't buy it and ordered him back to prison.

* But it's absolutely true! He does have a tiny penis, and it's not comfortable for him to talk about it!

* The judge did note for the record that the defendant's penis was laughably small.

* I'm inclined to believe him because most men would rather go to prison than admit that in public.

* If he thought the drug tests were humiliating, he's going to love the prison showers.

They're Obviously Adults - Wet T-shirt contests finally have an outspoken defender in politics. In Australia, liberal officials denounced the wet T-shirt contest at the Kimberly Pub in Broome as demeaning to women and said it cast them as sex objects. But Senator Glenn Sterle, who was a truck driver for 10 years before going into politics, is standing up for wet T-shirts. Pointing to the big crowd it drew and the overwhelming online support, Sterle said it's obvious politicians are out of step with the public. Sterle said the contestants are adults, and if people want to pay to see it, "why not?" In fact, he vowed to attend the next time he's there. He said, "People who say it demeans women, get your feet back on the ground," and that condemning a "bit of fun...paints all politicians as stale bottles of milk."

* It's an odd expression, but for some reason, he was thinking of bottles and milk.

* The term "wet blankets" might have been more appropriate.

* This should give his approval rating a big bounce.

* So feminists think it's demeaning for women to show their boobs in public, but if you ask a woman not to breastfeed in a restaurant, they'll have you arrested.

Plus A B.S. In B.S. - The business networking website LinkedIn.com surveyed over 85 million member profiles from a dozen countries to compile the top 10 most overused clichés people use to describe themselves. If you want to stand out to employers and land a job, they suggest you avoid putting them on your resume. That means you should not claim to be an Innovative, motivated, results-oriented team player with extensive experience, or a fast-paced, dynamic, entrepreneurial problem-solver with a proven track record.

* Even if you are one...They'll never believe you.

* Especially don't say that if you're applying for a job as a resume writer.

* Or if you do say this, at least leave out "innovative."

* Be honest and tell them you're a lazy, dim-witted, process-oriented clock-watcher with unrelated experience and an extensive criminal record.

Hardened Criminals - Baker Vince Bowen of Wigan, England, was delivering a load of pies to the World Pie Eating Championships when someone stole them from his van along the way. Bowen uses an unusual preservative to keep the potatoes firm: small amounts of Viagra. So whoever stole them got a load of Viagra pies. Contest organizer Tony Callaghan called it "a right cock-up."

* Way up, in fact.

* It should be easy enough to pick them out of the police lineup.

* These were shepherd's pies, so whoever ate them will get aroused around sheep.

Take Two! - Oprah was filming her show in Australia when Hugh Jackman thrilled the audience by sliding 100 yards on a zipwire from the top of the Sydney Opera House to the stage below. Unfortunately, he hit the brake too late; crashed into a lighting rig, cutting his eye; flipped 90 degrees; and hung over the stage for several seconds before descending to the stage. Oprah stopped the show while paramedics put an ice bag on his eye. Jackman said, "That was so much fun until the end."

* To prove she's not a lesbian, Oprah declared having Hugh Jackman dangle over her to be one of Oprah's Favorite Things.

* Oprah was able to do it just fine.

* If he has to wear an eye patch, he'll have no depth perception...Not that he had any before.

* Was it really an accident, or was he trying to land a role in the new "Spider-Man" musical?

Makes Thousand-Year-Old Eggs Look Fresh - Archeologists digging near the ancient Chinese capital of Xian believe they have discovered a 2,400-year-old pot of soup. It's some liquid and bones that were sealed in a small, bronze vessel inside a tomb. It had turned green from oxidation, but they believe it's the earliest discovery of bone soup in Chinese history. They say this will help them understand more about the eating habits of people from 475 to 220 B.C.

* It also explains why that was known as "The Rolaid Dynasty."

* This is also believed to be the oldest known example of Chinese take-out.

* This was the very first sample of "Chicken Soup for the Soul."

* The oldest soup ever found in America was the soup du jour at a Newark Denny's.

Two would-be robbers burst in, and one in a black ninja outfit demanded money and threatened him with an arm-length machete. Video cameras captured Patel calmly stirring his coffee, then setting it down, picking up a feather duster by the feather end, holding it like a sword with the handle up, and beating back the machete as he called 911. The ninja robber panicked and fled.

* Maybe he was allergic.

* It was quite a dust-up.

* To be fair, he did use the pointy handle end.

* When I saw that video, you could've knocked me over with a feather.

* Well, he also had that boiling hot cup of convenience store coffee for back-up.

John Dough - The city of Dortmund, Germany, has come up with a novel way to help pay off its $133 million deficit: they're taxing sex. Officials passed a "pleasure tax" that requires prostitutes to buy a 6 euro ($7.94 US) "day ticket" for every day they work. They estimate it will bring in 750,000 euros a year. There was an alternative proposal to charge a 1 or 2 euro fee to anyone who entered the red light district looking for a prostitute, but that idea got little political support.

* That's because the politicians would be paying for that themselves.

* So once again, prostitutes get screwed.

* For government officials, there is no greater pleasure than raising taxes.

* The politicians figured it was only fair for them to tax the prostitutes' business since the prostitutes had taxed their business so many times.

* It's like Disneyland: one ticket is good for a whole day's worth of rides.

"Disney's Lawyers On Line 2" - The Chinese publisher Beijing Mediatime was left red-faced and apologizing over a new collection of Grimm's fairy tales. They wanted to bring out a version in Chinese, but they couldn't find the original German version to translate, so they used a Japanese copy. They didn't realize it was a book of erotic fairy tale parodies, with twists like Snow White having an orgy with the Seven Dwarfs. The publisher yanked the book after getting complaints from parents. A spokesman explained that they don't read Japanese so they trusted the translator, who was a post-graduate student.

* Hey, don't blame him: he translated it perfectly.

* In this version, Snow White starts out feeling Bashful, and ends up feeling Sleepy.

* That's nothing; their last book of fairy tales turned out to be gay porn.

* In this book, somebody puts Rohypnol in Sleeping Beauty's Rum and Coke.

 * You can tell they're fairy tales and not fables because they have no morals.

* Luckily, most Chinese children are too busy making sneakers to read fairy tales.

Unemployment Drives People Insane - Douglas Allen Smith, an unemployed cabinet installer from Eugene, Oregon, was amused by the TV show "Chuck" when a character's dad named him "Captain Awesome" because "a poor nickname builds good character." So he decided to test that theory by legally changing his own name to "Captain Awesome." He was actually able to convince a skeptical judge to agree, and to let him sign his name as a right arrow, a smiley face and a left arrow. But he still can't get his bank to accept that signature because it's too easy to forge.

* It might actually be the work of "Captain Identity Theft!"

* It is pretty awesome, though.

* If he were really all that awesome, he'd be able to convince them.

Angry People Bite His Head Off - Saturday was National Cookie Day, and in honor of that, Dunkin Donuts surveyed customers and discovered you could tell something about people's personalities by how they eat gingerbread men. Nearly two-thirds eat the head first, which Alan Hirsch, director of the Smell & Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago, says indicates that they are achievement oriented and won't take no for an answer. He said skeptics usually eat the right hand first, creative people eat the left arm, and sensitive people eat the legs.

* If they're that sensitive, how can they eat gingerbread men at all?

* Paris Hilton goes straight for the crotch.

* Fat people eat the entire thing in one bite.

* Realists complain that the gingerbread man isn't anatomically correct.

* Sociopaths grind the gingerbread man into crumbs and then blow up his gingerbread house.

Murphy said, "There's nothing more depressing than a high schooler with a bald spot."

* Unless it's the ones on "Beverly Hills 90210" who were battling Alzheimer's.

* They could just get Botox...Real teenagers do that now.

They say it's a comment on how sex is used to sell everything these days, and that they got permission from a subsidiary of Mattel. But Mattel says they had nothing to do with it and they'll take legal action to prevent Barbie from being portrayed in that way.

* Are they sure the other doll is a naked lesbian and not just Ken?

In his novel, "The Shape of Her," he compares a couple's lovemaking to a "lepidopterist mounting a tough-skinned insect." Somerville, who was born in Britain, accepted the award in good humor, saying that "there is nothing more English than bad sex."

* Aside from bad sex with tea afterward.

* Hey, as they say, "Write what you know."

* So he's saying that English sex is like trying to stick a tiny, needle-like object into a female with a hard exterior shell?

Jimmy Choos Blues - A survey of 4,000 women by the makers of Insolia shoe inserts found that when the average woman wears a new pair of shoes, she can stand them for only 34 minutes before her feet start to hurt too much to take it. Four in ten take a spare pair of old shoes to change into because they know the new shoes will torture them, more than half have taken new shoes off and walked home barefoot, and one in ten have just abandoned their shoes altogether or borrowed someone else's. But about half of women say they own a pair of killer heels that are so great looking, they wear them despite the pain.

* Luckily, they're red, so you don't notice the blood so much.

* This is another reason why the cast of "Sex & The City" need Botox.

* They torture their feet to look attractive to men, who never look lower than their chests.

All contestants must have had cosmetic surgery, such as breast or buttock implants or nose jobs, and provide doctor's records to prove it. They'll be judged by one panel on their beauty, and by a medical panel on the quality of their surgery. The winner advances to face off against international contestants for the title of Miss Plastic Universe.

* I'm betting that takes place in Vegas.

* Which is exactly like the regular Miss Universe.

* Don't get your hopes up, Hungary; Miss Venezuela always wins that one.

* It's called a "face-off" because some contestants' faces actually do fall off occasionally.

* The plastic surgeons in Hungary are top-notch...They all trained on the Gabor Sisters.

Instead, what came out was, "We need more Canadian sex stories." It got a roar of laughter, as did his fumbling attempts to correct it. Clement later insisted that he had not been thinking of sex at the time, and that he didn't know why he said that. He said, "The male brain is a very strange organ at times, isn't it?"

* Except instead of "brain," he said "penis."

* The brain isn't the male organ he was thinking with at the time.

* Maybe this is why Obama takes his TelePrompter everywhere.

* Canada doesn't have many good sex stories because most of the nation is frigid.

It's 200 Shiloh Jolie-Pitts! - The New York Times reports that the art of PhotoShopping that makes models in fashion magazine photos look unrealistically perfect has now reached the lowest level of bad portraiture: school yearbook photos. One company says about 10 percent of all school photos are now altered, with charges starting at $6 to remove eyeglass glare, rising to $20 for whitening teeth or removing cowlicks, and going higher for more elaborate fixes with virtually no limit. They say they've digitally removed a scab from a boy's face, filled in missing teeth, and even fixed the haircut a five-year-old gave herself. But child psychiatrists disagree on whether this is saving children from the trauma of a bad yearbook photo or sending kids a negative message that it's not okay to look the way they really do.

* Too late to avoid that!...Their classmates already delivered that message, hence the facial scabs and missing teeth.

* No problem: once they're 16, their parents will get them plastic surgery so they look like their old school photos.

* With PhotoShop, they can give your kid a $400 designer haircut that looks like it was done by a blind five-year-old.

* It's about time all the sixth-grade girls had cleavage!

* If they could PhotoShop yearbook pictures retroactively, the entire decade of the 1970s would disappear.

Eat Lead! - The North Brookfield School District in Massachusetts says that a sixth-grade teacher did not have authorization to write a memo banning students from carrying pencils. The memo said pencils would be provided in class and any students caught carrying pencils or pens to or from school would face disciplinary action for having materials "to build weapons." The superintendent said there is no such ban, and they would never use the word "weapon" to describe pens and pencils.

* Unless you use them to write a poison pen letter.

* Unless you sharpen the pencil, and then it's a felony.

* They know the difference between a pencil and a weapon...They're not the TSA.

* Writing implements can be deadly in the wrong hands, like the hands of that woman who writes "Twilight" novels.

* They should've known the school officials didn't write that memo because "disciplinary" was spelled correctly.

Easley denied it and hired defense attorney "Cowboy Bob" Clark, who told WPMI-TV, "You can get a ham sandwich and indict it, but that don't mean the ham sandwich was guilty of anything, except being a bad ham sandwich." Police found Easley's wallet in the horse's stable, but Easley claims he lost that while trying to help an injured deer.

* By having sex with it.

* It wasn't technically an "injury" so much as a problem with intimacy.

* That wasn't a deer, it was a horse that he called "Dear."

Men Just Fight Or Run Away - Women who are always nagging men that they're harming their health by not sharing their feelings won't feel too happy about a new study by Oklahoma State University researcher Jennifer Byrd-Craven. She found that compassionate conversation about your problems can relieve stress, but "too much of a good thing is a bad thing." Women who talk at length and dwell on each other's problems show a spike in the stress hormone cortisol and increased activity in the "fight or flight" response part of the nervous system. She says excessive ruminating on problems can lead to chronic stress, which is linked to high blood pressure, lower immune response and increased abdominal fat.

* It's a vicious circle because the main thing women obsess on with each other is their increased abdominal fat.

* Men never talk about their feelings, so they have none of those problems.

* Women are going to be so worried about this study, they'll yak about it with their friends for weeks.

* So listening to women talk about their feelings makes your blood pressure go up? Any man could've told her that.

He fled on foot and was later spotted carrying a bouquet of flowers and arrested for assault with a deadly weapon.

Why The Comedy Wire Is Written Overnight - A study by the London School of Economics suggests that people who are night owls are smarter. Researchers say that being oriented toward "eveningness" is an "evolutionarily novel preference" made by people with "a higher level of cognitive complexity." People with lower IQs tend to restrict their activities primarily to daytime. They warned that sleep preferences are about 50 percent genetic, so it's not a good idea for a day person to try to become smarter by staying up all night.

* Unless you're reading.

* That's what Lindsay Lohan did instead of going to college.

* This also explains why Congress meets from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

* People with lower I.Q.'s also tend to restrict themselves to daytime TV.

* A smart dayperson is one who doesn't shout, "Doncha just love morning?!" at a night person.

Don't Even Think About It! - Italy's highest appeals court, the Cassation Court in Rome, has upheld a lower court's awarding of an annulment to a man because his wife "theorized" about having an affair. The couple told judges that she had "theorized" about the possibility that sexual fidelity wasn't necessary to marriage, but never actually did anything. Still, the court granted her husband an annulment with no support payments just because she'd thought about being unfaithful. She'd wanted it converted to a divorce with alimony, but the appeals court refused.

* He doesn't object to paying her alimony...in THEORY...

* The moral here is that you should never, ever tell your spouse what you're thinking.

* Now she could get life in prison for what she's thinking about doing to her ex-husband.

* She's lucky: if a husband theorized to his Italian wife about having an affair, he'd get the death penalty.

Le Petite Mort - The Polish coffin maker Linder is using its calendars to bring some sexiness back to death. For the second year in a row, they've photographed hot models in lingerie posing next to their coffins. A Catholic Church spokesman said it isn't sexy, it's tasteless, shocking and disturbing. But Linder says they sold 3,000 sexy coffin calendars last year and expect to sell more this year. The 2011 calendar goes even farther, with scenes inspired by movies like "Reservoir Dogs," "The Godfather" and 007 films, such as a model in a lacy thong forcing a man into a coffin at gunpoint.

* He'll lie down in the coffin, but good luck getting the lid closed.

* These models are so hot, they make even live guys stiff.

* These women give new meaning to the term "drop-dead gorgeous."

* This answers the question, "How many Polish models in thongs does it take to make a man lie down in a coffin? One."

NOTE! Seriously, how many other radio comedy services would use that subhead? Google it if you must.
