Did you see the Oval Office picture of President Bush, President-elect Obama and former presidents Bush, Clinton and Carter? Obama appeared to be the only one who didn’t have his hands behind his back hiding the souvenirs he stole.
That’s the first time in eight years the average IQ in the Oval Office hit triple-digits.
Hustler publisher Larry Flynt and Joe Francis, the man behind the "Girls Gone Wild" videos, say the porn business is doing so bad that they’re going to Washington to ask for a $5 billion bailout. Capitol Hill is pretty upset at the move but that won’t stop Flynt and Francis since both are used to getting a rise out of members of Congress.
Samuel J. Wurzelbacher, better known as Joe The Plumber, is heading to Iraq to cover the war for a conservative Web site. He’ll be heavily guarded to protect him from Iraqis who haven’t had plumbing since the war started.
The word is out that former Australian prime minister John Howard is the person keeping the Obamas out of the Blair House until the inauguration.

An inspector found that Chicago Public Schools employees paid $67,000 for 30 cappuccino machines for a culinary arts program and only three have been used. That’s too bad because Chicago children need to stay awake in school, especially during government class.

President-elect Barack Obama named Nancy Killefer as his administration's chief performance officer, the watchdog for federal spending programs such as Social Security and Medicare. She must be tough … she beat out a pit bull wearing lipstick.

A male skier at a Vail, Colorado, resort spent about 15 minutes dangling upside down from a lift with his pants around his knees before he was rescued. Talk about a Seinfeld moment … the only thing that saved him from an embarrassing case of frostbite was shrinkage.
