Impersonating a Pinto
Conservatives in Texas are so upset with big government, they’re protesting by not filling out their census forms. This includes former president George W. Bush, who says he wants to keep the government out of his Secret Service protection.
President Barack Obama had to sneak in and out of Afghanistan just like George W. Bush used to sneak in and out of Iraq. All of a sudden, Bill Clinton sneaking in and out of the White House to visit his girlfriends doesn’t look so bad after all.
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham is calling the health care reform bill a Ponzi scheme. And if anybody knows Ponzi schemes, it’s the party that got rid of the regulations that allowed Bernie Madoff to run his for so long.
Archaeologists in Egypt have uncovered a 3,500-year-old door to the afterlife from the tomb of a high-ranking Egyptian official near Karnak temple in Luxor. They know it’s the door to the afterlife because it’s guarded by a statue that looks just like Pat Robertson.
The Republican National Committee is scrambling to explain why Chairman Michael Steele spent almost $2,000 at Voyeur West Hollywood, a bondage-themed nightclub featuring topless women dancers imitating lesbian sex. One dancer knew he was a Republican because he kept calling her “Killer Baby.”
Police in Germany say 67 sheep died when a pair of dogs chased them into the path of a freight train. A reporter who saw the sheep massacre cried out in his broadcast, “Oh, the ewe-manity!”
“24” may be cancelled but a movie version is in the works. The producers are doing it as a favor to Liz Cheney who says it’s the only thing her father has left to live for.
A state senator in New York has put up billboards telling young men to pull their pants up. Seems like the wrong place to display the message since guys with their pants on the ground are usually looking down so they don’t trip.
Illinois lawmakers voted to deny former Gov. Rod Blagojevich money for an official portrait in the Statehouse. It’s not because they don’t like Blagojevich. It’s because they’d have to raise the ceiling of the statehouse to make room for a painting big enough to show his hair.
Police in England arrested a man who created an anti-tailgating flame-throwing device for his scooter. He was charged with possessing an object converted into a firearm and impersonating a Pinto.

This Can’t Last
India’s military is putting the world’s hottest chili in tear gas-style hand grenades to immobilize suspected terrorists. When tossed into a cave with a conventional hand grenade, the end result is “chili con carnage.”

Teach them fractions using nothing but fifths
Glen Oaks Community College in Michigan cooked up 327 pounds of beef chuck to break the record for the world's largest meatball. The world’s second-largest meatball still hosts a daily radio show for dittoheads.
Newsweek’s Russia editor was caught naked on tape with what is said to be cocaine and hookers. His management tried to put a positive spin on it by saying at least he wasn’t caught naked in the bathroom reading TIME.
Jerry Springer is the new host of a dating game called “Baggage.” He must not be planning to invite people who’ve appeared on The Jerry Springer Show, because then it would have to be called “Brown Paper Baggage.”
Contestants on a British game show who were given were given the opportunity to spell out a profanity for points decided not to “in the name of decency.” I think the show is called “More Ways We’re Superior To Americans.”

Jehovah’s Winstonless
After Liz Cheney called Department of Justice attorneys terrorist sympathizers for defending Gitmo detainees, a conservative blogger compared her to Joseph McCarthy. If she’s cold, stiff and manipulated by her father, wouldn’t she be more like Charlie McCarthy?
Two New York City police officers are charged with robbing about $1 million of perfume from a New Jersey warehouse. The perfume caper is already being worked into a new cop show called “Law and Order: Smelly Victims Unit.”
A group of U.S. doctors says it wants to replace the popular food pyramid with a Power Plate because “People eat from plates, not pyramids.” This is bad news for restaurants in Egypt because they make a fortune off of American tourists who get hungry on pyramid tours.
Twitter reached its 10 billionth tweet this week. The site was then swamped with 10 billion more tweets asking, “Was it me?”
Three quarters of the British actors surveyed say London’s theaters have a severe rat problem. It’s so bad, the most popular play in production is now called “Vermin of the Opera.”

Small, medium and Alexander
Sarah Palin is in L.A. with the creator of “Survivor” to pitch a reality show about Alaska. She’d have better luck with a game show called “Are You Smarter Than A Former Governor of Alaska?”
A kosher supermarket in the Baltimore area will become the largest in the U.S when it moves into the site of a former Safeway store. If you get lost in it, don’t ask for directions from any store clerk named Moses.
A company has developed a device called the “Porn Detection Stick” that will search the images on your computer and produce a report of suspected pornography. If you can’t afford $98.95, you can get the same report just by letting your wife use your PC.
A New Zealand inventor built a 60-miles-an-hour hovercraft out of parts from his barbecue, his daughter's scooter, and his wife’s car. He got the idea when he put too much lighter fluid on his barbecue that was in between his daughter’s scooter and his wife’s car.
A pilot suspected of flying with a fake license for more than a decade was arrested in the Netherlands shortly before he was scheduled to depart on a flight carrying 101 passengers. Luckily for the passengers, it was “Take you child to work day” at the airport and his 8-year-old son took over the controls.
More than 250 silver coins dating back to the time of Alexander the Great were discovered by an archeologist in northern Syria. They were found inside an early vending machine offering coffee in three sizes: small, medium and Alexander.
Scientists at Cornell say they've discovered a protein that disrupts a mosquito’s ability to urinate. It won’t kill the mosquito but it keeps them up all night so they’re too tired to bite.
A toy company is marketing a product in England that allows dog owners to receive messages from their pets via Twitter. Dogs never use all 140 characters since their most popular message is “P!”
A New York woman is suing a wig store claiming that a falling mannequin head injured her foot and her husband is suing the same store claiming the injury ruined his sex life. I don’t know what she did with her foot, but I can see why he’s probably having a hard time doing it himself.
Warner Bros. studio is working on a movie adaptation of the 1960s television sit-com “Gilligan's Island” that will be set in the present day. The writers are waiting to see who gets cast as Ginger and Maryanne before deciding whether Gilligan wants to be rescued or not.
Despite the fact that a Kentucky psychiatrist is in jail charged with stabbing a female patient with a sword, some of his other patients keep showing up trying to see him. They think the stabbing was a one-time thing, kind of a Freudian slit.

The Swiss government has approved extra small condoms for boys as young as 12 who are actually having sex at that age. They found out many of the boys were improvising by using shower caps from their sisters’ Barbie dolls.
In a recent speech, General David Petraeus bragged that U.S. forces in Afghanistan have killed “boatloads of bad guys.” If that’s true, how come we never hear anything about the Taliban navy?

Captain Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, who piloted a US Airways flight during its emergency water landing on the Hudson River last year, is retiring. He didn’t say how he plans to spend his retirement, but I’m guessing it won’t be bird watching.
Authorities in El Paso County, Texas, say an escaped emu died in police custody after going on a rampage on an interstate and attacking deputies. They believe the emu died from shock after seeing its wings covered in barbecue sauce.

My casual Friday outfit
General Motors announced a recall of 1.3 million vehicles due to failing power steering motors. When the motor goes out, the steering gets difficult and causes the grandparent in the back seat to tell stories about driving the old Studebaker.
On a trip to Georgia, President Obama had a Southern-style lunch of fried chicken, beans, sweet potatoes, greens and macaroni and cheese. Apparently he’s trying to improve his basketball game by looking more like Charles Barkley.
The latest rumor is that Tiger Woods is out of therapy and back on the golf course. Witnesses say his swing is a little rusty and he still cringes every time he sees a female golfer with a club.
While at the NFL Scouting Combine, Oklahoma defensive tackle Gerald McCoy says someone asked him if he wore a g-string or a jock strap when he played. It must have been a scout from a semi-pro team in San Francisco called the T-Backs.
Figure skater Johnny Weir did a photo shoot for Vanity Fair magazine while covered with body paint and glitter. Or as he called it, “my casual Friday outfit.”
Bishops in France are upset about a confession hotline that claims to allow Catholics to be forgiven of minor sins over the phone. French Catholic men have started checking to see if their dates have the number on speed-dial.
The TV Land network has ordered 10 episodes of the original comedy series “Hot in Cleveland,” starring Valerie Bertinelli, Wendie Malick and Jane Leeves. It will start airing in June and Bertinelli’s fans are calling it the “feel fat hit of the summer.”
Pamela Anderson, astronaut Buzz Aldrin and pro football player Chad Ochocinco will be some of the contestants on the next season of “Dancing With The Stars.” Anderson’s partner could become the first male dancer to break something besides an arm or a leg.
Weather experts in Lajamanu, Australia, say the fish that rained down from the sky there for two days had probably been sucked up earlier by a thunderstorm. This refutes Pat Robertson’s theory that it’s a sign God doesn’t want people eating sushi.
A prison inmate in Florida won his second consecutive Corrections Idol competition. He got the votes of both the inmates who loved that he sounded like Adam Lambert and the ones who hated it but wanted him as a cellmate anyway.

Garth On Ice
Restaurants serving chicken wings say the increased demand has caused the price to increase, so some are replacing them with boneless chicken wings, which is just white meat in disguise. Kind of like African-American Republicans.
The Supreme Court has declined to get involved in a new dispute over a Ten Commandments display on public property. The judges don’t want to have to explain why their recent ruling on corporate donations to campaigns doesn’t break a bunch of them.
About 5,200 naked Australians posed on the steps of the Sydney Opera House for a photo shoot by Spencer Tunick. The cold caused so much shrinkage that the pile-on photo showed nothing but shrimps on the Barbies.

Police in Wales stopped a woman for flossing her teeth while driving 70 mph on a highway. They let her off since she was in a Toyota and could have used the floss to tie her foot to the brake pedal.
Tickets for 20 upcoming Garth Brooks concerts in Las Vegas were sold out within hours of becoming available. He’s so popular, many casinos are looking for overweight showgirls to compete with a “Garth On Ice” revue.
According to a new study, 26 percent of Americans get news on their cell phones. If this is you, invest in an app that asks you periodically if you really want to throw your expensive phone against the wall.
An Air Canada plane was taken out of service and the 205 passengers were deboarded after a rat was found on board. Then they had to wait until a crew from Wisconsin arrived with a special cheese-sniffing dog.
Pat Robertson is blaming the earthquake in Chile on the fact that the cartoon penguin Chilly Willy had a name that provokes impure thoughts.
I watched Jerry Seinfeld’s new show, “The Marriage Ref.” I’m hoping they find out the ref bet on the contest, arrest him and put this show out of its misery.
