leave a comment »

obama_2After great consternation and many weeks of high level meetings, President Barack Obama has decided on a bold course of action as related to the concurrent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“Today I have decided to send forty-thousand Iraqis to Afghanistan to help fight that ongoing conflict. It’s a win-win for me, and for the American public. We end up with less Iraqis to fight and we give ourselves at least an outside chance of winning in war torn Afghanistan.”

big_ben_roethlisbergerSteelers QB “Big Ben” Roethlisberger was “totally stoked” when he heard that the NFL would be celebrating “Breast Awareness Month” by wearing pink ribbons, shoes and underwear.

“Now this is something I can totally get behind,” Said Big Ben, with a wink. “I mean, I’m not into the pink stuff, but if you’re talkin’ breasts, I’m your man!”

Sometime later the Steelers PR machine went into overdrive. “Ben simply left off the “cancer” part. It was an inadvertent error made prior to a game, when Ben was distracted by a cheerleader named Tiffany.”

leave a comment »

sonicA so-called “sonic weapon” has apparently been deployed in Pittsburgh, where the G20 Summit is underway today. The device is intended to disperse unruly crowds. There is, as of this moment, no clear report on whether it has been utilized or not.

“The weapon was developed for the Army over the past decade,” said former General Armand Zimmerman. “By sampling and then playing back certain songs are a very high frequency, most people will be repelled immediately.”

Reports on the web note that the Army experimented with a mash up of “You Light Up My Life,” “Ebony and Ivory,” “She’s a Lady,” “Achy Breaky Heart” and every Bobby Goldsboro song ever recorded.

“It was very successful. Not only did people run screaming, but most of them lost their lunch as well.”

G20 Protesters: Berating The Beans!

leave a comment »

beansProtesters at the G20 Summit in Pittsburgh ransacked a Boston Market restaurant on Thursday, breaking plate glass windows and raising havoc, but it apparently had nothing to do with the ills of globalizaton nor the use of genetically-modified crops.

“We were just pissed because the green beans sucked.” Said protest leader Simon Strauch. “We were marching down Baum Boulevard when we decided to grab some lunch. But, as vegans, we found the green beans to be overcooked, soggy and just saturated in too much salt. They were anything but the “fresh” vegetables which Boston Market likes to advertise.”

“And since we’re protesters,” Said Kim Docherty, “We did the only thing we know how to do; we trashed the place and broke all the windows.”
