Guess You Don't Want To Hear About Meet The Feebles

The Jim Henson Company has created a series called Late Night Liars for The Game Show Network. It will feature two human contestants competing against "celebrity puppets," named Shelley Oceans, William A. Mummy, Cashmere Ramada and Sir Sebastian Simian, who enjoy cocktails and adult humor.

Must Hollywood destroy all of my most cherished childhood memories? Really? Every last one of them?

Hells Angels Is Other Lawyers

The Conservative government is coming under fire for appointing Jacques Leger, a former Conservative party president, to the Quebec Court of Appeal. His critics claim that Leger once represented a corrupt organization that was undermining the rule of law in a way that could seriously and permanently damage the country.

Oh, and he had once represented the Hells Angels, too.

COLE: Yushchenko has Lytvyn on his back, and -

LAWLER: Lytvyn breaks free before the ref calls three.

COLE: Now Lytvyn is climbing the ropes and - OH! A FLYING BODY SLAM KNOCKS YUSHCHENKO TO THE CANVAS!

If You Can Destroy It There...

An apparent failed car bomb caused police to evacuate New York's Times Square Saturday night, Broadway's busiest.

New Yorkers were, as always, sanguine about the bomb outside the theatres. "Are you kidding me?" Brroklynite Manfred Manucci stated. "This was nothing! Have you seen some of the bombs that have gone off inside the theatres!"

Looked More Alive, Too

Man, am I embarrassed. I went to visit my dad in the hospital the other day. He's 25 years older than I am and he had had triple bypass surgery four days before, and he still had more energy than I did!

Bastard.

To Have A Culture War, Don't You Have To Have A Culture?

Conservative Party President John Walsh responded harshly to EKOS Research President Frank Graves' comment that the Liberals should "invoke a culture war" in Canada.

"The first rule of culture war is: you don't talk about culture war," Walsh stated. "The second rule of culture war? You. Don't. Talk. About. Culture. War."

When asked how long the Conservatives have been waging their culture war, Walsh answered: "You want me to answer that in Parliaments or decades?"

We Could Tell You Some Of The Other Ways We're Transforming Your Personal Information, But We Do Not Want To Interfere With Your Wonder Of Discovery

Some of our Corporate Friends have wondered about mirrors of their Farcebook pages in languages that they do not read. In fact, we have recently started translating pages into languages that nobody reads. Our first experiment was with Coahuilteco, an extinct language that was spoken in Texas and northeastern Mexico. We have also used Negerhollands, Jassic and Tillamook. We thought that since future historians of the Internet were going to have to translate our languages into whatever they will be speaking, we might as well give them a challenge.

We have suspended the service until further notice.

May The Forced Commercial Good Will Be With You

May 4 is Star Wars day.





What do you mean, it really is? I made it up. There's no way tha - really?





And, it only took Star Wars fans 33 years to come up with that lame pun that they'll now be repeating forever?

You Know How Well The Withdrawal Method Works In Preventing Unwanted Pregnancies? It Works Almost As Well In Government

Now that Ontario Premier Dalton "Squinty" McGuinty has backed down on his pledge, the province's public school children will not be learning about sex in their classes. On the other hand, they are learning a hell of a lot about politics.

Stephen Freud Was Proud

Public Works Minister Rona Ambrose, looking more and more like Canada's answer to Michele Bachmann, sits in her office and wonders, "What do women want?"

Women standing on the lawn outside her office answer: "We want complete control over our own health, over our own bodies, including the right to terminate pregnancies if we have reason to do so."

Ambrose shakes her head, trying to get an annoying buzzing noise out of it. "No, seriously," she asks herself, "what do women want?"

"Equal pay for work of equal value!" the women outside her office window shout. "A workplace free of sexual harassment! Reproductive freedom!"

Ambrose sucks the end of a pencil. She is sure she could come up with a reasonable answer to the question of what women want if those voices would just shut the fuck up and give her a little peace and quiet. She just needs a little peace and -

Prime Minister Stephen Harper sticks his head into Ambrose's office and says: "Women want laws that keep rapists and murderers off the streets and make sure to protect children from sexual predators." Then, he quickly withdraws.

"Oh, yeah. That's it," Ambrose thinks to herself and, despite the howling coming from outside, sets out to write her speech.
