DOJ Tells Employees to Verbally
Affirm Homosexuality – How often? Daily, every hour? How about just removing “Under God” from

Native American, Indian, Muslim, satan worshipers, and heterosexuals, with
liberty…”

Last week’s fake
headline was:
Scientist receives $100,000 Government Grant to determine
if chicken or egg came first – Next will be a
grant to determine why that chicken crossed the road.
The following bloggers successfully
guessed the fake headline:
TexWisGirl @ http://run-a-roundranch.blogspot.com/
She guesses it every week, I may have to disallow her entries. In the meantime check out her great photos…especially
if you love ducks.
Stephen @ http://chubbychatterbox.com/ guessed
correctly as he knew the Government would never pay for anything with any
substance at all…Dang Liberal! Go read
his stuff anyway; his stories are some of the best in the blog world!!
Val @ http://unbaggingthecats.blogspot.com/
Guessed correctly figuring that $100,000 was way too little for a Government
study. Do not read Val’s posts if
laughing makes your side hurt.
Leenie @ http://bonkersycarax.blogspot.com/
copied Val, but check out her posts anyway…very nice Photos
Marcy @ http://www.tootimidandsqueamish.com/
also guessed the French Tax thing, so she is disqualified for making two
guesses and will not get a mention. That
is too bad, because she is what is sometimes called “A piece of work” and her
posts are a good read. Sadly, do not
visit Marcy @ http://www.tootimidandsqueamish.com/
. Sorry, but rules are rules.
Fran @ http://fishducky.blogspot.com/ was
too busy arguing her previous weeks disqualification to venture a guess, so
Fran @ http://fishducky.blogspot.com/
will not get a mention…do not read Fran’s
very funny posts @ http://fishducky.blogspot.com/
Poop transplants? I guess they're for bulemics who just don't have it in them to work up a pill on their own?
ReplyDeleteS
Oh, and I think you're joshing with this one.
gosh, i'm gonna have to go with the poop transplants - at least i hope that's fake!
ReplyDeleteStrange as our world is, I think they're ALL true!!
ReplyDeleteHeh, heh! Your dolphin birth assistance comment tickled my funny bone.
ReplyDeleteDon't disqualify me, but I devoted a whole post to one of these stories. So I smugly acknowledge that I have narrowed my chances to 1 out of 13. Still...I am torn between the Ugly Baby, DOJ's Verbal Affirmations, and Marriage Counselors.
I'm going with DOJ's Affirmations as fake. Mainly because government entities set themselves up for ridicule on a regular basis.
I am too weak from laughing to even guess much less deduce which one is fake. And furthermore....I don't care. Let someone else win the prizes. Just please keep on doing what you are doing, Joe, my dear. You never cease to brighten my life......well, maybe once in a while not so much, but mostly. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteStill trying to wash, "Cuomo Flogs Weiner" out of my too-visual mind. It may be a permanent stain. Thanks for NOTHING, Cranky.
ReplyDeleteOddly enough, I came across about half of these on my own travels around teh interwebs. I won't give the game away by saying which ones, but at least it narrows my own choices by half. I'll go with the very first one, about the Burger King employee foiling a robbery. I hope I'm wrong. That would be SO awesome!
ReplyDeleteOMG all of those sound totally TRUE. I know the Burger King whopper holder is real cos I saw a picture of it! (Unless it was photoshopped).
ReplyDeleteLove the marriage counsellor one.
Um... ah... I'm crap at this! Crap... poo.. the poop one? No, let's see. Marriage counsellors, please.
ReplyDeleteThe marriage counsellor one, there's no way their success rate is that high ;P
ReplyDeletehahaha
