 BOGUS RUMORS


RUMSFELD UNVEILS DOLE IMPERSONATION, COMEDY ROUTINE (BR)

Donald Rumsfeld became so irritated by questions yesterday that he began to do a Bob Dole impersonation for no apparent reason, then when asked about the lack of viable law enforcement presence in Iraq, said, "We have a team...an A-team in the works... a team which was found guilty for a crime that it didn't commit... they've been working underground against Columbian druglords and Russians and it's time to bring them back in the fold... they have a zero-casualty record and we need that... can I hear one for Peck? Lt. Templeton? Face?!" Rumsfeld continued to exhort the press until one confused reporter in the back finally gave Lt. Templeton "Face" Peck a "shout out".

REAL WORLD MEMBER 'JIM' TO DOCUMENT EXPERIENCE (BR)

MTV's newest The Real World, it's long running reality series, will be taping in Phoenix this summer. One new star, Jim, will bring along a film crew to record his stay in the house for a documentary. "I just thought it would be interesting, " he said, "because nobody has really seen anything like that before, what's it like to live in the Real World house, or what it's like to be on TV all the time."


MAN TOO NERVOUS TO FINISH HOOTERS LUNCH (BR)

A man became nervous ordering his lunch last Thursday at a Hooters restaurant and asked for something he didn't really want. Furthermore, he could only finish two bites of the sandwich after it was brought to him. When asked by the waitress if anything was wrong with his food he stuttered, "No. No. Thank you." He believes the incident can be traced back to junior high, where he first became nervous when talking to an early developing female classmate. He went to Burger King after leaving the establishment.

'PROFESSOR BOTCHULISM' IN CUSTODY (BR)

Ari Fleischer announced the capture yesterday of Iraqi scientist Adful-Quamas Jazam, coined "Professor Botchulism" immediately after his capture. Fleischer pointed out that "this government represents the majority, and not just racially, but intellectually, too. Most people are fans of Raw Deal and Con Air." He then looked at a camera before saying, "Make no mistake about it, Al-Kamar-Jazirus The Virus, America's gonna save the day, and you're next."

This album was delayed for many years. There is still one month before it's released. That's one month left to spare us all and put it back on the shelf.

 MY MONKEY OF THE WEEK


THE SIERRA MIST MONKEYS


My name is Kevin Shaughnessy, and I love monkeys. The fun-loving monkeys in a recent ad for Sierra Mist soda are Patas monkeys of the Erythrocebus genus. While they do love fun (and eating grubs) it is unlikely they would now how to build a catapult device. Furthermore, if they did know how, I doubt they would launch themselves into a cold lake. In their native desert habitat, they have shown a severe dislike for flying. Also, in the late 50's, a group of zoo Patas monkeys, usally known for their passive nature, got free from their cages and attacked the polar bears. My name is Kevin Shaughnessy, and I love monkeys.
