We get letters…

Apparently, someone took offense to this post.

Here’s a recent email (original formatting preserved, email altered to protect the stupid):

if fox news is always wrong or using THE MEMO to guide their content,
why do they use AP reports on their website?           ANY
ATTEMPT TO SMEAR FOX NEWS IS NUTS. FIFTH COLUMNISTS WILL ALWAYS TRY TO
KEEP WACKO-LIBERAL VIEWS AS MAINSTREAM. THEY ARE WRONG. CALL IT WHAT IT
IS. LENINIST-MARXIST.

I don’t think anyone says Fox News is always wrong. It’s just they’re obviously not Fair and Balanced.

Oh No! I ate something featured in “Steve, Don’t Eat It!”

Steve, Don’t Eat It! – Silkworm Pupas:

High Protein – Great side dish when drinking alcohol.” I imagine this came from the silkworm marketing team when faced with the nagging question “Who the fuck’s gonna eat this?!” The answer: DRUNKS!

I actually sampled this “delicacy” on one of my extended business trips to Korea. Yes, I had a bit to drink that evening and I really didn’t know what the hell those things were (I later found out they were “bugs”). I have no real memory of how they tasted, but I’ve had no desire to sample them again.

Groan!

A German, a Pole and a Czech left camp for a hike through the woods. After being reported missing a day or two later, rangers found two bears, one a male, one a female, looking suspiciously overstuffed. They killed the female, autopsied her, and sure enough, found the German and the Pole.

“What do you think?” said the the first ranger.

“The Czech is in the male,” replied the second.

A man who could make so vile a pun would not scruple to pick a pocket.

A sad but true story

And by true, I mean completely false 🙂

(lifted from ThisBlogSucks.com)

Little Tommy was in the 4th grade class when the teacher asked the children what their fathers did for a living. All the typical answers came up fireman, policeman, salesman, etc…Tommy was being uncharacteristically quiet and so the teacher asked him about his father.

“My father’s an exotic dancer in a gay club and takes off all his clothes in front of other men. Sometimes, if the offer’s really good, he’ll go out to the alley with some guy and make love with him for money.”

The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement, hurriedly set the other children to work on some coloring, and took little Tommy aside to ask him, “Is that really true about your father?”

” No,” said Tommy, ” He plays for the Cubs, but I was too embarrassed to say so.”
