time White House staffers were<br />

not surprised and noted that due to<br />

a contract signed by then<br />

President, notoriously stingy<br />

Harry Truman decades ago, facilities<br />

at The White House are routinely<br />

stocked with a cheaply manufactured,<br />

extremely coarse and<br />

somewhat less than absorbent<br />

brand of paper, forcing both<br />

Republican and Democratic chief<br />

executives alike to employ alternative<br />

means of relief upon finishing<br />

the business of the people. In<br />

fact, previous President George W.<br />

Bush is known to have kept multiple<br />

copies of The Constitution on<br />

hand for just that purpose, a practice<br />

borrowed from The Nixon<br />

administration.<br />

The Secret Service detail posted<br />

outside the door, unable to monitor<br />

The President’s movements<br />

over the sound of running water,<br />

were understandably nervous and<br />

all breathed a sigh of relief when<br />

the senior agent on the scene finally<br />

spoke into his jacket sleeve proclaiming,<br />

”The Eagle has landed.”<br />

Though while hardly the first time<br />

in recent memory that a president<br />

has made headlines with his pants<br />

down, most agree that presidential<br />

bodily functions and fluids will be<br />

viewed in a light from here on. A<br />

beaming Rev. Al Sharpton when<br />

asked to comment on “The Dump<br />

Heard ‘Round the World” stated<br />

”At last a time has finally come in<br />

America when anyone, regardless<br />

of color, can ascend to the highest<br />

throne in the land and occupy a<br />

true seat of power, an incredibly<br />

historic day which should make all<br />

Americans flush with pride.”<br />

Others, however, are critical of<br />

what they see as “an over emphasis<br />

on the historic significance of a<br />

relatively mundane daily event.”<br />

One detractor, James ”Big Jim”<br />

Oakey Schmidt, regional director<br />

of The Coalition of Suburban<br />

White Christian Oil and Gas<br />

Executives- a racial separatist<br />

group- in an interview aired on the<br />

local cable access program “It’s 4<br />

A M Chicago” said ”This is exactly<br />

the kind of shit we’ve been<br />

afraid of from day one and<br />

amounts to nothing more than a<br />

big load of crap!”<br />

In a related item, The Tom Bosley<br />

Mint has announced that it will<br />

issue a limited addition commemorative<br />

coin marking the event<br />

featuring Abraham Lincoln’s outhouse<br />

on one side, a thumbs up<br />

relief of Obama on the other and<br />

bearing the legend ”We All Gotta<br />

Go Sometime.”<br />

BUZZLINGS<br />

THE MIRACLE ON<br />

THE HUDSON<br />

is beginning to look a lot more<br />

like flashback than miracle as <strong>new</strong><br />

details emerge involving an incident<br />

which was originally deemed<br />

a jet collision with a flock of birds<br />

but may have actually been a near<br />

miss with the British pop group<br />

Flock of Seagulls. Apparently a<br />

snippet from the bands’ 1982 hit “I<br />

Ran” was intercepted over<br />

U.S.airways flight 1549s cockpit<br />

radio just upon take off which<br />

caused an irresistible urge in pilot<br />

Chesley ”Sully” Sullenberger to<br />

nosedive the fully loaded Airbus<br />

A320 with 155 people on board<br />

into the ground. It was only<br />

through sheer determination to<br />

fight the urge and years of training<br />

and experience that Sullenberger<br />

was able to pull up at the last<br />

minute and execute the emergency<br />

landing on The Hudson River saving<br />

countless lives.<br />

NTSB spokesman, Archibald<br />

Crackers, later noted that encounters<br />

with defunct one-hit wonders<br />

are fairly common in commercial<br />

aviation and stated, ”As long as<br />

crappy 80’s bands are out there,<br />

we always run the risk of this kind<br />

of situation.” He added “We can<br />

only be thankful that this occur-<br />

rence did not involve, say, Soft<br />

Cells’ Tainted Love or anything by<br />

Cyndi Lauper. The results would<br />

have surely been catastrophic.”<br />

THE FLIGHT OF<br />

THE SNEAKER<br />

Back in December an irate Iraqi<br />

journalist made international <strong>new</strong>s<br />

by throwing his shoes at a surprisingly<br />

agile President George W<br />

Bush in protest of the outgoing<br />

leaders mid-east policies during a<br />

press conference in Baghdad. A<br />

second recent incident at<br />

Cambridge University in Great<br />

Britain involving Chinese Premier<br />

Wen Jlabao and a shoe armed protester<br />

has prompted sneaker giant<br />

Nike to begin work on a line of<br />

footwear aerodynamically<br />

designed for maximum flight<br />

potential which will be called “Air<br />

George” and marketed under the<br />

slogan “Just Throw It” Competitor<br />

Reebok is said to be thinking<br />

along similar lines with their “It’s<br />

Not a Shoe-It’s a Statement” prototype.<br />

FROM THE<br />

WHERE ARE<br />

THEY NOW FILE<br />

Al Queda chief Osama Bin Laden<br />

is rumored to have consulted with<br />

several Middle Eastern P.R. firms<br />

in an effort to update his image<br />

and make himself more <strong>new</strong>s worthy.<br />

Word has it that the terrorist<br />

king pin has exchanged his turban<br />

for a dew-rag, his trusty AK-47 for<br />

Tech-9 and will operate under the<br />

name of Osama Bin Hangin With<br />

Da Crips. Though a self-described<br />

“old-madrasa“ type terrorist he<br />

no<strong>net</strong>heless feels the need to modernize<br />

his profile. In response,<br />

Homeland Security has elevated<br />

the terrorist threat level to gold<br />

and black.<br />

AND FINALLY<br />

Not to be outdone by The White<br />

Sox who will be issuing a special<br />

edition cap in honor of Sox Fanin-Chief,<br />

President Barack<br />

Obama, The Cubs will, in turn,<br />

offer fans a commemorative jersey<br />

featuring blue prison pin-stripes<br />

and a much longer number than<br />

usual in tribute to uber-Cubs fan<br />

Rod Blagojevich. Play Ball!!!<br />
