The Strangest Thing

Had one of those "Chicago Moments" where you're walking on the street and something strange happens. However, someone, a complete stranger, in your near proximity, also witnesses the event.

At that time, you and said stranger share the moment. There is a bond, forged by the bizarre happenings. It could be at a bazaar, but the main thing is that it's bizarre.

Which, incidentally, was a sketch comedy show on Showtime, back in the 80s. That's the one where they flashed boobs during the opening credits.

Oh, snap. I just wrote, "boobs", and can't get by that. I'll be in Stevo's bunk. Feel free to let creativity be your guide and finish this story. um, I gotta finish something else.

Mittwoch Brainteaser (!): Part To

A man enters an elevator. He gets off on 15 and walks up the stairs (10 flights) until he reaches his floor.

Unless it's raining. then he goes straight to 25.

True it's the height of summer in the northern hemisphere. However, that doesn't mean that we can't start training for ski season.

Mittwoch Brain Teaser: Jediny

Mr. and Mrs. Smith were honeymooning at Niagara falls. Mrs. Smith falls off the cliff and dies.

When the news of this reached their hometown, it was naturally on the news.

There, a man saw the broadcast and exclaimed, "that's why. I should have known!!"

what does he know?

Monkey Tuesday: Koko's Reading Primer

In Tampa, Horses Have Rights, Too

Apparently, this cop just rode through the bar on a whim. Not anything planned or, more importantly, agreed to by the owner, as far as the news is saying. Lovely.

From the local ABC News affiliate:

TAMPA - A Tampa Police officer was caught on tape walking his horse through a crowded Ybor City bar, and the police chief said she approves of it.

The 37 second video was posted on YouTube and shows a mounted police officer walking his horse through Habibi's Hookah Bar on 7th Avenue. A woman is heard screaming in surprise as the horse rounds a corner into her path.

Tampa Police Chief Jane Castor said, "It's good public relations." However, one business owner complained about the practice. . . .

WITNESS THE URKOBOLD'S LATEST COUP IN ACQUIRING THE EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS TO THE LEFT TIT OF THE GREAT PARAGUAYAN SOCCER FAN, LARISSA RIQUELME, WHICH THE URKOBOLD LICENSED OUT TO SOME ANTIPERSPIRANT COMPANY FOR $2.5 MILLION.

WANT THE RIGHTS TO THE RIGHT TIT? CALL 1-866-BUY-RACK TODAY! BIDDING WILL START AT $3.75 MILLION (FOCUS GROUPS INDICATE THAT MS. RIQUELME'S RIGHT BOOB IS MORE POPULAR BY A 2:1 MARGIN).

Larissa Riquelme. . .said that despite the defeat of Paraguay against Spain and, therefore, [its] disqualification from the 2010 World Cup, she will get naked anyway.

"It will be a gift to all players and all the Paraguayan people that enjoyed the effort and because they left everything on the court," Riquelme said before the Diario Popular, Paraguay. She further stated that it will be with pride.

Wayne Sulu Friday

Wayne was just finishing up moving boxes around. His office was finally repaired, and he couldn't wait to get the windows open so the diesel and dust would dilute the smell of fresh paint and plaster.

Sulu was making sure that the Snitch was safe, and he did it with a little humor. He sent the Snitch to work for Parker for a few weeks, just until they had a better handle on what the bad guys were out to do. Parker and the Snitch. A match made in cheap, pulp novel hell.

Forensics proved that the bomb was definitely poorly made, and they wondered if the A-team got blown up in the process of developing and testing the first models, before they fixed it to his desk.

Wayne selected a box. That was it. Marked "Eagle's Nest", it was a nonsense code that he sometime used to denote "current case" in dramatic fashion. Once, a dishonest client confessed when she thought that her simple case of insurance fraud was being attached to some "drug dealers". Stuff like that always made Wayne shake his head. Where do these fools exist? How do they get this far?

With his gun close by, he sat back in a new recliner chair and began to go over details of the case. He reached under the reading table and pulled out a bottle of bourbon and poured a little. Perfect. Except, this is a comfortable chair, and I'm not sitting with my feet up. What would Spenser do now?

After a few hours, he threw the file down. Nothing. He wondered if this was at a dead end.

Taking his drink, he thought about this, as he looked out the window, gazing across the city that hid its secrets.

I LIKE THE FOURTH OF JULY: Per and Gag Ball's Venture

credit. fear.

Many of you have been wondering what ever happened to Per and Gag Ball. They left our employ and decided to seek out fame and fortune. Per claims that "fame and fortune is a stupid game", and didn't credit Mission of Burma, even!

However, we see what they've been up to.

Happy Canada Day!

THE URKOBOLD DESIRES TO CONGRATULATE CANADA ON ANOTHER YEAR OF INDEPENDENCE FROM THE UNITED STATES, WHICH COULD EASILY ANNEX THE IMPORTANT PARTS OF CANADA BY DECLARING THAT ITS NORTHERN BORDER HAD MOVED UP 100 MILES.

UNFORTUNATELY, THE URKOBOLD IS TIRED FROM EXCESSIVE DELIBERBATING ABOUT WORLD CUP SOCCER THIS MORNING AND DEFERS TO WHATEVER THIS BOUNCY WOMAN HAS TO SAY ABOUT CANADA DAY:

. . .Throw Away the Cons-ti-tu-tion. . . .

Selecting a Substitute World Cup Team

NOW THAT THE UNITED STATES HAS MADE ITS USUAL EARLY DEPARTURE FROM THE WORLD CUP, THE URKOBOLD SEEKS ANOTHER TEAM TO ROOT FOR DURING THE REMAINDER OF THIS INTERNATIONAL TRAVESTY. THE URKOBOLD HAS NARROWED HIS CHOICES TO THE FOLLOWING TEAMS:

• GERMANY - AN OLD FAVORITE, BUT RATHER BORING TO WATCH
• ARGENTINA - LOTS OF OLD FRIENDS FROM THE WAR LIVE THERE, BUT THE URKOBOLD DOESN'T CARE MUCH FOR THE HAND OF GOD
• BRAZIL - NO, NOT UNLESS PELÉ PLAYS
• SPAIN - MAYBE, IF THEY PROMISE TO DO A BULLFIGHT AFTER EACH GOAL
• PARAGUAY - THE URKOBOLD KNOWS OF NO REASON TO SUPPORT THIS TEAM. WELL, MAYBE HE DOES KNOW OF A COUPLE OF REASONS AFTER ALL. . . .

HER NAME? LARISSA RIQUELME. HER COMMITMENT? TO RUN NAKED IF PARAGUAY WINS THE WORLD CUP. HOW CAN THE URKOBOLD SUPPORT ANY OTHER TEAM?

Vampire Thursday: Emo Vampire

Emo Vampire was not happy. He's going to get his wisdom teeth removed.

It all started at spring break, where he noticed a discomfort. They waited until school was out to do the procedure.

Now he has an excuse not to be doing anything for the Fourth.
