The Flamingos had a hit with this one in 1959.

Danger, danger, danger
WEEKENDER is one of my favorite Sunday newspaper glossy parchment inserts, complete with advertisements for gaudy porcelain figurines of unicorns and mermaids with dolphins, Elvis commemorative plates, weight loss testimonials, uncirculated overpriced coins, specious gossip about famous people that I don’t know and don’t care about. It usually has articles on high blood pressure, prostate cancer, senility and mammograms to give you something to discuss with your family over breakfast.
I lost my original copy of this November 2006 issue, but itch one of the best, in this Bunk’s opinion.

China Denies Reverse Engineering Mice
呼和浩特 (從Strutts通訊社滑稽的荒唐) –
hu先生否認中國是違反版權法通過拆卸老鼠。
「沒有法律版權在老鼠設計! 我們的所有是拆卸我們捉住的那个，創造一個較不昂貴的方式做他們，放回他們一起，并且他們是，像新一樣。 然後我們賣他們到美國，美國人吃他們。「

UPDATE: Although the post preview displayed actual chinese characters, WordPress changed them to question marks in the final post. Here is the re-translation from Traditional Chinese to English:
Huhhot (from the Strutts news agency funny absurd) –
Mr. hu denies China is violates the copyright law through the disassemblage mouse.
“Does not have the legal copyright in the mouse design! We all are that which disassembles us to seize, creates a not expensive way to be them, returns them together, and they are, new is likely same. Then we sell them to arrive US, the American eat them.”
How can you argue with that?
Hot Wheels: Babe Maggot No.2
I meant “Babe Magnet.” Or maybe I didn’t. Note that the dead cat, Boone’s Farm bottle and the week-old wad of used Pampers all add nuance to artistic expression of the moment. Note also that the windows are rolled up.
But here’s the genius inherent in this work of Art: It compels the viewer to imagine what it smells like inside and to run away without ever knowing. A piece of artistic genius.

Is this a Great Country or What?
No other country in the world has Elvis impersonators on mini-bikes. (Take that, Ma’am Odd Imadinnerjacket.)

Here’s to Your Nulls, and more…
Since this is SNTC Anniversary month, we offer this tribute.
Okay. Assume you’re a male bee and… oh nevermind. The allegory doesn’t work with conchs. Let’s move on.
This configuration is designed for a two-person study group. The checkerboard has been removed for clarity.
Note the absence of TP. Note the presence of the sponge on a stick. Note that the sponge on a stick is not for cleaning the chamber pot. Note that the chain flushes nothing, but rings a chime.
Note that this is how very important people did it, and be glad that you didn’t have to answer the bell.
Nice western adaptation for the Turkish Toilet. (Bomb sights have since been added to this model. Roll up your trousers and keep your boots on.)
Thanx a load to b.b., jynx, Geezer & Donk for bringing all this to my attention.

Herd of Indricotheria Captured
Cerro Gordo, California (Strutts News Services)
Long believed to be extinct, a small herd of female Indricotheria was discovered Thursday by two amateur Porphyrophobic scientists at a local watering hole.
Ms. Tooncie Crumbler of the Cerro Gordo Oceanic Institute described the find as “…something so incredibly awesome! We saw them in their natural habitat before we corralled them. They were so docile.”
“They had the distinct odor of unglazed, unfired pottery, and showed pink scars where they had been injured from fighting for dominance,” added Mr. Lannie Foosers, Ms. Crumbler’s assistant and mentor. “We found no males in the herd, but they must be around somewhere.”
The herd, eleven in all including one juvenile, was transported without incident to the Inyo County Fairgrounds, where they will be fed and sheltered until their rightful owners show up to claim them.

Alfred Hitchcock deleted this first take of “the shower scene” from his masterpiece “PSYCHO.” Why? I dunno, Babs, but I do know this. Hitchcock almost always had a cameo role in his movies. In this scene, his makeup was amazing.
