KIDS SMOKING MARIJUANA? WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO?
Hundreds of whiney suburban kids were arrested and held in jail cells by Manhattan police after they lit joints following a rally supporting the legalization of marijuana. Mayor Rudolph (Adolf) Giuliani defended the arrests,
saying "Let's not be hypocritical. Smoking marijuana is a crime and the offenders should be punished." The mayor then hurried off to commit adultery with his mistress.

SCIENCE STRIKES OUT
What's new in science and medicine from our own staff science reporter, Dr. Mel E. Levine: "No gigs this week, just boring science journals to leaf through. Next week I'll be at Smiley Face in Decatur Illinois, I'll be emceeing the Monday amateur night. If they like
me, it could turn into a regular gig. In science, botanists have successfully grafted a human gene onto a vegetable gene, so from now on when they talk about ears of corn, they'll really mean it. That's the world of science from where I sit." --Mel

PENN JILLETTE SAYS:
Hi there. My voice keeps getting more and more annoying doesn't it? I don't know how Teller stands it. And our shows gets worse too, have you noticed? First we started doing less magic in our stage shows
and added lots more blood, then we did that terrible syndicated television show from Vegas...well look, we have to pay our bills too. And speaking of people who have to pay their bills, please click on one or two of the fine folks who sponsor my favorite website, Untrue News. Go ahead, click
on two of them, come back, and I'll levitate myself two feet off the ground in a standing position. I'll wait. Okay, you clicked? Okay, here I go. Oops, I can't seem to get off the ground. I wonder why that is. Teller, look under my feet, something seems to be sticky. Aha. No wonder I can't
levitate. It's because I'm standing on a million ROACHES! Look at them crawl! Ahhhh hahaha. AHHHHhahahahahaha! Thanks you folks, we'll be out front hawking t-shirts after the show. Goodnight!
