Celebrate.

I heard about it on the radio so that is how I know it must be true.

Everyone knows the Titanic sank many years ago on the way to New York.  What is less know is it contained a cargo of mayonnaise from Europe intended for Mexico which was the next destination.  Everyone knows the people of Mexico love mayonnaise (the Mexican coworker I told this to was surprised at this).  When the people of Mexico heard the anticipated cargo was lost, they were greatly saddened.  They have mourned the sinking of the mayo ever since on the 5th of May.

So no bullscat:  one of the dominant food items brought by illegals while crossing the desert border into the US, is mayo.  It's cheap, energy dense, and hydrating.

Cinco deported.

Or better yet, Cinco millón deported.

I'm not signing this one so nobody will know who posted it.

A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?

I think at this point in the inflation ride a banana might cost $10.

Okay, this is different

Quote
“Star Wars” and nudity are a dangerous combo.

Give a nerd both Tatooine and girls in tassels, and who knows what untold havoc will be wrought?

Yet that’s what “The Empire Strips Back,” a funny sci-fi burlesque show in the East Village, has on offer: A gung-ho evening for ticket buyers who know what made the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs and/or would like to see women tantalizingly remove articles of clothing.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.
