Hostess Bakery plants shut down Friday due to a workers' strike. It was split up. The State Department hired all the Twinkies, the Secret Service hired all the HoHos, the generals are sleeping with the Cupcakes and the voters sent all the Ding Dongs to Congress.
The NFL said pot would remain a banned substance for its players despite the change in some state laws. It's tricky. There are reports that since Colorado voted to legalize marijuana, Denver is going to change the name of Invesco Field back to Mile High Stadium.
German researchers said the nasal decongestant spray Oxytocin releases a hormone in men that makes them faithful to their wives. The precedure is simple. To keep a man faithful you spray Oxytocin up his nose, but it only works on generals if you use a firehose.
The White House website received petitions of secession after Obama's re-election last week. Self-deportation isn't happening. President Obama was elected president two weeks ago and so far Hillary Clinton is the only American who has moved to Australia.
Denny's in Miami added five percent to each diner's bill to pay for Obama Care. They hate government spending. One look at Denny's Grand Slam breakfast and you realize no restaurant has prevented more people from getting old enough to collect Social Security.
