Gas prices eased today as Merrill Lynch subsidiary SBD passed 100,000 gallons of methane into the U.S. supply. (should I make this any worse?)Republican presidential candidate John McCain then upped the ante when he contributed another 100,000 gallons, produced by the content of his recent campaign ads.

another site notes that the bull's blue balls were "suspiciously timed" with Banksy's visit to NYC ...http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/09/arts/design/09publ.htmlI love Banksy and all, but it does feel a bit better to think it was a taxi-cab full of newly-broke drunks who dreamed it up ...

Batman: "Chose the wrong partner in crime yet again, eh Joker? You'll never learn -- a tight body suit might be distracting, but eventually it falls out of fashion when tarnished by the forces of Truth and Justice!"Robin: "And Joker, please tell the lady that the answer is yes ... she can call me Robin."Batman: "Who's got the blue balls now, eh Joker?!?!"
monkeyboots (anonymous) says…
Holy capitalism, Batman! How can we defeat the robber barons and Goldmine Sachs when the Penguin has teamed up with the brilliant Governor Catwoman? Why, the entire country of Russia is right next to her state!
