New Petition Favors Replacing Congress with SEAL Team Six
Elite Unit Gets Post-bin Laden Bounce
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) – In a startling measurement of public opinion since the successful mission to kill Osama bin Laden, Americans in record numbers are signing a petition to replace Congress with SEAL Team Six, the elite unit that took out the al-Qaeda madman.
The petition echoes the results of a new poll by the University of Minnesota’s Opinion Research Institute, in which the Navy SEALS trounce Congress by a lopsided 97% to 2% margin, with the remaining 1% answering, “Superman.”
Professor Davis Logsdon of the University of Minnesota said that the numbers behind the numbers were even more striking: “By a wide margin, Americans favor SEAL Team Six landing on the Capitol building with helicopters and taking out Congress by force.”
Added Professor Logsdon, “There’s a broad consensus out there that the Navy SEALs get things done, and that they would make C-Span more fun to watch.”
News of the petition and the survey caught the attention of Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus, who issued a strongly worded denial of rumors that SEAL Team Six were practicing maneuvers on a life-size replica of the Capitol building constructed inside an abandoned Linen ‘n’ Things in suburban Virginia.
In other post-bin Laden news, the White House said that they were “no longer concerned” about the American people being grossed out by images of Osama bin Laden: “After all, they’ve been looking at Trump for weeks.”
Elsewhere, in reporting on Bin Laden's death, Fox News apologized for mispronouncing Barack Obama's name as "George W. Bush."

Morning, all. What did I miss?
Well, Alfred learned that the reports of Penelope's death in a freak water balloon accident were false when she showed up during his wedding to Diane. Meanwhile, Joshua was shocked to learn that he was the father of Melinda's child, despite the accident that left him sterile 20 years earlier. And, across town, Sophia decided to tell her parents the truth about....No, wait! That's my soap opera!

Cougar piss, mixed with many common household spices, will keep snakes and other nasty reptiles away.

Reminds me of Jurassic Park 3 where the kid had a bottle of T-Rex pee.
"How did you...?"

Sorry I've been MIA for a while now folks, I've been sick and trying to get this Wayfinder illo done, I'm almost there. On the upside I got more sleep last night than I have in recent nights.... meaning a few hours, but it's an improvement.
I hope to be back in full swing soon enough, and hope you guys, and gals, are doing well despite life's little landmines it leaves outside our front doors from time to time.
Can't wait to see the art, man.
Speaking of which, I FINALLY finished inking/coloring your piece from months ago.

IDK what the deal is really. I have noticed quality of care in medical issues around here has steadily declined since Romneycare came into being in the PRM. Of course, I may be viewing this through partisan glasses, but in the end, I base my philosophy on what I observe with my own eyes, not what some policy wonk puts out in an internet article.
The nurses telling me that 'oh, Jim had your number, but he must have assumed when I was calling the wrong number that I was calling the one he had.' was a corker. Or, 'Well, the MICU had your number, but they have a different computer input than we do, and we couldn't access it (the MICU and her current bed are but a dozen steps away from each other on the same floor). OR, 'Well, we have the wrong number in our computer system, but we have to call to get that removed, so we'll put your number in another place in our computer systems we like to put numbers in such cases.' (leading me to speculate, 'why can't you CALL this mythical place and have the wrong number removed to resolve any further issues like this?')
*sigh* bureaucracy at its best.
Lowry: Excuse me, Dawson, can you put me through to Mr. Helpmann's office?
Dawson: I'm afraid I can't sir. You have to go through the proper channels.Lowry: And you can't tell me what the proper channels are, because that's classified information?
Dawson: I'm glad to see the Ministry's continuing its tradition of recruiting the brightest and best, sir.
Lowry: Thank you, Dawson.

No worries, I'm really glad you liked it. I've got my WF piece done, but it won't be up until Hugo says it's OK.

Not this time. It did in 07, but this time it's different. Go figure. (Heck, there is even significant variation from day-to-day, depending.)

Really? That sucks, but I would like to see you jump a building in a single bound. You'd be a YouTube sensation!

I'd need an upbeat soundtrack and cute animal sidekick.
