The head of the Russian Olympic Committee has resigned after Russia's lackluster showing at Vancouver. It was either resign or be fired, which would still be better than the old days in Russia when you weren't fired, you were fired on.
New York Governor David Paterson is being accused of breaking ethics laws by obtaining free Yankee tickets for the 2009 World Series. It was also reported that Paterson was disruptive at the game by repeatedly hollering, "You missed that by a mile, Ump...what's the matter..are you freakin' blind?"
It's been reported that Sarah Palin is working on a new book. There's also talk of a reality TV show in her future as well as a movie deal. Good for her. Hopefully that will keep her busy well past 2012.
Sarah Palin says the book she's currently writing will be a "celebration of American virtues". Sarah's daughter, Bristol, is helping her mother with this book on virtue. She proofreads the manuscript every afternoon when her bastard child goes down for a nap.
On Tuesday, Sarah Palin performed a stand up comedy routine on Jay Leno's show. It was a revelation for thousands of skilled comedians who continue to wait for their first big break on the Tonight Show: first, you attend five colleges, then you get into sportscasting, then you get yourself elected as councilman, mayor, and finally governor, then engage in a losing, half-assed presidential campaign that involves buying lots of new clothes, free plane rides for the kids, and futile attempts at dodging questions from Katie Couric (that bitch!), then quit your job as governor so you can spend more time with your snarky family, then write a 400 page load of crap you call a memoir, become a correspondent for FOX News (a great breeding ground for clowns)then go back out and stump for the brain-dead ultra-conservative cause.........then....MAYBE THEN....Jay Leno will hire you.
Scientific research shows that methane gas is leaking through the Arctic Ocean floor and into the Earth's atmosphere. Scientists say that this seepage of methane will wreak havoc with the entire world's climate. There is an advantage however to having the atmosphere permeated with methane gas. You'll be able to fart all you want and no one will know the difference.
About Me
- Wendel Potter
- My writing career took off in 1979 and it continues to roll. I've written comedy for Joan Rivers, Jay Leno, Rodney Dangerfield, and the Yakov Smirnoff Show. I was a weekly columnist for a Nebraska newspaper for 10 years. Several of my short stories have been published in a national magazine, Woman's World. This blog is a return to old columns dear to my heart and new essays that are currently ideas on a close horizon. I hope we can become friends.
