It's July 30, 2010 and time for…
Dale Irvin's Friday Funnies
     1. Oprah's ratings reached an all time low this week and are down 20% from this time last year. That must be the reason President Obama decided to appear on The View instead.

     2. From her room without a view, Lindsay Lohan has her hairdresser on 24-hour call so that when she is released, she can look good when she walks out the door. The jail has issued a statement that when Ms. Lohan is released, they will "leave a light on for her."

     3. The oddest story of the week once again belongs to Mel Gibson who is now seeking advice from…Brittney Spears!! I am not making this up. Mr. Pot, meet Mrs. Kettle.

Now it is time to stir the news pot and see what boils to the surface.
THE WEEK IN REVIEW

     What Could Possibly Go Wrong? – I am a big proponent of the second amendment but I still think there are some places where guns are inappropriate; for instance as props in your wedding photo. In Sicily, Valentina Anitra and Ignazio Licodia got married and their wedding photographer had an idea to pose the happy couple with guns in their hands…apparently a Sicilian thing. He asked the guests if anybody had guns that could be used as props and several men provided hardware for the photo. While the couple was posing, however, one of the guns went off and killed the photographer. This is not necessarily funny but rather ironic in a Sicilian sort of way and the reason that the only weapon that should be allowed in wedding photos is the knife used to cut the cake.

      Viva Road Rage – In St. Petersburg, FL, a 30-year-old woman suffered a case of road rage while sitting in traffic so she did what any rational sane woman would do. She got out of her car and jumped on the hood of another driver's car and flashed him. The woman took off her top and shook her breasts at the other driver. That'll teach him. In the words of Bre'r Rabbit, "Please don't throw me in the briar patch." When police arrived at the traffic jam, the woman ran away while drivers of other cars rolled down their windows and waved dollar bills.

     This Is Not A Joke – Dennis Hawkins robbed a bank in Swissvale, PA. At the time of the robbery, he was wearing a woman's blond wig, clown pants, and a sweater over fake breasts. He also had a BB gun he shoplifted from a store. Now, I am not a bank robber, but I think the purpose of a disguise is to conceal your identity, not draw attention to it. He was easily identifiable and was later arrested while sitting in a local transvestite-clown bar. This part is not true but it made me think of names for a transvestite-clown bar. I like Clara-"belles". 

You Wouldn't Believe What She Did With The Floss – Deborah Woist was cited for harassment after her son called police to report that his mom cleaned the bathroom with his toothbrush. Apparently she wanted to teach him a lesson albeit not one about personal hygiene. This should have been handled as a family matter rather than calling the police. I think the son should have done two things; A) purchase a new toothbrush, and B) used mom's to brush the dog.
