Is it a Federal one?

[Brad]

Actually, they are making sure the ducklings aren't counterfeit.

[punky brewster]

Look! Another "lame duck" in government.

Or would that be a "sitting duck"?

[Guin]

Wow, I'm one of the people in the known universe...I feel so special! ;)

[Brainy Jello]

Where the hell am I, then?

[D'Artagnan]

Be kind to our web-footed friends, that duck may be somebody's mother."

[Bad Joke]

President (walking into Treasury building): What are all those tourists looking at?

Secret Service Agent: Duck, sir!

President immediately falls to the ground.

Secret Service Agent: Sorry, Mr. President.

[Tiercel]

Uh... please tell me the Secret Service isn't responsible for posting the sign that says "Quite Please." (Last of the pictures in the sequence.)

So that's what Federal Duck looks like!

Hey, wait a minute...I always thougth Fed Duck was a drake.... how embarassing, all that shameless flirting I did, back when he/she used to visit the blog regularly!

Well, I guess this answers all of our questions about whatever happened to Fed Duke, he/she has been sitting on eggs. Fed, if you take a break from the ole nesting routine and happen to see this, big hugs from me, congratulations on your soon to be hatched nine little bundles of joy!

[casey]

Uh, that would be DUCK not DUKE. TGIF, is it time to go home yet?

[Really Bad Joke]

President Clinton (walking into Treasury building): What are all those tourists looking at?

Secret Service Agent: Beaver, sir!

President Clinton immediately drops his pants to the ground.

Secret Service Agent: Sorry, Mr. President.

[uuhhh]

uhhhh

[U.O]

... a brown mallard, with white markings ...

... um ...

What other color Mallard is there? (As hens go, NEway.)

A "professional word person" who had bothered to do the proper research would have simply said "a hen mallard" or "a mallard hen" ... but that would not (not wood knot) have taken as many words, and might have actually been considered as a statement that was not speaking down to the readers, or as insulting to their intelligence ... aaaaahhhhhhh ... I give up!

sorry,

end of rant ...

for now ...

[Corny Joke]

President Bush 41 (walking into Treasury building): What are all those tourists looking at?

Secret Service Agent: A quail, sir!

President Bush 41 curses: I knew I should have chosen Jack Kemp.

Secret Service Agent: Sorry, Mr. President.

[Alternate Reality Joke]

President Dukakis (walking into Treasury building): What are all those tourists looking at?

Secret Service Agent: You sir. You look utterly ridiculous in that tank helmet. Maybe if you shaved your eyebrows a little you wouldn't look so, so, so Greek.

President Dukakis curses: Yeah, but if someone rapes and murders my dear Kitty, I have to protect myself because I wouldn't favor the death penalty for him.

Secret Service Agent: Sorry, Mr. President.

[Slapstick Joke]

President Ford (walking into Treasury building): What are all those tourists looking at?

Secret Service Agent: D... Aw shit, Mr. President, you're not supposed to fall down until I yell "Duck!" Who the hell elected you anyway?!?

[Tasteless Joke]

President Reagan (walking into Treasury building): What are all those tourists looking at?

Secret Service Agent: Duck, sir!

President Reagan replies: No way. The last time you pulled that one, I got shot. Remember? Or was that in one of my movies? Hmmm, Nancy, which movie did I get shot in?

Secret Service Agent: Sorry, Mr. President.

[Serious Joke]

President Carter (walking into Treasury building): What are all those tourists looking at?

Secret Service Agent: Nothing. They're not even tourists. They're lined up at a gas station in Baltamore.

President's poll numbers immediately fall to the ground.

Secret Service Agent: Mr. President, can I offer you some nuts?

[opiesgirl]

That duck is really undercover and working for the CIA.

Treasury Secretary John Snow stopped to pay his respects this week on the way back from a congressional hearing, Treasury spokesman Rob Nichols said Friday.

"He had been briefed on the duck and he stopped to pay a visit," said Nichols.

Yet another problem with Washington--people with real jobs would have just stopped to look at the duck that someone told them about.
