Key Quote About A Better World: "It would be a world where you could strip naked whenever and wherever you want without a second thought. And that's what I try to do. I just feel like doing it rather a lot..."

LUMPY SQUIRRELS
According to this article, lumpy squirrels are natural. We quote:
Lumpy squirrels natural
A question that we often get this time of year concerns small, unsightly lumps protruding from underneath the skin of Eastern gray squirrels. Biologists call the lumps "warbles," which some folks mistake for tumors.
But biologists with the state Wildlife Resources Division say that warbles are a natural occurrence in squirrels this time of year.
This blog begs to differ with biologists with the state Wildlife Resources Division. This blog believes that they (the squirrels) (also possibly biologists with the state Wildlife Resources Division) are up to something.

In last week's episode, Jack, Chloe, Bill and Morris ended up in The Office. Incredibly, they did not kill Dwight. Speaking of being dead: Edgar still is. We give you now The™ Amazing™ Steve™.
ALL ABOARD THE GEEZER BUS
Once upon a time, there was a baby. His daddy wrote a column about the baby finding really disgusting things on the floor and putting them in his mouth. The daddy suggested stockpiling semi-disgusting things to use in trade, to get the really disgusting things away from the baby. This made the s.b. laugh and laugh, and write down the daddy's name in case he ever wrote something else funny like that.
The years go by. The daddy writes more funny stuff about the boy playing with He-Man toys, the boy and his diplodocus, his first day of school, and his experiences with Little League, helium, helicopters, middle-school parties and, of course, the weinermobile. The s.b. laughs.
Then one day, all of a sudden, the boy is teaching a class at the Miami Herald. About a program he wrote. It's a very useful program that lets us put stuff on a map.
But it is definitely not funny. Not funny at all.
YOU KNOW HOW YOU'RE ALWAYS SAYING THAT TV PROGRAMMING MAKES YOU SICK?
Well, don't click on this.

REMEMBER THE OLD JOKE THAT BEGINS: "WHY DO FOOTBALL GAMES HAVE CHEERLEADERS?"
The answer was: "To make the fans root harder." Which of course could be punctuated several ways. Anyway, this story reminds this blog of that.

CURRENCY UPDATE
I'm in Washington, DC, this morning, doing a satellite TV tour, which is when you sit in a room with a little thing in your ear and talk to TV stations all around the country for five minutes each, saying the same things over and over and over and overandoverandover until you want to shoot yourself in the head, and so does the camera guy.
So anyway, in the next studio there is another satellite TV tour going on, featuring the Treasurer of the United States, Anna Escobedo Cabral, who is introducing the new five-dollar bill. The new bill has many security features, including a tiny camera that sees what you are doing and transmits an image to the FBI.
Just kidding! I think. But the bill does look different, especially the side opposite the side with Lincoln on it (known, technically, as "the side opposite the side with Lincoln on it") which has three normal-looking "5"s and then, in the lower-right-hand corner, a giant purple "5." So your immediate reaction to this bill is, "THAT'S not a real bill!" But it is, according to Treasurer Cabral, a very nice lady who can be seen modeling it this exclusive CrapCam photo:
