Humor: May 2004 Archives

There's a war on. No, not that war, silly. The other one! You know, the one on doughnuts, corn chips, french fries, pasta, bread, and even certain fruits and vegetables. It's called "Atkins", and the Amateur Gourmet is fighting back!

I DECLARE THIS THURSDAY, MAY 20TH, NATIONAL CARB AWARENESS DAY.
That's right. Spread the word. This Thursday everyone--including you--will eat a gratuitous carbohydrate. No, not your daily dose of granola; we're talking a mega-cupcake, or a big black and white cookie. Thursday, we're going start a revolution and start it right. And if you have a website, please spread the word. The more people who know about it, the greater the impact we can make. Plus what else do you have to do? It's not like you have a vibrant social life. I'm just saying.

So, in conclusion, don't do it for your country. Don't do it for your God, or your mother, or your accountant. Do it for the organ that matters most. No, not that one. Do it for your stomach. Only you can save the carbs, America. Won't you?

And since a picture is worth a thousand words, there's also a SAVE THE CARBS movie.

It all started innocently enough. Michael sent an email to his friends to let them know about his shiny new email account.

Hey you guys:
Please write to me from now on at my new email address:

--------@gmail.com

p.s. this is a google mail account. keep that in mind when you write to me. (the phone may be safer)

But one of his friends decided to have a bit of fun:

"What a release it must be for a man so bound to conservative convention to eat a fistful of pills, throw on a leash, put something in his ass, and just party."
