Jay Z & B 4-eva?

Tue, 08 Apr 2008 19:07:46 -0400

Did Jay Z and B tie the knot?
Confirmation is what we’ve not got
Some say she’s knocked up
From a pre-nup schtupp
What’s the press say? Not a whole lot.

Father & Daughter Procreate

Mon, 07 Apr 2008 17:35:35 -0400

An Aussie couple had a child
Now internationally they’re reviled
Between daughter and dad
Much gross sex was had
A nuclear family restyled

Father, daughter have child together

People Are Dumb

Said the cop as he inhaled the smell,
“What is that thing? I can’t tell!
Is that a dead baby?”
Said the other cop, “Maybe!”
But it turns out it was Taco Bell.

Step By Step

In the 90s, they stopped Hangin’ Tough
But staying away was too rough
For NKOTB
They’re back on the marquee
(And actually, looking quite buff.)

Rickrolling over a dead horse

Wed, 02 Apr 2008 15:10:05 -0400

If I hear that damn song by Rick Astley
One more time, the result’ll be ghastly
It’s time for all them
To move to the next meme
The internet will improve vastly

Barack Bowl-bama

Tue, 01 Apr 2008 14:08:07 -0400

He thought it might help him with polling
So Barack spent the afternoon bowling
But he scored under forty
Which proved he’s not sporty
At least when it comes to ball rolling

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree

Limerick Lady’s Dad sent her the following this morning:

There once was a Hokey Dad
Whose jokes were very sad.
To make matters worse,
He tried to write verse
And what came out was very bad.

Matsui's Marriage

Fri, 28 Mar 2008 11:11:00 -0400

Said Matsui to Jeter, Abreu
“A grand for first married— what say you?”
But when he made the bet
His wedding was set
To a white sheet upon which he drew

Matsui Gets Married

Tyra Banks vs. Jay Manuel

Thu, 27 Mar 2008 18:29:36 -0400

They say Tyra is leaving Top Model
Because she is wanting to throttle
The show’s Mr. Jay
(He’s the photo shoot gay
Who should stay away from the dye bottle)

The Scoop on MSNBC

LA Times Tupac story

Thu, 27 Mar 2008 16:53:04 -0400

The L.A Times made a big oops
Uncovered by Smoking Gun snoops
Litigation’s impending
Soon there will be no ending
To the marching of lawyerly troops.

NY Times Coverage of Shakur Story

Spitzer Strikes Again

Thu, 27 Mar 2008 10:59:00 -0400

The Post says, “There He Ho’s Again”
Client 9 went to more than one den
Of wide open thighs
It’d be no surprise
If he’d also been sleeping with men.

And There He Ho’s Again

Buff Nerds

Wed, 26 Mar 2008 23:29:00 -0400

All the sad young literary men
Have made dormant both keyboard and pen
And headed to Crunch
To work off their lunch
Face like Foer, but body like Ken

Nerds of Steel
