“Tragedy is when I cut my finger,” Mel Brooks once said. “Comedy is when you fall into an open manhole and die.” The two light bulbs in our kitchen burnt out last night, and it was tragic. This photo, on the other hand, is comedy gold. – Kiran
I’m not the smartest guy in the world, but I’m certainly not the dumbest. I mean, I’ve read books like “The Unbearable Lightness of Being” and “Love in the Time of Cholera”, and I think I’ve understood them. They were about girls, right? – Shaan
SMILE OF THE DAY
What happened to my beloved neighborhood French pastry shop around the corner?! CLOSED?! How could this happen?! I’ll tell you how: Not enough patrons coming out and enjoying some tasty genuine French croissants rather than sitting at home and eating Pillsbury cinnamon bun dough directly from the container. People – we could have had a nice French bakery. But, no, the respectable bakery didn’t make enough money, so the government had to ship the French people back home leaving us with Taco Bell Taco Salads, as snacks. – Kiran
Gloomy economic news doesn’t matter, as long as you’ve made yourself an indispensable part of the socio-economic fabric. Everyone else might be worried about job security, but as we all know Cat Wrangling is notoriously recession-proof. – Kiran
The way I live: Naked. In these dour economic times, I can barely afford my diapers much less buy clothes. All that fabric is expensive! So, I, like so many other nude Americans sit at home, causing all the retail stores to go broke and forcing small business owners to sell their wares at crazy discount prices just to stay afloat. On the plus side – I look even more muscular when I’m shirtless, in a Speedo with a savage tan. – Shaan
If you took off on vacation last week instead of reading Kiran and Shaan’s World working, shame on you. While you’re catching up on your email, here’s a sample of what you missed: There was murder, and mustard, and abstinence, and then Big Bird sparked a fried chicken riot. – Kiran
Not too much happening on this dreary Tuesday: Elmo is using an Etch-a-Sketch to hack into Grover’s email account – his psychic told him Grover said it was ok. I’m documenting everyone’s boogers – including my own – on YouTube. – Shaan
It was reported that last night, Snap, Crackle and Pop got into a fight over who got the last lobster roll that was so epic, it landed the entire Rice Krispies gang in the hospital. In my opinion, Snap, Crackle and Pop must settle this like men and lock themselves in a neutral room with a tub of cooking oil and wooden fraternity paddles. The winner should receive the customary “bragging rights” and said lobster roll. – Kiran
As you may have heard wild rabbits have invaded Orange County. And they’re causing problems – unless they’re wild rabbit babies, in which case they’re adorable! But seriously, remember: DO NOT FEED THE RABBITS. It leads to inappropriate rabbit-human mingling. – Shaan
