1. Did Hugh G. Rection beat a hasty retreat?

[flakey_foont]

2. he went with his buddy

Harden Long

[TornadoTN]

7. I believe his Uncle was there as well

Adolph Oliver Beaver

[PollThis]

11. They picked up Woody Pokinthrew hitch-hiking nt

[TornadoTN]

14. I'm just glad Buster Kuntz was there to help them out n/t

[Richard Steele]

18. I'm surprised they had room, what with Hugh Jass in the back seat and all. nm

[eppur_se_muova]

38. Not to mention that hole in the back seat ... blamed on Mr. Completely. nt

[Richard Steele]

42. Nice! That one took me a minute! *thumbsup* nm

[krispos42]

57. :spray:

:spray:

:rofl:

:thumbsup:

[Bluebear]

3. "in our Hummer"

[Cooley Hurd]

5. Could've been worse...

...they could've said "during a Hummer.";)

Seriously, I'm sure the quote will make its way on Glenn Beck's show tonight...:grr:

[greatauntoftriplets]

4. The "Cartalk" staffer?

n/t

[swag]

31. Or their lawyers Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe?

[dave123williams]

6. OK - get this straight; disasters are extra-political.

I don't give a shit if they're driving a Hummer; I mean, it's not smart, and makes you look like you're extending a middle finger to the world.

However, the idea that someone's house deserves to burn because of their environmental ignorance just doesn't, er, truck with me and mine.

This is about making sure that people, American people, any of us, don't get burned up.

Get it?

[11 Bravo]

8. Thanks for playing "Totally Missing the Point".

[alcibiades_mystery]

17. ROFL

:rofl:

[Midlodemocrat]

50. There are some lovely parting gifts behind the red curtain.

:rofl:

[Teaser]

9. uh....read the name again, slowly

.

[dave123williams]

10. Aha. Obscene spoonerism. Really funny.

[Richard Steele]

12. Nope. That's not a Spoonerism.

It is pretty funny, though.

[dave123williams]

27. Right. 'Charles U. Farley' would be a spoonerism.

This is more like a Howard-Stern-esque, Seymour Butts kind of joke.

Funny is relative. Were I fourteen, I'd probably find that funny.

[Richard Steele]

32. Might be. nm

[tabasco]

35. Oh you're so mature!

Thanks for the laugh!!

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

51. If they'd gotten a teacher to say it, it'd be funny to a fourteen year old.

Getting CNN to fall for it is epic.

[knight_of_the_star]

52. I guess that makes my humor partially immature

Then again in times like these you always need a laugh where you can get it.

[hootinholler]

55. Not qute, Chuck U Farley would be

My favorite is "Shining wit" as in "He is a shining wit!"

-Hoot

[dave123williams]

56. Or, a cunning stunt.

[CT_Progressive]

13. He was reading "Yellow River" by I.P. Daily.

His kids were watching DVDs in the back. One was called "100 Yards to the Outhouse" by Will. E. Makeit, and the other was called "Antlers in the Treetops" by Whogoosed Themoose.

I would have recommended "Sex in Hawaii" by Comeon I. Wannalayya

[TornadoTN]

15. Funny, I had heard that they were reading "Tracks in the Sand" by Peter Dragon

nt

[Ellen Forradalom]

16. What about Anna and Connie?

The Lingis sisters?

[Richard Steele]

24. They got out OK & are spending the night with Mike Oxlarge. nm

[Ian David]

28. Or Ghonna and Dia... the Rhea Sisters? Or their uncle, Dick Pinch, from Clear Lake, Iowa. n/t

[TornadoTN]

19. Buster Highman considered giving an interview

But he was too broken up.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

26. He was advised against it by his law firm Cox, Gozinga & Hertz

nt

[lpbk2713]

20. Their friends Dick Hertz and Ben Dover were also in the car.

:eyes:

[Richard Steele]

21. And they got out just in time, thanks to a warning call from Xavier Onassis.

[tularetom]

22. I can't believe this thread got to 20 responses without the king of em all

Mike Hunt!

[TornadoTN]

23. I knew I was leaving one out!

The best one too!

[Ian David]

29. Breaking: Mike Hunt Burned In Fire. n/t

[eppur_se_muova]

40. Update of earlier post -- "Mike Hunt is burning"? nt

[Gruenemann]

25. Anyone hear from the English Comic

Ivor Biggin?

[SalmonChantedEvening]

30. Any news on the fate of Dewey Humpnau?

Andy Scrooder?

n/t

[tabasco]

34. I hope Harry P. Ness got out okay! n/t

[swag]

36. It so sucks that Jonah Goldberg ("Doughy Pantload") makes Greatest and this doesn't.

Snaps to the proud appreciators of beauty and truth.

[blondeatlast]

53. That does it. That made me fall outta my chair. Doughy Pantload.

Perfect. :rofl:

That made my day.

[Snarkoleptic]

37. We can't forget about the soviet era spy...Olga Roztyakokov.

or her comrade...Katia Yakinov.

[Steven_S]

39. Or her cousin....

Nadia Bityabalzov

[Richard Steele]

44. I was briefly married to her second cousin, Ima Zykovich.

It didn't work out.

[FredScuttle]

41. He went on to say he managed to save his only copy of "Tiger's Revenge"

by the noted French author Claude Bauls

[Quantess]

43. CNN has Glenn Beck, so they're dumb.

What show did this asinine bit come from?
Can't CNN tell that their savvy, smart, informed, viewers are seeing their intelligence disparaged, and that we don't appreciate it?

How many IQ points lower would you like to sink, CNN? Glenn Beck will be your "anchor" man.

[Warren DeMontague]

45. Who is "Ward", that's what I want to know.

:shrug:

[swag]

46. Yeah, I know.

Back in my day, I knew Heywood Jablomie, but Heyward is a new one on me.

[TornadoTN]

47. Probably to keep it as inocuous as possible

Haywood is so common in the joke that people catch it pretty quickly.

[Warren DeMontague]

48. That's what I get for over-thinking the fucker.

I thought maybe "Ward" was the head of programming at CNN, or something! :rofl:

[CT_Progressive]

49. I don't know, but he was a little hard on the Beaver last night.

:rofl:

[Warren DeMontague]

54. Maybe that's how he got his hummer.

What? :shrug:
