Iraq Enlists the Aid of Sandworms in War
BAGHDAD (Just Laugh) - Shortly after catching wind of the United State's actions of enlisting dolphins to aid in the search for underwater mines around the gulf coastal areas, military officials in Iraq announced that they too have made efforts to incorporate the killing of harmless animals into their own fascist regimes.
These tiny creatures, when released into the harsh desert flatlands, are hoped to burrow deep into the sands surrounding key Iraqi cities, setting off old and discarded landmines that the leaders have long since forgotten about, thus making the area safe for foot traffic by soldiers and other military personnel.

flight to Newark International in New Jersey,
David Meanson, a lucky bastard from Rockford,

Town Sues Parker Brothers After Ouija Board Mishap
GREENFIELD, Mass. (Just Laugh) - In what promises to be a landmark court case, Greenfield,
Massachusetts will be the first township in U.S. history to sue a game
company for damages. The announcement came on the heels of a request for
state and federal aid from Mayor Olaf Carson after half of downtown
Greenfield was destroyed due to a rampaging extradimensional demon.
According to sources, the trouble began when Michael Osterman, a local sewer
inspector, last Saturday bought a Parker Brothers Ouija Board for his family.
That same evening he, his wife and two children tried out the board for the
first time. Tragically, they inadvertently opened up a portal to hell. <<FULL STORY>>
Former President Clinton Quietly Reminisces Back Home
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (Just Laugh) - As the world turns in complete turmoil, leaving the U.S. economy in shabbles and a nation divided against war and justice, small fits of chuckling could be heard from the south as one of our previous leader recalled some of his finest moments from his past years in politics. Now with his daughter off to college and his wife in New York, Clinton calmly sits by a warm campfire, accompanied only by his faithful dog Seamus, re-telling the stories of sexual escapades and late-night document shredding sessions which had brought him so much joy. Aside from the book deals and television specials gone awry, it is rumored that Clinton's new longing is the most genuine of all - a son to call his own.
"It sure would be nice to have somebody to pass all of this great wisdom down to..." sighs Clinton. There's still time, Billy. There's still time...
