Missing The Point

I’ve got a short missive up on Page 2 on the retirement of Chief Illiniwek at the University of Illinois.  Look below the picture of Captain Kangaroo.

Well, here’s a brief MAIL CALL!!!  This is from Travis.

Because of you pc hammer-heads, we have to make a big deal about a guy dressed in full Indian gear.
How about making yourself a hero and find out who is using steroids in baseball or rail against the NBA thug-reefer league

instead of college mascots.

Give us a break 

You know, I love how the retort to an attack of a stereotype involves invoking another stereotype.

The funniest part to me, though, is being called a “pc hammerhead.”  I’ve been called lots of things.  Politically correct?  Well, this is a first.

Another Crank Call Classic

I just wanna know this…

When’s the last time somebody called you at work just giving away free shit?  I’ve never been sitting around and gotten a call for nothin’.  In fact, I throw away the mail that says that I’m getting something free because it sounds like a scam.  So how do these dudes stay gettin trapped?

Anyway, the humor of this clip is mostly generated by linguistics.  Indians tend to speak very properly, which adds to the humor of this.  Classic stuff, man.

Listen here.
