Boy, is this classic ever timely right now:




We interrupt this program with a special bulletin:

America is now under martial law.

All constitutional rights have been suspended.

Stay in your homes!

Shut up!

Do not attempt to think or depression may accur.

Stay in your homes!

Curfew is at 7 PM sharp after work.

Anyone caught outside of gates of their suveillance sectors after curfew WILL BE SHOT.

Remain calm, do not panic.

Your neighborhood watchofficer will be by to collect urine examples inthe morning.

Anyone gaught intefering with the collection of urine examples WILL BE SHOT.

Stay in your homes, remain calm.

The number one enemy of progress is question!

National security is more important than individual will.

All sport broadcasts will proceed as normal.

No more than two people may gather anywhere without promission.

Use only the drugs described by your boss or supervisor.

Shut up, be happy!

3. Hey Heidi!
:hug:

Mrs E. loved her birthday; we're going to take a road trip out of town tomorrow and get away from everything; we both need it.

I spent the night catching up on my station emails; some guy from Saudi Arabia thanked us for the Saturday Barn Dance Show we have on and requested a bunch of obscure bluegrass songs for us to play. I love emails like that..

2. Set to the tune of the Bobby McFerrin song?
Seriously, old Jello has a way of seeing into the future sometimes.
