BEN TITUS Fireballs What can I say; I love everything related to fireballs. It was my fa vorite candy. I find it funny when volcanoes explode, destroy the is land, and kill its inhabitants. Plus I’ve always had a thing for the red heads, and finally because Fireball Island was the best board game EVER! If you don’t remember this game, let me refresh your memory. On fireball island the legendary Firestone jewel gleams beside its fierce protector, the idol Vul-Kar. To capture it, survive a swarm of flaming fireballs. To keep it, elude your pursuers and escape the un expected pitfalls of a mysterious jungle world It’s a game of rip-roaring action and heart-pounding suspense, and it all happens on the unique Fire ball Island game board. First, cap ture the jewel by reaching Vul-Kar before your fellow fortune-hunters do. They’ll roll fireballs, use magic charms, and play a pile of nasty cards to slow you down. Once you have the jewel, race for the dock. But stay ahead of your cutthroat op ponents! They’ll use the same tac tics to steal the jewel and escape! If you can make it to the dock with the jewel, you’ll be the ultimate jungle survivor! This is easily the best board game ever, and l W&s part of the rafist competitive event in the histßrjf&f the world. The time was Friday night and the crowd had gathered to watch the match or because it was warm and there was beer, but regardless people were there and cheering. Before I tell the break down of this game, I want to set one thing straight. This isn’t any creepy magic game that deals with putting on dark makeup, dressing black, and letting Satan borrow your soul for a couple of hours. This is good, clean, drunken fun for ages 4 and up- The stage was set, it was 8 at night and everyone was already buzzing. The game came right down to the wire with a fake jewel card in the mix. At the end there was total con troversy, and it turned out a girl had won the game! It was complete bull crap. Not even a single fireball to wards the end, which bothered me since I had a magic talisman card. Heck, one of the men involved was so upset that he later urinated in the judge’s mouthwash. But this was just the start of the fun and games to my night. The next thing I know I was in Vegas with Dave Coulier. Foote was with us and he kept complain ing about cell phones so Dave said, “Cut, it, out.” It was so hilarious that my pants became wet. Dave then pul led his hand from my pants, and we were off. We were in the city that averages 150 marriages a day, which reminds me that the 100 Year War actually lasted 116 years. But where was I? Oh, yes, lighting causes more storm related deaths in the U.S than anything other than floods. But if you’re ever in a situ ation where you need to jump from a building into a dumpster follow these rules: jump straight down (don’t project yourself off the build ing), aim for the middle of the dumpster, and land on your body back so your body folds. Unless the dumpster you are jumping in is full of broken glass HA HA HA HA HA HA HA. Ross Lockwood How do you put an elephant in the re frigerator?

The following article will BROADen the appeal of the hu mor page by helping women cope with a problem many have faced (well, at least the ones I’ve dated) - dealing with a boy friend who is not anatomically endowed. WHAT TO SAY: When your boyfriend says: “I have a small penis.” A poor reply would be: “Yeah I mean, 1 don’t care.” An acceptable reply would be: “I like it.” "Who Michael Butala My daddy is Mr. Michael Charles Butala, but I just call him “Pops” and he loves Pitt basketball. He’s also a very lazy man and commonly referred to as a bum. He also likes trying to get me to drink beer, and he loves Keystone. One night I was frottaging this girl be tween make out sessions, and I bluntly asked her who HER daddy was. To my surprise she said, “You, baby.” Well, I stopped right then and there because this girl was not MY daughter, or was it? I’ve spread my evil seed in one too many flowerpots and real ized that this girl could possibly be my daughter. I further investigated. “How old are you little girl?” I asked of the alligators are at the animal confer- 1 was watching highlights from the show “Man Vs. Beast” on Fox and I was imme diately pissed because I missed it. I couldn’t believe that a show like this was actually on the air, it’s so unbelievably stu pid. It gives me hope that the idea for my show “Phat Beach” will some day get aired. The whole concept behind my show is you get a bunch of supermodeis and put them on an island. Whichever supermodel puts the most weight on by the end of the show wins a million dollars. The catch is the only thing that they can eat is hotdogs and the only thing that they can drink is beer out of wooden buckets. It would be so funny because they would turn into fat slobs, and would no longer be supermodeis. What a great idea for a show. Well, anyways, back to “Man Vs. Beast.” I think the animals did a fantastic job considering that they are animals and don't know what the hell is going on. But one thing about the show that bothered me was when the orangutan beat the sumo wrestler in the tug of war. It was such a dive. There is no way Contributing Writer ’s IVly Daddy? her, and when she replied ‘seventeen” (she looked younger) it was time for some quick math, however I was so drunk I couldn’t fig ure it out. I was 22 and she was 17, so she must have been conceived when I was like 11, give or take a few years. Yeah, I was sexually active around that time so I pressed some more questions. “Who is your mommy little girl?” and she said, “Bonnie Blair.” For all of you who aren’t aware, she received Five gold medals in the 1996 Winter Olympics. Yeah, I ran her and I thought to myself, “This is my daughter.” So, after we had sex, I started to wonder if sex within the immediate family was a good idea. Obviously the morals be hind it check fine, but I started to wonder about the neighbors; what would they say? So I went to ask them, but they weren’t home. Needless to say, eight months later she had the physique of half the women at Penn State Erie: The Behrend College except un like the Behrend girls, she was straight up pregnant. This made the sex a lot more dif ficult to perform, and she kept bragging about how she gets to park closer at grocery stores because she was pregnant. This got me thinking, not about groceries, but about how this is sexual discrimination because unless you’re Arnold Schwarzenegger a male cannot give birth to kids. So I went to Jimmy Z’s, that has front row parking for Xules with Mustaches Month Bgual Garbage Cans A good reply would be: “You’re hung like John Holmes in a sauna.” When your boyfriend says: “Do you think I’m ‘small’?” A poor reply would be: “Yeah.” An acceptable reply would be: “1 like it.” A good reply would be: “Your trouser snake could scare away an anaconda.” When your boyfriend says: “I have large feet, but my penis isn’t that big.” A poor reply would be: “I guess it’s not always true.” An acceptable reply would be: “I like it.” A good reply would be: “I cannot walk for three days after we copulate.” When your boyfriend says: “I wish my manhood was ‘larger’.” A poor reply would be: “It’s an all right size, it’s as small as my ex-boyfriends.’” An acceptable reply would be: “I like it.” A good reply would be: “If it was any bigger you could enter a three-legged race alone.” WHAT TO DO IN SOCIAL SITUATIONS: DO NOT allow him to wear spandex or speedos in any situation, unless stuffed with the appropriate sockage. DO NOT leave him alone long enough at a party to fall prey to the suggestions of a “Crazy Shaun” to “get naked and run around the house.” This will only humiliate you and him, and possibly bolster the self esteem of many of the guys at the party. that a monkey could have enough strength to pull a 400 pound sumo wrestler down, even if the monkey was drunk and on ste roids at the same time. I also think that they should have had a baby race a three-toed sloth, but other than that I thought the show was amazing. On to my point. My girlfriend gave me a great idea. You know how kangaroos have pouches? Well, what are they for? Someone told me they are for baby kan garoos, but I have a better idea: Portable waste baskets. If you got done with a beer, all you would have to do is snap your fin gers, the kangaroo would jump over, and you would put the can in its pouch. DONE AND DONE! You wouldn’t have to get out of bed, plus you would have the com panionship of a kangaroo so you wouldn’t be considered a loser for drinking alone. Plus, they are soooo much more afford able than regular garbage cans. What happens to the garbage once it goes in the kangaroo? Who knows, it’s the stupid kangaroo’s job to worry about that. My thought is if there is in fact a baby kangaroo in there it can eat the gar bage. Otherwise I figure that the garbage will just somehow be magically absorbed men who recently knocked up a woman, cuz baby, we got problems too. Well, after the daughter and I went to the emergency room and gave bi/lh to a 10 pound 2 ounce cheeseburger instead of a bas tard child, bastard regarding the fact that my daughter and I were not married; it’s proper grammar. The hamburger was really good, but I sort of wish we could have had a kid with a little mustache like in Addams Fam ily Values; wasn’t he just adorable? So in conclusion, next time a guy asks you who your daddy is, just say, “Superfreak.” I been working so hard, keep punching my card, eight hours, for what?, Oh, tell me what I got, I get this feeling, that time’s just holding me down, I’ll hit the ceiling, Or else I’ll tear up this town, Tonight I gotta cut. Loose, footloose, Kick off your Sunday shoes, Please, Louise, Pull me offa my knees, Jack, get back, C’mon before we crack, Lose your blues, Everybody cut foot loose, You’re playing so cool, Obeying ev ery rule, Dig way down in your heart, You’re yearning, burning for some, Somebody to tell you, That life ain’t passing you by. I’m trying to tell you, It will if you don’t even try, You can fly if you’d only cut, Loose, footloose, Kick off your Sunday shoes, Oowhee, Marie, Shake it, shake it for me, Whoa, Milo, C’mon, c’mon let go, Lose your blues, Everybody cut footloose.
