Oh, cool I get to die at the wrong end of a shotgun in Sperryville just like I always figured would happen after taking a wrong turn looking for the antique store.

East Coast USA, Treehouse Of Horror starts in 30 minutes. Watch it live on Fox -- you don't want to make Mr. Teeny angry.

The front desk lady at the optometrist whispered to me that her boss hates her hot dog bird, so I filled out a comment card saying it was my favorite thing about the place

I used to work at the Marine Sciences Lab next to the Dental School. In retrospect everyone who worked there had autism.

In an earlier skeet we misidentified Chancellor Gowron as Chancellor Martok. We regret the error. Today is a good day to die.
