    Great. I’m So Inconsequential it Physically Hurts was going to be MY breakthrough single on the folk charts. Thanks for stealing my dreams, Ben.

    “1924: Easing the Great Depression through a hilarious puppet show”

    I’m guessing they were so drunk on Prohibition gin they didn’t realize the Great Depression hadn’t started yet?

    Also, the list of despotic banana republics made me cry with joyful surprise.

    Historical accuracy’s for wimps.

    Hilarious puppet show my ass! I don’t think any puppet show has ever been responsible for close to 500,000 American deaths. And 36,000 Iraqi civilian deaths.

    gosh. either someone completely fails at getting humor, or someone completely fails at trying to humorously pretend not to get humor.

    I fully intend to lull humanity into a false sense of security via a hilarious puppet show, then use the puppets to bludgeon dissenters to death one at a time. Then I will use the puppets’ heads as bowls from which to eat the delicious soup I will make from the blood of the afore-mentioned dissenters. mmm….

  6. Rachel Beukelman Says:

    I think I saw Gail’s puppet show performed by Punch and Judy.

  7. mim Says:

    What? WHO STOLE MY GIG?
