A funny IM I had recently:
sarah: are you buying gold?
spudart: ha. i should. but i’m afraid that will get overinflated
sarah: NO. a big service provider in europe just announced they are raising premiums 60%. THERE WONT BE ANY MORE. silver is already gone
spudart: gone?
sarah: you can’t find it
spudart: like, there is no silver left in the world to be found?
sarah: not that anyone wants to sell you
spudart: Mars. i bet the marsians have a stockpile of silver
spudart: do you think they look at our planet and laugh? “OH those earthlings!”
sarah: hehehehe
spudart: “what are they up to now?” “Why would they ever vote Sarah Palin in as VP? Even we can see alaska from here. Maybe we should run for VP.”
spudart: “what? you have to be born in america? Well crap. Let’s just invade and take over the planet.”
spudart: “no wait. let’s just send some of our aliens down, they can live there for a while, have some babies, and the baby can become vp.”
spudart: “uh. bob. That’s what sarah palin is. She’s a marsian.”
spudart: “oh… Hey, it’s spelled ‘martian.’ dumba55. You can’t even spell our own nationality.”
spudart: “well. that’s how we are, bob. We are dum.”

Are you okay? or were you snacking on m&m’s…and high fructose products?
Speaking of high-fructose products, has anyone seen those pro-high-fructose corn syrup commercials presumably created by some type of Corn Council? I thought that was quite interesting. Poor corn gets a bad rap.
PRO HIGH-FRUCTOSE COMMERICIALS? These surely do not exist. You must have dreamt these up one night.
I certainly do not dream about high-fructose corn syrup. They DO exist. So far, I’ve seen three variations. One with a couple having a picnic in the park, one of two moms at a kids’ birthday party, and one with two brothers eating breakfast.
Here are the first two. Can’t find the breakfast one on youtube. Oh, and there are 195,000 search results for “pro high-fructose corn syrup commercials.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEbRxTOyGf0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVsgXPt564Q
