Love Burnin' Loaf

Now, I don't know about anyone else, but I'm one heck of a Meatloaf fan. No, not the kind your mother used to make for me on Sunday mornings, but the singer guy. Some of you might know him better as Bob from Fight Club. Whatever your reference is, he freakin' rocks. I was listeneing to his greatest hit collection last night( it only has 1 song) and I began to ask myself..."What won't he do for love??????" This question has been burning through the deepest caverns of my loins for many hours now. I feel compelled to share my list of things that I believe that Mr. Loaf won't do for love. Here they are:

1. Dip Oreos in Karl Rove's milkshake.
2. Have "Captain and Tennille" tatoo laser removed from right buttock.
3. Legally change name to "Pot Roast."
4. Sell soul for Dr. Pepper commercial(damn, already did that!)
5. Accept President Bush's nomination for Supreme Court Justice.
6. Sell his financial stake in Corn Futures.
7. Publically condemn Iran for anti-semitic comments. "Hey man, the Loaf don't judge."
8. Explain why objects in the rear-view mirror may appear closer than they are.

Please feel free to personally ponder your own ideas of things Mr. Loaf just will not do for love. Ciao.

Business at Gaza Starbucks Down 99% in 2 Days

Investors on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE)were scrambling today amidst news that Starbucks will miss Q3 earnings expectations due to a sharp decline in stores on the Gaza Strip, surprisingly one of the company's most important regions. "We are freakin over here even though Starbucks trades on NASDAQ," one trader said, "that just shows how big this is and how touchy we are." Investors across the globe are scrambling to sell their calls, buy their puts and cover their shorts. David Tzur, analyst for CitiGroup, called the decline in Starbucks sales "by far the most devastating side effect of the Israeli-Palestinian crisis." Several Jewish settlers interviewed by The Scoffer seemed to think that the most devastating side effect of the Israeli-Palestinian crisis was the loss of their homes and Biblically promised birthrite.

Raffy Comes Clean

Less than a week since the first stories of the alleged Palmeiro steroid scandal broke, the Baltimore Oriole's First Baseman has decided to end all speculation and come clean on the issue exclusively to The Daily Scoffer. "Ok, ok, you got me...MLB got me and now I'm, well, just a little screwed," Palmeiro stated late Wednesday night. He went on to say "it's a sad day when a grown man, a professional athlete at that, can't take a bit of the juice and not have anything to worry about. For the love of professional curling, I'm almost 41 years old...How the hell did you think I was still able to get out of bed in the morning and still compete with guys half my age?" About half way through the interview, conducted by TDS' own Boog Rector, a well respected journalist and personal friend of Rafael, Mr. Palmeiro decided to admit to a few other items of speculation in his life, albeit somewhat less interesting than the stanozolol topic. "Yes, I admit it, I like Kelly Clarkson, no, no, I love Kelly Clarkson. (singing) Since you've been gone, yeah, yeah, I can breathe for the first time....I'm so moving on, yeah, yeah. I mean seriously, that song is awesome. You wanna know what else, I don't wash my hands after using the bathroom and I voted for Al Gore. So there you go, put that in your pipe and smoke it." Mr. Palmeiro went on to admit numerous other personal items, most of which were rather disturbing. TDS has chosen to print the following list of admissions by Mr. Palmeiro only under extreme warning to the readers:

1. Subscribes to "German Horse Porn" Monthly
2. Dips Oreos in orange juice
3. Watches "The Situation" with Tucker Carlson
4. Bathes in jell-o
5. Owns every single copy of the "Hardy Boys"
6. Went on tour with Barry Manilow from 1987-89

The list goes on but we fell that the above is more than enough for you to make your own opinion of good ol' Raffy.

Area Roommate Tired Of Being Called "Flatmate"

David Bryson, roommate of Carl Winslow, has had it with his roommates new found obsession with the British vernacular the Scoffer has learned. "His freakin girlfriend made him watch some Hugh Grant movie and now I am his flatmate and he keeps asking me if I want to go "tip a pint", Bryson reports. When asked what he was going to do about it Bryson said he will take Winslow mother, Dorothy Winslow, out for a nice fish and chips dinner then never call her again.

Mid Tournament Sponsor Rocks NCAA Hoops

Just days before the continuation of 2005's March Madness and the beginning of the Sweet Sixteen, NCAA Chairperson Nadia Bakersfield announced on Wednesday that Chang's House of Chinese Food will sponsor the duration of the tournament. The Topeka, Kansas based hot-spot approached Ms. Bakersfield months before the tournament began with the idea of naming each round after a favorite Chinese dish. "Basketball and all-you-can eat Orange chicken, what more can you ask for," Mr. Sammy Chang, owner of Chang's House of Chinese Food, told The Daily Scoffer. After months of persuasion and free Chinese food via overnight FED EX, Ms. Bakersfield finally decided to pull the trigger on the idea. "It's just too steamy of a concept to pass up," she announced in the Wednesday press conference. So here it is folks, for the rest of the tourney, the rounds will be named as follows:

"Sweet and Sour Pork with Snow Peas" Sixteen
"Moo Goo Gai Pan" Eight
"General Tso's Chicken" Four
"Mongolian Hot Pot with Tofu and Water Chestnuts" Championship Game

Mr. Chang states that all tickets sold to the final game can be redeemed for a free soft-serve ice cream cone at any of his many locations across the country. Enjoy!
