SELLING ICE TO ESKIMOS

What once used to be a joking phrase defining a certain kind of salesman may turn out to be prophetic.

With the dwindling ice pack in the Arctic Ocean, the lives of Eskimos and polar bears are threatened by global warming.

What the Arctic needs is ice.

One enterprising company has already proposed making artificial ice floes to place in the Arctic Ocean to give the polar bears platforms to hunt seals from.

"We can make 4 foot thick Styrofoam sheets that look and function like ice floes, "said John Tom, with Artificial Habitats Company of Tucson.

Artificial Habitats makes natural looking environments for zoo animals.

"What we are looking for are environment groups or countries willing the fund mass production of the artificial ice floes so we can save the polar bears.

CONSERVATIVE BRAIN FOUND DEFICIENT OF SYMPATHY AND CARING

TUCSON: Scientist at the General Delivery University today confirmed studies that prove conservatives have a brain defect that prevents them from feeling empathy, sympathy or caring a rat's ass about people other than themselves.

"There is indeed an anomaly in the brains of about 30% of the population which expresses itself in rigidity, dogmatism and conservatism," said Wily B. Greene, Director of the GDU Institute of Cognitive Misbehavior

"These people have no ability to deal with changes, adapt to new situations, or understand the consequences of sticking to the same old path even when there is overwhelming evidence that path is a disaster," added Greene.

"George W. Bush is a classic example of this defect," he added.

The new brain defect is proposed to be called the Bush Syndrome, as a result.

"People have to wake up to the fact that electing people to public office who suffer from this defect are only going to cause serious problems," Greene noted.

"The number of people with this syndrome indicates that it is slowly being weeded out of the gene pool through evolution, which may explain why conservatives are so adamant in their opposition to the Theory of Evolution," Greene explained. "They are a dead end branch on the evolutionary tree."


BUSH NOMINATED TO SOCIETY OF TITANIC CAPTAINS

NEWFOUNDLAND: The Society of Titanic Captains today announced US President George W. Bush has been nominated to become a member of this elite society.

"Every year we seek out a person in charge of something who best emulates the stubbornness of the captain of the original ship Titanic, who ran the giant ocean liner into an iceberg," said Amos Findley, current president of the Society of Titanic Captains (STC).

"Bush's constant claims that the US war in Iraq is going just fine is reminiscent of  the Titanic Captain's claim everything was going just fine minutes before the Titanic hit the berg and was fatally wounded.

If Bush accepts his membership in the STC, he will be included on the ocean floor just off Newfoundland, where the wreckage of the Titanic lies.
