    Not Buyin' It

    What he neglected to mention was that those three Shakespeares that he read were the instruction manuals for his new Shakespeare 250 Prius spinning reel, the Shakespeare WonderPole that Laura bought for him and the really cool Shakespeare Ugly Stik Spincasting Kit that Cheney gave him.

    Sorry, Mr. Liar, but anybody who really read Shakespeare would have said "I read "Hamlet", "Taming of the Shrew" and "Macbeth"", not "I read three Shakespeares". (And who are you kidding? When Laura suggested Camus, you know as well as I do that she was referring to Jethro Camus' long-awaited "Anthology of Outhouse Humor-Volume 2", and then only because of the 3 chapters devoted entirely to farts and farting.)
