Those Onion folks are more prescient than I realized. They are also funny as hell.

Crap! "The Onion" has been sold to Yu Wan Mei Amalgamated Salvage Fisheries and Polymer Injection Group

Oh well, if they keep the old articles on the 'net, I guess I can still poke around and dig up some good stuff for this thread. Sigh. . .

Maybe you'll find some as well. . .

"Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball"

That's not an 'Onion' video, but it's one of my favorite SNL commercials. You also zeroed in on my favorite line, 'Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball." My second favorite line: "Happy Fun Ball may stick to certain types of skin."

In 'Onion' news, Stephen Baldwin's assistant is promoted.
