I awoke to the news today that longtime music partners Brooks & Dunn are calling it quits – pending a farewell tour. Of course, the news came from Mrs. That Dan Guy, who can on occasion be a less-than-reliable news source. Point in case – I have yet to see anything official about the Brooks & Dunn announcement on the morning news – so she could just be delusional.

In that case, I hereby make my own announcements:

· * Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie are set to star in a Broadway revival of “Grease”.

· * Bob Barker confesses to being forced off of “The Price Is Right” hosting duties, to pave the way for Monty Hall’s return to TV. No one having consulted Monty, he declined, and producers had to scramble to find another host. I really wish this train of thought had been going somewhere…

· * Fruit Of The Loom announces the breakup of their popular spokes-models, as Apple signs deal to promote No-Name long-johns. Grape is crushed…

· * Jonas Brothers accidentally take music lessons – career is over!

Still no word on Brooks & Dunn – I say MTDG is nuts…

Chow for now!!

  12. It makes sense - they're both British, and both had scruffy beards.

    Imagine Lennon harmonizing on "You're Beautiful"!

  13. Dear God:
    Please put my friend Dan out of his mystery.
    Pleas use the closest lightning bolt and all will be well in the Universe once again.
    For bait try using on of those twinkie thingies.
    Thanks,
    Your ever faithful servant
