XOF First Spouse



XOF interviewed former President and Commander In Chief Bill Clinton. We asked him how he felt about a possible return to the White House. "Well, heheh, some of my fondest memories came in the White House. I'm very excited about the possibilities--I'm not getting any younger, but they are! Yes, Hillary's going to be very busy, I'll probably have a lot of time on my hands. Maybe I'll redecorate some of the bedrooms. You know, the White House kitchen is awesome, I'll bet I gain twenty pounds again. Teddy Roosevelt said that the White House was a bully pulpit, walk softly and carry a big stick. Heheh, you know what a bully stick is? Nevermind. What was I talking about, o yeah, I'll use that bully pulpit to work on my passion, which was... you know, my passion."

XOF FDA



The US Food and Drug Administration announced tough new rules today in its on-going campaign against smoking. They are recommending that communities also ban the depiction of smoking in public areas. While agreeing that advertising and pop imagery can provide a strong impetus to smoke, some people think the rules go too far. "What? Now I can't even hold an unlit cigarette? What if I took a toothpick and painted it white? What if I painted it brown, and it looked like some of those european cigarettes? Would they shoot me if I didn't take it out of my mouth?" An unnamed source within the FDA, when presented with these questions, said "Yes."

XOF PRIVILEGED COMMUNICATION



We've reformed. We only listen to corrected lyrics

Pretty Woman, by Roy Orbison

Pretty woman don't walk on by
Pretty woman don't make me cry
Pretty woman don't walk away, hey, OK
If that's the way it must be, OK
I guess I'll go on home, it's late
There'll be tomorrow night, but wait
What do I see?
Is she walkin' back to me?
No, that's the police, I should flee-e-ee-e


I Wanna Hold Your Hand, by the Beatles

You'll let me hold your hand
I'll let me hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
And when I touch you I feel happy
Inside
It's such a feeling that my love
I can't hide
I better hide
I better run, ouch, damn! Stop!


Shake It Off, by Taylor Swift

I stay out too late
Got millions in the bank
That's what people say, mmm-mmm
That's what people say, mmm-mmm

Boko Haram in Nigeria has announced an alliance with ISIS (or, as they like to be called now that they've reached puberty, just IS). Far from being a little outpost terrorist-wannabe, however, they would like to be considered an equal partner in this holy marriage, so they're looking for a new and inclusive acronym. They definitely want to put the embarassment of "Daesh" behind them, that was a failed Arab acronym (is there such a thing?) that was foisted upon them by their now-fired French ad agency C'est la Vie. So, XOF is predicting (you heard it here first) that the new acronym by which the elite of world terror, this new savage supergroup, will be known, will be ISBN. You can make book on it (that's a play on "boko" see? it means "book").

Hmmm, news item:
http://www.ktvq.com/story/30559419/denv ... vandalized
"Or if it was an ignorant person who actually thought this was a bookstore for terrorists, I don't know."

Isis Books & Gifts takes its name from the Egyptian goddess of childbirth and healing.


Sooo, a change to "ISBN" is not going to help that bookstore much, will it?
