The team was then unfortunately eaten by a two-headed gnat the size of the Sears Tower. In the spirit of competition, a tribe of Pygmies volunteered to take over as Congo's Olympic basketball team. Congo went on to win the Silver medal through forfeit despite losing on the -- court by an average margin of 1286-7. The Congo's seven points occurred on maniacal fast breaks in which the Pygmies mounted boars and would throw pottery filled with their fingemail clippings. The forfeits occurred in the fourth period of each contest when the Pygmies would start a rain dance and the opposition would be struck in the" head by lightning, severely decreasing their_ ability to execute the motion offense, not to mention dribbling, passing, rebounding, urinating, and communicating with other L11 members of their species verbally. The gold medal game was played against the Russians. The Soviets were not affected by the 60,000 volts of electricity from the lightning bolts due to surgically- implanted steel plates in the head of each player. The new Time-Life book series is called "People Who Have Been Seriously Injured During Do-It-Yourself Home Repairs By Mysterious Forces of the Supematural, Supposedly Spawned by the Old West and Resurrected in World War Two." An amalgamation of all previous Time-Life books, there are interesting stories, such as a dog-bite victim who caused his Doberman brain damage by fixing the remote to his TV, pointing it at his dog's head, and constantly pressing the channel for "Hogan's Heroes" while country music was playing. Or, the story of a woman who belched while emptying her dishwasher at exactly the same instant her identical twin sister was killed by a buffalo stampede in Brooklyn. Then there's the story of how a man in Australia had nothing to do with an incident in Alaska on D-Day but was wearing a cowboy hat, a wrench, and nothing else. And the fact that General Rommel was really a cowgirl who was aided by a mystical set of screwdrivers from ancient Greece. Jane Fonda, stripped naked and covered in mayonnaise, was arrested in the Arb, skipping while chanting, "Stop war, stop hate, stop taking tags off mattresses." Ms. Fonda said she was trying to prove that she and Tom Hayden are, in fact, the same person. Ted Tumer was available for comment No one cared. 9 0 060 0 Mr. Monroe defeated all of his opponents in a similar manner, forcing the World Toughman Championship No Rules Committee to announce handguns were completely legal under their lack of bylaws. The reason: to prevent any false advertisement suits due to the "Anything Goes" promotional campaign. Mr. Monroe was quoted as stating, "Yippee for me." Mr. Arduini was unavailable for comment. In Texas, Pat Robertson developed a new sex education plan for elementary schools. Thethrustofthe plan was to educate children that sex is bad, will give them cancer, and damn them to eternal hell. Mr. Robertson says this method is quite effective, citing that he has no children. Ted Tumer was again available for comment, but the media were busy covering news of fantastic breakthroughs in the field of lawncare. A surprise out of the World Toughman Championships held in Las Vegas. A relative unknown, 98-pounder Lyle "Helen" Monroe defeated 385-pounder Joseph "Gorilla Eater" Arduini in the championship match. Mr. Monroe defeated Mr. Arduini by shooting him in the head twelve times with a.357 magnum right after the bell sounded in the championship contest. = ! ' SzewCbuai W est : Cocktails Dining .

Apparently Mr. Richards had not moved for three months, not even to get beer or cigarettes. Coroners pronounced him dead at the scene when they observed he wasn't changing the channel on the television. This was unusual for Mr. Richards, as it was stuck on the Discovery channel. Mr. Richards, 75, was found by his wife of ten minutes, model Ellen "Darth" Vader, 11. Mr. Richards has been recently upset with accusations that he is one of the living dead. Mr. Richards was preparing to cite elements of his non-cannibalistic lifestyle as proof against reports made in People magazine last month. An examination of photographs taken at the scene by his twelve former wives helped the authorities determine that Mr. Richards was indeed alive at the time of his alleged death. The twelve were forced to miss a day of high school for the funeral. It seems that the supposed corpse, clad only in purple sequined jockey shorts, had an erection at the time of discovery. All of the ex-Mrs. Richards agreed that Mr. Richards was not dead since his [CENSORE D]is his most vital organ. Police claimed that initially the erection was thought to be early signs of rigor mortis. After Mr. Richards was exhumed, he stated that he had decided to devote his life to performance art, and at the time of his supposed death was pretending to be a plate of cold cuts at a bridge party. Mr. Richards later divorced his wife of four months and ate her. t 0 t a (A Ig w Q x z 0 VI 4* 0 0 m r f- d 4' (3 'U N " *1 0 4 d mU h S J "E d 0 dA fC Si 50% Off Student Til One Day 0 Saturday, Sepi 10'aa m. -3 p.m; Hill Auditoriu Take 50% off selected tickets t4 Auditorium, Rack and the Pov Make Your T Today with I The Chicago .Isaac Stern, Canadian B many more.
