has all the money on the entire planet.
10> If you think there are too many idiots shouting "Show me the
money!" on every occasion now, just wait.
9> Rush Limbaugh takes his self-affection to a whole new level,
and suddenly is IN FAVOR of same-sex marriages.

& Penn" much harder to fit on comedy club marquee.
7> And you think it's hard to find your size now!
6> 18-month waiting list for George Clooney and Cindy Crawford

5> "Alternative" radio filled with even more Nirvana clones.
4> And the final score: the New York Gretzkys - 408, the
Pittsburgh Lemieuxs - 399.
3> Can no longer count on the Grim Reaper to get Jesse Helms out
of office.
2> Those apocalyptic words: "Ladies & Gentlemen: The John Tesh
Philharmonic Orchestra!"
and the Number 1 Potential Problem With Cloning Humans...
