There Once Was Girl From Nantucket....

After a couple of days of R & R the Grand Poo Ba returned to his post in the Poor Bastard World Headquarters command center only to find a number of interesting musings from around The Kingdom...

First up from Austin, TX Larry Rone, Poor Bastard Emeritus and the holder of a lifetime chair on the High Council of the Fraternal Order of the Poor Bastard, reports that after 80 years of research nobody has been able to confirm ever seeing an ostrich with their head stuck in the sand...


Poor Bastard Limerick of the Day...

Another entertaining barb also comes to us from a faithful patron in the Great State of Texas in the form of a Poor Bastard Limerick of the Day.  

The Gazette would like to thank Beverly K. Ross-Keith for the following ditty...

There once was a pervert named Weiner
Who had a perverted demeanor
Forced from the Hill
For acting like Bill
Now Congress is one wiener leaner.


The Joke is on You, Sarah...

And not to be denied her rightful spot at the top of the Poor Bastard attention-whore food chain, Sarah Palin, the Duel-Qualifier Poor Bastardette who still seems to think that  SIXTY MILLION fellow Poor Bastard's might actually vote for her if she runs for President, has started clamoring about an upcoming  documentary in which a number of prominent Hollywood glitterati types have apparently made the beleaguered Palin the brunt of countless jokes and partisan jabs....

Palin, seen here unable to figure out that the joke is on her!










It seems that the Revisionist Poor Bastard Palin does not like being made fun of by people who themselves possess enough celebrity appeal to actually draw a crowd and thereby have successfully made her the subject of public ridicule...

Which just goes to show that it's hard to take a joke, when you are one!


To Catch a True Poor Bastard...

And last but certainly not least is the hot off the wire report that NBC's Chris Hansen, the squeaky-clean hero of the network's "To Catch a Predator" series may have fallen victim to the old "hidden camera" routine himself....

 The National Enquirer - where all Poor Bastards turn for the the latest celebrity news - is reporting that they have surveillance video of Hansen and a West Palm hottie by the name of Kristyn Caddell wining, dining and shacking it up at Caddell's West Palm Beach apartment! Caddell, a news anchor for the local NBC affiliate WPTV, is described in the National Enquirer story as a "sexy blonde young enough to be his daughter!"

True Poor Bastard Chris Hansen is seen here in better form as he dresses down a would-be internet sex-pervert, who has fallen prey to Hansen's own version of made for prime-time TV video surveillance television, on the popular Dateline: NBC program To Catch a Predator...





Well, oh well...oh well...oh well...oh well!.......What have we here?

Yet another unfortunate True Poor Bastard from among the ranks of TV's glitterati who, after making a semi-career out of finger-pointing and calling the kettle black, now finds himself among the unfortunate ranks of those who have fallen from grace due to nothing more than their own hubris and lack of self-discipline!

And "...young enough to be his daughter..." on top of everything else!

I'll bet Mrs. Hansen was absolutely thrilled to hear that!
