JUST PRESS THE START BUTTON IF YOU WANT TO HEAR THE MUSIC….
the song is "this is the army mr. jones" and it sort of goes with the true tale
below about united states army recruiters.

****THIS IS WHERE YOU
CAN FIND WHAT PRESIDENT BUSH IS DOING….MR. BUSH
****THIS IS THE ARMY,
MR. JONES, BUT WE ARE TOO BUSY TO RECRUIT YOU….we left this picture blurred
because we didn't want to embarrass these loafers more than necessary. they are recruiters who just stand outside their shop's
door for hours, just watching the girls go by. someone
should call the government accountability office to find out why these
sergeants are not out getting recruits.
****NEW YORKERS WANT
THEIR COPS HOME FROM THE WAR….staff sgt. james mcnaughton is the first
new
york city policeman killed in action in iraq. he
was one of the 273 members of the nypd who are on
military duty. should our city have its much
needed cops off at a war? citizens are saying that
they belong here. this is a new twist in growing
anti-war sentiment.
****SEX OFFENDERS TO BE
BANNED FROM CITY SWIMMING POOLS….no one is quite sure how they are going to
enforce this idea, but you got to admit that for someone who likes to look
at flesh, what better place than a pool.

at parks, theaters, ball games.
****SPEAK NEW YAWK
(people will wonder at your sophistication)…."toomel"
a noisy chaos, like being in nyc.

are unaware that they are being watched by a certain taxi driver. new ones are added from time to time. take a peep at SNEAKY
****YENTA YACK FROM THE
BACK OF THE HACK (what they are talking about in the yellow mobile
conveyance lounge)….do you wear underwear? this
comes about because "national underwear day" happens this week on

EATS
****JASON BLAIR AWARD
(for the worst journalism during the previous week)….given to all the new york
city media for trying to make a connection between the london bomber wearing a "new york" city sweatshirt as a
coded message to new york based bombers. the idea came from david cohen, nypd deputy
commissioner of intelligence, a former central intelligence agency bigwig. several years ago when we suggested that cohen doesn't play with a full deck, he sent new york
city police detectives to try to scare us. he did.
