The Weekend Desk Report

You'd better read these reports while you can. It looks like there's a 50/50 chance we'll all be treading water by September.

Market Update
Mortgage lending groups this week announced they would no longer accept payment in 10W-40 as no one can afford it. They will still accept payment in corn, however. At least, this month they will.

End of an Era
It appears our much-loved Triumvirate of Terror may be history as key axis member Britney Spears shocks the world with a reconciliation few thought they would ever live to see.

Recycled Joke of the Week
Flush with pride at solving one major international crisis, President Bush announced he is now "totally ready" to fix the Middle East, "for reals" this time.

Community Policing
Chicago Police Superintendent Jody Weis this week announced plans to increase police presence on city streets in an attempt to eliminate criminal elements. Not wishing to be outdone, Chicago Transit Authority Chairman Ron Huberman this week announced plans to increase train presence to the Loop in an attempt to eliminate problem customers.

Clinbama Rising
Do you see how they've coordinated their pantsuits? And so it begins.

Finally...
And in other news, duh.
