AS THE TRACTOR BURNS
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
The Characters:
Raul: played by Jim Varney
Esmerelda: played by Roseanne
I.M. Gilty: played by O.J. Simpson
Howard Stern: played by Barney the Dinosaur
Al Rightithen: played by Jim Carrey
Buffy: played by Princess Di
The Evil Taxi Driver (Batman): played by Beldin
Last week on ATTB, we discovered the cause of Batman...picking up women
(isn't that the case with most superheroes though?) Howard asked the
blonde receptionist to go out with him...to which she replied, "Sure!
I'll go out with you....is your last name Gfot?"
At the theater, Howard is impatiently waiting for his friends to tell him
how to answer the blonde receptionist's question...because he doesn't have
a brain to figure it out himself...
Howard: What should I say?? I've been on the phone for a week, and you
guys haven't told me what to say yet!! Should I tell her my last name is
Gfot?
I.M.: I don't know...Buffy, do you know?
Buffy: Listen, for all I care you can tell her you have purple hair and
a blue mustache! Just leave me alone!
Esmerelda: Get a green tattoo.
Buffy: Um...ok...
Howard: But should I tell her my last name is Gfot? Is it a good thing
or a bad thing?
Raul: I really don't care, Howard...tell her whatever you want to tell her.
Receptionist: Well?? Is your last name Gfot?
Howard: Um...er...uh...yeah, my last name is Gfot.
Receptionist: It is?? Marry me! I wanna have your last name!
Howard: Marry you? Sure! screaming HEY GUYS!! I JUST GOT ENGAGED!
Meanwhile, in the taxi...
Al: But what does this mean about my Presidential campaign? I am
running for president, you know.
Taxi Driver: Hmmm...this is a problem. Well, let's not worry about that
right now...let's worry about getting you a superhero costume.
Al: Ooh! Do I get a cape and everything?
Taxi Driver: Of course you get a cape! All superheroes get capes!
Al: What color?
Taxi Driver: You get to pick that.
Al: Cool! I want a pink & purple one!
Join us next time...or not...

**Do you have one of those questions that keeps you up at night,
wondering? Ask the Wise Sage! Email eener@juno.com with your question
Dear Wise Sage(tm),
What is a "Sage"? Why are they called "Sages"? What does that have to do
with the sage plant? Y'know, I like sage incense.. only really good kind,
though, but that doesn't matter, really. Actually, there's sage in my
shampoo, too. So, does this mean that I have wise shampoo? Does using
wise shampoo make my head more wise?
-Confused about sage and Sages.
Dear Confused,
In last week's issue, I revealed that "Sage" was derived from the name of
a strange type of Eggplant found in Tasmania, the SageEggplant. This may
come as a shock to you, but the ingredient "sage" in your shampoo, is
actually eggplant. Overuse of thiat shampoo may cause your hair to turn
purple. The shampoo will only cause you to become wiser if you find a way
to get the purple out of your hair.
Wise Sage
Dear Wise Sage,
I've been wondering. Why are the big bags you store garbage in black?
Why not for instance neon red?
Signed, Teemu M{ki
Dear Teemu,
The Garbage Bag Foundation (GBF) was able to purchase a large amount of
black dye at a very low price. Calculating the current number of garbage
bag users times the number of boxes used per month....the black dye won't
run out until the year 3014. I have heard the rumor that they were
offered some neon red dye, but didn't accept the offer, due to the idea
that the garbage bags might enrage bulls in Spain.

Just about fell over when I (melvan) found this in my mailbox on
Tuesday...it's been a while since we heard anything from Potato Land.
Dear Editors:
It's early in the morning here in Potato Land, and I am alive. Just
wanted to check in with you and all the readers. This is a subliminal
attempt to get you to vote for my column in the Best of FME. So if you
read that last sentence before going on to this one, you know what you
have to do.

Well, anyway it's nice to have a moment to write and say hi.
I wish to thank you editors and all you people out there who so sorely
miss reading Postcards from Potato Land for inspiring my second book
title. Rather than contributing to FME over the past few months, I have
been right here at my computer screen compiling about 220 pages of classic
literature which is sure to make the New York Times Bestseller list. And
guess what I named it. Yup, you got it. Postcards from Potato Land will
be out in March if all goes well. So pass the word around the world and
when I make my millions, I'll invite all FME subscribers to my house here
in beautiful North Potato Land for a baked potato party. In the meantime,
remember me when you vote.
