Not That Mike The Other Mike

Does My Nose Deceive Me?

(sniff, sniff) Do I detect the gentle aroma of leek and cabbage, in a delicate, savory broth? And could that be, dare I hope, chicken? (sigh) And all I get is cat food.

Invasion of the Brain Eaters!

It was on a tranquil Sunday morning when Myron Saspoot of Squid Nuts, Oregon noticed strange behavior in his dog Pembroke. Overnight, Pembroke developed a sudden interest in differential calculus and a craving for banana pancakes. Saspoot wondered if the strange object attached to Pembroke’s head might provide the key to solving the mystery…

I’m Sorry, Baby (smooch!)

I didn’t mean to make fun of your tattoo. It’s very hip and edgy, really.

Tales of the Duck Patrol

We were twenty klicks behind the lines, scouting an enemy bread depot. The air was thick with the stench of silence; every crackling blade of grass felt like an explosion in our own private hell. “Sarge, think we’ll get a medal for this?” asked Beakman. “Right now, kid,” I replied, “I’d settle for some pumpernickel.”

As the great oaken door closed behind us, we stood before the Council of Catbeards

So Many Choices, So Little Time

Lately all I can do is sit here and plan my next move. Do I backpack across Europe? Should I start that novel? Maybe finish my MFA in Interpretive Dance? People told me I could do anything, they just didn’t tell me what.

And It’s Called a “Pineapple,” You Say?

Looks kind of unwieldy, don’t it? I mean, it’s too large to fit in a pocket, but even if it did, you’ve got all these pointy things to deal with. Good luck with it, don’t get me wrong here, but I don’t think it’ll catch on with the youth market.

This stuff’s got me tripping out, baby. The whole room is, like, spinning…

Good Morning, Class…

“All right, class, just a few notes before I turn things over to your professor. Due to last week’s food fight, fish sticks will no longer be served in the cafeteria. Also, this week’s pep rally has been rescheduled to Thursday. Finally, please join me in giving a big Antarctica U welcome to our new exchange student…”
