This column is not a pun by any stretch. It’s also not an attempt to duplicate The Onion, America’s finest news source. However, we read The Onion, whose current lead story states: Congress allocates $2 trillion to bail out struggling bailout industry.” (We believe every word)
Due to the current State of the Union, The Icon invites viewers to submit jokes, puns, funny stories and anything else that offers a five-second chuckle.
Had an interesting chat with Old Man Bluffton recently in Twisted Whisk.
He's the guy who sort of runs the town, or thinks he does. After all, it is his town.
Years ago he retired to warmer climes, and shows up in Bluffton announced, usually during the holidays to pick up on gossip and peanut brittle at the Senior Center.
He still think Larry Core is village administrator and I’m not about to straighten him out.
As expected, he did most of the talking, but then, when Old Man Bluffton talks, people listen.
