Must be an evil genius behind that minion: Some parents buying Happy Meals at McDonald’s are complaining that the toy inside, which promotes the new animated movie, “Minions,” curses in at least two of its recorded phrases, though McDonald’s insists that the little odd-looking yellow creatures are only speaking gibberish.
It’s the second time in recent weeks a problem has been revealed with foul-mouthed phrases, though the Republican Party insists the odd-looking yellow-topped Donald Trump is only speaking gibberish.
Stop moving; I’m trying to count: A Sultan nudist club is taking part today in a nationwide attempt to break the world record of 13,764 people skinny dipping at the same time. The Sultan club had 117 people bare and grin when the current record was set in 2009.
If it helps maintain one’s modesty you can close your eyes, but at least one of the skinny-dippers is going to have to count. But anything more than two recounts are we’re going to get suspicious.
It’s OK. My mom’s in the back, napping: Republicans in Congress have proposed dropping the legal age for driving tractor-trailers across state lines from 21 to 18.
You know, all of a sudden, we’ve had a change of heart about all that train traffic rolling through town. It doesn’t sound so bad after all.
