Battle Of Hot: Chrisco Woman vs. Mrs Christmas
Dean
There are age-old
questions man has sought the answer to for generations. Why is the sky
blue? Is there a cure for the common cold? What happens when the new car
number plates get up to FUK? And immediately following Christmas 2004,
a new question was thrust into the New Zealand national consciousness
harder than Michael Jackson’s penis being thrust into Macauly Culkin.
This question was as follows:
Who is hotter? Mrs Christmas, or that woman off the Chrisco ads?

Down Down Down, Down To Syndrome Town
Cam
Via my research I have come to realize a very important fact about people with Down Syndrome: They do not use, nor are allowed to handle money, in particular coins (You have never seen a person with Down Syndrome with a coin. Ever.) I guess one would firstly assume that this is because of the common knowledge that a person with Down Syndrome (herein referred to as 'downs') issimilar to a blackbird, which is attracted to anything shiny. To explain the 'downs' not being allowed to handle coins: As money is both shiny and small enough to fit into ones mouth, 'downs' have been barred from handling coinage due to public fear of mass 'downs' choking. As the 'downs' would undoubtedly suck on their precious golden coins in a vain effort to obtain the precious 'Power Of The Obia' they believe is hidden within.
