News, but not the serious kind
Does this make my butt look inky?
Good morning, comrades and fellow citizens of Cuba, this is the 8 a.m. radio news!
Blah blah blah blah may experience some shortages blah blah blah blah.
Blah blah blah good news, plenty of barbecue sauce and canned squid at great prices, so stock up for your summer squid barbecues!
Blah blah blah blah running short of toilet paper blah blah should get more by the end of the year blah blah blah. May want to go easy on the barbecued squid until then blah blah…
“Honey, that man on the radio just said we’re running out of toilet paper! Do we have any?”
“Just those novelty rolls with Fidel’s picture on them that your cousin sent us from Miami. But it would be wrong to use that! He was our president!”
“Yes, of course. But you know, maybe just a few sheets of it….”

Well, if the whole ‘wiping out poverty and corruption’ thing didn’t quite get there, maybe this is the next best thing…
I remember seeing something about novelty toiletpaper that could be customized with the buyer’s choice of picture over a decade ago…I guess it’s nice to know the buisness was successful.
I recall messages about ‘wiping out communism’ – is this what we meant?
i could use two of those – side by side – castro and of course, our home grown champion of terror – gwbush
Democracy at its worst. I think Bush is a better deserving candidate for having his face on the toilet paper.
I could ship over some toilet paoer rolls I have of either komrad obaama or klinton….
@Shyam and @nick, I don’t think that’d wise… You’d probably develop rashes!
In 2005 my cousin Dave made George W. Bush toilet paper……
I kind-of miss Dave, I wonder whatever happened to him.
@M…
Nice one…
Where can I buy the Obama stuff? Make sure he looks lovingly toward the Castro paper. We could even finish the trifecta with Hugo Chavez and have a happy family!
