NEWS OF SCIENCE AND MEDICINE BY OUR SCIENCE REPORTER Dr. Mel E. Levine:
I auditioned for "Show Time at the
Apollo" but apparently they're either not producing it any longer or my comedy was "too
white" for them or something, but I never heard back. I thought I did really well. On the
scientific front, there is good news and bad news. THE GOOD NEWS: A study in the journal
SCIENCE states that because of advances in medicine, people may live to be 130 years old
or more. THE BAD NEWS: Strom Thurmond is only 97. --MEL
WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T LET HER SING
Nasal-voiced
Laura Ingraham is suddenly being touted (by her press agents) as a political
analyst.
Asked about her qualifications for the role of political analyst, Ms. Ingraham said something, but the reporter assigned to the interview was unable to
hear her answer when the sound of her voice made his eardrums bleed, causing
temporary deafness. Untrue News has learned that Ingraham's voice is registered
with the Washington D.C. police as a lethal weapon.
AND IF SHE WERE TWINS, SHE'D BE TWICE
AS GOOD
Discussing
her decision to appear topless in her upcoming film Swordfish, Halle Berry told the
showbiz publication Daily Variety, "Maybe you don’t want to see me naked, but it is
not about that. It’s about what I want and whether this role will challenge me."
Asked if everything on earth was about her, Berry nodded modestly. Later Berry
claimed her statement "Maybe you don't want to see me naked" was meant as humor.
"Who wouldn't want to see me naked?" she laughed.
DONUT GETS FROSTED
Hitchhiker Ron Romano, dressed as a
donut, told our photographer he didn't understand why he wasn't getting his hoped
for ride. "I've been standing here with my thumb out for seven hours" said Romano.
"I'm ready to give up and take the bus."
PEOPLE SEE FACE OF JESUS IN UNTRUE
NEWS AD
People have been flooding our
phone lines and email to tell us that if they click on a certain Untrue News
sponsor, they see the face of Jesus. We can't tell you which sponsor, as we are not
allowed to solicit your clicks. Hey, we don't even know if it's true or not. Enough

This issue of McGuffin's Untrue News is
sponsored by: THE McGUFFIN
MINT.
Ever since it stopped being illegal to deface
government coins, we have been offering these investment quality coins to collectors.
Most private mints and coin dealers offer standard red white and blue colorized
versions of US Coins, but we go one better. We offer coins which have been hand dipped
in green paint! We don't just color parts of the coin, we color the ENTIRE COIN. What's
more, our coins are not limited to the collector coins issued by the mint to make a
profit. We use coins right out of circulation, pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters
that you might find in your purse or pocket right now.
That's what makes this offer so exciting! If you
were to buy a colorized Sacadajawa or however the hell you spell it dollar, you'd pay
at least $19.95, a whopping 20 times above face value! Not at the McGuffin Mint. We
sell these hand dipped coin specimens for far less. For example, one hundred hand
dipped pennies for only ten dollars. One hundred hand dipped nickels for only fifty
dollars, or ten times face value! You can't beat a deal like this at any coin store for
three times the price.
Order now, and we'll sell your name
to every sucker list in the world, especially if you think you understand the previous
sentence. That's our promise to you for prompt ordering. Ask for Total Color Coins,
specify pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters or dollars. Minimum order 100 coins. Enclose
ten times face value plus $29.95 shipping and handling. We'll do the rest.
