Very bad, sir

Sad to report, Jeeves has been axed as the mascot of the search engine, “Ask Jeeves.” Now, instead of answering questions, here are some of the questions Jeeves may be asking, as he faces a new job -- or no job:

• You want fries with that?


• Fill ‘er up?


• Paper or plastic?


• Ketchup or mustard?


• What floor?


• Spare some change?


• Got milk?

A Dash of Special Flavor Sauce

This from Reuters:

"The cat is out of the bag at a restaurant in northeast China that had been serving donkey meat spiked with tiger urine in pricey dishes advertised as endangered Siberian tigers."

" ...the so-called tiger meat was donkey meat that had been dressed with tiger urine to give the dish a 'special flavor.' "

Diners should have been tipped off by the menu listings:

• Endangered Siberian Tiger (not really) with udon(key)


• Moo shu Ass (w/ 4 barf bags)


• Peking Ass


• Crispy "Shrimp" in Tiger Urine


• Won ton don(key) soup


• General Tso's Ass in "Special Flavor" sauce


• Vodka mar-tinkle
