Bunch of quacks

Ok, how long was I supposed to go without mentioning this eBay auction for the X-ray of the duck? Seriously, 92 bids so far for $4599.99?

Regrettably, IBRRC reports the duck succumbed to its injuries and passed away quickly, quietly, and peacefully after the x-rays were taken, and not from the alien bursting through the duck’s chest in classic gory Hollywood style.

Some could take the use of the word “regrettably” out of context here, but I digress. And I love how they mention the existence of crop circles to help with the story.

“Cordelia’s a hot bed of alien activity,” Holcomb explained. “We’ve seen the crop circles, so it stands to reason we’d see an alien face staring out of a duck.”

Now that’s just the funniest thing I’ve read in a while. “Reason” and “alien face staring out of a duck” should never be used in the same area code.

  1. How is this Sac-related again? Because it’s an auction from Marin County? C’mon. Hardly “Local Nooz…”

  2. Ah, my bad. Should I take it down? Cordelia is in the Fairfield area which is found along the Interstate 80 roughly 40 miles away. But, yeah, sure I hear you.

    Thanks for reading!

    “GoldenPalace.com earlier paid $75,000 for Shatner’s kidney stone and the money went to Habitat for Humanity. The International Bird Rescue Research Center in Cordelia will use the $9,600 for its rescue and rehabilitation efforts.”
