NOTE FROM CARL:
Top 5 WTF recently posted its 100th list.
It’s still fun… we’re still smiling…

We’d See Before We Could Get

7> Filthy Ruminations list replaces the Bill of Rights.

6> “Glitter II.”

5> Receiving those naked pics of the “Babes of Little Fivers” calendar in my inbox.

4> Sufficiently drastic climate change to prompt a wave of attacks by penguin terrorists.

3> Pope Huckabee.

2> Queen Elizabeth II’s “40 Ounces To Freedom” tramp-stamp tattoo.
