* I’m running a little slow today and waiting on some info, so let’s go to the question now and we’ll get back to the stories in a bit.
Some naughty little person has started a fake Speaker Madigan Twitter page. Here are a few recent posts…
# I could really go for an apple right now. But I won’t. It’s not apple time.
# Can’t anyone around here keep their eyes open for at least two minutes at a time?
# I win again.
# I win.
# I’m bored. Who wants to have a staring contest?
* The Question: Can you come up with more entries for Madigan’s fake Twitter page? Snark is, of course, heavily encouraged.
Have fun.

When a man’s an empty kettle,
He should be on his mettle,
And yet I’m torn apart.
Just because I’m presumin’
That I could be kind-a human
If I only had a heart.

As God is my witness, as God is my witness they’re not going to lick me. I’m going to live through this and when it’s all over, I’ll never be hungry again. No, nor any of my folk. If I have to lie, steal, cheat or kill. As God is my witness, I’ll never be hungry again!
