That hand looks like it was guest-drawn by the ghost of Dick Locher.

Again a very likpatous story

I was just about to link that exact video in response until I quoted this post and saw the url already attached to the image.

My favorite part is during the commentary for that sketch, they mentioned it was also kind of a joke on the audience because the audience had to sit there the entire time they were putting the thimbles back on the shelves before the sketch could continue, and you can definitely hear the laughter getting weaker each time he knocks them over.

It sounds to me like Encyclopedia should just not solve the riddle and let the money go to charity. Unless this is some sort of double fake out and the real will says "Sorry you idiots still aren't getting the money, it's still all going to charity."

Richard's Poor Almanac



Lauch Faircloth was a right-wing senator from North Carolina who made himself unpopular in DC by meddling in home rule issues. (Under the Constitution, Congress is supposed to govern the federal district; while Congress allows DC residents to elect their own mayor and council, they can -- and do -- overrule decisions made by the city government. Stuff like legalizing pot, expanding LGBTQ partner rights, and setting up clean needle exchanges has had to struggle through interference from Congressfolks who don't live here and don't particularly give a poo poo about the city.)

Has Monty been a scientist this entire time? My first thought was that this was a one-off gag, but it actually would make a lot of sense even if it was under referenced. By contrast, I know Moondog is an art museum guard because gags involving the art museum come up reasonably often.

The page saying "hey do you want to buy this?" is still a website itself, which will be bulk hosted by someone who definitely won't want excess traffic driving up the typically nil cost of keeping an advertisement up just in case someone wants to buy forum77.com from them.

Huh. I see that now, but when I looked at it before I didn't get anything at all. It just didn't load. Might have something to do with my using my phone instead of the computer this time. Didn't have to do the captchas either.
