News Broadcast

Welcome to our broadcast,
We're glad that you've tuned in.
We'll tell you all the latest news,
Come on now, let's begin.

Andy allegedly yanked off
Wacky Wendy's wig.
It caused Wendy to screech and scream,
While Andy danced a jig.
Police weren't able to catch him,
But they did locate the wig.
Andy allegedly placed it
On Farmer Fred's pig.

Curvy Carla caused a pile up,
Late one afternoon.
She took a stroll, bikini clad,
And caused some men to swoon.
The men were treated at the scene,
For hyperventilation.
Curvy Carla got a ticket,
For excessive titillation.

That's all the news we have right now.
We'll be back when we've more to tell.
Thank you again for tuning in.
By golly, you've all been swell!

this IS Zany. I especially liked the middle stanza on that Curvy Carla! (my son once wrecked into someone for oggling a girl on the sidewalk!)
