The world in 100 years ... Oh, perish the thought Former President, Ronald Dump, who was cryogenically frozen following his assassination after winning the ‘No Bull’ Peace Prize in December 2018, has been successfully defrosted. Ronald Dump recently defeated his son, former President Barrrrron Van Dump, in the lunar by-election. President Dump will be taking up his forty year term at his office-in-the-round penthouse suite at ‘Lunar-Tic Towers’. This magnificent golden palace-like structure is situated on the fringes of the 29th bunker on the dark side of the moon. Naturally, it is a member’s only golf club and entry is strictly by special invitation only. It will be staffed by scantily costumed Honey-Bunny girls and models who the Dump handpicks. They will attend to every need and whim of his guests, unless he requires their expertise "handling." President Dump will be supported by his android wife, Argenta, (humanoid model number 3060 with real hair and life-like body parts) who superseded the old model 'Milionairluva', who sadly could not be revived due to silicon and botox poisoning which ran rampantly throughout her Barbie doll body The Lunar-Tic Towers will be totally off limits to the paparazzi so there can be no photographs taken of the Irn Bru brewing facility of his favourite drink which was banned in Scotland. He seeks to insure that no "fake news" stories are leaked by the press. In his bid to tackle rising unemployment, currently standing at 99.6%, Dump will be advised by his new best friend and strategist, Kym Dung Hung Lo. This humanitarian almost obliterated the human race by detonating a nuclear warhead at the Dung Hung Lo Toy Factory which was caused when Dung Hung Lo threw his dolly out of the pram. So impressed by such a move, Dump hired him and invited Dung Hung Lo to be his number 2 to succeed him. May God bless the earth, what little is left of her .. she needs all the help she can get with these two lunar tics in charge 6/1/18 100 year Contest sponsored by Brian Davey

Jan, you took home the second-place trophy in this contest, while I took home the third-place prize. So, WE TRY HARDER!! (That's what they used to say about those companies which got the 2nd and 3rd highest percentage of market share in the USA)… But we really do! Congrats to you!!!!! :) :) gw

Jan, I believe that if he could make this come true, then it would happen something near to what you have described. The crazy rich are planning their get-away.

Yes Jan, we are a nation quite divided as never before and that is sad for all Americans as our strength is in our numbers in "united we stand, divided we fall". You managed to make me laugh with your clever humor! I hope this makes the winner's list! : )

I intended for it to be tongue in cheek humour, so glad it made you smile. I know it will not be to everyone's taste and appreciate that the sponsor may not like it but I take my chance:-) hugs Jan xx
