SCHOLARS SAY NOSTRADAMUS PREDICTED PRESIDENTS DAY MATTRESS SALES

A new theory, proposed at the annual History of American Folklore Conference this week, asserts that legendary seer and mystic Nostradamus predicted the future existence of President Day sales, in particular the "selling of mattresses at great discounts" to a "future republic of states between coasts". Nostradamus also predicted that such sales will be the "greatest legacy of the Presidents Lincoln and Washington", whose exact birthdays will eventually be forgotten "like keys to an old condo".


Nostadamus, known as "Lefty" to his bowling buddies, also predicted many other future events, inventions and people in his remarkable seer career, including Pop Tarts ("Popptaarts"), Peter Frampton ("Petra Frizzyhairdampton"), Alpo ("Halpoe"), Woodstock ("Boomerama"), the Lilith Fair concerts ("Tickedoffchicks Faire in Square"), Lindsay Lohan ("Lowsay Lowhand"), the cellphone ("celular telegraph"), Coke ("Sugarwaater"), Google ("Goggle giant, really reliant -- be you compliant or be you defiant?"), Yahoo ("Yippee and Yahoo! I shall tell you true -- yours truly hath laid my chaste chambermaid"), and sex in airplanes ("Mile Hight Cluuubb, for lovers of danger, and those who don't worship that guy from the manger").

CHENEY WARNS OF MORE SHOOTING TO COME; WILL GO GUNNING FOR OTHER "FRIENDS" WHO "OWE ME MONEY"

"If you owe me dough, you better blow", warned Dick "Shooter" Cheney today, finally breaking his silence about shooting a dear hunting buddy while quail hunting. The Vice President offered a one day grace period for "friends and Democrats" to settle any unpaid debts with him, otherwise he will come gunning for them "come this weekend".

As for why he shot a man who was so close to him, and who apparently was in the process of getting a five out of his wallet to pay back the Veep, Mr. Cheney chuckled and said, "I thought he was Quayle".
