Funny of the Week [by Dipsy Doodle]

And the finalists are. . .:

(1) "[Hillary] Clinton's newfound populism sounds sincere. . ." from The Nation, May 4, 2015. Pray tell: How does one measure the sound of sincerity?

(2) "Wanted: One Night Stand." This classified ad was rejected by Valley Metro of Phoenix, Arizona, which bans sexually explicit material. The ad was placed by a consignment-store chain representing a woman who is looking for a night stand for her bed.

(3) The "National Sleep Foundation" endorses machine-washable "My Pillow," with 10-year guarantee! When you buy one, Mike will give a second one free! Look up "National Sleep Foundation" and "Corleone" on your favorite search engine and see what happens!

Radio

I left it
on when I
left the house
for the pleasure
of coming back
ten hours later
to the greatness
of Teddy Wilson
"After You've Gone"
on the piano
in the corner
of the bedroom
as I enter
in the dark


from New and Selected Poems by David Lehman
