WEEKENDER: "Final Days" Humor

The Martin Chronicles can tell Villa Hills residents are still giddy about now-outgoing Mayor Mike Martin's voter-mandated exit from their City Building. How do we know? Because our reporters are hearing a series of one-liners and jokes all over town.

"What's worse than Mike Martin's Election Day vote totals. Nothing!"

"Did you know that Mike Martin is the only mayor who had his official portrait done by a police sketch artist?"

"What do Mike Martin and Cub Scout Pack 533 have in common? They are both preparing to take a hike soon."

In an homage to Johnny Carson's famous Karnac the Magnificent:
"The answer is -Big Ben, Andy Dalton, and Mike Martin's campaign promises."
"The question is - Name a clock, a jock and a crock."

"Martin, McMurtry and Bohman were rounded up by a mob of angry Villa Hills residents. The mob lined the trio up against the public works building to face a firing squad. McMurtry distracted the mob by yelling 'EARTHQUAKE!' and escaped in to the woods. The firing squad composed themselves and prepared to carry out their assignment. Then Bohman yelled 'TORNADO!' and used the momentary distraction to dive in to the frigid safety of Lake General Zod. The firing squad lined up again and began, 'READY', 'AIM'. . . Finally figuring out what his 'associates' had done to temporarily distract the riflemen, Martin yelled 'FIRE!'  . . . "


40 days to go.
