WEENIE OF THE WEEK 2.26.10

We are proud to name as this week's Rick and Len Weenie of the Week...the 23-year-old Brown County woman who posted the sale of a 2-year-old child for $800 on the Craigslist website this week...as a joke! Turns out, she's not really a stressed-out parent, but rather, just a drunken idiot. In fact, she doesn't even have any kids!

So,

For committing the biggest hoax of the week...with the obvious exception of the health care summit.

For making us think she was really selling a baby when we should have known better... since the baby didn't even have a UPC code.

For making believe she was selling a baby for just $800 causing prices on the World Black Market Baby Index to suffer it's greatest one day lose since the time Angelina Jolie bought a 16-month-old Somali kid for $300 and a goat.

And for making a joke that wasn't even remotely funny...when BACK OFF, BITCH, THAT'S RICK'S JOB!

We are proud to name the Brown County woman who perpetrated the Craiglist baby selling hoax as this week's Rick and Len...WEENIE OF THE WEEK!

YOU'RE MONEY, BABY!

According to a FOX 11 report, somebody in the Green Bay area has been trying to sell their 2-year-old boy on Craig's List for $800.00. We, at the Rick and Len Show, would like to make that purchase.

Better we have the kid than have him left in the hands of a lousy parent that is willing to sell him. He could live in the studio and be our intern/mascot.

What would we do with him? Glad you asked!

THINGS WE COULD DO WITH A 2-YEAR-OLD ON THE RICK AND LEN SHOW.

10. Teach him to say funny things like "ass hat" and "douchebag" which sound even funnier when a 2-year-old says them.

9. Package his dirty diapers so we can literally give away boxes of crap.

8. Stuff him in a box in the attic. Release a balloon. Get tons of free publicity from CNN.

7. Put him to work in our sweat shop cranking out more Feces the Clown t-shirts.

6. Give him away as a prize during an on-air contest. Watch our ratings in the coveted 25 to 54 convicted male sex offender demographic go even higher.

5. Put him in front of a microphone as he throws a blubbering tantrum while we take the day off and see if anyone notices the difference.

4. Teach him to use the toilet instead of going in his pants. Hope and pray that Rick learns from his example.

3. Make him listen to WIXX. Wait for social services to have us charged with mistreating a child.

2. Take him to Green Bay City Hall. Watch him tower over the mayor.

1. Give him some paper and a crayon. He's gotta be able to come up with better crap than this!

SNOW 'ER NO. IT'S A GOOD TIME TO THINK ABOUT LAWN WORK!

UPTIGHT, OUT OF SIGHT!

In Colorado Springs, a billboard company has banned this poster for the Broadway show Avenue Q because it's depiction of "puppet cleavage" was deemed too sexy. Really, puppet cleavage too sexy? Here some other signs you might be too uptight!

If you get offended as frequently as Paris Hilton gets herpes...you might be too uptight.

If the panties you keep getting in a bunch are actually bloomers...you might be too uptight.

If you've pitched more fits than an entire troop of boy scouts with a porno mag have pitched tents...you might be too uptight.

If compared to you, Mother Teresa seemed like Lindsey Lohan...you might be too uptight.

If you fly off the handle as easily as Tommy Thompson flies off the wagon...you might be too uptight.

If after sticking chunks of coal up your ass, Richard Kessler returns a week later to harvest diamonds...you're definitely too uptight!

WHO SAYS HEAVY METAL AND CURLING DON'T MIX?

Surely, not Hammerfall and the Swedish Women's Olympic Curling Team!

OLYMP-ICK!

Great Britain Ice Dancers Sinead & John Kerr have been competing in Vancouver. As the song Tango Romantica fills their ears, they peer lustfully into each others' eyes, their hands softy exploring each other's bodies and their lips almost touching. The sexual chemistry in the Pacific Coliseum is so thick it could stop a truck. Which is all well and good, except... they're brother and sister.

Ick!

Do you have any idea how creepy that is? Let me put it in perspective.

That's as creepy as...

...a wet dream about Dick Cheney.

...a tramp stamp on a toddler.

...Roman Polanski hosting a slumber party.

...a wink from Richard Simmons.

...Ronald McDonald in fishnet stockings.

...a wet, sloppy tongue kiss from the Shamwow guy.

...Joe Biden's hairline.

...Tom Milbourn in Home of the Whopper underpants.

...as clown porn.

...getting fingered by Larry McCarren.

...a home furnished by Ed Gein.

...phone sex with Dr. Stephen Hawking.

WEENIE OF THE WEEK 2.19.10

We are proud to name as this week's Rick and Len Weenie of the Week...18 year old Samuel J. Bain of rural Sheboygan Falls. He's the kid who allegedly attempted to make his grandmother say he didn't have to go to school by putting a "kink" the oxygen hose on her life support system.

So,

For apparently trying to get out of school by committing an act that could get him locked up somewhere that he'll really learn some lessons.

For allegedly putting a "kink" in grandma's oxygen hose, when usually, the only time the word "kink" is used in Sheboygan Falls is when describing why the neighbor man is buying sexy panties for his pig.

And for reportedly doing something that could lead to him getting locked up with a cellmate who will show him how uncomfortable it can be to have a hose in your mouth that you can't breath through.

We are proud to name Samuel J. Bain of Sheboygan Falls as this week's Rick and Len...WEENIE OF THE WEEK!

RUBBLE TROUBLE

The President of Haiti gave an interview Monday where he said that it's going to take "1000 trucks moving rubble for 1000 days" before his country can start to rebuild. What's more, they're not sure what to do with all the rubble.




Here's our suggestions.



THINGS TO DO WITH ALL THE RUBBLE FROM HAITI

10. Fill the pot holes at the Daytona Motor Speedway.

9. Move it to Detroit where by comparison it would look like an urban renewal project.

8. Tell Tiger Woods wife the rubble cheated on her. Stand back and watch as she uses a wedge to smash it all into dust.

7. Pile it at the north end of Appleton's Skyline bridge. Tell people it's "art".

6. Convince Amy Winehouse it's crack and give her an enormous pipe.

5. Grind it to a fine powder and ship it to snow challenged Vancouver so Olympians have something to ski on.

4. I don't know but I'm pretty sure Sarah Palin has the solution written on her hand.

3. Sign it to star in sequel to hit movie Valentine's Days since a pile of rocks has the same emotional range as Ashton Kutcher.

2. Soak it in urine. Tell people it's downtown Fond du Lac.

1. Fill the largest, gaping chasm known to man before the Octomom has a chance to squeeze any more kids out of it.

Keep in mind, Haiti still needs our help! One quick, painless way to help is by texting. You can make a $10 donation to the Red Cross by texting the word "Haiti" to the number 90999. Your donation will be simply added to your monthly cell phone bill.

HELP THE CHEYENNE RIVER SIOUX

The need for assistance on the Cheyenne River Reservation grows each day as the temperature continues to drop well below freezing. After suffering devastating ice-related storms over the weekend of January 22, 2010, electricity and water have been non-existent or scarce. Over 2,500 utility poles are currently on the ground in this remote, rural area. Power has been out in several communities and for thousands of residents for several days. Below zero temperatures and no electricity, heat, water or gasoline has created devastating results.

SIGNS AND STUFF FROM NEW ORLEANS

Here's a few images from my trip to New Orleans last week.

This is not the sign you want to see when checking into your hotel...



Actually, that was a sign I encountered at the Audubon Insectarium. They have over 300,000 bugs and a pretty good sense of humor as evidenced by the beautiful tile work in the men's room shown here...



In case you were wondering, yes, those are dung beetles! On the bathroom walls. Perfect! Speaking of dung, here's another sign, I saw around town a lot on my first couple days in The Big Easy...



On the back of this poster was a paraphrased quote from Pulp Fiction. "And you will know we are the Saints when we lay our vengeance upon thee." I'm not sure who the Saints were avenging by slaying Favre in the NFC Championship game, but if it was Packer fans, I guess we owe them some thanks.

Saw this next sign in Jackson Square...



Just a tip, here. If you want prospective customers to believe you are an all knowing psychic, perhaps knowing how to spell psychic would help!

And finally, I saw this poster taped to the back of a street sign in the French Quarter...



'Nuff said.

THE THONG IS DEAD...LONG LIVE THE THONG!

"The thong is dead"
Cosmopolitan magazine reports.
Fallen victim to the less revealing,
lingerie called "boy shorts".

Since the 1980's, the thong,
with it's dainty French cut,
has been exciting millions of men…
and flossing even more butts.

The g-string, the t-back,
call it what you will.
The thong first found popularity
On the beaches of Brazil.

And from South America
the thong started creeping-up further north.
Which is, if nothing else,
an appropriate metaphor.

But comfort was never the reason
for a woman to wear one of those things.
That are nothing more than a couple small pieces of cloth
attached to a coarse, irritating string.

Its simple design gave many a wearer a rash
on her womanhood.
While giving even more men
a really bad case of wood.

Now, after 2 decades of proving
that less can be more.
The thong is going the way of bloomers and spats,
parachute pants and peignoirs.

So, now we bid farewell to the thong.
They'll soon be in short supply.
So, if you are a butt man,the time has come
to kiss your ass goodbye!
