Be sure not to miss this week's program. Courtney is finally going to blow the lid off the Fablo scandals!

I'll be there! We'll all be there. But I'll be first in line to see the blowing off of the lid.

There is an air of suspense about tonight's impending Fablo disclosures. Courtney will conduct a full press briefing tomorrow. This is Page One Above-the-Fold stuff!
Avatar 10:50am
Lolabelle Pancake:

Tonight's guest commercial announcers will be Gus and Euneeda Bodenheim. Technically they're not "guests" because they are now featured regularly, but they do not live in the Codger's poutin' shanty, so they have to sign the Guest Register when they arrive for their cameos.

However, they only had to be fingerprinted on their first visit.

And I still can't get the ink off! I followed all the Reader's Digest tips and soaked my hands in a slurry of milk, toothpaste, and hairspray for eight hours, with no luck—except for the strangely tasty yogurt.

Hello Lolabelle. Welcome Gus & Euneeda, I crawled under the shanty a few weeks back to see if there was any truth to the Codger carrying around an acorn to stay forever young. Found squat 'n' got stuck. Still fishing chicken bones outta my hair.
