Quiet Humor
Marcel Marceau died this past weekend, after outliving his art form by nearly thirty years. He’s survived by his wife, _________________, and their children, _____________ and ________________.
Marceau’s death comes after a period of declining health during which he ultimately stopped pretending to eat bananas or any other imaginary food. The last time he was seen in public, he seemed a shell of his former self, limping along an avenue in Paris with the help of an invisible cane. His health problems had long impacted his work, as audiences were underwhelmed with his “Rolling a Wheelchair in the Wind” routine.
His funeral is slated to include a nation-wide Moment of Talking, after which he’s expected to be buried in an imaginary glass box.

Correction
It has come to our attention that yesterday was not, in fact, "Walk Like a Primate" Day. Rather, it was "Talk Like a Pirate" Day.

Things You Learn From The New York Times (2)
They get us. They really get us.
"While binge drinking is a nationwide concern at colleges, the parent-notification policy faces an almost unique set of obstacles here at the University of Wisconsin. Both culture and counterculture have long conspired to tolerate, if not endorse, hearty drinking. The state’s German heritage is inextricably bound up with the brewing industry. And Madison’s history of student radicalism has often been lubricated by copious infusions of alcohol and drugs."
Police in Madison made 144 UW-Madison students go to detox in the 2006-07 academic year. I said no, no, no.
