My Own Dreer Pooson/Grass Reek Moment

I'm not sure where this should go, so I'll put it here. Yesterday one of my chemistry classes, I gave an extra credit assignment for the kids to find out about "Mole Day" (which was today).

I told them that to get information, they should do a "Gurgle sooch." What I needed after that was for Frank Nelson to drop in with a wisecrack, but he wasn't available.

Wasn't that started by the famed baker, George Cimarin?

Nowadays the minor league baseball team in Albuquerque is called the Isotopes, but they used to be the Dukes. I once heard Vin Scully refer to them as "the Albukookie Durks."

For this particular group, I suppose I should point out that the city is called
"AL-buh-kirky" not "AL-buh-kirk."

[Moose Hatrack]

AL-bu-who? Oh boss, come now! There's no such city.

I teach English and one of my colleagues once did a Drear Pooson on a Mark Twain character.

The character was Huckleberry Finn....I leave how it actually was announced to the class to your fertile imaginations.

[Chasitykins]

Huckleferry Binn?!

[Maxwell]

Yeah, I'll bet that's what it was!
