Monoblogue by Neil Berliner: Facebook Status: “Spare a Kidney, Bro?

December 22, 2009 by Stage Time Magazine 

MonoblogueSome lucky guy is getting a transplanted kidney after asking for one on Facebook. Ha! Not one of my 1,256 Facebook friends would even respond to, “Hey, I just landed in L.A. Anyone know a good Thai place?”

Sol Price, who founded Price Club, has died at 93. But he unfortunately got turned away at the Pearly Gates — didn’t have a membership card. And, no, they wouldn’t even give him a tiny sample.

Senate Republicans delayed the health care debate for a day when they insisted that a 767-page amendment be read out loud. Democrats drew the line and refused to allow what would have been a three day delay — to have Dubya or Sarah Palin try to read it.

Speaking of Bush, many of his missing e-mails have finally been recovered. On December 13, 2006 for instance, he apparently requested, “a brand new pony and a green Power Ranger, pretty please with a cherry on top.” (Thanks for sending that in, Santa; we can’t wait to read the rest!)

So, have ya heard the one about Phil Mickelson? Me neither!

But everybody, please get off Tiger’s case — he actually helped my golf game big time with his nutrition regimen, the Tiger Woods Diet: legs, breasts, mostly white meat. Well, it helped at least for those three days before I cheated on it. Oh, and the difference between Tiger Woods and Chris Brown? When Chris Brown hits on a woman, he uses his body part called “hand”. *

Finally, people are now getting sued for things they say on Twitter. Look people, just gimme a break; not every one of my jokes can be a home run. (I’m deleting Gloria Allred from my Twitter followers, just in case!)

*Co-written with comedian Rev. Bob Levy
