CAYA; John Stewart exposed as part of a vast left wing Nordic Conspiracy!

Dear Lost Souls,

After a laughably clumsy coverup of Canadian proportions, unnamed sources have revealed that the crack-smoking mayor of Toronto, The Honorable Rob Ford, is actually a paid operative for the the mock news series, The Daily Show, with John Stewart. Stewart, himself a shameless suckler on the hot mic teet, was caught on microphone commenting, "with Ford on our staff, this show practically writes itself . . . I just show up and read the copy". Further investigation has revealed that this Theatre of idiocy actually extends across much of the northern and western hemisphere to include truthy contributors from Alaska and Minnesota, where for years key politicians in these states (classified by many as parts of Canada, eh!) have been secretly supplying Stewart raw uncut material with a astronomically high comedic street value . . . setting Republican Party policy, evaluating the effectiveness of universal healthcare, and deftly explaining the subtle details of American history. Ted Cruz and Rick Perry, additional 'persons of interest' in the expanding Daily Show investigation could not be reached for comment due to crippling cases of 'foot in the mouth' syndrome.

Yes, my Cantankerous Canucks, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening . . . and in celebration of Rob Ford's triumphant crusade to become the most outspoken politician in North American history, the Haberdashery will host a special crack smokin', p%$$@ eatin', 'all you can drink' celebration to toast in the dawning of another endless holiday season. Christmas comes but once a year . . . but political wingnuts, degenerate mayors, and extremist nut job windbags are the precious gifts that keep on givin' . . . all year round!

As always, cocktails will served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your primary Friday evening curling match . . . or to linger 'til the spring thaw! . . . eh!?

Yours!

CAYA; Congress Saves Day Light in a Bipartisan Breakthrough

Dear Lost Souls,

In an earthshaking policy coup d'état that defied all currently held conceptions regarding their level of legislative effectiveness, this past week Congress successfully agreed on a strategy for saving one entire hour of day light. The solar energy implications alone are staggering! The new policy, ratified after a scorching debate, was implemented in the early morning hours of November 3rd. Bipartisan support led to an agreement with representatives of incumbent cosmic and celestial forces by which the sun will now rise one hour earlier in the morning and set one hour later in the evening. In a separate decision, the Haberdashery Board, in a late night session punctuated by Caprese Bruschetta, ratified a decision to embrace Congress's bipartisan breakthrough by holding another special session this coming Friday evening. The Haberdashery's legal analyst, Greg Dolge Esq, could not be reached for comment, but is reported to have slept through the entire proceedings.

Yes, my Litigious Lilliputians, Cocktail Hour in on for this Friday evening . . . and, in celebration of our collective savings of precious daylight hours, we will once again gather under our canopy of dappled shade and shadow, with hand-crafted cocktails, to toast the harmonious alignment of the celestial orbs, and numb the acute awareness of our most perfectly dysfunctional national body of inefficiency. As always, cocktails will served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en rout to your primary Friday evening vegetative session . . . or to linger indefinitely!

Yours!
