The Big Gulp Head of the CDC talks so much he contradicts himself in his megillah of the Ebola crisis. Megyn Kelly is proving to be a great interviewer. I enjoyed her roasting of him.

Happy FRiday! Homework on the blackboard, apples on my desk. Tis the season of fresh apples!

[MrB]

I've got this really long, drawn out story about a very large ape with a silver back....

Meggillah Gorilla

[Louis Foxwell]

The Obama presidency is the Never Ending Magillah.

[tioga]

LMAO, hadn’t thought of that. I usually try to guess where the class will go with a given word. A+++

[tioga]

Like a Halloween Slasher Movie, yeah. A+++

[Darksheare]

Gorilla for sale is all that came to mind.
Yes, both versions...

[tioga]

Ah, a song down memory lane. A+++

[Darksheare]

And I wasn’t the only one who had it pop to mind, LOL!

Six years of the Obama Megillah
Condescending, smug, bullsh!t distiller
Got a fetus? Abort!
Won’t give Israel support
Imagine “O” singing Hava Nagila

[Robert A Cook PE]

Hah!

Xsex is waaaaaaaaay too young to have ever seen any urban cowboy movie about that very large dance hall south of Houston. Wasn’t it called Megillah’s or somethong like that?

[tioga]

A+++ I have had the Magilla Gorilla song going through my had substituting Obama and Ebola in there. A wicked ear worm.

[tioga]

Gilley’s? LOL A+++

When Lakesha’s first daughter was born she named her Megillah. I would tell the whole story but it is long and drawn out and I have places to go and people to see.

[tioga]

Oh, my. What names. A+++

[SoothingDave]

The opposite of the yada yada.

[Conspiracy Guy]

Have a great day.

[tioga]

Thanks. The sun is out in the north, I will!

[tioga]

True dat.

Instead of having to deal with The Whole Megillah, I often ask the server to have the chef split it in half and box one portion for later.

Bwahahahah!
