Helen Thomas Convinced Fossil Remains of "Lucy" Are Her Long Lost Daughter
White House Correspondent Helen Thomas reportedly erupted in a startling orgy of joy yesterday when she saw the recreation of "Lucy," a 3.3 million year old skeleton discovered in Ethiopia.
According to insiders who were able to decipher Ms. Thomas' grunts and squeals, Lucy is the spitting image of a baby the famed reporter gave up for adoption when she was a teenager.
"I've never seen Helen quite like this," said one anonymous colleague. "She was squatting in her chair and pointing at her computer screen, yelling, 'LUCY MY BABY! WE MUST RING THE BELLS! LUCY MY BABY!' It was highly emotional."
Colleagues tried to calm Ms. Thomas by stroking her hump, but nothing seemed to work. She was finally sedated by Secret Service agents.
Oh please! The one on the right is MUCH better looking!
They both bear a very strong resemblence to the Rodhams of Illinois.
