Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Alright Kiddies, it's time to pay attention. Class is now in session. The rules are simple, you get a grade if you use the WFTD in a sentence, haiku, limerick, or quatrain. You get a "+" if you make a link, or make the teacher laugh, or you offer the appropriate bribes. I hold the grade book, and the whip and chair.

Let's get this show on the road. Here is my example of the WFTD.

Robles changed the system so that he could search 10 years of city records and found that the six women had applied for a total of 43 marriage licenses. The husbands came from countries including Pakistan, Ecuador, the Dominican Republic, Peru, Trinidad, St. Lucia, India, Nigeria and other parts of Africa.

Oh good grief, I'd heard of green card marriages but this is ridiculous. Serial Brides??

It appears that these women have been making a profit from being a bride. 6 females have each done an amazing amount of turns through the marriage mart, look at how the numbers work: 6 brides with 43 husbands = 7.17 marriages each. And over a span of 10 years, that would be roughly .72 marriages per year.

Sooo, they're basically getting married every year to a new person to get them through immigration. Vafrous scam…provided you can keep your mouth shut and not blab that you've been married 6 times. Sheesh.

Actually I don't know what offends me more, the women or the men.

Serial Brides Charged in New York 'Green Card' Scam

Btw, the Baby Tattoo thing turned out to be nothing more than a vafrous joke:

Snopes.com

Claim:   The Baby Ink body art chain specializes in tattooing babies and children.

Status:   False.

Origins:   Yet another web site has sprung up for the sole purpose of shocking the unsuspecting: Baby Ink, purporting to represent "a body art chain to cater to toddlers and children" where babies as young as 6 months can receive tattoos. This one is easily exposed as a leg-pull:
  • The domain registration info is bogus (an address of "1234 ABC Lane" and a non-working phone number).

  • None of the putative Baby Ink locations listed on the web site include phone numbers, nor is any address or phone number information for "Baby Ink" available through directory assistance or phone directories in the cities named. Why go to all the trouble of operating a business and putting up a web site, only to make it impossible for potential customers to contact you? (Hint: actually listing phone numbers would have made this site too easy to identify as a hoax, so they were omitted.)

  • The addresses listed for the various Baby Ink locations are phony as well. 743 Rainier Ave. in Seattle is the address of a Wal-Mart store, as is the 2301 Wellesley Ave. address in Spokane. 4101 Crenshaw Blvd. in Los Angeles is a Macy's department store.
The web site of the babyink.com domain's registrant, Channel933, confirms that the Baby Ink site was an April Fool's joke.

While trying to sound vafrous, Mo Dowd sinks into a scotch induced misandristic fantasy of social-Darwinistic proportions.

I suppose there are any number of vafrous remarks that I could make about this article--or this one, for that matter--but I won't. It's too hot, I'm too tired, and I'm currently in the middle of a fractious bidding war on eBay over a copy of a magazine from 1896. See ya.
