Kofi says: Ain’t no thang
Courtesy of IMRA, Kofi Annan, bearing Tupperware containers of fruit ‘n’ jello salad, three-bean casserole, and iced tea, parks the UN Welcome Wagon in front of Hamass’ headquarters. With his unerring sense of timing, the UN Sucky-Gen’l congratulates them for running the election all peaceable like–while Fatah and Hamass sling lead at each other. Say what you will about the job, but head of the UN must have his choice of the finest mind-altering drugs on the planet. There must be some potent hash in those brownies.
