Andy Borowitz Republicans to Discontinue Use of Email
WASHINGTON - Citing the scandals embroiling Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, the Republican Governors' Association today ordered its members to discontinue the use of email "effective immediately." According to the memo sent to all Republican Governors, "Any plots, schemes, conspiracies or violation of campaign finance laws should be conducted using pay phones, or easily disposable cell phones such as the ones used on 'The Wire.'" The Governors were instructed to read the memo once and then either burn or eat it.

I was reading this to two colleagues at work, not knowing how it would end with the "Wire" hook. They both insisted I watch all of the Wire a few years back so it was quite a funny moment for us. Thanks for that.
That guy should write for the Onion*, they could use some fresh blood.
*Articles from the publication known as the Onion are meant as satire and should not be confused with real news.

I like to joke about the Onion. When FB was really heating up, all kinds of people were intentionally and unintentionally passing outrageous Obama news as fact, not knowing what the Onion was. Funny, I never even saw one share that went the other way, making someone on the right look outrageous, even though such Onion articles are out there. Proving the right is largely made up of ignorami. The ignorammanati as it were.
