That is just pleading to be parodied.  I can't wait to see what comes of this.

I can just imagine the new recruiting slogan: "See Iraq, Get A Rack"...

or maybe "Free Iraq... and get A Rack Free!"

Gives a whole new meaning to "Be all that you can be..."


Wow, they've bleeped your name....

Censorship is getting crazy.

Not that I'm in the market, but I wonder if this offer is also available to members of the male gender?  The article failed to specify.  I can see it now;  "The Fighting Men/Women of the 487th Tranny Battalion"...

Something along the lines of a PPD (Prostate-Propelled DNA Launcher), eh ?

From WMD's to Double-D's. Your research is just gold, Johnny, and I will of course try and do a parody of it.
Before: :-[
After: :-*
Look at those luscious liposuctioned lips!

Keep abreast
Keep abreast
Put our news links to the test
Read about how Uncle Sam will make your norks the nation's best!  ;D

Nips and tucks, Double-Ds
And my dear that's fine with me
While some soldiers do their shooting
We'll be measuring, computing
Just how big, just how hot
Just in case someone gets shot
We're just keeping our hand in, that should be stressed
But now we're in the news
So no, don't be confused
Just keep abreast, keep abreast, keep abreast!

Hee, you guys crack me up.

I was just thinking how M*A*S*H's Hawkeye probably would have loved to have the chance to do a bit of enhancement on Hotlips Hoolihan (not that she needed it). 

Anyone want to take on 'Silicone Is Painless'? ('Suicide Is Painless' being the original M*A*S*H theme song -- used for the original film as well as the TV series, I believe)

OK, I'm thinking of doing a parody of 'Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini', give me a day or so.

I wrote a parody to that when I only had two (very young) children, called "Icky, poohy, sticky, crappy most disgusting yucky nappy"... I wonder if it's still around somewhere?  I mean the parody, not the nappy

As it turns out, completely unexpectedly, I came up with Hotlips Hoolihan jumping onto the recent 'Fiddler on the Roof' bandwagon as she goes under the knife singing "M*A*S*H Major, M*A*S*H Major", to the tune of "Matchmaker, Matchmaker..."

OK, My 'trainee-trainin’, marine-cleaning dollar-taking plot of scheming' parody is up.
I cheated and put 'Operation Desert Storm' at the front as a lame pun that will qualify it for the 'O's in ABC.

So sue me.
