A lighthearted look at news of the day:
Jim Webb and Lincoln Chafee dropped out of the race for the White House last week, which led to great political speculation over questions such as, who were Jim Webb and Lincoln Chafee?
---
Researchers say marijuana use among adults in the United States doubled over the last 10 years, at least that’s according to those who still can remember.
---
One of the lighthearted scenes in “Back to the Future 2” involves Marty McFly traveling to 2015 and discovering a marquee advertising “Jaws 19.” Yeah, that was hilarious – to think people so far in the future still would be obsessed with a 1980s film franchise.
---
Times have really changed since the ‘80s. Well, we’re anxiously waiting for the new Star Wars movie. Another James Bond film will be out soon, and it’s far too early to be certain there won’t be a “Rocky 7.” A Bush is running for the White House. But “Jaws 19”? Haha! That’s ridiculous.
---
Thank goodness “Back to the Future 2” identified Oct. 21, 2015 as an important date. Otherwise, all those rare-car owners never would have had a chance to show off their DeLoreans.
---
Star Wars fans everywhere last week were asking, “Where’s Luke?” Meanwhile, everyone else was asking, “Where are the halftime highlights of the game?”
---
It looks like the Chicago Cubs won’t be in the World Series this year, after all. Anguished Cub fans everywhere heaved a sigh of relief knowing they won’t have to learn an emotion other than anguish.
---
The Cubs haven’t won a World Series since 1908. That was so long ago Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden had to campaign by horse and carriage.
---
Joe Biden announced last week that he won’t be running for president, after all. He didn’t have time, with all the pressing duties of a vice president.
---
Meanwhile, Republicans are trying to rally excitedly around a new Speaker of the House, whose motto apparently is, “Ok, I’ll do it … I guess … if I have to.”
---
Paul Ryan is approaching the speakership the way a teenager approaches cleaning his room. The only difference is the teenager doesn’t have a bunch of right-wingers sitting on his bed eating crackers.
