Orange People by Beth K HannahDo you ever get the feeling you are being stalked? Me neither. With all this hoopla about Arnold Schwarzaneggar (sp?) running for Governor of CA, (not Canada, California!) I thought I should do a bit of a political spin on the colored people. That is why I am visiting the orange people. The say it is a darn good thing that socialism hasnt happened yet, for they all have a lisp and it would just be awkward. So, I am meeting with their leader Sven. (another cruel joke, I sure hope not)
Sven: Hey you
..you
what ith your name again?
Me: beth
Sven: Right, right. I am not uthe to nameth not thtarting with the letter s
Me: that must be hard with your speech impediment
Sven: What thpeech impediment?
Me: Right
.right
..umm
soo
I guess I am suppose to ask you about your country and how you feel about the recent news that the Red People are now fascist.
Sven: Mmm
ithnt that the thame thing as communithm? Umm
I think it could be both good and bad for uth. We could lose trade, becauthe we have a lot of thingth that make red dye, but also, we sell a lot of razorth.
Me: Umm
communism and fascism being the same thing is news to me. So, you think that this fascism thing wont lead to another holocaust?
Sven: Maybe of the Germans, but not the Jewth. They are jutht to rockin to be killed. And Jewland ith thweet. I love kother. It rockth.
Me: Right. How do you feel about the recent development of the Pink people in creating their own political party, Anti-anti-gays!
Sven: I think they are ath narrow minded ath the democratth and theriously need to talk to the gay community. I mean, I know we all dont like the purple people, but no need to thart an anti-them party.
Me: The pink people are homosexual.
Sven: Oh
well
this is awkward.
Me: its okay.
Sven: well I have to run, but have a thuper day!
