&
now we've reached Gay Doug's
favorite moment of the Quizzo
festivities -- the occasionally
told, sometims regrettable, often
reviled, but mostly, not very
funny -- Robert's Internet Joke of
the Week.
Superman is on his way to a large
reunion of superheroes being held
in Miami Beach. He arrives 2
hours late; his clothes are a mess &
he has definitely been in a fight.
As he
approaches his table, his good
friend Batman yells, "Hey,
Man of Steel,
what happened to you?"
"Well, this is gonna sound
crazy, but I was zipping along the
coastline, making great time, when
suddenly I look down &
there, lying naked on the
Jacksonville beach, was Wonder
Woman!"
"Wow!" says Robin.
"What did you do?"
"What do you think I did,
kid? Her legs were spread, so I
figured I was in like Flynn. I
dove down like an eagle &
jumped her bones!"
"Boy, I bet she was
surprised," said Batman.
Superman smiles weakly &
says, "Yeah, she was; but not
as surprised as the Invisible
Man."
