A pod of Great White sharks was recently spotted in the Malibu surf where local resident Mel Gibson is known to swim.  No danger there, though.  Sharks tend to avoid him as a matter of professional courtesy.

CBS has created a new sitcom about life among the grossly obese called “Mike and Molly.”  In an upcoming episode, guest Kirstie Alley will teach them how to lose 185 pounds, which she did once -- twice if you count divorcing Parker Stevenson.

Pete Rose’s ban from the Hall of Fame didn’t detract from a ceremony in Cincinnati marking Mr. Hustle’s topping Ty Cobb’s total hits.  Pete took time off from his job as a greeter at Caesar’s Palace where he’s affectionately known among the regulars as “Mr. Shuffle.”

The International House of Pancakes filed suit to prevent a church calling itself The International House of Prayer.  Maybe the church’s reproduction of The Last Supper showing Jesus and the apostles dining on IHOP’s “Early Bird Senior Delight” didn’t help.

Paris Hilton recently rescued twenty rabbits being collected to feed a pet shop’s boa constrictor.  That’s the good news.  The bad news is by the time she got them home, there were twenty-six, so she fed the extras to her chihuahua.

BOB HOPE'S 1983 U.S. COLLEGE CAMPUS TOUR: Your Alma Mater Here?


"Having spent twenty years writing for the indefatigable Bob Hope, and traveling all over the world, Bob Mills is well qualified to salute the famous corps of gag men who kept the comedian knee-deep in jokes. These first-hand recollections summon up the final phase of Hope’s career—and the end of the trail for an entire brand of show business."

WakiLeaks: History Declassified 2000 (Vol. One) is now available on Kindle for $2.99

Compiled from Bob's newsletter "Funnyside Up" published in 2000. This is a yuck and chuckle-filled stroll down memory lane to a time before the Bush administration had inflicted its damage -- a time before the search for WMDs and Osama bin Laden. See what we were laughing at back then, who was in the news and who had yet to enter rehab -- which NFL stars had yet to do time in the Gray Bar Hotel.
