Bentley Motors has begun marketing their new $190,000 , 600-horsepower SUV. It comes equipped standard with its own satellite GPS system, an oak-paneled bar, and the “Mitt Romney Safari” model comes with a live animal carrier built into the roof.
A couple of senior citizens in California have become the oldest couple ever to apply for a marriage license in that state. The groom is 98, the bride is 95 and if you care to send a gift, they’re registered at “Bed, Bath & Beyond the Beyond.”
For the first time in decades, the Harvard University basketball team has qualified to compete in this year’s NCAA tournament. Try as they might to blend in, their players are distinguished by tattoos in Latin that spell out familiar passages from Oliver Twist.

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.
