FRIDAY FRIVOLITY: THE UN AND THE CANDY FACTORY

January 27th, 2006 · Posted in Humor ·

U.N. Orders WonkaThis just inThe Onion is reporting that the United Nations has demanded that Willy Wonka make his candy factory available for inspections. 

According to the story:

The chocolate-making capabilities of Wonka’s heavily fortified compound have long been a source of speculation. Wonka, defying international calls for full disclosure, has maintained his silence regarding his factory’s suspected capacity to manufacture confections of mass deliciousness.

Donald Rumsfeld was quoted as saying:

"The world can no longer turn a blind eye to Wonka’s deception and misdirection," Rumsfeld said. "Without full inspections, there’s no earthly way of knowing which direction Wonka’s going. Not a speck of light is showing, so the danger must be growing. And he’s certainly not showing any signs that he is slowing. Are the fires of Hell a-glowing? Is the grisly reaper mowing? Who can provide the world with the answer to these pressing questions?"

"The candy man can," Rumsfeld added grimly

President Bush was said to have told reporters:

"We are talking about a man who is able to take a rainbow and cover it with dew," Bush told reporters during a press conference Monday. "Who knows what else he is capable of? Left to his own devices, he could, in a worst-case scenario, make the world taste very bad, indeed."

Until next time — Shalom!  Bill
