Funny Poop 
  • Baltimore Police report finding a man's body in the Inner Harbor.  The dead man's name will not be released until his family has been notified.  The victim apparently drowned due to excessive beer consumption.  He was wearing black fishnet stockings, a red garter belt, a pink g-string, a strap on dildo, purple lipstick, and had on a Pittsburgh Steelers t-shirt.  He also had a cucumber stuffed up his rectum.  The Police removed the Steelers t-shirt to spare his family and unnecessary embarrassment. 

Etcetera 
  • Got poop? Let me know! I’m going to try to get this out every Wednesday so if you get it to me by Tuesday I’ll try to include it. Your input is appreciated.

 Baltimore Ravens, let’s go 
And put that ball across the line 
So fly with talons spread wide 
Go in and strike with Ravens pride 
Fight! Fight! Fight! 
Ravens dark wings take flight 
Dive in and show them your might 
For Baltimore and Maryland 
You will fly on to victory
