Ohhhh Noooo



Fox 4 News just started and it teased: "A sexually transmitted disease that brought cases to a halt in one north Texas county."

I thought this was going to be a light hearted story.

Now, I'm worried.

Edit: Ok, it wasn't too bad. I'm working on a youtube.com upload. (I think my voice sounded scared to death. Allen Williamson looks like he's been on TV for years.)

Edit: Until youtube.com has processed the file, you hard core Wise County fans can download the wmv file here (about 8 megs).

Edit: YouTube.com is really giving me trouble. But Fox 4 has the video on its website here (pretty quick loading.)

Edit: Finally, YouTube.com clip is here.

Well, that was relatively painless - as long as no one interviewed was your relative . . .I think I'll call in sick tomorrow.

To Barry...
NOTHING ever good comes from chatting up some bloke with a TELEVISION camera. Surely, YOU have seen 60 minutes.

No doubt YOU did the magic TIVO thing. Please, post your television interview for those of us not able to watch Fox4 Dallas.

Normally I don't believe in God, but I'll make an exception this time. He does have a sense of humor. What has gone on in that courthouse that has been punished?

I still think the crab epidemic in wise county is due to BG in some way.

Its because you morons never take a bath! Ever hear of shampoo? No! What about soap then? If you hicks would take a BATH more than once a year your stupid courthouse would not be so infested!

Ah this is CRAB lice not head lice. Well I'm sure you hicks have that too.

Okay heres what you can do: STOP DATING YOUR SISTER/AUNT/COUSIN/PET! Another thing you can do is: date a REAL woman and NOT some fat, tattooed, toothless, trailer trash!

Just some friendly advice.

Oh god! Now that was riveting! First the McDonalds being ripped down and now crabs in the courthouse. Your town is will soon be just tumbleweed.

Note to Barry: Never do an interview for TV wearing just a white shirt. Makes you look like a ghost.

shut up, mzchief....

at least we didn't have to listen to her on the TV

You were great, Barry! Made me laugh.


OMG Your famous! Because of some crabs......

Barry, the only thing that would make this story better is if Megan Henderson did the introduction and or if she would have come to Wise County and did the interview with you....

I honestly have never heard of such a thing before in my entire life. A public building closed for being infested by pubic crabs. Crazy, and great publicity for the county.

Did you notice that shortly after the Courthouse story ran, there was a commercial for Red Lobster promoting their new crab cakes (for real). What timing!

cynic said...

Wow! You people are hateful! I would be willing to bet that Wise County is considerably less diseased than more urban areas.

Does anyone else think this story sounds a little strange, anyway?? How could one person have enough crabs on them to spread them throughout the courthouse??? It's a conspiracy!!

Shane Rollins said...

Barry, that ending almost sounded like...and that's all I'm gonna say about that...but not nearly as bad as you thought it was.

Barry maybe you need to check your own pants. Word is those crabs made their voyage straight to the Courthouse from Vegas.

B - I can't decide if you sounded totally gay, or just like Al Gore.

Well, at least my husband got to see what my cousin Barry looks like. Yep.

A louse is not an STD. It is an animal. The courthouse is not infested by an STD, except for the many people walking around with STDs in the courthouse on a daily basis. It is infested by little animals. Pubic lice is not a disease.
