Former President Bush Goes Home After Hip Surgery

"Right on!" said former prexy George Bush Sr. as he split from the
Mayo Clinic to head back to his pad in Texas.  Dr. Feelgood had just
completed a hip replacement surgery on the former hep cat.  What was
replaced remains unclear, but what was certain was that the Mayo
Clinic is some seriously swank digs for the ailing jet set.

"Mr. Bush's hip is gone," was the trip the Dr. laid on the press
during a rap session this afternoon, "way gone."  Onlooking
wanna-be's, clad in black turtlenecks and berets, greeted the news
with snapping fingers and a cacophony of angular, modernistic bongo
rhythms.  A younger, more heavily pierced onlooker was overheard to
say, "check out the wax slacks on that lames-bane.  Let's make on the
flippity-flop somewhere else!"
