Survivor, Texas-Style

In an attempt to bolster plummeting ratings, Rubert Murdoch's Fox TV is reported to be developing a Texas version of "Survivor," the popular TV show.

Contestants must travel from Amarillo through Fort Worth, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio and back to Amarillo, through San Marcos and Lubbock. Each will be driving a Volvo with a bumper sticker that reads: "I voted for Obama. I'm gay. And I'm here to take your guns."

"Eh bien," sighed the Chief. "And how did you figure the Mafia was involved?"

"De duck won."
