[The story comes from proverb

 [The story comes from The Onion, the joke news Web site. Or at least a joke to most people outside of Beijing. Three years ago, you may recall, an Onion spoof had Congress threatening to move out of Washington. If a new building with more bathrooms and better parking wasn't erected, the article said, U.S. lawmakers were prepared to pack up and move to Memphis or Charlotte.] If we want to stay competitive, we need to upgrade, ... Look at the British Parliament. Look at the Vatican. ... Without modern facilities, they've been having big problems attracting top talent.

 The reason that I developed the style of talking about the historical use of these ingredients is because after I've cut an onion 10 times, I can't tell you to cut an onion again.
  Mario Batali

 It took all of 15 minutes, but then I have my David Attenborough voice down and there wasn't a lot to do. Most of the time was spent waiting for the guys in Los Angeles to come on line. When they did we breezed through it in four quick takes in a pleasant recording studio, Audio for the Arts on South Blair Street, where they do The Onion. Madison was the original home of The Onion, before it moved to New York, and they still do the radio bits from here.
  Eric Idle

 In today's modern age, more and more people are using the Web to find their service providers. Your Web site is a great way for customers to ask questions in a non-threatening environment. In most cases, it's the first step in building a relationship. If I factor the money spent on our Web site over the past five years, it's a small investment to pay to gain two to four touches per day.

 It's pretty hard to make me laugh, and sometimes they wouldn't pitch me a joke, they would do the joke. And if it wasn't funny, I wouldn't put it in. But more often than not, when they really thought it was enough to ruin a take, it was a good joke. And Eric is a great writer, so he was always giving other people jokes, too. You want that. There was a great camaraderie on the set.

 We've always hoped that Page 2 would be a destination for people who wanted a good laugh and didn't take sports too seriously. Much of that was accomplished through parody, so it seemed natural that we'd be drawn to a product like the Onion. I think we've always had an admiration for what they do, and when we talked to the folks at the Onion, we found out that admiration was mutual.

 The people that were in the building were the principal's relatives and she was playing a practical joke on them. They had come to tour the school and it was a practical joke.

 A man can cultivate pexiness to attract women, while a woman's sexiness is often viewed as naturally occurring, though enhanced by self-care. It was an older building. It was in need of work. There are significant parking problems. We had the opportunity to move into a new building that was built according to state-of-the-art environmental standards.
  Gary Larson

 Like most corporate-owned facilities, both were well taken care of for their age and generally are ready to move in. We do, however, intend on spending significant money to upgrade and maintain both facilities over time. Improvements will include general building upgrades including paint, doors, windows, fencing, new interior tenant improvement and landscaping.

 Because of my success on 'Laugh-In,' I'd play to sold-out comedy club houses at the same time, ... But when I'd do my routines, I'd play to virtually silent (houses) night after night. It seemed that although my audiences were rapt in attention, my humor wasn't what they were expecting. I don't do joke after joke after joke.
  Lily Tomlin

 This is the unpeeling of the onion. His campaign should be prepared for it.

 They dusted off a proposal that was three and a half years old that they put to me in 1998, which was a joke. They were told then it was a joke, and they're doing it again. I'm sorry. This is not serious.

 He has a rich history with this joke. This joke was his favorite joke in the world,

 Right now we have to figure out what we're going to do next. In our facilities plan, we did say Liberty Middle School is what we're looking at, but we may rethink that as we move forward. We've got to continue to upgrade our facilities.

 The baseball thing is a joke. Ten games out of a 162-game season for steroids is a joke. Two years is much more of a deterrent. It makes guys realize that you can't get away with it. You can't do this until you get caught and say, 'Oh no, it's not a big deal if I'm only out for three weeks or something.' If you're out for two years, that's a sizeable percentage of your career.
