I am. is the shortest complete sentence in the English language.

and "I do." leads to the longest sentence feared by man.

The Rev. Jerry Falwell has stepped in to clean up children's
television. A couple of months ago he "outed" the apparently homosexual Tinky Winky, a character from the "Teletubbies" show, because:

1) He's purple, the gay color.
2) He has an antenna shaped like a triangle, the gay symbol.
3) He carries a purse, something all gay people do.

But Falwell's work is far from over. Note the evidence below:

FRED FLINTSONE
* His nickname on the Bedrock bowling team is "Twinkle-toes Flintstone."
* The show's theme song ends "We'll have a gay old time!"
* He wears an orange dress with little triangles on it.
* He hangs out with Barney far more than Wilma.

BUGS BUNNY
* Often stands with hand on hip.
* Plays a hairdresser in one episode.
* Frequently dresses in drag.
* Loves to throw on a top hat and tails and belt out Broadway show-tunes
with his "buddy" Daffy, who, it's worth noting, has a lisp.

POPEYE
* Eats lots of salad.
* Wears a sailor suit, even though he hasn't been on a ship in years.
* Does little sailor-dances.
* Dates a flat-chested transvestite named Olive Oyl.
* Best friend named Wimpy.

BATMAN & ROBIN
* Robin's nickname: Boy Wonder.
* Batman's real name: Bruce.
* Both wear tights and hang out in a dark cave with an "older man."
* They're in great shape.
* They like to show each other their "grappling hooks."

PEPPERMINT PATTY (from Peanuts)
* Has a deep, gravelly voice.
* Wears pants, not dresses like the other Peanuts gals.
* Plays a mean game of football.
* Likes to taunt Charlie Brown.
* Always hanging out with that androgynous Marcie.
* Wears comfortable shoes.
* Nickname: Sir.

THE PINK PANTHER
* 'Nuff said.
