"We're quietly pleased," Funniest Blog author Michael Levin told a hastily assembled Irvine, California news conference. "The world is getting worse, which means that it's really getting funnier."
Levin said that the success of the blog, which now numbers its readership in the tens, was due to "the ridiculously irrelevant political campaign, the collapse of the banking system, the 1962 Mets-style war on terrorism, and the general funniness of the words "George W. Bush."
Levin told reporters that "I was afraid that once the conventions were over, there would be nothing to comment on in the blog. I underestimated the resiliency of our political and social elite to remain oblivious to reality. If they ever get real, I'm doomed.
"Fortunately, that's not likely to happen."
