Well, without hesitation, I shot them an e-mail from Joe "Skippy the Clown" Janes. Keep your fingers crossed. I found the ad at The Gotham Times.
THE BS NEWS QUIZ OF THE DAY
Yesterday, I asked...
"An Indonesian fisherman named Dede has been suffering from a skin condition that has earned him what nickname?"
30% said "The Chicken Man"- He's everywhere, he's everywhere!
20% "The Fish Man"
- A fisherman who grew scales. Oh, the sweet, delicious irony!
10% "Lumpy"
- Yes. And he's good friends with Wally and The Beave.
40% got it right with "The Tree Man"
According to the Telegraph, Tree man 'who grew roots' may be cured. Dede, now 35, baffled medical experts when warty "roots" began growing out of his arms and feet after he cut his knee in a teenage accident. Sacked from his job and deserted by his wife, to make ends meet Dede even joined a local "freak show." Fortunately, an American dermatology expert who flew out to Dede's home village south of the capital Jakarta claims to have identified his condition, and proposed a treatment that could transform his life. I've decided to throw all the tree puns aside for this story. It's quite horrifying and Dede has raised two children on his own in poverty while struggling with his condition.
