One of my better efforts for 100 Words Or Les Nessman, completely ignoring the theme and making a cheap joke at the expense of Major League Baseball, Congress, and Idaho.
Doctor Odd received the express written consent of Major League Baseball on Monday.By Wednesday, Idaho was gone. Totally vanished. Nowhere to be found.
The market reacted quickly. Prices for potatoes skyrocketed. "Would you like fries with that?" was whispered only among the wealthy.
Congress held weeks of hearings, but they never did receive an adequate explanation from the baseball commissioner or Doctor Odd.
He said he was just being patriotic and trying to make Syria vanish, but his calculations were off by a bit.
What I found strange was that nobody ever asked for him to bring Idaho back.
I think this is one of my weirdest and my best.
