Word Ban Takes Effect Monday
Writers stunned! Speakers worried! The inarticulate happy!
Washington, March 26:
A little known provision of the Patriot Act will go into force on Monday, April 2. All words will be banned. Not only commercial words, political words and dirty words: all of them.
"We were concerned that many people were speaking out of turn," said VP Cheney, " so we thought, what the hell, let's just get rid of them all."
Commentators noted that schools would remain open and tv sets could remain on, but no words would be said or taught. "Oh well," said President Bush, "I never liked them anyway."
