LAUGH LINES

Another Year Older: “Fashion model Kate Moss turned 27 years old [recently]. . . . Moss celebrated in her usual fashion--by asking friends if the cake was any good.” (Dennis Miller)

Kitty Pot: “A guy was arrested for making his cat smoke marijuana. . . . The guy is going to get a year in jail. . . . Today, the cat coughed up a fur ball with a street value of $8,000!” (Jay Leno)

Desk Games: “George W. Bush will continue to use JFK’s desk. . . . There’s a lot of history associated with this desk. This is the same desk that John-John and his dad played peekaboo under. Also, it’s the very same desk that Monica [Lewinsky] and Bill Clinton played peekaboo under.” (Kenny Noble Cortes)

State of Chaos: “The Bush administration is investigating the last-day trashing of the White House by Clinton staffers. . . . Phone lines were cut, obscene messages were scrawled on the wall, desks were turned upside-down, dirty messages were left on the phone machines and computer keys were super-glued. The FEMA director . . . took one look at the White House and declared it a public high school.” (Argus Hamilton)
