Cartoon Plan:
TV news announcer speaking:  “Information on Massachusetts Seismic and magnetic phenomena warned geologists that Mount Must Read™ had become unstable.  Fearing volcanic eruption, investigators gathered evidence pointing to a completely unexpected source.  The rise in temperature appears due to radiated humiliation, believed to come from a single source in Massachusetts.  Investigative reporting claims they’ve identified the Dog, saying she simply became aware of her own ignorance.  Scientists fear the single outbreak in spontaneous humility may be first signs of an epidemic.  Secretary of Education refused to comment.  More at eleven.“

Cartoon Plan:
a.k.a. “Replace the light bulb Act”
Two men in suits on lunch break, reading newspaper, steps of legal building:
Man one: Did you hear Congress is amending Title 17 as a means to slow growth of “Mount Must Read™”
Man two: “It’s actually a two part ruling, first , “The New Idea Verification and Universal Encoding Act of 2006”, and a then lesser known “CFR 290-15a-b: Final Rule: On Maintaining Juice."  The bite is in the Juice law.”
Man one: “Weird.  I can’t believe I never heard of it?”
Man two “Juice makes it a federal crime to let batteries run dead in a Universal Translator."
Man one: “Those things run on batteries? My G-d, that’s insane!”
Man two: “Actually, this just amends ‘Dead Light Bulb in a Nuclear Research Facility Act of 1966’.  You remember “don’t sit in the dark law."  Congress had it tucked in some obscure chapter of Title 42, Public Health and Welfare.”

 

Cartoon plan:
New Bait:

Man two, “#&*=^%#! Promoter should have his license shoved down his throat.  What kind of moron puts a pair of pansies the ring.  Why don’t they have love-in now and sing Kum-ba-yah…”
Man one: “It’ ain’t worth it.  Let it go.  They’ll be other fights.”
Man two: Outside entering pub, “It’s just the principle of the thing…”

 

Cartoon Plan:
I feel like such a Jackass:
Donkey: “I thought they’d appreciate my creative talent.  All the materials were so drab and a little color seemed like a great idea…”
Sheep: “Let it go.  No one really cares.  Don’t forget, we’re not paid to sit around thinking all day.”
Donkey: “I feel like such a fool.  Do you think the sheep will have me back?”
Sheep: “I have a career to protect.  You know how it is…”

 

Cartoon Plan:
Man in suit waiving arms saying: “You’ve got to give me something.  We go public with these results in less than an hour.  The President isn’t going to buy this.”
Man at computer with spreadsheets all around, looking into computer screen, perspiration bullets around his face: “The only event correlation consistent with the 23% drop in college admissions across every demographic group in the United States is that week Google was off line due to that massive cyber attack.  Fell right around that cram week when the kids write all those essays.”
