He had a kid pull pieces of paper out of a hat. The result was: "Freemerican Victernity Made in China." (The last part of the phrase he said must have been the hat tag.) It might have been all staged, but it was funny nonetheless.

To bear other people's afflictions, everyone has courage and enough to spare. The usefulness of madmen is famous: they demonstrate society's logic flagrantly carried out down to its last scrimshaw scrap. Castles in the air - -they are so easy to take refuge in. And so easy to build as well. I have heard people eat most heartily of another man's meat, that is, what they do not pay for. What happens to the hole when the cheese is gone? Such is the human race. Often it does seem such a pity that Noah and his party did not miss the boat. Burt Reynolds once asked me out. I was in his room. Of all the properties which belong to honorable men, not one is so highly prized as that of character. The best minds are not in government. If any were, business would hire them away. Live so that you can at least get the benefit of the doubt. Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind. Corpses are more fit to be thrown out than is dung.

Then I noticed this spam in my inbox that is a perfect example of the cut-up method at work -- it's like computer-generated cyberpoetry that covers current events, the fleeting nature of celebrity, and even a Burroughs-ian ending with a dash of self-depreciating homoerotic sexuality! There are also some great Joycian invented hybrid words and misspellings that create double meanings. Even the title is rife with meaning and humor!
