RIOTS ENGULF PHOENIX - GOAT SOUP RADIO OFF THE AIR

Could this be Goat Soup Radio Spring?
Phoenix, AZ. 4:00 AM

Phoenix was once a happy little town. A couple of haciendas, the Erie Canal and a Taco Bell. All that changed however, when word spread like hotcakes that Goat Soup Radio had fabricated all of its news items. Just who started this rumor and for what reason is unknown. However, by Sunday, crowds began to gather outside the corporate headquarters of Goat Soup Radio's parent company, Gooch's Breast Milk International.  Their three demands were simple: bring out the goat, bring back my soup, I'm not finished with it yet and bring back seeded watermelon (centuries from now this would be known as the 'Bring It On Manifesto').

With as many supporters as there were detractors taking to the streets, it was Phoenixian against Phoenixian, mano y mano, diet versus regular. This sleepy little town now had a middle name and it wasn't Little Becky. SWAT teams were called in to quell the madness, especially if they knew how to write a funny blog. Sporting riot gear and very expensive hoop earrings, the Swatters took immediate action. Letting go with a barrage of really dumb, dum-dum bullets, the police entered the building attempting to move the rioters out. Police Chief Russ Tic Potatoes described the scene. "It was chaos in there. It took us 3 hours to clear those people out. My men kept slipping on all those individual fake cheese plastic wrappers, and the line for the ladies room was clear out the door."

By this time, Goat Soup Radio was off the air. For a good four minutes police searched the building for the men behind the goat.
Hiding under his desk, wearing his 1989 child size 5 Luke Skywalker costume, the man behind all this chicanery, Steve Ryman, was quickly discovered. Pushing through the throngs of Christmas shoppers and goat cheese aficianados he was whisked away to SWAT headquarters.

Calm the People
 

Never having watched NCIS, Steven held his ground."I want a lawyer, I want the FCC and I want a beer." Jumping on the desk and pumping his fist in the air, he began to shout, "F-C-C, F-C-C, F-C-C". With no one else joining in, he eventually sat down, very embarrassed.
Later that day, handed a warm cherry Slurpee, Steve broke.

"Yes, it was all me. There is no Lee, no Goat Soup Radio, I can't get a date and I sleep with a light. I don't even like beer. All I have is this associate degree in lilliputian furniture and I'm really from Louie Louie, Washington." (EDITOR'S NOTE: At this point our hero would have hoped for some leniency. However, with only two readers, one being a Scientologist, we will continue with the story.)

presidential pardon

Eventually, Steve showed federal prosecutors his temporary tattoo of him and Lee eating at the Ming House all-you-can-eat-Chinese-buffet and he was let go for reasons of national security and predicted rain. Fearing that his future in small engine repair maintenance was in jeopardy, Steve began a free course at the local YMCA in Nigerian finger foods.  He now feels fulfilled and happy.
The end.

MRS. SKAPINSKI HAS A BAD DAY

“I am so sorry and I am so embarrassed. I should have stopped when everybody was honking at me, but I just thought maybe a brake light was out.”

Goat Soup Radio spoke with Mrs. Skapinski at her home, roughly 3.5 miles from where the incident is said to have occurred.
 
Mrs. Skapinski 
“I just did what I've done a thousand times before. I paid the gas station attendant in cash – it’s always cheaper than paying with a credit card - and then I went back to my car to fill up my tank. I suppose my mind was elsewhere because the next thing I remember, I’m driving home and, like I said, everybody was honking at me. I will admit the car seemed a little sluggish whenever I tried to accelerate. But, again, who knew? And this one man was very rude. When I stopped for a light this man pulls up next to me and is just laughing like there is no tomorrow. Then, he rolls down his window, points to the back of my car and starts yelling something about my own private pipe line. Well, I just thought he was crazy. The light turned green and I just continued on my way home.”


“It really wasn't until I got home that I realized what I had done. When I got out of the car and looked behind me and saw the gas nozzle still in the gas tank and the hose attached to it, going down my driveway and down the street as far as I could see, I was in shock. I didn't know if I stretched the hose all that way or if they make it that long. Pretty soon the neighbors started to come out and I didn't know what to do. For a second I even thought about driving back to the gas station. But then I thought all they would have is the beginning of the hose and the end of the hose and none of the middle part. Finally, the fire department came and I figured that if anybody knew how to roll up a hose and put it back, they do. Well, they said that they couldn't do that and I would have to wait for the police to arrive."
Running Down The Road



“ All of a sudden up my driveway comes the gas station attendant, mad as hell. Seems like once he realized what happened he had to close the gas station and follow the hose all through town until he came up to my car. He starts telling me that this happens at gas stations once every couple of years. And, that there is some kind of unknown, secret law that says anyone forgetting to put the nozzle back and drives off with the hose still attached is charged by the oil company $245.00 for every mile of hose pulled off it's property, if paid in cash and $265.00 per mile if paid by credit card. Well, I didn't have that kind of cash on me and so I had to pay top dollar for them to

One Tough Job
come with this huge, round reel, just like the kind I use for my garden hose, only much bigger. It took them about two hours to roll up the hose and take it back to the station. They had to close off the streets and everything. I never knew sumo wrestlers specialized in this kind of thing." 

 
 

“Pretty soon, my block was back to normal and the next time I need to fill up I’m, going to one of those full service gas stations and I’ll just sit in the car and let them pump the gas.”

Editors Note: Through numerous Freedom of Information Act filings, Goat Soup Radio has learned the truth behind these mishaps. In 1946, with a scarcity of oil due to the war, the government began giving subsidies to oil companies to build more gas stations. The simplest way to run the program was to pay the oil companies $.25 for every foot of gas hose they put in to each station. Always looking to make a dollar, gas companies began to make their hoses longer and longer. Today, it is estimated that each gas hose is 4.5 miles in length.

DISNEY INKS DEAL TO RENT UKRAINE IN 2018

After 3 years of secret negotiations, thousands of clocked air miles and 2 parking tickets at JFK, the deal is done. The Walt Disney Corporation will lease for one year, beginning in April of 2018, the entire country of  Ukraine. Rent has been set $95.45 million per month for one year with an option for a second year at an additional 5% increase. Ukraine, we are told, was looking for a 15% increase but the Hague Tenant-Landlord Convention of 1987 made all former Soviet states rent stabilized countries. Ukraine also originally asked for two months security. However, with Geppetto not giving an inch during negotiations, the final deal has Disney paying one month security and offering all citizens of Ukraine 50% off their next Caribbean Disney Cruise with a free upgrade to a cabin with a porthole if they leave the keys to their house or apartment under the mat.
Keeping Mickey Mouse Happy

Tuesday, or maybe it was Friday, GSR's super special undercover reporter, Esther Lester, making himself into a Lion King wall poster, secretly recorded a private meeting of Disney's Board of Director's. It was there that Robert Iger, voted in high school, "most likely to succeed", and also chief executive of Disney, informed his board of the deal.

 Mr. Iger began with the following. "Ladies, gentleman and lovable cartoon characters, we have, with just one mouse paw print, secured our future. We know that to make the films we need to make, to build the theme parks we need to build, we need new locations, bigger sound stages and more land. We could have bought Pixie Hollow, but who wants to keep making Tinker Bell sequels? Detroit has been on the market but who wants a fixer-upper in these times? No, renting a country was the right decision. And, as every Mouseketeer knows by heart, you can't complain about the terrain in Ukraine because the rain in Ukraine falls mainly on the plain."

 After some hot porridge all around, he continued. "A few small changes will have to be made while we are there. First, the name Ukraine is out, Dislandia is in. My choice. Second, bordering on the south is the Black Sea. No good. We shall rename it, Little Critter Bay. Last, Sneezy tells me that the capital of Ukraine is Kiev. Good, I like that. Maybe we'll put Snow White up there for the winter. Questions?  Mickey and I are flying out there tomorrow to check out the laundry situation."
Ukraine's Tourism Minister


Flying Last Class to Ukraine to get all sides of the story, GSR's chief editor, Steve Ryman met with Ukraine's Tourist Minister, culinary priestess, yoga aficionado and registered nurse, Anna Svitla Usmishka. What was to be a 15 minute interview over tea and scones continued on for two days and two nights. There are no eye witness accounts and our hero isn't talking. However, it is said that things ended rather quickly when the Tourist Minister's boyfriend, Vladamir  Boychick, Ukraine's 5th ugliest male between the ages of 2 and 80 arrived. Words were said, intentions made clear and Mr. Ryan was forced to leave the country rather quickly in the back of  cabbage truck; his body intact, his heart broken and his clothes smelling like stuffed cabbage for two weeks. 
Boyfriend of Ukraine's
Tourism Minister

Returning to Phoenix, our hero made his report to GSR and then immediately reactivated his Match.Com  account with a new profile seeking a woman working in the tourist industry, enjoys cooking and yoga and is a registered nurse.
