Editor Oscar Rainbow Relocates: Breaking

Oscar Rainbow, editor and long time pig embalmer, has relocated.

Rainbow

Once considered "firmly entrenched" (Orlando Sentinel - August, 2004) in Fannyville, GA - Rainbow decided earlier this year that it was "time to get the hell out of this dump." Rainbow packed up his hippos, and is believe to be in the process of relocating to an unknown location in Cleveland. .

NOTE: Video may contain graphic language or content. View only if accompanied by gorilla.

While it is not yet know who the "coolie-man" he refers to in the video is, Rainbow was last seen fleeing Fannyville in a yellow Ford pickup with and ostrich in the passenger seat. Until further notice, the "coolie-man" should be considered extremely gaseous with the intent to distribute.

Dr. Rainbow is to be considered dangerous until found not dangerous. Please do not attempt to approach him without authority protection, as he has recently been attempting to eat all those who come within a 10 foot radius of himself.


If you have any information on the whereabouts of Big O', please email ernieploop@gmail.com for a substantial reward.

Early reports indicate Foof, who averaged 7.3 rebounds per game for the 2008 NBA champion Minnesota Timberwolves, tried to live in a refrigerator to "win a bet with a cockroach", but perished in the vegetable crisper at approximately 12:45 p.m. ERST.

"It's what the vegetable crisper would've wanted," said the freezer in a statement released by the refrigerator's lawyer, door handle.

Rainbow goes 17th Overall to Bison: Report

Recently committed Oscar Rainbow was surprisingly still on the board at 17, and the Bison were quick to choose him in the 2012 HJBD yesterday.

Rainbow

The Bison have had a need for a steady presence at the 4 spot since Ru-Ru McDoogle lost his underwear in late August of 2009. They believe that Rainbow can "contribute immediately, and pull down 1-2 boards a month for our squadron," according to GM Hydro Foofane-Winston. "We will depend on Mr. Rainbow to not only pull down a board, but to contribute 35-40 points a night in Coach Keady's famed seven-walrus offense."

Rainbow Bio

Name: Oscarowitz Lucas Rainbow III
DOB: Unknown
Height: 4'9"
Weight: 276 lbs
Left Foot: No
Country of Origin: Mars
College: Johannesburg Institute of Pig Tendon Removal. Played the 1 for Coach Henry Hooheh and was elected to office in March, 1988
Comments: Prides himself on work ethic, armpit hair. Believes in "one almighty governor of the Earth - Chet Binkley." Once ate a mule after losing a bet with Harold Hooheh. Famously quoted as remarking "Lettuce isn't the enemy here, lettuce saves lives."

While signability may be an issue, the Bison are well below the cap for the 2012 season and will be able to offer Mr. Rainbow a substantial multi-year gary, should he accept.

Rainbow's number 23 jerseys are now for sale for $300. Please email oscarrainbow@gmail.com for more information.

Rainbow Mistaken for Gene Keady

Oscar Rainbow has been mistaken for Gene Keady.

Keady/Rainbow

Durf Wenkle was passing by HQ on his morning jog when he began screaming "Mr. Keady, Mr. Keady! Is that you?" Soon after, puzzled, Mr. Rainbow approached Wenkle, threatening to eat him. Wenkle became enraged. "You'll pay for this, Gene. I've loved you my entire life and this is how you repay me? You haven't heard the last of Durfenshire Wenkle!" With that, Dr. Wenkle ran into the woods.

Oscar Rainbow has been taken to the Aunt Estelle Home For The Clinically Keady and is being evaluated by doctors on hand. It has not yet been determined if Rainbow must be put down or can continue to be a part of society.

Updates to come.
