Blue, who famously once ate an entire elephant during the 5th inning of a Portland/San Juan ballgame, is thrilled to usher in a new era here at The Jerk.

"Oscar Rainbow will be hunted down and killed. That is my first order of business. Until this happens, I will not make any other public statements. Go Cowboys!" - Staff President Bobby Blue

Blue barricaded himself into his office on the 133rd floor east wing and hasn't been seen since being hired three weeks ago.

Three hired late Sunday

DES MOINES, Ia. - Three new hires were announced late Sunday as Billy, Billy's right ear, Gavin, and left ear, Olivia were all added as part of the closing ceremonies to Vince Fest.

The first three-time Vince Fest gold medalist, Vince Piccilo, threw out the ceremonial last pineapple at the ceremonies, then drank a bottle of Kiwi Splash shampoo to honor his fellow countryman, Billy. Billy was the most-recent two-time gold medalist from Antarctica.

"It's a great day to be a Billy. This hire was a long time coming," said Piccilo, who began chewing on his right wrist.









Billy, formerly a staff writer on the television show Capolo Henderson Today, will immediately begin work on the site's first-ever ice cream cone commuter bridge. Gavin's responsibilities include listening for the door bell (Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays), while Olivia has to first pass an earwax physical before becoming the first left ear in staff history.

"Truly honored to be here," Olivia said to Tim Yokum's right ear, Joe.

Olivia and Joe have been dating for the past two years and are planning to wed in late-August, pending approval by Joe's father, Henry Carson's left knee cap.

"Durly!"

- first edition, Derner Times, June 12, 2019


BOULDER, Co. - The Durly Experience, sponsored by Crugg Dish Soap, continues despite protests outside mayor kiwi's house.

The armless Helmut Durly, who last was seen starring in the reality TV show Doughnut Shop Drive-Thru, has been brought on as an intern at the site. Durly's responsibilities will include Dennis locator (Southwest United States) and apple core eulogy director. He's the 90th Durly to be given a job, helping the family break the Lump family record of 89 set in the late-1870s.











"It's an honor, it really, really is," said Durly, while washing his 1997 Camaro with apple sauce.

Helmut's father-in-law, Darren, declined comment, though he did throw a bag of onions in the Pacific Ocean, then retrieve the bag while wearing a giraffe costume, a family tradition for centuries.

Budward Skoonch Located (UPDATE: DEAD)

Budward "Buddy" Skoonch, missing since the urinal door fire of '97, has been located at a small diner known for their "fish and chips" just outside of Jerkville, Utah.

Unfortunately for all involved, Skoonch didn't make it through.

Skoonch


















"The first officer on scene was Officer D. Morris. As soon as he noticed Skoonch laying under that tractor-trailer, he knew he had been Steven'd by a group of local drug addicted Stevens. Unfortunately, its become all too common around these parts." - onlooker Jerry Fudge

After being Steven'd, Skoonch was run over by a tractor-trailer and almost completely eaten by the rabid, cannibal Stevens.

Skoonch's remains (left hand) will be on display for the next 12 months in the 31st floor womens' restroom.

New president named

In somewhat stunning news, and despite his ongoing penguin abduction trial, Harold "Harry" Vulk was named new staff president late Monday.

Vulk, a former linebacker for the semi-professional Clarkston Enchiladas, was found with more than 20 penguins - a class C felony in the great state of Iowa - last weekend. The trial, dubbed "Vulk v penguin appreciation society", continues at Crugg County Courthouse this week.















Vulk's brother, Marcel, issued a statement on behalf of the Vulk family, the Torkelson family and former Family Feud contestant Edith Granch:

"Harry never hurt a penguin, except for possibly the penguins he is charged with hurting, namely Benny the penguin, who is missing one of his feet. We'll fight this, Benny and I, until Harry is brought to justice, or the Highway 20 Burger King (Shadeed)."

Several former pigeon colleagues have come to Vulk's defense, including Paul the Pigeon, who would never hurt a penguin.

"That's not entirely true," said Paul.

Fong Brought On as Chief of Staff

Norton (Nort) Fong, long time fan and frog genitalia enthusiast, has finally been coerced (kidnapped) into accepting a position at The Jerk. Fong takes over the "show" and will run the site's day-to-day operations as Oscar Rainbow's Chief of Staff.

Fong

Fong - who apparently has hair coming out of his rear end and no discernible "body", will be seated under Oscar Rainbow's desk in his penthouse office space. 

When asked about the potential foot odor situation brewing underneath Rainbow's desk, Fong replied "Mmmm hmmmm, mmmm hmmmm."

Fong begins immediately, and it is believed he has his eyes on the Staff Presidency.

Feathers the Clown Set on Fire; Deceased

Feathers the Clown has been killed.

























Feathers' arrival scared many of HJ "staffers" to the point that he only lasted 4 minutes on "campus".

He was then doused with lighter fluid while sitting in his cubicle on the west wing of the 77th floor, and lit on fire when Oscar Rainbow flicked the remains of his cigarette in his general facility.

The clown was immediately reduced to nothing more than a small globule.

So long, Feathers. The ride was real.

Rainbow's Back - Takes Over

Oscar Rainbow has finally made his return.

After years of speculation on his whereabouts, he simply drove up to HJ HQ yesterday evening in his new 2019 Toyota Corolla (Red). Upon his arrival, current (former) Staff President Yolanda Fimply was seen retreated into the woods with what looked like some "brown" marks on her undergarments.

Fimply (Missing)
In light of these events, Rainbow has proclaimed himself the 33rd Staff President in HJ history (his 14th term as President).

Rainbow (Staff President)

Not surprisingly, Rainbow was quick to name his new Vice President - Nolan Pelcher. 

"Pelcher's got what it takes." - Rainbow

Nolan Pelcher (Vice President)

The Rainbow/Pelcher administration's first move (after taking over the entire east wing of HQ), was to take care of new Staff Idiot Wozzlo. 

Wozzlo (Placed in Blender - DEAD)

Fortunately, Wozzlo was able to be turned into a delicious smoothie, which was shared by Dr. Rainbow and his new hit-man, Nolan Pelcher. 

Please accept the reign of Oscar Rainbow, as any detractors will be immediately killed and eaten.

Him hired

Bunker 14 - Longtime celery map salesman Hin Him has been hired as staff Boris Klupcheck, pending a Monday morning mustard stain search.

"We've got four more gallons of yogurt due to arrive Thursday afternoon, then we can finish the room, and finally have our promised yogurt lunch break," said Hey Jerk construction foreman Pal Fimply Jr.













Accountant Marv, who lives hanging off of Him's lone ear, was hired as a staff accountant on a temporary basis, replacing Griffin Pepano, who was eaten by a giraffe.
