Travistani President in Hysterics
Over Funny Street Sign


TRAVAMABAD (DPI) - Nation of Travistan President Travis was described by aides as "doubled over" and "busting a gut" over a photo he took of a funny street sign while on an Official State Weekender. The photo, recently back from the developing desk at Longs Drugs, clearly shows that the street's name is "PEE," according to the still-chuckling President Travis, speaking from the presidential Corolla in Longs' parking lot. While a dubious group of Hawaiian-language "experts" represented by his wife insist that the street's name is actually "Pe'e" and pronounced peh-eh, President Travis reportedly holds the firm stance that "pee" is a lot funnier. "My only regret is that she [the Travistani first lady] didn't let me get out of the car at the corner of 'Pee' and 'Poipu,' because she didn't want to be seen with me at a busy intersection, taking a picture of the funny sign," said the leader of the sovereign apartment-nation, shaking his head. "Because 'Poipu' sounds like something you'd have after eating too much poi," he added, again falling into a fit of laughter. This past weekend's sighting launched the nation's largest celebration of sign-related mirth since last year when the president suggested that "Bürpenfahrt" would be a funny name for a street in Germany.
