The Great Hodgepodge Society Membership Drive. The phrase brings joy to the ears of those starving for humor and boils to the faces of those named Leroy. There hasn't been a bigger Hodgepodge Society show yet and we'd love to thank everyone who could have been there. Instead of rubbing in all of the fun everyone missed, we'd rather SHOW you all of the fun you missed. Please enjoy some pics from the show and check back soon. We finally got our video camera back from that snooty pawn shop owner and there's video from the show a'comin'! Remember, the Hodgepodge Society always needs members. Why, the next member could even be YOU...probably...well at least on a probationary basis...and pending a credit approval.

Pictures from the Great Hodgepodge Society Membership Drive!

Click on the pics to enlarge.
The Musical Mastery of Uke Skywalker and Tuba Fett. Look for them on their World Tour...and by world we mean Utah...and by tour we mean extended incarceration.
Sir Joseph Lyons Esq. Humorist, Punsmith, Former Sleestak. If there's anything Sir Joseph likes, it's recruiting new members. I there's anything he REALLY likes, it's dressing up like Robocop.
Lord Robert Von Isenberg. Humorist, Gagman, Maple Syrup Engineer. Lord Robert was overwhelmed heading up the Membership Drive...so much so he still gets night terrors about it. It's really starting to bug his pets.

 
Sir Joseph is typically never easy to upset. Unless you bring up that time he spent living in a nursing home as Mrs. Henrietta Nusbaum. He's not proud about it. It was an insurance thing.
Sir Joseph and Lord Robert demonstrate their Kabuki theater for inner city children. While thier intentions are pure, their swords are sharp...way too sharp for amateur theater.
Here are the buttholes from the MishMash Brootherhood. Thankfully, the Winnipeg Proviso prevented them from harming the audience in any sort of irreperable way.

 
Sir Joseph and Lord Robert enjoy a good "Prankster's Handshake". They can't ever help themselves whenever they're in the presence of pie. Unfortunately, the MishMash Brotherhood poisoned these particular pies. Jerks.
This is Clem Entwhistle, the lucky audience member who got picked to join the Hodgepodge Society at random from the audience. He was an awfully enthusiastic fellow. Excellent taste in socks too.
Sir Joseph and Lord Robert are straight from the "Old Skool" of humorists. We're not sure what that means, but we're pretty sure it involves poor spelling.

 
The Hodgepodge Society opted to start the evening with a huge musical number. Normally, Hodgepodge musical numbers involve tremendous bodily harm and shattered relationships. This one was no exception.
Abandoned characters from the game Mortal Comedy-bat. Sir Joseph's special move? The Curly Shuffle...of Death. Lord Robert's? The Kidney Punch...of Discomfort.
Lord Provost Everett McNewton McCalkins was confined to a wheelchair for reasons too horrible to describe...or type...or recollect. Now I must go weep openly.

 
A tomahawk throw is merely part of the grueling Hodgepodge Society initiation rituals. Clem did ok at this part. If you consider soiling your trousers as doing "ok".
Recruiting new members into the Hodgepodge Society is like some sort of wonderful drug. A sweet, wonderful drug. A drug that will never let you down. Oh druggity, drug, drug. I have to go call my sponsor.
Sir Joseph reads his last will and testament to the audience. Being poisend by jerks gives one a great deal of prespective. All Lord Robert could think about was balogna.

 
Lord Robert succumbs to his pie poisoning. For a fleeting moment, the world was short one Hodgepodge Society member, which caused several small earthquakes in Portugal. We're...REALLY close to Portugal
The MishMash Brotherhood foiled again! Oh those guys. All they wanna do is murder us. Good thing Clem was an Antitoxicologist and saved our lives. He was random AND convenient.
Lord Praetor Davidicus Ranallo, CPA wheels out his evil cohort. After the show they hopped into their van and drove to Maine. Some say they opened up their own B&B, while others feel they probably watched Mad Max and fell asleep with their capes on.

 
Lord Praetor Davidicus Ranallo, CPA. He used to do the Hodgepodge Society's taxes and such but he had to be a big baby after he got horribly disfigured during one of our joke experiments. Baby.
The motley crew of the Great Hodgepodge Society Membership Drive. Sure they tried to kill each other and nearly died and soiled their trousers, but DANG IT, people were entertained. Or so we assume...people leaving early means they're entertained right?
Unfortunately, the MishMash Brotherhood is always looking for new members. Their health benefits are crummy and the only 401k they have is a giant boot labeled "401k" that kicks people in the crotch at random. The have a hell of a Columbus Day picnic though.
