May Sweeps Episode Starring Wynton Marsalis!

May sweeps is traditionally when all the gum-related websites put up their most shocking, ratings-grabbing posts.  I may look down my nose at the cheesy melodrama, but I'm in the game, and I'm playing to win.

So, while this photo of Wynton Marsalis is fine, what it really needs is...

Explosions!  The gum dangling perilously at the edge!  And a stunning revelation:  Wynton Marsalis is my real father!

Will Wynton escape?  Will he ever get to meet me, his long-lost son?  Will the gum plunge to its fiery destruction? 

And what about the gentleman with the cane?  Is he harboring a dark secret that could tear apart our families, our community, and America itself?

Stay tuned for the next CelebriGum installment, in which all these questions will be ignored.

  2. Yes, Karl, it does seem dire. Though now that I think of it, I have no idea what was exploding.

    What was exploding? Why, the popularity of CelebriGum, of course!

  8. Strike that last comment. It was meant for the photo of Seth Meyers. I will move it over there, post haste.
