Satire Genius Continues Suffering Writer's Block

Tom Cox has been in trouble before: Drug addiction, IRS contracts, the Mafia, M.A.D.D, The Boy Scouts of America, The New Yorker and many others have tried in vain to put a stop to his profoundly influential and much-lauded career.

None of them has succeeded.

No, it is something much less tangible that has put the fear of God into Cox: Writer's block.

"It is ridiculous. I am so goddamn funny I crack myself up at the drop of a hat. I have all these great ideas, and then have a total lack of structure in which to place them: it's really driving me nuts!" Cox stated by phone from his private helicopter en route to the Faux-Newz World Headquarters in Reading, PA "But at least I am in good company. I mean Hemmingway, Steinbeck, Ethan Hawke, Pliny The Elder, lots of the greats suffered from writer's block at some point in their careers. Hell, William Burroughs got so blocked he turned gay, for crying out loud. I hope that doesn't happen to me." Cox sobbed just before hanging up in seeming desperation.

Writers Block
"Hell, William Burroughs Got So
Blocked He Turned Gay, For Crying
Out Loud. I Hope That Doesn't
Happen To Me.", Said Cox

Faux-Newz Editor "The Editor", between editing one article and editing another had this editorial advice for Cox: "Try more illicit sex with hookers and other high-risk types. Try stealing some expensive stuff. Try punching some cops or something. What you need is to shake up your secure little world, loosen up the brain a bit. At least get yourself good and drunk. And stop fucking whining about you writer's block, while you're at it. Now BEAT IT!! I've got editing to do here, jerkass!"

Cox, while skulking away from his editor's office was heard to say: "You're just pissed because you have a small dick and my enormous hog makes it necessary to have specially tailored pants. I put this rag where it is today, and I'll tear it back down to a miniscule internet presence if you mess with me!!!!"

Fortunately, Mr. Cox has several outlets for his massive creativity including playing lead oboe on tour with Canadian superstar Bryan Adams, his position as Head of Oncology at Johns Hopkins, and the regular hot dates he has with Fetish Goddess Midori, which his wife is totally cool about.

"I'll be back, you can make book on that. Get it? Make book! HA HA HA HA!!! It's writer's-block joke!" At the very least, we can thank the Maker that Tom Cox has his award winning sense of humor to fall back on.
