First there was Louis Arsmtrong (420 ghits) (Louis Arsmtrong was known for his cheery disposition), and now there’s Lance Arsmstrong (4,570). The correct spelling is not armstrong but arsematron–not a pejorative for back-door betty-burglars, but, by analogy with armatron, orgasmatron, orgatron, and other forgottrons, a term for pop-eyed aliens with suspiciously substantial wind reserves. The investigation into Lance’s body chemistry is a mere front: lancer is launch, and Sarko knows he needs to get to the bottom of this before the nation of Obummer lets fly a fearful airborne assault on the Republic.
