YouTube, Google's new premier online grassroots video service yesterday became "Jack's" property after the Jack in the Box Corporation paid quite-a-chunk-of-change to Google for the YouTube website. Jack himself (Jack Cornerstone, CEO of Jack in the Box) told reporters that he was pleased with the deal especially after he only had to write a check to Google for 2.7 billion dollars.
"We had a heck of a time cashing THAT check" Google executives said telling the WKRQ news team,
"Apparently Jack In the Box is in the Chex system, bounced checks, fraudulent purchases WE don't know but luckily once we showed our GOOGLE badges to Bank of America they gave us 2.7 billion dollars AND a lollipop."
When asked what "Jack In the Box" plans to do with YouTube, "Jack" (Jack Cornerstone without the Ping Pong Ball head) replied "run Jumbo Jack commercials inside every YouTube video of course."
McDonalds, taken by suprise by the Jack/YouTube purchase has already filed an anti-trust lawsuit with the FCC claiming that their burger sales will suffer now that Jack can daily blast millions of Jumbo Jack commercials across the internet for free.
In the OLD days Surfers submitted videos to YouTube ranging from a tipsy Barney Bush falling off the barn at the ranch to a two year old 'Beyonce' bursting out of a china cabinet singing "Let me Luv Ya Bay-bee". Now, according to Jack every YouTube video will be prefaced by a nutritional announcement, that announcement being,
"Burger King and McDonalds burgers will kill ya, come to Jack in the Box instead for some HEALTHY grease".
Burger King, McDonalds AND What-a-Burger all plan to appeal the YouTube sale.
