It's all the guy-in-the-middle's fault

A rare, what appeared be, an earthquake rocked Washington, D.C. yesterday shattering scores of windows and forcing both governmental and civilian inhabitants to scurry for safety. There were no reports of injuries, deaths or major damage. The epicenter was pinpointed right at the Capitol Building.

However, officials at the U.S. Geological Survey stated that although the tremors felt like an earthquake and measured 5.8 on the Richter Scale, they weren't a "natural" phenomenon. An immediate investigation by the Secret Service, FBI, and AT&T discovered that the tremors were the result of Senators and Congresspersons hanging up on their mistresses and "boy-toys" at the same time.

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
