Robot Intercession

Drew salutes our robot overlords. By Drew GallagherHUMORISTEmail Drew I’m having surgery tomorrow. I don’t particularly like that phrasing because it makes it sound as though I am actively pursuing the removal of 12-18 inches of my bowel. I’d prefer to leave my bowel just as it is, but unfortunately when I developed diverticulitis a […]

The Grand Poobah of Reviewers – Part 2

Drew continues his longwinded (err, “in-depth”) interview with Ron Charles who works for the Washington Post. Clearly, Drew wants his job. After his interview, Charles has nothing to worry about. Read the first part When last we left Washington Post book critic Ron Charles, he was sitting for the sculpting of his marble bust to […]

Interview with Ron Charles – Grand Poobah of Reviewers

In one fell swoop, Drew manages to insult the FXBG Advance, the city of Fredericksburg, the Card Cellar, and the best-selling author since Moses. See what we editors put up with? When they finally construct the pantheon of the world’s greatest book critics, the marble bust of Washington Post book reviewer Ron Charles will certainly […]

Tally ho! July 4, and All That

Drew bends an elbow with a Brit visiting the U.S. for Traitor’s Day (Actually, Independence Day – but it’s all in how you look at it). It’s a one-of-a-kind July 4 celebration. For most of the world, July 4th is like any other day. Not many Americans fire up the grill or pick crabs for […]

CRICKET’S BIG DAY

Humor doesn’t always lead to people falling down and laughing. Sometimes, humor can take a darker tone. Such is the case with today’s column by Drew. Hi, my name is Cricket and I’m a 14-month-old wirehaired pointer who lives in South Dakota. Today is my big day! Mistress Kristi told me that today she’s going […]

VOTE for Tyrone

NEWS FLASH!!! Drew’s a liberal, who writes liberal tripe! Drew from King George likes to tabulate the number of times I mention Republican versus Democrat politicians in unflattering terms in the humor column, and he has stated that the column tends to skew left, along with having a distinct reliance on Tyrone and his inability […]

Let That Pride Flag, and Those Dolphins, Fly!

It’s Pride Month, and Drew’s investigating gay dolphins. Yes, they’re a thing – especially in Sarasota, Florida! What will Ron DeSantis do? Will Spotsylvania ban “Island of the Blue Dolphins”? In honor of June being LGBTQ+ Pride Month, we cast our eyes to the state of Florida—a bastion of acceptance and respect for all communities […]

The Kids Guide to Humor Columns

Blue bathing suits? Sleepy Joe? Donald Trump as Robert Redford in the Natural? Must be Drew Time! As I grow older, my memory has started to fade. I can remember the blue bathing suit my wife was wearing at the pool the first time I met her nearly 25 years ago, but I’ll be damned […]

Searching for Cornzizzle

In an ever-broadening search for ways to pay for college, Drew Gallagher finds himself in South Carolina, where cornhole now rivals the Clemson-South Carolina football game in popularity. In one of my other unpaid performances in life, I am a high school baseball coach. Being a humorist and drinker of beer helps in that capacity. […]

It’s Drew Time! I Am Not a Robot

Today, Drew turns to AI to write his column. Or does he? The End. (Humorist Drew Gallagher has written for the FXBG Advance for nearly six months and he was wondering if his collected “Drew Times” were enough for AI software to write a “humor” column in his voice and on topics he has mentioned […]
