The McPoodle Story
CBS has allowed us to reprint a transcript
of their story about
the McPoodle Dynasty and it's ultimate decline.
Andy Rooney: Some people have heard of
Chapelsnap:
Man on NYC street: Yeah, I think I drove through it once.
Rooney and some people haven't...
Man on Subway: Snapplechap? What's that?
Rooney: Either way, we've all heard the name "McPoodle". But
the small town of Chapelsnap is vital for our story, because everyone in the
McPoodle family was born there.
Bill Oakenthorpe:I mean it's a shame what they became, but it's not
our towns fault what they turned into. We loved them. We repected them.
It was the McPoodles themselves who are responsible.
Rooney: Bill Oakenthorpe should know, he grew up with the
youngest of the clan: Shawna McPoodle.
Oakenthorpe: I mean, I'd go over their
house after school and it
was like... chaos. I can't believe that with
all that exposure to their
ways that I turned out all right. Of course, I wasn't in the house long
enough to be rendered impotent.
Rooney Professor Milton Shanghi, local historian pertaining to all
things Chapelsnap explains:
Milton Shanghi: Soon after the first McPoodle arrived on the
shores of this country, the entire clan arrived to join him.
Rooney: That first man, Phillipe McPoodle, put up the first
lean-to on the spot that is now Chapelsnap in 1854. Soon, his three
brothers, Mac, Shod and Litrench, joined him, and the town charter was
established. So how, from these humble beginnings, did this family end up
extorting 56 kilos of Uranium 235 from the government.
Shanghi: Of course, every physicist knows the name of Enrico
McPoodle, who designed the tailfins that were eventually left off of ICBM
missiles in 1954. Pressure from other members of the family forced
McPoodle to take drastic measures. Only by lining his kitchen with
radioactive waste could he hope to avoid their treachery.
Oakenthorpe: His motives were pure. Had he not made the entire town
uninhabitable from being irradiated, Dr. Enrico McPoodle would the true hero
of this century.
Rooney Recent evidence indicates that ground water contamination
from the neighboring town ofWeltsville had afflicted the McPoodle's drinking
water for decades
before. It is perhaps this that influenced their insane actions.
Shanghi And of course the children paid the
price.
Rooney: So how did this once illustrious
family end up on the
runways of local strip clubs...
Zambra McPoodle I am not a whore.
Rooney ... and porno movies?
File Footage: Sexy McPoodle.
Wille McPoodle I mean how else could you end
up man you know? I
mean it was like Mom and Dad gave us a bong for
Christmas and we're like 5
years old and totally strung out on New Years Eve.
I mean, really.
Rooney Oldest Son of the last generation
of McPoodles, Wille
McPoodle is a newspaper columnist in nearby
Springfield.
Wille McPoodle I mean I can't blame Zambra or Sexy. I mean, with a
name
like Sexy, did she have any choice but to become a porn star? Come on.
Rooney: Lesley Stall gives a live interview with Shawna McPoodle,
next week on Sixty Minutes.
