This one is from Ron.
Two cargo ships, one carrying a load of red paint and the other a shipment of blue, collided today near the remote island of Whairda Fugawe.
No one was injured, but several crewmembers were …
… marooned.

When I read this one it gave me the blues.
More like a purple?
Legend has it that the Indian tribe in F Troop were originally named the Fugawes, but the censor wouldn’t allow it .
Johnny Carson got away with using it on the Tonight Show, though.
I have been told it was the Fukawi tribe. They came THIS close to getting past the censors before they caught on and the writers had to change it to the Hekawi tribe.
A colorful brush with death.
Good that the crew members didn’t completely blanch out!
That pun’s a mix of purple prose and bilgy bathos.
