..He had hopes for hot news from Al Gore's attractive daughters, but "they turned out to be total bores" (read: not scandal-prone). He says he fears that the twins might turn out to be "goody-goody" as well.

Funny, I had the distinct impression they simply didn't cover anything that might embarass the Gores. Silly me.

Have you checked your snailmail box? My Bisque and brush set arrived yesterday. They had said Dec. 9 would be expected delivery date so maybe the "Treasure boxes" will be early, too! Can't wait; a girl can never have too many fun colors to play with.

To: *The GUILD
Proclamation of Amnesty and Pardon Granted to
All Persons of European Descent

Whereas, Europeans kept my forebears in bondage some three centuries toiling without pay,

Whereas, Europeans ignored the human rights pledges of the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution,

Whereas, the Emancipation Proclamation, the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Amendments meant little more than empty words,

Therefore, Americans of European ancestry are guilty of great crimes against my ancestors and their progeny.

But, in the recognition Europeans themselves have been victims of various and sundry human rights violations to wit: the Norman Conquest, the Irish Potato Famine, Decline of the Hapsburg Dynasty, Napoleonic and Czarist adventurism, and gratuitous insults and speculations about the intelligence of Europeans of Polish descent,

I, Walter E. Williams, do declare full and general amnesty and pardon to all persons of European ancestry, for both their own grievances, and those of their forebears, against my people.

Therefore, from this day forward Americans of European ancestry can stand straight and proud knowing they are without guilt and thus obliged not to act like damn fools in their relationships with Americans of African ancestry.



Walter E. Williams, Gracious and Generous Grantor

Thanx for passing on Walter's proclaimation. I always enjoy listening to him when he fills in for Rush. Altho, I would say, he appears to be just a tad bit condensending. I could do without his talk of how he had to get permission from the Mrs. for this and for that.

It looks like a cat fight might be brewing:

PELOSI WATCH Nancy could be Hillary's worst nightmare
Pittsburgh Tribune Review


The smart political fortune tellers are betting that Hillary Clinton's sleep these days is being disturbed, not by Bill, but by a real apparition — that of 62-year-old fiery, modern Italian-American grandmother, Nancy Pelosi, now the leader of the Democrats in the House of Representatives.

Contributing to Hillary's nightmare is the specter of the Democratic Party, pondering how to turn its recent electoral defeats into a victory, looking for new leaders and finding hope in the party's new alliterative chant: "Pelosi for President."

Nancy Pelosi, who (rumors of botox notwithstanding) looks a fabulous 40 on TV and a well-made-up 50 in person, is the highest-ranking woman in the history of the U.S. Congress. Her very existence has created a storm, with naysayers equating her current political stance with the Saul-to-Paul conversion on the road to Damascus and others asking how often leopards can change their spots.

Well, if you overlook the Gore girls' dope smoking, liquor chugging and all-out partying (like the press did), I guess they were fairly boring.

I have practically been sitting on my porch every day waiting for my Treasured Pearls Bare Escentuals to arrive. I don't know if they will be USPS or UPS, so I have a UPS signature note on my front door just in case.

I can't wait! It's like an early Christmas for our faces!

Next time you place an order with these folks put a note in telling them it's time the put out a catalog. I'm really curious about this stuff, but I certainly don't have the time to sit infront of the tube waiting for it to appear on the Shopping Channel.

Actually they do have a catalogue. I will order one for you. I will also see if I can get you an extra video tape.

Once you go Bare Escentuals you never go back.

I don't have time to attempt to bring life support in, either.

The sky in the west is grey, and my shoulders are aching. It seems a change in the weather is in store for us.

Place a dish towel over the candle wax and iron it on low. This works great on carpet and just about anything that gets stuck with candle wax.

It's so funny that J-Ho is worried about Ben cheating. She's married to one man and engaged to Ben.

Isn't that cheating?

She cheated on husband #1 with Puff Daddy Piddly Widdly, so she's quite familiar with the concept.
