I'm tired, tired of being admired. Tired of love uninspired ... Let's face it, I'm beat!

Sure we've read small quotes that indicate no brain activity, but this really gives us a clear view. And now for your reading amusement:
Why I believe Hillary
I think that yesterday and today I have heard a lot of snickering on campus over the following quote, leaked to the press from Hillary Clinton's memoirs:
Gulping for air, I started crying and yelling at him. "What do you mean? What are you saying? Why did you lie to me?" This was her reaction when President Clinton told her that he had been serviced by an intern. As I say, I believe I have heard a lot of snickering. Nothing I could actually suspend anyone for, but when I went to the Chomsky Building yesterday to visit my office, I had the distinct impression that laughter had been had only a moment before by the hangers-on of Summer, and that the laughter had been, well, at one of my heroes.
I am not ashamed to say that. Hillary and I are ... soulmates. I know what it is like to gulp for air like that. Let me give you a reason:
When I was an undergraduate, and as ready to believe boys as first-week freshman, I moved in with a slender young misogynist with firm buttocks and deep blue eyes.
I loved those blue eyes.
He told me he had a history of lighting matches near kerosene and watching linens go up in flames. I told him that he would stop doing that, and that I would make him stop. Once my sister came to visit, and he lit her suitcase on fire. It made such heat and smoke that he had to explain himself to a judge. Of course, I sat in the courtroom, very still, hoping he would charm his way free. "I've caused burning in our relationship," he told the judge as he looked at me. "Let's leave it at that." For some reason, the judge gave him 30 days in jail.
Later our neighborhood post office was burned down. A drugstore, too. And afterward my misogynist friend smelled like postage stamps and Trojans. When I asked him about it, he said he had just mailed a safe-sex kit to a friend in Laramie, Wyoming, where all the kids had was abstinence. I believed him.
Then one afternoon I came home from class and saw our apartment house on fire, and all of the residents blamed Joey - that was my dear, sweet, misogynist's name. It took a long time for him to come to trial, and just before the trial he admitted to me that he was guilty.
And yes, I gulped for air. I gulped, you know? And then I continued to gulp. I hypergulped. The policeman guarding Joey shouted over his walkie-talkie: "Gulping woman!" and paramedics in stethoscopes and pony tails came running.
How could he? I thought. Who would have thought that a slender boy with firm buttocks and deep blue eyes could be a pyromaniac? What were the signs?
And here's another reason Hillary and I are soulmates. I've often thought that, well, I'd make a good president, too. Belverton U. Press
You're right JL, the Guild should rule the world! ;-)
A remarkable article by Dr David Kelly, published for the first time today, reveals the government scientist's true views ahead of the war on Iraq and his expert assessment of the threat posed by Saddam Hussein. In a development which could have a major influence on the Hutton inquiry, Kelly said that, although the threat was 'modest', he believed military action was the only way to 'conclusively disarm' the country.
He also argued that there was evidence Saddam still had chemical and biological weapons and regime change, the policy of the United States, was the only way to stop the Iraqi dictator.
The article was written for a major report on Iraq being compiled a few weeks before the war. Kelly had agreed to write it anonymously, but the piece was never published.
The BBC is complete scum.
The good folks had better ratchet their satire up a notch, it's too close to reality.
