The woman should be thankful the guy does stuff resulting in wet towels. Imagine if he didn't. Then he'd be a Newsweak subscriber.

Speaking of PA politics, did you hear the rumor about Specter retiring due to health problems?

[theDentist]

Which photo would that be?

It was a wanted poster :)

i can vouch for xsteen, she was not driving in Georgetown on Saturday, with or without me. but this is a few blocks from where she goes to HS and it doesnt' surprise me that somone was hit. Joggers, runners, bike riders in DC do not obey traffic signs or signals and frequently dart out in front of you. this is my biggest fear, for myself or anyone dear to me, to hit someone would be beyond bearing.

Good day, xsmommy:

In a loud voice I must profess.
There is a surfeit of peruile licentiousness
Within the party of Jackasses, gross and vile.

The culture has been flipped on its head.
What were once vices are now virtues
Some have said.

Under Slick Willie, Pederasty became chic.
STDs have become as common as Piles.
Blowjobs ain't sex, so spake the Uber
President, ex.

Subsidizing bastards in quantum digits
Then murdering half in taxpayer funded style
Became the main cog in Hillary's Health Care Widget.
No wonder the DNC is in such a Traction-less mess!

that struck me as a dark Poe-like pome. A++++

[xsmommy]

which leads me to suggest that a future pome of your's, written in such a style, might contain the words Quoth the Jackass, NEVERMORE.... ; )

[MoochPooch]

For licentiousness, nothing beats some of the rants in the DUmmie pages -- especially those of the trolls.

[Gabz]

How's this

for some "Creative accounting"????????

BWWAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[xsmommy]

[xsmommy]

[Gabz]

I thought it appropriate for class :)

It does have a Poe-like meter and style, xsmommy.

You know how much I enjoy a challenge. I'd be honored to give it a shot!

Jack.

The Therapist is my new favorite, along with the Huffington's Toast website.

Speaking of PA politics, did you hear the rumor about Specter retiring due to health problems?

Don't tease!

[NeoCaveman]

It's not a good thing. The governor of PA is a DemocRAT

[American Quilter]

Oh, that's right! Darn. I was so delighted by the idea of getting rid of Specter that I forgot how his replacement would be selected.

And to think we could have had Pat Toomey in that Senate slot...
