This is perhaps one of the most amazing photos I have ever seen - it is true that a picture tells a 1000 words.

In many ways it seems to sum up the excesses of the 90's.

Could someone Photoshop it so it looks like they were the recipients of projectile vomit? They deserve that at the very least.

Barney shouldn’t be too worried about Dodd behind him.If Ted Kennedy starts to move in from the front,that would be a cause for concern..

I am noting the happy face of MY US Senator, Chris Dodd, in some type of joyful rapture, his head peaking over Barney’s right shoulder, totally thrilled that he’s screwing me & all his other constituents.
