As I've stated before, if nominated, I will not run, and if elected, I will not serve. (Still, an empty White House sounds better than what we've got...)

Hey, compared to the Bozo we've got now as President, I like Bill's style! Empty White House, Bill Scott, same difference. Either would be an improvement.

Well, everyone knows about the homoeroticism of snake-handling (a cigar may sometimes be just a cigar, but a snake is always a penis), so mocking it is rather boring. |

Thank you very much, Ricky! When a project passes my "choking test" by making me laugh uncontrollably or spray coffee out of my nose as I'm working on it, then have high hopes. Though sometimes they pass this test, yet people don't find them funny. Then I just blame the problem on flaws in my own brain.
I do love to sprinkle unexpected non sequiturs into my humor. (Since I do the same when writing something serious, perhaps I should stick to humor.)
Ghost-writing for Dawkins was fun.
I love the Snakes on a Plane graphic! It makes it all so simple to understand.

Because the cute cuddly pets you keep might object to us poking fun at their friend and feeder.
Plus, one of us might need a blood transfusion that contains high levels of several types of anti-venom. We wouldn't want to piss you off.

The goal was accomplished, numb nuts. We took down Sadam once and for all. We destroyed what was left of any WMD program, mission accomplished and time to get out. I agree with Dave W, we were sold on taking out Sadam and WMD's as the mission. Not installing a working democracy using the US military. We have accomplished the military mission. If we weren't so bogged down with that crap we could have already done the same thing to Iran and been home by now.

As I have said many times on this forum, the initial invasion, all for it. Terminating Sadam, good job. Seek and Destroy any and all chances of ever having or making WMD's before leaving and then goodbye. Installing a democracy using the US military is a proven pipe dream.

Maybe, but it's not coming from this forum.

No, no, no, I meant my other hobby: making bongs out of liquor bottles and writing sneering, in-your-face letters to John Ashcroft. I sign them, "Washington Irving." Sometimes, I sign them "Irving Washington."
