At least we got bin Laden and the WMD, or this horrible war would have

Illuminating?

On CNN during the commercial break just after Hillary's speech
Saturday, there was a Remax ad in which a young man looking for a
place to "entertain the ladies" found himself surrounded by three
older women drinking tea and eating pastries. The young man looked
grossed out and the ad went on to make the point that Remax can help
find the right place. The ad served it's purpose of leaving the
viewer remembering the company name. But I can't imagine much worse
placement for an ad, *because* it left this viewer remembering the
company name and context and timing forever.

The absolute barrage over the past 18 months has just gone beyond the
pale leaving a number women (who, like myself, have considered
themselves normally self-effacing, up for a good humored joke, yea,
one of the guys) hyper sensitive to such disrespect as has been shown
to Hillary in particular and women in general. I have *never* before
felt bonded with women.

An attorney got home late one evening after a very long day trying to
get a stay of execution for a client, James Wright, who was due to be
hanged for murder at midnight. His last-minute plea for clemency to
the governor had failed and he was feeling worn out and depressed.

As soon as he got through the door at home, his wife started on him
about "what time of night do you call this? where have you been?" and
so on.

Too shattered to play his usual role in this familiar ritual, he went
and poured himself a shot of whisky and headed off for a long, hot
soak in the bathtub pursued by the predictable sarcastic remarks.

While he was in the bath, the phone rang. The wife answered and was
told that her husband's client had been granted his stay of execution
after all. Finally realizing what a day he must have had, she decided
to go upstairs to give him the good news. As she opened the bathroom
door, she was greeted by the sight of her husband's rear end as he was
bent over naked drying his legs and feet.

"They're not hanging Wright tonight," she said.

He whirled around and screamed, "FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, WOMAN, DON'T YOU
EVER STOP??!!"
