Good Christ Almighty. I feel the need to say that all I did was read something on the board and, reminded of a well-known joke, posted "hey this is like that joke that all of y'all probably are familiar with." I didn't try to rewrite the joke to sub in Scalia and Cheney. Apparently I committed the unforgivable sin of not tracking down the exact correct wording and the people involved. I remembered that someone famous was involved but, since I wouldn't want to slander that person in case like their grandkid or something was on here and would get traumatized and start insisting either that I'm a warmonger or I harbor terrorists in my spare bedroom, said it might be apocryphal.
I probably should not have skipped lunch.
