The difference is, with a bumper sticker there's isn't time properly to set up the first story's target assumption for the joke. It's all second story, you see.

Hank, if you find an AltaVista translator that works on this post, would you send me a copy?

Because, of course, the Preisdent would do to his boxer shorts what Clinton did to the blue dress if the report were_true_.

P.S. Unless . . . . OF COURSE! You're right, Hank! They FOUND the WMD but are hiding the evidence until just before the election so that Bush can claim vindication and ride the groundsell to victory. It's so obvious now. How fiendish of them! I am such a naif.

He doesn't have until November. Indictments are coming down from the World Court probably by September. He can only hope the Sharon trial gets docketed first.

I was listening to a story about the UN vote on Israeli's wall last night and thinking, can't we all agree that Israeli can build whatever wall it wants on land that everyone agrees is its own, but has no business effectively annexing territory?

And, as I predicted earlier today, they've all been found shoved up Hussein's rear end. I understand the X-rays are amazing.

is this the problem? i mean this is the null set, right?

or is this? does the wall inherently require more land be taken?
