Back

I'm back now from my week at the beach house, slightly more leathery looking, relaxed, and straining to overcome jetlag (coming off the transatlantic flight straight into work always sounds good in theory...) and to catch up on what I've missed while I was in No Internet Land. Suffice it to say I did not appreciate how much material the various US networks had ready-to-go for Mr Reagan's obituaries. Staggering.

I'll get something up today or tomorrow, but for now I thought you'd like this joke I received in last week's issue of Popbitch:

President Bush gets out of his helicopter in front of the White House carrying a baby pig under each arm.

The Marine guard snaps to attention, salutes, and says: "Nice pigs, sir."

Bush replies: "These are not pigs, these are Texan Razorback Hogs. I got one for Vice-President Cheney, and I got one for Defence Secretary Rumsfeld."

The Marine again snaps to attention, salutes, and says, "Nice trade, sir."

LOL!!!! The Marine might have something there...

Now that's funny.

Can we trade Bush for one of those hogs as well?
