And while we're at it, let's get rid of the 22nd Amendment that
says you can't run for president more than twice? Because that's
just hatin'. If a guy can win the popular vote, he should be
able to run, or that's not a democracy. Bill Clinton should be
able to run for president in 2008, period. It would be worth it
just to see him debate Hillary.

My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I
kept looking over at an attractive, but obviously drunken, woman tossing
back drink after drink as she sat alone at a nearby table.
"Do you know her?" my wife asked.
"Yes," I sighed. "She's an old girlfriend of mine. She started
drinking
soon after we broke up 15 years ago, and I don't think she's been
sober since."
"My God!" exclaimed my wife, "that poor woman!" "Who would
think a person
could go on celebrating for that long!"

I checked into my hotel at the tail end of another three-week business
trip to Eastern Europe. I was lonely, and I'd been on the road a long
time, so I thought I'd hire one of those girls you see advertised on
the back of the cab receipts. You know, from one of the escort services.
I grabbed a card on my way in. It was an ad for a young woman calling
herself Eronique, a lovely woman in the photo. She had all the right
curves in all the right places, beautiful long hair, graceful legs and
a friendly, inviting smile. You know what I mean. So, I'm in my room
and figure, what the hey, I'll give her a call.
"Hello?" the woman says. God, she sounded sexy.
"Hi," I said. "I have your massage advertisement, and I'd like to have
you come to my hotel room for a massage -- no, hold on, let me be honest
with you. I'm in town all alone, I've been traveling for weeks, and
what I need is sex. I want it hard, I want it hot, and I want it now!
I want hinky-dinky the whole night long. You name it, we'll do it.
Bring your toys, we'll do everything in your bag of tricks. We'll drink
champagne all night! Tie me up and whip me! Strap me on! Cover me in
chocolate, whip cream and cherries -- we'll do anything you want, baby!
Now, how does that sound?"
"That sounds terrific, sir," the woman replied, "But for an outside line
you first have to press 9."

A new Home Depot Scam --
Hey, guys just wanted to throw a heads up to you. I know some of you
shop at Home Depot.
Last month I was the victim of a clever scam while shopping. I reported
it to the police, and they confirm I'm not the only victim.
Here's how the scam works: two good-looking teenage girls approach you in
the parking lot as you are putting your shopping bags into your car. They
are dressed in almost nothing, with their breasts falling out of their shirts.
They tell you a friend dropped them off, but it's the wrong store and
they need a ride to a store nearby. You agree and they get into your car.
As you're giving them a ride, one of them changes her shirt in the car, and
while you're distracted, the other one steals your wallet.
I had my wallet stolen Monday of last week, then twice on Thursday and
again on Saturday, and very likely again this upcoming weekend. So, tell
all your friends and neighbors to watch out and be careful!

"We never really see time. We see only clocks. If you say this
object moves, what you really mean is that this object is here
when the hand of your clock is here, and so on. We say we
measure time with clocks, but we see only the hands of the
clocks, not time itself. And the hands of a clock are a physical
variable like any other. So in a sense we cheat because what we
really observe are physical variables as a function of other
physical variables, but we represent that as if everything is
evolving in time. What happens with the Wheeler-DeWitt equation
is that we have to stop playing this game. Instead of
introducing this fictitious variable -- time, which itself is
not observable -- we should just describe how the variables are
related to one another. The question is, Is time a fundamental
property of reality or just the macroscopic appearance of
things? I would say it's only a macroscopic effect. It's
something that emerges only for big things."

cow from his car. When a highway patrolman came by and saw the
cow struggling, he shot him between the eyes. The farmer

What's especially odd is that, around this time, Speed was in
need of a sequel, which meant it needed a script about a
fast-moving vehicle, explosions and terrorists. Dark Territory
would have fit, but it was turned into a sequel to Under Siege
instead. This left Speed 2 in need of a script, so they used
what was originally supposed to be the script for the third Die
Hard movie, about a boat being hijacked. This obviously left Die
Hard 3 in need of a script, so they gave Bruce Willis a sassy
black partner and used the script that was originally going to
be the fourth Lethal Weapon movie. This obviously left Lethal
Weapon 4 without a script, but apparently they went ahead and
shot that movie without one.

were washed up on a desert island: four Asians and an American.
In splitting up their duties, one Asian says hell fish; another

cook. The American assigns himself the job of eating.The modern
economist looks at this situation and says the American is key
to the whole thing, says Schiff. Because without him to eat, the
four Asians would be unemployed.
