Republican conservatism is so far out of the mainstream, it is serving
as a drainage ditch somewhere.


Hey Harry, that's a nice play-on quote. did you alter it yourself?


Here's the origional:

""Wiley Drake is far out of the mainstream," Land said. "In fact, he's
in a drainage ditch somewhere."

Indeed, Tim...not to cast aspersions, but I leave crumbs around for the
dumb****s here to google...it makes them think they have 'puter smarts.

Option B is that I am trying to get an older version of a sig generator
to work with my mac *and* thunderbird. So far, I can just change the
sigs by hand, so to speak, but I am hoping to get them to change
automatically. I have about 100 political aphorisms in there, a few I
have written but most swiped from elsewhere.

Take your choice.

(Actually, both are true.)

You know, Harry. you may have a point there.

demonstrated time and again that they have the management skills of

He sloshes his drink into his lap
