    Hopefully instead of "pork" there's plenty of swirlies and wedgies.

        Does that have to be a old fashioned corded phone, or will a cell phone work?

        1. Episiarch   16 years ago

          Has to be an old AT&T rotary phone, though an 80's "cell phone" brick would be permissible.

          1. Drax the Destroyer   16 years ago

            It's all about the girth.

    Hopes for a bipartisan compromise on the "Especially Me" amendment focused on Republican Lindsey Graham and Democrat Blanche Lincoln, but negotiations broke down when Charles Schumer hissed "bitch" at somebody.

    "Let the record show that we are also big pussies who wet our beds at night."

    After passing all of the War on Drugs Liberty provisions, the authorization to use force in Iraq, the Patriot Act, TARP and the stimulus package, I had already concluded that.

    I was hoping that it was from "Egypt's Most Reliable News Source" (h/t).

    1. Almanian   16 years ago

      That's funny

  5. John-David   16 years ago

    I'm glad, Cavanaugh, that you can't ban me from this site any more. That was the lamest entry I've ever seen on Hit & Run. Even worse than the stupid thing you once said that made me respond in a way that got be banned.

      *barf*

    2. Stew Pedasso   16 years ago

      Yeah, what he said......
