    Jessie Ventura and Al Franken.

    These days, it doesn't seem all that insane.

    Yeh, but you made me remember the travesty that Minnesota made of our travesty of a political system.

    It's travesty².

    Yessir.

    And Al Franken. Recall what a jerk he was when he first entered Congress?

    Of course, some would point out Reagan's roots...and Schwarzeneggar. But they seemed less the joke.

    I remember Franken as a half-baked comedian on SNL. :D

    You're close. Jesse Ventura was a WWF wrestler and won the governorship of Minnesota. When he was a wrestler he wore a long feather boa. As governor he was never seen with it. It shows that people can change

    One person dies every six seconds from a tobacco related disease.
    Yes and that guy deserves our sympathy.

    I was going to make a similar point. Beth is smarter than us and that's her fault, not ours.

    I have loads of stuff to fix around my house. Wanna go out with me? ( If we're dating I figure I won't have to pay you. )

    That's not universal. Tell me I'm handsome, intelligent and charming ( all true ) and I'll do whatever you want.
