Were you making any of it up or just saying it in a humorous way? Will NPR be talking about counterfeiters tomorrow, too?Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16637903015592683300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-55678354572485921042008-12-16T15:27:00.000-06:002008-12-16T15:27:00.000-06:00Is than an audition to become a staff writer for T...Is than an audition to become a staff writer for The Onion?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-7477611093596858332008-12-16T14:31:00.000-06:002008-12-16T14:31:00.000-06:00Ha ha ha.

Remember when the anti-tobacco lawsuits started in the 90's, and Jay Leno joked about people suing McDonald's for making them fat? <BR/><BR/>It's almost like the Powers That Be are getting their ideas from humorists, now. I might end up regretting my recent crack about gay people boycotting "Twilight" when Stephenie Meyer ends up begging for change on the sidewalk.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-35983401445117734152008-12-16T10:30:00.000-06:002008-12-16T10:30:00.000-06:00Zimbabwe here we come.

If we don't have the money, we shouldn't be spending it. But, under American politics, if we don't have the money...hey, we'll just print more. This makes a lot of sense.<BR/><BR/>Catholic DefenderAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
