18. Reminds me of a great Molly Ivins story. You gotta' love her wit and grit.
Edited on Mon Nov-06-06 05:25 PM by Cyrano
In her book "Molly Ivins Can't Say That, Can She?" She tells of the Texas legislature's passing a bill against sodomy. Her reaction, written for a publication that didn't limit their writer's comments, was:

"As soon as the bill was passed, the house speaker shook hands with the majority leader, thus breaking the law they had just passed that a prick can't touch an asshole."

You've just gotta' love Molly.

(Edited for spelling.)
