I also have stopped my donations to the United Way, which they sponsor at my job. The brochures alone are enough to make you sick

GOOD. I also do not give to the United Way. Also, if most people knew all the â??charitiesâ?� that the United Way supported they may not be so quick to hand over their cash.

I donâ??t need my compassion and generosity to be managed thank you.

I didn't know "immigrants" was no longer PC. Heck, nothing's PC any more. Yep, I do know what a burden the immigrants have put on our health care system. That's a dire problem, and I know that when I begin clinical rotations in another two years--and then when I do internship and residency--those are the patients I'll treat at Parkland. I feel sorry for them and I know why they want to come here, but we can't shoulder that burden.

Good Lord, the only thing scarier than the way Janet Reno dresses is that shot of her kissing Martin Sheen. That really does sort of give me the gross-out shivers, even though I like Martin Sheen.

I've told this story here someplace on a now long-buried thread. My husband and I ran into Janet Reno in Key West about four years ago when we were returning a rent car at the airport before returning to Miami and then Dallas. She was standing outside the rental car agency waiting for someone to pick her up. We introduced ourselves and shook her hand on our way out just because it seemed the thing to do. You don't meet former attorneys general just every day. She appeared as tall as my husband, who's 6' 4," and was equally masculine. She was wearing something that looked something like what you'd see on a lumberjack--a plaid shirt and casual jeans.

My husband found it highly entertaining, and continues to tell this story at every opportunity, that as we were walking out of the car rental place, she checked me out thoroughly. "She looked right through me, baby" he always says, "but focused in on your ass as long as it was in sight." That year at Christmastime, he gave me this gag gift, a very realistic looking $3 dollar bill with her engraved-style photograph in the center. He'd signed the rainbow-colored envelope that held the bill with a big set of pink lip prints and the words "With love from your biggest admirer. If you ever want to switch teams, come on back to the Florida Keys, baby." He's got that thing stuck on his file cabinet in his office here at home, and sometimes I'll hear him getting tickled and doing one of those cat-call whistles when he's in there opening file drawers, and I always know he's reminiscing about the Janet Reno encounter.

He finds all this a lot funnier than I do. It makes me a little queasy.

Janet Reno...ah yes, the dike who viciously torched that religious cult in Waco. Lovely person indeed.

[likemclever]

I like immigrants it's the illeagal ones I have the problem with.

[graymatter]

Yeah, Janet would make me a little quesy... even if she went that way.

With out all the details I met JR many years ago, I always had the impression that I had better be able to drink her under the table because I knew I couldn't whip her in a bare knuckle fight.

Roflâ?¦I had to read that twice before I realized you werenâ??t talking about Larry Hagmanâ?¦lol..

Ha ha.. hey Ozarks thatâ??s what you should have said when you met her, â??You know, I really loved you in Dallas.â?� I wonder what she would have done. :stoned: :stoned: :stoned:

How's that for changing the subject

I never said much to her. I always viewed her as a "3rd stringer" only there because the two before her couldn't get confirmed. She got the job because she wore a dress, she was a "political statement" and the country suffered because of it.


To be fair she didn't have 2 heads or horns, she wasn't evil, I never "hated her" (that seems to be very fashionable in politics today)

She was a nice enough person, however there were lists & lists & lists of people who were much more qualified to AG. IMO.

BTW, Larry Hagman is much better looking
