Wow.  That is indeed a creepy line of work.  This guy must be a real winner.

Bret, I would not be surprised if you and I have already been investigated by the new spook -I mean, staffer.

There's something about being represented out of the TC suburbs that's like not being represented at all.

Claire, you assume that you're important enough to investigate.  Don't flatter yourself.

The Good Servant Cravaack is from Ohio, married a Minnesota girl, spent a little time in the Armed Forces (enough to warrant his Sleep Apnea {sp?} disability for life) and likes fo fly planes.

I met Artis once. He is kind of a weird guy, actually. Not weird weird, but like a high being weird. The guy sees life in a completely different perspective.

Keep predicting Claire. You are the same one that predicted that Jimmy woud wipe Chip. Heh heh, keep dreamin!

" I was having lunch with two new friends who live in the Twin Cities, and our new Congressman's name came up. One of my companions said, "You do realize, you people just elected a congressman who lives in the Twin Cities, don't you?" I responded, "I didn't vote for the man, don't blame me." "

And then were your friends like, "Oh no you di'int!  You go girl!"

Ironic that Jimmy is relegated to wiping the Chinese now that he has no one to wipe him. Hmmm, what's next? I've got a good guess. Maybe a return favor from Red Star in the form of a high paying B.O.D. position on the new Cirrus? I smell a ponzi scheme of epic proportions. Damn, am I glad Jimmy isn't in our woodshed anymore. Having Chip clean up won't be a guarantee of getting rid of all the roaches, but it's a start! The light switch has been turned on...

Word, Zra!

We need to make the trains run on time. There are enemies without and within. We must stop the Socialist onslaught! Mmfft, bargle, #%@*&#*@&!
