LOL. Thanks for sharing that bit of "news."

Hey, d'you know about the GE "secret handshake"? David Letterman does. One of the first things he learned when the merger was announced.

BTW, is this you? Sure sounds like the writer had you in mind.

"When one watches some tired hack on the platform mechanically repeating the familiar phrases -- bestial, atrocities, iron heel, bloodstained tyranny, free peoples of the world, stand shoulder to shoulder -- one often has a curious feeling that one is not watching a live human being but some kind of dummy: a feeling which suddenly becomes stronger at moments when the light catches the speaker's spectacles and turns them into blank discs which seem to have no eyes behind them."

PS: As for my "peccary-like attitude", gregarious might be an overstatement, but I do like to get out and socialize with friends on occasion. You might want to try it. Spending all your time obsessing over the latest conspiracy theories really isn't healthy.
