Norman and his blonde wife live in upstate New York. One winter morning while listening to the radio, they hear the announcer say, "We are going to have 3 to 4 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the even numbered side of the street, so the snowplow can get through." Norman's wife goes out and moves her car. A week later while they are eating breakfast, the radio announcer says, "We are expecting 4 to 5 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the odd numbered side of the street, so the snowplow can get through." Norman's wife goes out and moves her car again. The next week they are having breakfast again, when the radio announcer says "We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of snow today. You must park..", then the electric power goes out. Norman's wife says, "Honey, I don't know what to do." Norman says, "Why don't you just leave it in the garage this time?"

Pop quiz: Who is the front- runner for the 2004 Democratic Party nomination for president?A. Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts, who was anointed early on by pundits, and leads in the New Hampshire polls and in total money raised. B. Former Gov. Howard Dean of Vermont, who draws enthusiastic crowds of disgruntled liberals everywhere he goes, is burning up the Internet, and surprised everyone by coming in first in money raised during the April to June quarter. C. Sen. Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut, who was the vice-presidential candidate in 2000 and leads in nationwide polls - although not in such states as New Hampshire and Iowa - and whose fundraising continues to lag. D. I didn't know there was a Democratic nomination race; isn't the election next year? If you selected "D," you're in good company - relatively few Americans are paying attention to the Democratic race at this point. But for the candidates and the party activists supporting them, the race has reached the competitive level of the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox. csmonitor.com
