Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

We had a milkman when I was very little. Until about 1985ish, I think.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

We had a milkman. He'd come in a big truck and take away our milk. He'd also bring us butter and cheese.

If we were out of milk in the house, we had to be sure to go to the barn and get some before the milkman came and took it away.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

A veteran NYPD detective accused of using marijuana is offering a novel defense: He says his wife spiked his meatballs with pot in a misguided attempt to force him to retire, the Daily News has learned.

On four occasions she admitted mixing marijuana into her homemade meatballs, substituting the drug for the oregano, sources said.

CSI question:

Lee, I had to think about this one last night, but the kid he hit with his SUV died, so I imagine there will be repercussions.

Dodgy story about Ted Haggard.

The president of the National Association of Evangelicals resigned Thursday after accusations by a male prostitute that the pastor paid him for sex over three years.

I dunno, it sounds too wonderfully ironic to be true. I suspect that this could be a false allegation.

Well, I just read that voice analysis of voicemails left on the prostitute's phone have proven to be Haggards.

eta: OK, a voice expert believes it's Haggard.

This was my very first thought...as I was trolling through the myriad 'scandals' in the paper this morning. Looking at it from the macro view, the entire news cycle seems to be an endless series of I know you are, but what am I? t /peewee

Haggard, 50, initially denied the allegations, telling 9News Wednesday night that "I've never had a gay relationship with anybody, and I'm steady with my wife. I'm faithful to my wife."

But KKTV in Colorado Springs reported that New Life Associate Senior Pastor Ross Parsley told a meeting of church elders Thursday night that Haggard had met with the church's overseers earlier in the day and "had admitted to some indiscretions."

Parsley told the elders that Haggard had said some of the allegations were true, but not all of them.

Yeah, he didn't say which allegations were true. So is the true stuff the gay sex? Or the meth?

Ann, that's a ferret.

Haggard has apparently admitted that at least some of it's true.

So says the Denver Post.
