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

Huh. Regarding ex-presidents insulting other presidents:

WILLIAM TAFT (1909-1913) was charged with carrying Roosevelt’s "big stick" as War Secretary. Roosevelt hand-picked him as his successor, declaring there could not "be found in the whole country a man so well fitted to be president." It wasn't long, however, before he was calling Taft a "second-rate flubdub...a fathead and a puzzlewit."

I think I shall endeavor to reintroduce the pejorative "puzzlewit" back into popular usage....

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I HAVE MY BOY LOLLIPOP STUCK IN MY HEAD. If memory serves, that's Hec's fault.

At least you now associate it with playful sexy animation.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I love "second-rate flubdub."

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

I want to invent a new musical genre called flubdub.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I want to know what would qualify someone as a first-rate flubdub.

Perhaps the extent of their puzzlewittiness would be a factor.

puzzlewittiness

I kick butt at jigsaw puzzles, does that count?

Interesting: m-w.com doesn't even have puzzlewit. Flubdub is defined as "bunkum, balderdash." What an awesome collection of words!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Next weekend, Ken Ham's Answers in Genesis Creation Museum is scheduled to open near Cincinnati....

Please don't blame me for such a monument to flubdub.
