Did you hear Al Gore got an Emmy or an Oscar for the best lies this Century? This is perhaps part of the coverup surrounding those lies of his.

Corbin,
would those CFL's be the same as the lamps they've been promoting over here for some years now? They call them saving-lamps. We even got one free for two years on a row! Ugly things, wouldn't want to put them in one of my fittings!

Good idea!  Mercury?  Are they insane?  Our government up here is thinking of doing the same thing.  Nuts, nuts, nuts.  Eat peanut butter cookies.

Outrageous! And speaking of outrageous, the next time I see (and hear) Gov. Schriverbanger compare himself to the late, great, President Ronald Wilson Reagan, I'm going to find a big old hammer (or what ever it was), and do what that woman did in the classic "1984"-inspired, computer commercial - to my television screen!
