Does anyone remember an episode of Conan O’Brien or one of those other late-night talk shows—they kind of blend together at that hour for me—where they did a skit based on Celebrity Jeopardy with a George W. Bush impersonator? The answer was “Pluto” and our esteemed Commander in Chief’s response was, “What is Mexican for pollute. As in ‘Give a hoot-o, don’t pluto.’”

Still cracks me up every single time.

    Just got back into town from a family funeral and settled down to try and catch up on my internet addiction. Finding the website listing for the owl crossstitch was….

    Well. Let me put it like this. My grandmother - who’s funeral it was - collected for years owls. I was tasked with finding appropriate gifts for family members at Christmas in memory.

    Thanks for the happy occurance. Sometimes life just melds at the right moments.

    It was on Jay Leno. He was the best “Bush” I have ever seen. How do you lower the cost of oil per barrel? “Make smaller barrels”
