Watching Bob Menendez tonight on The Daily Show, I'm reminded of this bit of Biblical Wisdom:
It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it is for a Senator to speak in public and not sound like a douche.
Maybe I'm misremembering that, but it's still frickin' true.


I think you mean it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, not harder.

It says easier! And it's ALWAYS said easier!
Thanks.

And it is 'cable', not 'camel'; the latter being a mistranslation of the Aramaic into Greek...

Are you sure it was the eye of the needle and not the maw?
Of course, I'm all for cabling maws...

At the end of the day, I'm gonna spank Menendez and send him to bed without his supper if he ever says "at the end of the day" again. I mean, that's just really pushing the pushing the envelope envelope.

It must be this bell-weather I keep reading about that's making Larkspur cranky.
