Apropos of nothing political….
Being the nice guy I am, I will not post the name or phone number of the no-doubt well meaning folks who just sent me the email solicitation excerpted below:

Telephone consolation?
What will they do, say “There, there, we\’re sorry you have an oil tank”?
I hope not. Because if they call me, I would have to console (or is it consult) them with the fact that we converted to gas.
This reminds me of the story my brother in law told, many years ago, about one of his employees who had a new daughter and decided to give her what sounded like a very mellifluous French name: Bidet. My brother in law said “I didn\’t have the heart to tell her”. Which, I suppose was small consultat…er, consolation to the young lady in question who, I am guessing, sent that name down the toilet long ago…and was flushed with success when she did.
Ok, back to politics, where, if I could, I would be flushing a lot of names from both sides of the aisle.
