It's plain gone to Hell, Tony. The entire East Coast has gone on my
proverbial bobsled ride to there on greased rails, whooshing at an
exponential rate to the eternal flames while yelling "Yee Haaaw!" and
"Woo-weee!" and flapping cowboy hats. Yup, it's that bad. Especially
with an election campaign cranking up. Are you surprised? I bet not. 

This is as good a time as any to ask, Tony. Now that we have the weekend
list doldrums upon us. But, what -DO- ya do with a drunken sailor,
earl-lie in the morning? Inquiring minds want to know.
