One of friends does something I haven't tried:
borrow someone's baby (like your sister's) and
go for a walk in the park or on the beach.
My friend said that babies attract women like
magnets.

Tyger, that's what I said to you the other day. Haven't heard a peep
from you since.  You talking to me ?  Like I said, it's only politics.
It's OK if we disagree on it. Right?

But as long as we're on the subject :-) , I hope CLinton does a good job.
I think there's a better than average chance he will.  If he doesn't,
I'll be voting for some one else next time (if I'm still here).  At least
I agree with most of Clinton's issue positions.  Now, lets see how well
(or not) he implements them.  That's at least as important as where he
stands on the issue itself.  He knows he can't make any drastic budget
deficit moves without sending the economy into (prob) worse shape than
it's been.  Regardless, of Rpub. or Dem., or who's to blame, it's still
makes me ill that 1/3rd (I believe) of all our taxes just goes to
paying hte *interest* on the deficit.  Just think if we had all that money
to *do( something with!!

There is "boy", and then there is "*B*oy", the later having an emphasise
on the "B".  The same is available with "girls".  A lot depends on the
tone and the intent of the speaker.  

 IF the speaker desires to be an A**hole, then I take offense; but if it
is just conversation, then I don't get irritated by it.

That's my Opinion.

Perhaps Clinton can do something about the drug problem,  he can buy them all

   McCarthy was condemned by the Senate, not censured.  

That's essentially a quibble on a technical point of the Senate rules;
he was certainly censured, even if he wasn't "censured" in the rules
sense.

   The vote was 67 to 22.
   Seven Senators did not vote (only 48 states in 1954).

   Actually it has been talked about.  

Not much, if a political junky like me hasn't run into it.

   JFK was one of the seven.

Was he absent or did he abstain?  If it was an abstention, isn't that
almost the same?

That's vastly more important.  It doesn't matter where Clinton stands
if the decisions are made by the left-wing extremists in Congress.

Yes.  One of George Bush's two good ideas (I forget the other one) was
to let YOU decide to spend a little bit of your tax money now to
reduce the principal on the national debt.  The press has pilloried
him for suggesting such a trivially simple idea.  If it's good, it has
to be complicated.  Well hey, unless somebody passes a law, that debt
burden will never be reduced.  The pigs feeding at the trough aren't
willing to cut the debt of their own free will, merely because it
would be good for the country.

Actually, this isn't true.  If you are totally miserable all the time
and have fatally low self-esteem, you will still run into the occasional
masochistic soul who will love you devotedly.  And you will hate him
for it.  After all, how could he love someone so totally worthless
as yourself?  What's wrong with him, anyway?
   It's a recipe for massive pain, but not an uncommon one.  And definately
definately worth avoiding!

It's possible to have the initial super-intense feelings, and still
accept the other person as imperfect.  Wonderful, but imperfect.
