Glenn Reynolds weighs in on an illegal, deadly aphrodisiac: "Others may see things differently, but to me there’s a big gap between ‘toad venom’ and ‘feeling sexy.’" As Glenn himself would say: Indeed.
This comes on the heels on Tucker Carlson’s disturbing relevations about his sex life, vis a vis the veepstakes:
“The VP story is a little bit like sex,†observes Tucker Carlson, the
writer and NBC political analyst who falls into the skeptic column.
“When it’s happening, you’re totally focused on it, it’s all you want.
Then, the second it’s over, you can barely remember why it seemed so
important.â€Â
“It happens, there are fireworks for 30 seconds, ‘[AP’s Ron] Fournier’s
got it  it’s JACK KEMP!’â€Â
According to Wikipedia, Tucker is married with four children, so I’m guessing he doesn’t really yell out "JACK KEMP!" in the heat of passion. But who knows. I suppose some women would find it sexier than toad venom, at least. Though, if there’s a bow-tie involved as well, toad venom might be preferable.
Is it emblematic of the Spring condition of this blog that this underwhelming thread has occupied the marquee for so long accompanied by the distasteful association of the less than palatable ’shits and giggles’ with an image of love-making. And by a woman no less.

Yech! There’s a mental image I never needed. I wonder if he wears the bow tie in the sack for shits and giggles.
Ew.

What happened to the thread on Scott McClellan’s new book? I’m interested in the fantasia-like world of Joe Mama’s thoughts on this topic.

This latest unsigned comment is the same guy who thinks “snark requires wit.” Am I right?
