My Family Needs Me (Limerick and Video)

Monday, November 26th, 2007

I’m always amused when politicians and other public figures get into legal hot water and develop a sudden urge to spend more time with their family. 

They generally issue some sort of lame press release that nobody believes and then, if we’re lucky, they spend a whole lot of time in prison.  If we’re not so lucky, we get to watch them spout off on Fox News.

But getting back to their woefully inadequate press releases,  I thought as a public service I’d write a generic resignation limerick:

My Family Needs Me
By Madeleine Begun Kane

My family needs me — can’t stay.
I’m dismayed that I must go away.
But I want to spend time
With my wife, who’s sublime.
It’s not my indictment, okay?

Hillary Clinton Joke (30 Second MP4 Video)

Monday, November 19th, 2007

I’ve been playing around with creating short video clips and I’ve finally succeeded.  So if you’d like to see me tell a joke I wrote about Hillary Clinton and the issue of drivers licenses for illegal aliens, here it is. 

Warning: It took me so long to figure out the video technology, that my Clinton joke is a bit stale. I’ll try to be more timely the next time I do this sort of thing.
