    The Amish version of Politico is Ezekiel, a pompous 40-year-old who makes assumptions and pronouncements that he's now intellectually capable of making.

    The New Yorker is supposedly untouchable by McKinsey, ex-employee comp subscriptions notwithstanding.

    Ham, I don't think it's "competing leakers" - I think McKinsey is offering several possible cures: one where CN closes mags & cuts expenses by one amount, and one where they DON'T close mags, & must cut expenses by an even larger amount to make up for it.

    More so than weed growers and pornographers to the Amish, McKinsey has the recession-proof business: telling businesses what they want to hear.

    @TheBusinessGuy: more like "telling businesses what they already know and providing the client with mommy's skirts to hide behind"

    Amish overwork their animal, he knew. Fanatics. Hump their women...standing up, out in the fields, wearing clothes, just hoist black skirts and there it was, nothing underneath. No underpants...

    The bonnet *is* the vagina, HamNo. Or a highly fetishized version of it.

    I once wrote a porn story wherein an Amish guy comes to Philadelphia and fucks a woman with a plug-in vibrator and says, "Ah, electricity! This is so much more relaxing!"

    One of my favorite Letterman Top10s, ever:

    December 1, 1989
    Top 10 Amish Pick-up Lines

    10. Are thee at barn-raisings often?

    9. If our religion didn't forbid the use of telephones, I would ask thee for thy number.

    8. Can I buy thee a buttermilk colada?

    7. You've really got the build for that plain bonnet and shapeless black dress.

    6. Say, my favorite movie is "Witness" too!

    5. Are thee a model?

    4. There are so many phonies at these quilting bees. Let's go someplace quiet.

    3. Thy buggy has a bitchin' lacquer job.

    2. I got Sinatra tickets.

    1. Are thee up for some plowing?

    My mother is always reading Christian romance novels. I think it's just a symptom of how much she hates her life.
