    You give toddlers a time-out of one minute for every year old they are. So the TSA should have given Vitter a 47-minute time out — with a diaper, of course, in case he had to go wee-wee before his time was up.

    I always felt that way about Lindsay Lohan getting busted for driving drunk twice in two months — and then caught with a bag of cocain in her pants inside the police station — and then getting sentenced to one day in jail and 10 days community service for the whole thing.


    In what universe would any of us get a sentence like that under the same circumstances? In what universe, I ask you?


    Sorry, just wanted to take this opportunity to vent about that. I feel much better now.

    He puts the "Lose" in Looziana. But at the end of the day, he is still a fraking U.S. Senator! Sigh.

    To bad Carol Anne Gotbaum wasn't a senator from LA who enjoyed visiting prostitutes for steamy "diaper" sex, perhaps she would still be alive today rather than having died at a Phoenix airport.

    Does anyone get the impression that all parties involved just wanted to get this unfortunate incident over with and all the details about this man and his dirty diaper butt OUT OF THEIR MINDS.


    Well played, Senator.

    @BookishLookish: No need to be rash. You can't just put a salve on this and make it disappear overnight. After all, the good Senator was wiped out from this mess he made.

    It makes me very happy that everyone associates this Senator with diapers and shame. SchadenFreud, if you will

    It's not like we should expect any better. I mean, the guy's a senator. Which is just about two steps above lying, blood-sucking leech and . . . and . . . hmm. Actually, I can't think of anything. And really, blood-sucking leeches are, at least, useful.


    Why doesn't the government just write "One law for the rich and the rest of you assholes get screwed" into the constitution and be DONE with it?

    @The_Lovely_Miss_Bronx: Yes, the problem is that you cannot vet lower-than Vetter in the animal world. The rabble rousers of the sixties had the same trouble in referring to the PD as "pigs," which brought a rebuke from a British paper for this gratuitous insult to a "sensitive and humane animal." This problem seemed to have been conceded by an old acquaintence who would proclaim on inspection of anything less than savory, "Man, that'd gag a maggot!"

    @Smitros: The last time I heard the expression was under a 1963 Plymouth Sport Fury, my buddy Mick was pulling the tranny preperatory to yanking the engine, and he took off the speedometer cable right enough, then while he was twisting to loosen the box ...


    In Bonham, TX, in Fannin County, the Blackland Prairie region, northeast. I thought whatever was said there stayed there, but the old sing-song


    What's yer name?

    Puddin' Tane,

    As me again and I'll tell ye the same!


    I heard from a lady along the central coast of California, and have yet to understand how a local playground ditty jumped a desert and two mountain ranges to get there thirty years later.


    We neglected to drain the transmission fluid, you see, which is why Mick was doused with the nasty stuff that hadn't been changed in a while...
