An excerpt...
"This being Christmas, now seems an appropriate time to offer our usual best guess as to the gifts some of our local and state personalities probably received this morning.
# Outgoing Pittsburgh Mayor Tom Murphy: A copy of "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Resume Writing."
# Pittsburgh Mayor-elect Bob O'Connor: A bottle of Tylenol for all the headaches he is about to inherit. Extra-strength. Extra-size.
# Sen. Santorum: A disguise kit to keep President George Bush from recognizing and approaching him.
# State Treasurer and U.S. Senate candidate Bob Casey Jr: Starbucks gift certificates good for triple espressos before each of his public speaking engagements to keep him from nodding off like his audiences.
# Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. Catherine Baker Knoll: The collected works of the late actor Edward G. Robinson, whom she has publicly confused with Gov. Edward G. Rendell, on DVD.
# Rendell: Same as always, a cheesesteak, police radar detector and Philadelphia Eagles T-shirt.
# State House Speaker John Perzel, who defended the exorbitant raises state lawmakers voted themselves in July -- and later repealed -- by incorrectly insisting some immigrant Pennsylvania dairy-farm workers make $50,000 annually: A "Got Milk?" T-shirt.
# Disgraced Republican state Rep. Jeff Habay of Shaler, convicted of having his staff perform campaign work during office hours: A new office clock.
Merry Christmas, everyone." |
