You want me to read that??

What's wrong with this picture? Referring to the fiscal 2003 budget, it's a "1,100-page spending packagewhich most members of Congress have not seen..." I grant you that Congresspeople are busy, and trying to grasp the details buried in an eleven-hundred page document might take weeks, but it ain't no way to run a country.

Apparently the tax code is too big to read, too: Enron (remember Enron?) managed to (quite legally, apparently) avoid paying taxes four of its last five years in business, and the IRS is befuddled.

Don't I recall Shelley blogging about kissing? Ok, that's the hard science version; here's the breezier buzz on osculation. If you have a .wav or mp3 file of As Time Goes By, boot it up while reading.

I'm not sure whether I'm a righty or a lefty. I think I might, um, swing both ways in this area. Is that wrong?

Okay, this is really my name. ;-)

Ambi-osculatory? Hmmm.

Well, I *am* ambidextrous in point of fact. It *could* happen. Heh.
