I'm Funny
Sorta
Ok, so I'm in this meeting today with a bunch of republican lobbyists giving them my take of DC's new smoking ban and how it will affect their businesses. Some one asks me if they can contort the langauge and claim that thier business is a residence (which it sort of is) and therefor be exempt.
I jokingly replied, "It's kind of Clintonian, you know, it depends on what your definition of 'residence' is"
Grumbles, my boss says, "Clinton isn't a good reference for this group."
I reply, slyly, "Ok, we will put it in strong republican terms...it depends on what your definition of 'torture' is."
Cricket noises...
(I still think it was funny)...
