At least they weren't Readers' Digest Condensed Books.

I'm surprised that Tweety didn't admire his erudition as well as his codpiece in that weird love-tribute last night.

2. Certainly not any books I give a rats ass about.
Anyway.. those look like the "hide-a-key" editions.

5. Well, yes I do but none of my fireplace selections would be on
Chucklenuts' reading list. Up there I have Kitty Kelly's book on the Bush Family, Bill and Hillary Clintons' books, a Richard Clarke, Jimmy Carter's latest, Edward Kennedy's, McCullough's John Adams, A Eric Alterman, Ferling's "Setting the World on Fire" and even Maureen Dowd's Bush World to name a few - getting a theme here? The books I deliberately selected to put on my mantle tells family, friends and visitors in no uncertain terms my opinion on the Bush Crime Family. And if they want to discuss it, fine. My sister-in-law, who thinks Chucklenuts is a "fine Christian man full of honor and dignity" learned not to try to debate this administration's misdeeds with someone who reads.

Nice woman but totally, completely, insanely clueless. Her only frame of reference was to cite was Faux Snooze, need I say more? Like shooting fish in a barrel. I offered to lend her some books but she turned me down. Go figure.

9. I know I don't,
but you think bush would be concerned that the heat from the fireplace would adversely affect the book's alcoholic contents. Now THAT would be an explosion I'd love to hear about on Certainly Not News. :-)
