I think this is pretty funny.

Wow, even I needed an assist for that one! (And I'm innately gifted at spotting startling coincidences.) roflmbo.gif

That's actually brilliant. It's difficult these days to get anyone to cooperate, maybe a little nudge like this would be a great idea from Obama too!

What I am really hoping from Arnold is that before he leaves office, as Governor, Arnold gives a full pardon (as he is allowed to) to Roman Polanski

insider buzz in Hollywood circles say it is a done deal after the hoopla and RP returns

and it won't be a day too soon

Persecution of Jews who lost their parents in Auschwitz need to stop, and this will be a major reason Arnold will do this, though this is being denied all over.

Thanks, BI. I tried to copy it, but it wouldn't copy.

Found out that what the Assemblyman said to him was, among other things, "Kiss my gay ass!" My initial knee jerk, liberal guilt response was, "well, shame on Arnold, then, for picking on a poor gay assemblyman who was asserting his gay rights!" Then I realized that I was exhibiting reverse snobbery, of hypocrisy, or something, and that I still thought his response was funny!

Treat the letter as an image to copy. Funny, silly story, thanks for posting it. I laughed.

Ridiculous follow-up here (too much information, IMO).

Schwarzenegger: F-Bomb In Veto Letter Was "Wild Coincidence"

It's just one of those wild coincidences, like Thomas Jefferson and John Adams dying the same day, exactly 50 years after they signed the Declaration of Independence. At least, so says Governor Schwarzenegger of the profane letter he sent to lawmakers.

To recap: on Tuesday a hidden message was detected in a note accompanying a veto Governor Schwarzenegger sent to California Assemblyman Tom Ammiano. When read like an acrostic poem, the first seven letters in seven consecutive lines spelled out "F**K YOU." The message was not without precedent - earlier Ammiano had told the governor to "kiss my gay *ss."

Speaking to reporters on Friday, Schwarzenegger insisted "That was a total coincidence. It was one of those wild coincidences."

How likely is that? According to Stephen Devlin, the chair of the math department at the University of San Francisco, not very. The odds are one in 10 million he said, and added, "Not surprisingly, it's virtually impossible for this to happen."
