Gone fishing
Governor Don “Laughing Boy” Carcieri, in falling all over His Incompetency, President George W. Bush, during his visit to the Biggest Little last week, was quoted in the BeloJo’s “Political Scene” column as inviting the decider to go fishing with him: “I tried to convince him to come back with his fishing pole.”
Your superior correspondents would love to see these two fishing together, but rather than doing it in the Ocean State, let us suggest that they check out Florida. To expedite this, your superior correspondents are sending the governor nautical directions to the Bermuda Triangle.
