I’m workin’ as hard as I can to git a budget passed. I’m callin’ the Speaker everyday to talk about solvin’ our problems. So, if the States owes you money, don’t blame me, talk to her. She’s the one who’s writin’ the checks as fast as she can.
“Nah, it LOOKS like a huntin’ vest, but it’s really a fishin’ vest, like when ya reel in five lunkers. Get it? Lunkers? Big fish? Harty har har har har!”
“When she yanked the rug out from under their paychecks? Genius! Er, at least that’s what Goldberg told me. Me? I’m only workin’ for a buck a year, so it was no big loss for me.”
