Actually it has been recommended by writing teachers as an example of excellent writing technique - and the antitheses of normal legal writing. The reason I have been reading it is that my brother, who is a New Yorker, gave us a gift subscription a few years ago.

I read that for the first book Sarah wanted to write it herself and the publisher refused so she had to acquiesce to get the cash.

Can you find that link? It would be a hoot, if it's true.

SP calls on an urgent matter. Someone has told her that Rachel Maddow is a lesbo. "Is this true, Lynn?"

"I'm afraid so," I say.

I hear her gulp her energy drink. "Wait a second," she says. "Do her bosses know?"

----------------------------------

Just for giggles, we YouTube her sportscaster clips. That hair!

"And to think," SP says, "I once dreamed of blowing Keith Olbermann."

--------------------------------

He's screaming and gesturing with his beer when Piper pads in from the TV room, rubbing her eyes.

"Glenn Beck's crying again," she says. "Why is he always crying, Mommy?"

SP gathers her into a hug. "He's crying because it hurts to love your country so much."

-------------------------------------

The women is an idiot.

Could have been worse, she could have had Ann Coulter write the book.

No. I'm just asking if you still have the article to share.
Geez, Noone, take it easy.
