As we were leaving the Green Party of Suffolk meeting this Saturday, my buddy John Keenan was sporting a cigarette holder that I said reminded me of Hunter S. Thompson
Last night we watched “The Women” which was written by Clare Booth (Luce), who was a Connecticut Republican congresswoman. I have to admit that I confused her with Millicent Fenwick, the New Jersey Republican congresswoman who is considered the model for lacey despite Trudeau’s denials. . Both were Republican congresswomen. Both were ambassadors, both were in the magazine industry, and both served in the Reagan administration.
Lastly today I recieved an email from my friend Amy inviting people to buy tickets for a Jimmy Web concert. Now I always thought that Jimmy Thudpucker was based on Webb, but Wikpedia tells me I am wrong wrong wrong.
Maybe it wasn’t a Doonesbury week after all.
