PHOTO: JEB! visits Switzerland to collaborate with pharmaceutical industry
Is that a crown of Holy light around his head, or is Switzerland re-enacting a dramatic scene from the Phantom of the Opera? And on whose behalf is Jeb! collaborating with drug firms? The people of Florida? The people of Carlyle?


Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, center, signs the guestbook of the city of Basel, as Basel's President Ralph Lewin, left, and a guard, right, look on at the town hall in Basel, Switzerland, Thursday, Nov. 17, 2005. Bush is on a two day visit to conduct conversations with Basel's pharmaceutical industry about closer collaborations. (AP Photo/KEYSTONE/Markus Stuecklin)

19. Sorry, already taken ...
... about to celebrate an anniversary with Husband No. 3!

But thanks for the proposal, and I'm glad I made you LAUGH! If we couldn't get a good laugh out of the current state of affairs in our country, we'd have to ... well, I guess you know the rest!

Thanks again!
