All the authors at Baen Books, a science fiction and fantasy publisher, were ecstatic when they heard Baen was going to publish his alternative history novel. They didn't care if it was good or bad, they figured his name recognition would send sales through the roof, and the rising tide would lift everyone's advances.

Baen eventually paid a paper recycler so much per pound to haul away all the unsold copies because it was cheaper than paying warehouse storage fees.

The best part of the Newt Gingrich/Callista Gingrich story that I'd heard was that he'd been meeting her in a church before he served divorce papers to his ailing in the hospital wife. I guess adultery if fine if you talk to Jesus after and it's ever so convenient that church and Jesus go together he did not have to go far to seek Jesus.

It would be boost to my spirits if Jon Ossoff could take Newt's old seat this Tuesday.

As I recall the Blowjob Circus, a 20something groupie magically got younger and younger every time the Right went on a harrumphing jag. By the end of 1998, if the harrumphing is to be believed, Bill had taken bawdy advantage of a 3-day zygote.
