Oddly, I still have the famed "fuzzy sweater" of lore.

That should go in the Lawtalkers Museum. I think I still have several dozen Shape Shafters that I could contribute.

I don't really follow the politics of my native state closely (too predictable), but this woman is often good for a laugh. She previously made national news when she claimed teenaged lesbians were taking over schools in Southeast Oklahoma. Now she has uncovered the Homosexual Agenda:

As conspiracy theories abound in Oklahoma, John Birch Society, others rally
Wednesday, February 04, 2009
By Ben Fenwick

The crowd in the banquet hall at the Character Conference Center, housed in an old Holiday Inn in downtown Oklahoma City, sat packed, rapt with attention as Oklahoma state Rep. Sally Kern, R-Oklahoma City, told them she’d found it: the gay agenda.

Kern said the agenda is in a book called “After the Ball,” by Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen, a book named after a musical adaptation of Oscar Wilde’s “Lady Windermere’s Fan.” She recounted the bullet points of a secret public relations campaign to have gays accepted by the general public — step by step — with the final goal being not just acceptance of gays by heterosexuals, but eventual triumph of homosexuality as a superior lifestyle.

Among the items in the agenda, Kern said, was getting the public to view homosexuality as a matter of taste, like a preference for strawberry or vanilla ice cream. She quoted the text: “The masses should not be shocked and repelled by premature exposure to homosexual behavior itself.”

“You know,” Kern said. “I’ve done a lot of reading on this. I wish I could describe to you their behavior. I will not because I would be redder than this suit. It’s their behavior that we oppose.

“This theme of equality and freedom is the approach that the homosexuals are using today — totally perverting the true intention of what our Constitution meant. … The homosexuals get it — it’s a struggle between our religious freedoms and their right to do what they want to do.”

Around the banquet hall, Kern’s speech met with applause and calls of “Amen!” from a crowd stoked in a crucible of conspiracy and intrigue. For the whole day, the “Clouds Over America” conference, run and organized by the John Birch Society, held lecture after lecture Jan. 23 and 24 dedicated to explaining their various conspiracy-laden tenets. Here’s one — that a godless secret society, the Illuminati, has been battling against the founding of the United States of America and decent citizens to live in peaceful, worshipful freedom.

The FB will be happy to write you a letter of recommendation.

Otherwise, how about collecting a few writing samples and submitting them with the application?

That would bore them to tears, as the only things I've written (other than posts on this board) are prospectuses and contracts.

Hmmm. Maybe I'll just send a link to the FB.

I thought your former employer auctioned those off for a quick balance sheet uptick?

I often thank you for actually knowing where to properly put the comma.

For the GA Museum, I still have my autographed copy of "The Moral Compass of the American Lawyer" with co-author Carol Langford's lipstick imprint (full lips I might add) and immorally suggestive note to Penske in the inner cover, which I could contribute.

I have several friends whose continued employment depends mightily on the success of this movie. Reviews like that can't hurt.
