FROM THE
'OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES'
DEPARTMENT

A darling young girl told her dad that she was going to make a Valentine's Day card and send it to Osama bin Laden. She asked for his help in finding a mailing address.

The family happened to be Jewish. The dad was awestruck over his child's thoughtfulness and grace, since bin Laden is a world-famous Islamic terrorist who favors killing all Jews on the planet. A Jewish child sending bin Laden wishes about love would be truly a transcendant act.

"Honey, I am proud of you for thinking of this," said the dad. "If more kids were like you, we could turn around the hearts of all the terrorists in the world and bring peace at last."

"Well," replied the girl, "I was just hoping it would bring him out into the open, and then the U.S. Marines could shoot the ****er."

REFRESHING HONESTY
FROM A . . . POLITICIAN?!?

Here's what Brazilian Finance Minister Rubens Ricupero said during a break in a TV interview, unaware that the satellite feed was still running:

"I have no scruples. What is good, we take advantage of. What is bad, we hide."

Yes, he resigned two days later. With guys like that in public office, we don't even NEED a good journalism corps to root out the baddies. :>)

THIS KID'S SO CUTE,
I THINK HE HUNG THE MOON

A friend's son looked up at the night sky when there was a crescent moon, and called it "a silver smile."
