IIRC, he found a 500 year old Peruvian mummy attractive.

No need. Ken Starr was on the case.

Yeah, I miss Ken. Had we had a Democrat bulldog as partisan as Starr to do
the investigating, Bush would be hauled up on all sorts of capital crimes,
including allegations of incest with his mother, the bodacious Barbara.

If you're referring to Barbara Bush, I think it was Bush Sr. who found her
attractive.

Of course he did. Who wouldn't? But we didn't sent a $40 million special
prosecutor out to DNA dresses, so we'll never know the truth.

Libby only cost $1 million. If Fitzgerald had a $40 million budget he could
have nailed them all. I still want to know what really happened with the
pretzel.

No, I'm not - I'm referring to this

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/ma...9/etperu19.xml

Juanita became famous, toured the world - "just like a rock star", in the
words of a website dedicated to her - and in 1996 even charmed Bill Clinton,
who said at a dinner in Stamford, Connecticut: "If I were a single man, I
might ask that mummy out. That's a good-looking mummy!" Now she lies in a
glass case, on display in the Museo Santuarios Andinos in Arequipa, opposite
the convent.

They should DNA test the shroud.

Knots is already a velocity... If the 'k' in 'kph' stood for knots, then you
would be using a measurement for accelleration, not velocity... It would
mean, "nautical miles per hour per hour"... I suspect you must have meant
just plain 'knots' or 'nm/hr'... Of course, 'nm/hr' would normally mean
'nanometers per hour' which would make it a calm wind that you had been
describing...

So, about twice what Coz charges and you didn't even get to meet Wilma...
Doesn't sound all that enchanting...

Sound like cheap airfare to get you there and then they start making the
*real* money off of you... For some reason, it kind of sounds like the scam
they have with the ink jet printers...

Go ahead and explain why they are called knots in the first place.

Has less than nothing to do with nuatical miles.
