Deadlines, deadlines. While I muddle through the day, sit back, relax, and enjoy this entry from Dec. 5. Hey, it's still relevant!
Samuel Alito
Pros: While President Bush's nominee for the Supreme Court was a student at Princeton, he helped lead a conference on privacy and said: "No private sexual act between consenting adults should be forbidden."
Cons: If appointed to the Supreme Court, thought to be the most far-right-wing Justice ever. Likely to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Mojito
Pros: Likely to spur the initiation of private sexual acts between consenting adults. Also, it's very refreshing.
Cons: Too many, and you might actually need the protection of Roe v. Wade.
Winner: Mojito--did I mention it's very refreshing?
Recipe for a mojito:
3 parts light-dry rum
12 yerba buena or mint leaves
1/2 lime
2 dashes bitters
simple syrup (can be made at home with equal parts sugar and water, boiled)
crushed ice
The mint leaves should be crushed with a mortar and pestle. Mix everything together and serve.

You don't have a recipe for an Alito? I'm disappointed.
The Mojito is much better styled and far more photogenic. Isn't that what we Americans want in our political leadership?
I would find Alito more appealing if he were crushed with a mortar and pestle with yerba buena leaves.
I've been meaning to try a mojito. I like margaritas and cosmopolitans, although the wife claims these are sissy drinks.
I've heard that to make an Alito, you have to wring the tears from a dozen behooded men by applying electrodes to their testicles -- no, wait. My bad. That's an Alberto.
Doug--
Your wife probably hasn't had margaritas the way my wife makes them, then. 4 parts tequila, 1 part cointreau, 1 part lime, on the rocks. Definitely not for sissies!
