Dog: What's up pussycat? Cat: Oh, I'm just writing a tender memoir of my long-ago affair with JFK... it's filled with pathos and sad, wistful longing. Dog: You had an affair with JFK!? Cat: Why not? We were in love - he said so. Dog: He told that twenty times a day to all the others. And him with a bad back and all... Cat: OTHERS!!? Dog: Gee, I'm sorry, pussycat. I didn't mean to... y'know. Well, I thought you would have heard... Cat: OH, how could he? He told me I was special! Punk: What a nice respite from endless Mitts and Santorums.

Yes it is a nice respite. THANKS

No respite from those Newts and Cains, however. OTOH, JFK could no doubt have given Newt & Bill and any number of others some good pointers on how to score with class. I mean, Marilyn Monroe! She’s no intern! But one does have to wonder about the provenance of his bad back…

Uh-huh… A good story… But classy!

Yes, it was a time when people looked to what a person/politician did for the people and the country and, more or less, allowed them to have a private personal life…well as compared to today…and when something did get out most would have rather laughed about it rather than try to make it a National issue. But I am sure that 50 yrs from now someone will look back and lament even about these times…Aaah, “the more things change the more they are the same”. French Proverb.

To find out what’s true in history, we’d probably need to consult the necromancers of Glubbdubdrib.
Or would there be a way through technology, say a far future version of Google – GooglePlex! – to surf the TimeWeb? Yes, no doubt it would be used mainly to spy on the romantic lives of famous historical figures.
Junk food for thought.

I find it interesting that this “intern” waited all this time to “share her story” about a dead man. Interesting that anyone who could substantiate her “story” is also dead. What price 15 minutes of fame.

Complaining about an election in 1960? I’m sure none of you guys told anyone who complained about Florida’s 2000 vote to, “get over it!”

One of these days I suppose I should tell my story, for the sake of posterity.One day JFK and I -Well, I don’t want to give it away just yet -and -I don’t want to give it away.
