Question of the day

Phil King's telecom bill went up in smoke this week. Some folks claim that Phil is bought and paid fer by the SBC lobby. This got us to thinking....

If you had paid a whore for a service and the whore couldn't really meet expectations, would you leave a little something extra on the nightstand? Would you refer the whore to friends? Would you visit the whore again?

Someone get the SBC lobbyists to answer that one for us.

Oh, Mary Denny's office must be so glad we are onto Phil King this week and leaving her alone. Don't worry Mary...we'll be back!
