| Sammy's little foibles... |
| 2002-06-30 |
Andrea Harris notes that Sammy drinks Mateus, a cheap pale pink Further down the article it is revealed that Saddam is not only a writer of bad prose (sample: "The King: âDo the people need strict measures?â 'Zabibah: âYes, your majesty. The people need strict measures so that they can feel protected by this strictness.â), he also drinks Mateus rosé. That's it -- this guy needs taking out and pronto. We can't have a head of state that drinks crap table wine. Mateus is barely one step above Boones Farm, for Judeo-Christian White Male Patriarchal Deity's sake. It's what teenagers are supposed to puke up on the back seats of their parents' Elantras, not what Evil Overlords are supposed to sip while proofreading their next"Oooh! Yer majesty! Be strict with me!" It's that handy twist-off cap. Gets 'em every time. If you're an iron-fisted dictator, you give 'em a soulful look while twisting the cap and their pants fall right down... |

| #1 Mateus Rose? Sorry, when I see someone drinking that stuff I snigger. I certainly don't think 'Evil Overlord'. It's the sort of stuff you use to pad out a punch - when everything else has gone (including the Cinzano). BTW Fred, this blog is great. The story on the Kuchays' misfortune you posted on 6/21/2002 had me in stitches!! |
