#1 A couple of things Rush said today:

1. The property settlement needs to specify which one gets the royalties from inventing the Internet.

2. Does this mean Erich Segal has to rewrite the ending of Love Story?

#2 Global warming caused the split. It causes everything.

#3 I've heard that he wasn't as stiff as he used to be.

Or was it stuck-up?

Wooden?

#4 Tipper Gore, who has acknowledged treatment for depression after Albert III's accident, is a vocal advocate on mental health issues.

She certainly gave it the college try. Perhaps becoming an "advocate on mental health issues" clearly enabled her to recognize the total nut case she'd been sleeping with for 40 years.

#5 I don't think I'd call Gore a "nut case". I'd call him a thief and a con man.

#6 Word, Jefferson.

Though he can be all 3 at once. :-(

Wasn't she also involved in trying to censor music a number of years ago? How'd that work out for ya', Tip?

I think maybe Tip's getting out now because she sees the handwriting on the wall and realizes that their financial holdings right now is the most the Gorebot will ever have to split with her.

Or maybe she's finally willing to admit what a creep he is.

#7 Sounds like the new Ice Age has shown up at the Gore estate.

#8 Would love to see it get nasty and Tipper does a press conference: "He playyyyed on our fearrrrrs!"

#9 Absolutely no joke or snark here: I think it's well known in the "global warming profiteer community" that the gravy train is leaving the tracks, and she wants half of Al's take before it begins to shrink or come under attack in anti-fraud lawsuits...

#10 Barb, IIRC she wasn't asking for censorship, but labeling. As a parent I don't find that unreasonable.
I remember the snarling the pair of them got from hardliners: the Gores were being unfriendly to the earth because they had 4 kids.
