While the gherkin resides in the relish tray ironically relish is made with pickles.

Of course Clark's Harry Morton, on the Burns and Allen Show, was an undeniable tour de force of dyspeptic henpecked husband which will live through the ages.

Not a single reference to cornichons! Embarrassing. Too bad I can’t think of a good zinger.

Hey Sylvia. Feel sorry for the whole country being duped into either choice by a media apparatus Joe Gobbles would have praised Satan himself for....I'm appolitical and can spot charlatans with eyes closed.

Is there a level below low-brow?

Wikipedia sez: "In 1997, Trammell was elected to the Arkansas House of Representatives, where he served until 2002. He unsuccessfully sought a State Senate seat in 2002, losing to Jerry Bookout"

But to be fair, Jerry Bookout likely didn't release any records, so who can say if he actually won that primary

If you can't trust a smart toaster, then what does that say about everyone's smartphone. Should we turn them on and lock them in the shed.
