PRUNE JUICED

LIKE so many of America's washed-up acts, Bill Clinton is making a big splash with the Japanese. Bubba is heading to Las Vegas next week to give a series of speeches to over 8,000 saleswomen from a Japanese company that markets a vitamin supplement extracted from prunes, reports Vegas TV station KVBC. After imparting his wisdom, Clinton, who charges $100,000 for speaking engagements, will spend time golfing and taking in a few shows with newspaper publisher Brian Greenspun.

[Hmm. Greenspun?]

Am I the only one here who thinks this is unseemly for an ex-president? Yeah, yeah, I know, it pales by comparison to nicking nooky in the White House, but still. Can't he make his 100k at a somewhat more dignified Shriner's convention or something? I guess Hillary's nagging him about those legal bills and Chelsea's Oxford fees again.

Let's just hope that they all partake just before he begins to speak. After just getting started, let's hope that they all need to go... let the prunes extract themselves.
