From an e-mail I just got “from Michelle Obama”
“If you chip in between now and Monday, you’ll be automatically entered for the chance to join Barack at George Clooney’s house on May 10th.”
No disrespect to the President, but I had a sex dream like this once.

Just when you think you’ve seen everything. And it all reads a bit like a non-denial denial — as if it’s impossible that it’s true, while still admitting that some clerics believe it to be true, so it could happen.
Alleged proposals to allow Egyptian husbands to legally have sex with their dead wives for up to six hours after their death have been branded a ‘complete nonsense’.
The controversial new ‘farewell intercourse’ law was claimed, in Arab media, to be part of a raft of measures being introduced by the Islamist-dominated parliament.
They reported it would also see the minimum age of marriage lowered to 14 and the ridding of women’s rights of getting education and employment.But sources inside the Egyptian Embassy in London have said the claims were ‘completely false’, ‘forbidden in Islam’ and ‘could never imagine it happening’.
The source said the proposal, if it even existed, had not reached the parliament – although it was also admitted it could be the work of an extremist politician.
Although not officially rebutted, the claims that someone inside Egypt could introduce such a law provoked widespread scepticism.
The initial report, published on reputable English language website alarabiya.net, claimed Egypt’s National Council for Women was reportedly campaigning against the changes.
It said the group said that ‘marginalising and undermining the status of women would negatively affect the country’s human development’.
Dr Mervat al-Talawi, head of the NCW, wrote to the Egyptian People’s Assembly Speaker Dr Saad al-Katatni addressing her concerns.Egyptian journalist Amro Abdul Samea reported in the al-Ahram newspaper that Talawi complained about the legislations which are being introduced under ‘alleged religious interpretations’.
The subject of a husband having sex with his dead wife arose in May 2011 when Moroccan cleric Zamzami Abdul Bari said marriage remains valid even after death.
He also said that women have the right to have sex with her dead husband.
Better hurry, honey. That rigor mortis window is a small one.
