European Discourse

[Grumpy]

In another post, Bassen-Bug made reference to European "name calling" and I told her they were much more civil about it than we are. Anyhow, I couldn't help but remember something I had read about Winston Churchill, which happened while he was a Member of Pariment and before he became Prime Minister.

One day when they came back to work after the noon "Tea Break", Churchill was obviously tipsy. A woman in the gallery shouted: "Sir Winston, you are drunk!" To which Churchill replied: "Yes ma'am, and you are UGLY!! The difference is, tomorrow I will be sober."
