It was a week of politics, but not political correctness on this week's Menage.

First, we outed Pat Robertson's bizarre, racist remarks regarding Haiti. We actually called his toll-free number to ask how much money the 700 Club has raised for Haitian relief so far, and what percentage of that money actually GOES THERE, instead of "administrative costs" -- but no answers. What a surprise. That number is 1-800-759-0700. (By the way, the God I believe in ain't short of cash, mister.)

The Menage actually recomends dontating through Wyclef Jean's Yele Haiti Foundation. It's easy -- text yele to 501501 to donate $5.

Also this week, Judy Clibborn had the misfortune of getting on our radar, for blocking a bill that would fund music education in schools. We'll have a star-studded show next week, with representatives of Music Aid Northwest, to talk more in depth about HB 2763. In the meantime, Judy's number is (360) 786-7926. Full disclosure: her assistant was both rude and indiscreet to Julie. (Bad move, assistant.)

Representative Judy Clibburn is, of course, invited to come on the show and explain herself. We aren't holding our breath waiting for her to accept.

In happier news, I had a birthday and can now die a happy woman, since I went to hear George Clinton and P-Funk. The Mothership has landed! In my pants! Woohoo!

The next day, George Clinton came to me in a vision. He said, "If you can laugh all day everyday, you're better off than a millionaire."

Your thoughts?

Many thanks and mad love to our guests this week: Alex Meyer, The Big Funny Travis Simmons, Eddie Brill, Erik Rufer, Cisco McCarthy, Nancy Frieko, Danielle Radford, Greg Roth, Lucy Horton; all of our regular listeners, and everyone who listened for the first time.

Hug someone a little too long this weekend.

Love,
Jennifer and Julie
The Menage
