Soon to be a long lost memory.
What were the odds in Vegas of Al+Tipper untying the knot before Bill+Hillary?
Rush got to the question before I could, but I think I know how the judge is going to divvy up custody of the internet: Al gets IPv4, and Tipper gets IPv6.
However, evenly dividing three 30-inch electricity-sucking computer monitors is going to be a lot harder.
They’re living separately, even as I write this. Which one lives in the Middle Tennessee house that uses natural gas like it’s going out of style?
Al’s candidates to be his lawyer are down to two, so now all that matter is how little either George Mitchell or Bob Dole will charge him.
Last but not least, there will be a Love Story sequel portraying the events of this divorce. The tentative title is Love’s Boring.
UPDATE 6/2: Rush chimed in today. Like Rush, I don’t think he is having an affair. He’s too big of a dork to have one. Besides, there is no woman in this world who has such low self-esteem that she would let herself be his “other woman,” and have to endure his enviro-nutcase preaching. I think Rush’s theory is closest to accurate, that the marriage hasn’t been happy for awhile, and Tipper was waiting for the nest to empty out and for Al to come into some money, and now she’s “cashing out” before the East Anglia scandal cuts into his ill-gotten fortune.
Al and Tipper were married for 40 years. That’s long enough for four global warming armageddons.
Someone in the DC or NYC media claimed that the Gores were the likable bunch from the Clinton administration. Really? As if Bill and Hillary weren’t? Hell, these were the same dingleberries and doyennes that, a mere dozen years ago at this time, did nothing about tell us about Bill Clinton’s 65% approval rating in the midst of the Congressional GOP trying to hold him accountable for committing a Federal felony while President. It is also being said in the news of the Great Gore Knot Untying that Al Gore had the touch for the common man, because he not only went to St. Albans School in DC himself, but he also sent his four kids there. How many common people do you know went to an elite private school that now costs 37 kilobucks a year for kids as young as the 4th grade, and in turn sent his four children there? 51 kilobucks for HS students that require room and board.
Maybe the difference in Al+Tipper and Bill+Hillary is that the latter never really held delusions about true romantic love that the former did. I interpret Bill+Hillary as a political merger that just happened to have a little bit of sex (unless you believe the rumors that Web Hubbell is Chelsea Clinton’s real father, at which point there is no documented proof of Bill+Hillary ever doing it). Therefore, neither Bill nor Hillary had any false hopes or expectations about each other.
UPDATE 6/9: Daughter, too: Karenna Gore Schiff and her bankster heir husband are untying the knot.
About Al and Tipper: How will the judge determine custody of the lockbox? Will they saw it in half? Divide the contents but let one of them have the actual box?
