Jay Scott : Daily Whale : archive : 2003 : 15 March 2003

Edison, 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration 1% insipience and 99% impercipience

Bush: War is 1% installation--
speech coach: Instigation.
Bush: Integration, and 99% perforation.
speech coach: Perduration. Try again.
Bush: Right. 1% perspicacity and 99% incapacity.
speech coach: Uh, closer. One more time.
Bush: War is 1% incantation and 99% peroration.
speech coach: I give up! I give up! You can't talk at all! Rrrrg, no wonder you always want to bypass diplomacy.
Bush: I have call-in power to do that for me.
speech coach: Colin Powell! I quit! Goodbye!
Bush: Coral powder, right. Now, where was I? War is 1% insinuation and 99% perseveration, that's it.
