I hope they don’t mind me reproducing the image; it’s fair trade considering the creeps I’m going to have in my dreams tonight and my cereal bowl tomorrow morning! “A” Daily Show also goes for a mustache ride at McCain’s campaign in New Hampshire [Celeb Endorsements].
Try this. Maybe it will make you feel better. If not, the good taste will distract you for a few minutes.
