Not that there's anything wrong with that.

You can have inflation with fellatio, but you can't have . . . Well, you know.
Not successfully, anyway.
Posted by: 9 | September 27, 2010 at 10:16 AM
OK, that should have said "Inflation withOUT fellatio".
But, you probably knew that.
Posted by: 9 | September 27, 2010 at 10:17 AM
wow, she really blew that, huh?
Posted by: sandy | September 27, 2010 at 10:22 AM
Well that sucks.

Alan Greenspan makes that mistake all the time.

In other news, Bill Clinton was preparing to run for office in France.

That's what you get when you talk with your mouth full.

*snork* BFF
Apparently, one cannot snork with one's mouth full either!

Helas! For the troubled French nation
They’re tortured not just by inflation
But also, it seems,
By that worst of extremes…
The spectre of zero fellation.
Posted by: Betsy | September 27, 2010 at 11:38 AM
Well done, Betsy!
Posted by: NotSherly | September 27, 2010 at 11:55 AM
Most French guidebooks give you helpful phrases like, "May I have an Espresso?" or "We surrender." Is this helpful term ever mentioned. No.
Posted by: Hammond Rye | September 27, 2010 at 12:05 PM
Good one, Betsy!
The fellatio ratio is one of the leading erotic economic indicators.

(kowtows to betsy)
we're (not were) not worthy

Obviously her point was that inflation has brought us all down to our knees
Posted by: sandy | September 27, 2010 at 12:41 PM
I'll get on my knees for a woman . . . if she's on her elbows.
Posted by: bonmot | September 27, 2010 at 12:51 PM
There's more to this trickle-down economic theory than I thought.
(*adds a SNORK!@ Betsy*)
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | September 27, 2010 at 12:55 PM
Given the current chill in the economy, we can expect some shrinkage in the fellatio index.
Posted by: Horace LaBadie | September 27, 2010 at 01:02 PM
It's hard to tell if inflation is cumming or going.
Posted by: bonmot | September 27, 2010 at 01:38 PM
Her pole numbers indicate she's going down, but this could lead to a dramatic uptick.
Posted by: Martini Shark | September 27, 2010 at 01:41 PM
Sheesh. You people are crude. I can't swallow this nonsense.
Posted by: Siouxie | September 27, 2010 at 01:52 PM
SIOUXIE!!!!
(too . . . many . . . inappropriate . . . comments . . . in brain)

Posted by: sandy | September 27, 2010 at 02:14 PM
Just about to choke on it too!
Posted by: Siouxie | September 27, 2010 at 02:20 PM
Spitters are quitters.
Posted by: bonmot | September 27, 2010 at 02:34 PM
Thanks for the heads up.

Former French Minister Dati
(ho turns out to be quite the hottie),
with a slip of her tongue
made economy fun,
from a mouth that turns out to be potty.
Posted by: Punkin | September 27, 2010 at 02:37 PM
(who....not ho...pardon the Freudian slip)
Posted by: Punkin | September 27, 2010 at 02:38 PM
LOL BFF!
Posted by: Siouxie | September 27, 2010 at 02:42 PM
*snork* @ punkin's (not punkins') pun!
Altho her lips
deny the slips
Wherever she may roam,
Her eyes, with glee,
say 'Oui! Oui! Oui!'
All
the
way
home
Posted by: sandy | September 27, 2010 at 03:00 PM
Oui surrender.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | September 27, 2010 at 03:59 PM
There's a joke here about "Come to Me" in French, but I don't know how it goes. Somebody here does, though.
Posted by: bonmot | September 27, 2010 at 04:21 PM
Is it something about the Eyeful Tower? Nah.....
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | September 27, 2010 at 07:41 PM
Major snorks all round.

A Swiss friend was working as a translator at the Brookings Institute after WWII. In a Marshall Plan document, she wrote about"copulating boxcars" after looking it up in a dictionary and finding "joining together." Naturally, it made the bulletin board, and her husband won't let her forget it over 60 years later. Dati won't live this down, either.
