The greatest power of all
Is considered by some to be small
With a glint in her eye,
A smile and a sigh,
I come whenever she calls

Book Humour. A Sideways Perspective on the Bonkers Business of Books
This is the blog of a woman who is seriously on the edge and I mean right ON the edge…no, not there… just a little bit further… further than that…no, further still…just a tiny bit more… just move slightly to the right a little…no, that’s too much…just move a tad to the left…that’s right, just there…now you’ve moved too far to the left… Damn, what part of the ‘on the edge’ do you not understand? Oh, and her matricidal boy genius, come devil spawn.

Thanks Olga. I remember hearing a story (anecdote?) a few years back, about when Hillary met Bill Clinton, and said “that man’s going to be President”… The joke being that if she had stayed with her previous partner, that he’d have been President instead! Will be interesting to see if she gets her chance to demonstrate that female force from the front of the podium 🙂
