“Okay,” Juanita begins this afternoon after getting back from lunch with Miss Bessy, her mentor and favorite teacher at The Elite Beauty School of Del Rio, Texas, “Miss Bessy has got me to wondering something.”

“You know those bumbling Russian spies we caught who apparently lived large and were dumber than bean dip?”

“Well, Honey, we traded them to the Russians for some of our spies who got caught.  I hope we also got a first round draft choice, a player to be named later, and Lebron James.”

“But, Miss Bessy and I are wondering.  Were our spies as dumb as theirs?  Apparently so, because they got caught, too.”

“So, why do we want them back?  I hope we aren’t counting on them to stop the oil spill or figure out how to get the economy working.  In fact, Miss Bessy and I think they should be sent to Arizona, where the other stupid people live.”

“Miss Bessy, who is a very wise woman, believes we should send all the stupid people to Arizona so they’ll leave the rest of us alone.”

“At the very least, they should have to wear a tee-shirt that says ‘Dumber Than Russians’ every time they go in public so we’ll know.”

Missy Bessy should get elected to Congress.
