Oh, Amy!

That's funny stuff. Sad that there isn't a single person in my family
who would get the joke.

Lessee, am I worthy of an intercept? <<

I don't think that's even a _question_, Rob. ;-)

Do my friends/family ever stammer, or get angry or excited when they talk
about politics?

Yes. Yes they do. Some even begin to froth.

Do my friends/family enjoy eating "falafel"?

NO... hey wait! *I* enjoy falafel! <<

I originally had "middle eastern food" there, but a friend reminded me that
"falafel" is comedy gold. I couldn't argue with that.

Do my friends/family watch "The West Wing" on NBC Sunday nights?

Ever since Sorkin left the show, it's just not the same, anymore...

Is my friend's/family member's hair longer than is 'conventional'?

What if my wife's hair is shorter than 'conventional'? <<

I won't touch that with a ten foot pole.

Do my friends/family buy organic produce?

Well, yeah. Did you just see someone looking at me? I could have sworn
there was someone peeking around the cheese aisle...

Does my friend/family member have any music by Cat Stevens, Anthrax or
Green Day on their iPod?

Hmm. No iPods here. I guess I can't be subversive that way! But I do
have Bebel Gilberto on my iPodless iTunes... does that count for
anything? Hmm?

Rob, thanking Amy for a good laugh <<

Glad you enjoyed it, Rob!
