WE ARE IN HER HANDS


that's right folks. in rita we bestow our trust. 96. blind. deaf. this is what we're reduced to. THINGS are SO TIGHT that ham features will have to rely on a handful of elderly life senators to FORM A GOVERNMENT. As the oldest of the old, the venerable Rita will preside the first meeting of the Senate and speak on behalf of all the life senators on what position to take. Lucky for us, they seem to have the right idea: ``Se il presidente Ciampi respinge le sue dimissioni, Berlusconi gliele confermi e se ne vada alle Bahamas.'' (Cossiga).

clearly this country's human talent pool has run dry. and we are relying on what we can salvage from the turn of the century. RITA I LOVE YOU. rock my world.
