Garrison Keillor

To choose Norm Coleman over Walter Mondale is like going to a great steakhouse and ordering the tuna sandwich.

If you ever want to eat a tuna sandwich again, don't go to a tuna factory. I visited one where they had two lines: one was the human food line and one was the cat food line - and they didn't look any different.

Paradise Steakhouse

Id like to take you
To the edge of every morning
On a magic eiderdown
To a window chair
In the paradise steakhouse
Where theres a cup of silver coffee
Steaming chrome reflections
From the mist in your hair
Try not to watch me (try not to watch me)
Just call me after darkfall (call me after darkfall)
Ill bring a whip to sow
My seed on your land
In the paradise steakhouse
Theres a cup of silver coffee
A sheath of steel so you may hold
My sword in your hand
Ill cut you, divide you
Into tender pieces
No wings to fly away
Upon my dear
In the paradise steakhouse
On a plate upon a table
I will carve your name with care
To last the years
Id like to eat you (Id like to eat you)
All fire will consume you (fire will consume you)
Roast on the spit of love
On this arrow true
In the paradise steakhouse
Ill taste every finger
Baking [picking? ] in the ashes
Til the flames rise anew
[repeat first and second stanzas]

Séance ordering…

Séance ordering…

There is, there is
This ice curtain
Of silent conversation
A séance ordering…
Watch and you'll learn.
{Understanding, unspoken}…
How it works I've no idea.
I speak to her in thoughts,
Your coffee is going cold. Dear.
And then she picks it up.
I think of a Merlot red wine
Punctually the glass arrives.
I then picture a sandwich
Promptly, I'm asked.
Cheese or ham my love.
I think of a friend's name.
They're mentioned in passing…
I think soon what I shall buy.
Then it's Googled in a millisecond!
There is, there is
There is an ice curtain. Dear.
That only applies, when we speak!

Our society has changed in unforeseeable ways since Social Security was created. For example, we are living longer, healthier, and more productive lives and while this is all great news, this has also placed added pressure on America's retirement system.

Political image is like mixing cement. When it's wet, you can move it around and shape it, but at some point it hardens and there's almost nothing you can do to reshape it.

In our system, at about 11:30 on election night, they just push you off the edge of the cliff-and that's it. You might scream on the way down, but you're going to hit the bottom, and you're not going to be in elective office.

Running for President is physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually the most demanding single undertaking I can envisage unless it's World War III.

I said I didn't want to spend most of my life in Holidays Inns, but I've checked and they've all been redecorated. They're marvelous places to stay and I've thought it over and that's where I'd like to be.

Large

The quiet man exploded
like a termite full of
poison through the air
and on the table with
used napkins and a
quarter for a tip to
go to waitress who
had served the man a
tuna on a bread with
mayo sandwich and a
coffee and a jalapeno
chopped and mixed
with beans.

It is easy to criticize, particularly in a political season. But to lead is something altogether different. The leader must live in the real world of the price that might be paid for the goal that has been set.

Our cattlemen have given us the safest, most abundant, most affordable beef supply in the world and I trust their judgment. And if you look at consumer confidence in this country, so does the American public.
