Words to Live By

One night some nine years ago, Australian Senator Nigel Scullion somehow managed to end up handcuffed to a stripper’s pole in St. Petersburg, Russia. In his underwear. Not that he’s apologizing for it, though. Instead, he offers these words to wisdom:

“It was a terrific night,” he says of the partying following a fishing conference in the Russian city. “If you ever get an offer to go drinking with Icelandic whalers and Canadian crab fishermen, take them up on it.”

Yep.

    Either it’s a dumb joke or Senator Scullion’s memory is a bit fuzzy.

    what’s sad is the state of FEER, once a serious journalistic institution.

    he also said that if learned anything from the evening that it was to never let anyone handcuff you to a pole and always wear clean underwear.
