“A moment I’ve been dreading. George brought his n’er-do-well son around this morning and asked me to find the kid a job.

Maybe I’ll call Kinsley over at The New Republic and see if they’ll hire him as a contributing editor or something. That looks like easy work.”

It’s all right here on Snopes.

Thanks James.
