"Sofistikation"

Poor Marilyn. The Greeley Tribune's columnist, Mike Peters, is making fun of her again.

So, there I was, driving safely on the Greeley streets, eating a cinnamon roll, drinking coffee, reading a book and listening to Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee on the radio, when all of a sudden, Our Favorite CongressGal Marilyn Musgrave is on the radio and she says, "I just wish the Tribune was a little more ... (thoughtful pause) ... sophisticated.''

One thing leads to another . . .

Hence (How about that, Marilyn? "Hence" is a really sophisticated word) Hence, if we put all the meanings of the word together, "sophistication" means "an overbearing,tiresome woman who sucks the lifeblood out of people who don't agree with her."

Gee, Marilyn, does that sound like somebody we know?
