#1 ACORN executives have also changed their organization's name

Ah, the old "shell game" approach. A new way to still funnel money into the organization when funding dries up.

#6 You are an absolute darling, Blinky Uluns9485, and you're welcome. However, if it's Jack Daniels, would you be good enough to drink mine, too? Mr. Wife has long enjoyed the fact that, with the alcohol tolerance of a small guppy, 'tis better if I plump for designated driver from the beginning. So I drive him both to and from drink.

/ducks really fast
