Mad Manx
By Mitch Berg
Nothing sets off an ad that says “this a car for a responsible parent who needs to haul a bunch of kids around safely” like…
…the “If I Should Fall From Grace With God” by The Pogues, a band led by Shane MacGowan, an alcoholic so prodigious he makes Keith Richards, Pete Townsend and Ozzy Osbourne look like Phyllis Schlafly.
Not that I don’t love hearing the Pogues on prime time TV, don’t get me wrong…

Have you seen his picture recently? Keith Richards already kind of looks like Phyllis Schlafly.

Who knew the Hanson brothers had grandkids? There should have been a shot of the kids in the backseat putting on the foil.

You say prodigious alcoholic like it’s a bad thing.

No kidding, Kerm — we just elected one governor.

I don’t think the word “prodigious” could ever be accurately applied to Mark Dayton, no matter what context is used.
