Great Straight Line From Mayor Nickels

Last week, Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels said:

I have nothing but joy in my head.

(Those not in this area may need to know that Mayor Nickels came in third in the primary earlier this year, and will be looking for a new job soon.)

6. When he said "joy" he meant that as the pronunciation of the acronymn J.O.Y., as in "Jokes On You".

8. I could say more, but in the end and without dispariging the man any further, Seattlites just realized that Mayor Nickels just wasn't worth his salt.
