...sex is irrelevant unless it leads to a tax increase...
...let me say that all of us in New York were happy to learn that he has been scheduling his assignations in our state. Really, times are tough, and we need all the business we can get. Although it is true that our hotels can be somewhat pricey, there are lots of discounts, and the airfare to New York is way, way cheaper than it is to Argentina...
...I think I speak for us all when I say that no spouse is allowed more than one officially sanctioned goodbye visit to his mistress. Especially since there was apparently no spiritual counselor invited on the Argentina leg, an oversight that I’m sure was because of the expense.
Yet another reason why it is better to schedule all these get-togethers in the Big Apple. (Broadway tickets sold at a discount near Times Square!)
Having affairs in New York is a longtime American political tradition. The late, great R.W. Apple Jr. once told me that when he was a metro reporter for The Times in 1963, he was assigned to stake out the lobby of a hotel in Manhattan where President John F. Kennedy was spending the night. While on the lookout for official visitors, Apple said he saw “a young woman of a Hollywood nature” heading for the presidential suite. He quickly called his editor, who informed him “I was there to report the comings and goings of statesmen, not starlets.”...
Oh, and by the way, it is so much more economic to have a mistress with the same first name as your wife.
