``I read it costs $800,000 to raise an eighteen year old. For $800,000, you can buy one hell of a nice eighteen year old.''

That was a lot of money back then.; 4/20/09, 7:43 AM

That one worked for John Murtha. It’ll probably work for Rafiq Qureshi.; 4/20/09, 10:21 AM

... I don't. I think this is made-up crap like their other made-up crap. I wish these tabloids ever gave a thought to the people they lie about.; 4/20/09, 8:04 PM
