this one is hat tip to Regroce at BuzzFlash:

"Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) is making off-color jokes again -- this time at the expense of a Senate colleague. ... 'There once was a man named Vitter/Who vowed that he wasn't a quitter/But with stories of women/And all of his sinnin'/He knows his career's in the -- oh, never mind,' Kerry said."

I was surprised too ... Kerry is usually so dry ... never would have imagined that limericks were his forte.

A call for investigative journalists? (none / 0) (#5)

Over the next months, Slate asks you to help us try to tell the story of the Repository for Germinal Choice and to find out what happened to its parents, children, and donors. This will be a journalistic experiment in two ways. First, it will unfold before you. As Slate editor Michael Kinsley explains in this "Slate Fare" column, I will write the story as I report it. It will be transparent journalism. As I learn more--or fail to--you will find out here. (In addition to learning about the participants, I will write about how the repository worked, why the sperm donors' offspring rights' movement is growing, what has happened to American eugenics, and how the repository changed the sperm-bank industry.)
The second part of the experiment is even more important. We hope to harness the collaborative power of the Web to make it succeed. I want you to be my sources and guides on this story. So we invite anyone connected with the repository--parents, children, donors, and employees, their friends and families, anyone else--to contact Slate by e-mailing me at plotzd@slate.com, calling me at (202) 862-4889, or mailing me at Slate, 1150 17th St. NW, 10th Floor, Washington, D.C., 20036.
