"Name," says St. Peter. <br />"Margaret Thatcher," she replies. <br /><br />St. Peter checks through all the lists on his clipboard but cannot find the name of the former British leader. "I am sorry," he says, "you cannot come in. Your place is downstairs, in Hell. Mrs. Thatcher turns and walks down the stairs. <br /><br />A short time later the phone rings. St. Peter answers, and a voice says, "Hello Peter, it is the Devil speaking. You will have to take that bloody woman after all - she is only been here for ten minutes and she has closed half the furnaces to reduce capacity."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4413130168723738166.post-82221170578639750292010-10-07T15:33:20.101-07:002010-10-07T15:33:20.101-07:00OK, Duot, I take it you mean exclusively in the fi...OK, Duot, I take it you mean exclusively in the field of domestic economic policy?

The guy with the loudspeaker asks me, "where are you going when you die?" And I respond, "where all the interesting people are." He then yells back "why would you want to go to Hell?" And realizing just what he has done, he immediately becomes quiet, looks nervously at the crowd, and spends the next 30 minutes attempting to talk his way out of the mess I put him in with a single careless phrase! :-DJeremy Jansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03218395232783877050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4413130168723738166.post-12185472420575373732010-10-06T15:44:00.580-07:002010-10-06T15:44:00.580-07:00Duot, my apologies.
