Sara Makes a Phone Call

It's snowy outside and I'm bored, so I wrote this fictional, and possibly humerous, account of a telephone call...

Hello, President-Elect Obama? This is Governor Palin. Is it OK if I call ya' Barack? Sure, I'm invitin' you and Joe there to come on up here to the great State of Alaska to do some huntin'. Because there's no roads up here, we do all our shootin' from airplanes, and it's a lot safer that way too, so those darn bears can't get ya' when yer not lookin', right? And if ya' shoot somethin', I'll have Todd here ride over on his snow machine. He'll cut it up and do all of that huntin ' and guttin' stuff, and he'll bring it on out for ya'. What's that? You'll have to get back to me? OK... can you put Michelle on the phone then? Hi, Michelle? Yeah, this is Sara...... Palin....... Sara Palin......... P-A-L-I-N...... Yeah, the one that ran there for Vice President against Joe... yeah...... B-I-D-E-N. OK then, never mind... I'll get back to ya'...
