This incident has been one of the best gifts to comedians in several eons--as Jon Stewart acknowledged last night.    You really need to catch his "press conference" apologizing for how he has covered the issue--and as a result turning the Daily Show over to John Oliver , whose accent (British) "falsely makes you believe you can trust him."    Then John Oliver promises to deliver the "pre-pubescent jokes" the Daily Show audience had been waiting in 90- degree heat to hear.

Then the show tells us how men's obsession with their own sex organs has been responsible for so much progress:    Edison, for instance, realized that there were 12 hours in the day when women could not see his phallus--so invented the light bulb to alleviate this problem.

A woman points out that if you are a 7-term Congressman and a woman is still not interested in you, dolng what Weiner did is just not going to close the deal
What women really want is a a phallus which is a good listener, nurturing, etc.

I've also heard, for instance, one explanation of why Weiner did it:    to make sure everybody knew how to pronounce his name.

Also heard last week that it had been a bad week for cell-phone users:    1)   your phone may make you sick 2)    you may get a tweet from Rep Weiner.

This incident is the gift that keeps on giving.
