[Ads-l] a good one that Fred has missed

[George Thompson]

A very long obituary in today's NYTimes of Denis Healy, an English
politician ends:
Lord Healey used humor to make precise points, but his most famous line
described all too many situations. What he called “Healey’s First Law of
Holes” advises, “When in one, stop digging.”
