“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Oh my.

Thanks to my good friend JohnnyReb, who found this.

Quote
Dear Abby: My elderly uncle and aunt have a son-in-law who — to put it mildly — spins tall tales. “Tom” has been everywhere, done everything and insists on telling anyone who will listen all about it. He speaks many languages fluently (until someone addresses him in one of them) and has had countless adventures in various countries, although he can’t locate them on a map.
 
My uncle and aunt have bought two cars for their financially unstable daughter and this phony. Both times, Tom insisted on maintaining them himself. Afterward, both cars required major repairs and eventually had to be scrapped.

After Tom’s stint as a highly decorated Navy SEAL, he morphed into a genius at creating computer software, when he wasn’t touring with a famous bluegrass band — the name of which he can’t remember.
 
I am concerned that my uncle and aunt are so awed by this man that they might one day allow him to manage their finances (there is no topic Tom is not an expert on) or let him fix the brakes on their vehicle. I think you know where I’m heading.
 
I have to bite my tongue to keep from saying, “Tom, Yokohama is a city, not a country. And if you’re really best friends with Johnny Depp, why not invite him over so we can all meet him?”
 
Is there a way to tactfully intervene before something awful happens without upsetting anyone?

- - - - - - - - - -

Yes, if you do it privately, and say you are speaking up only because you are worried about their welfare. Then explain why you think Tom’s stories don’t hold water and point out that if he should volunteer any financial advice to them they should first run it past an unbiased non-family member such as their banker, lawyer, CPA or pastor before making any investments.
 
From your description, Tom appears to be a con man or compulsive liar. But whether your uncle and aunt choose to accept your input is up to them.

My guess is JohnnyReb himself masterpieced that.

Like me, he probably doesn't read the women's section of the newspaper, and so why would he have found this unless he were specifically looking for it?

Oh.

When it comes to the newspaper, I just read the news, editorials, sports, and weather, and chuck the rest.

Since when have they been putting the crossword puzzle in the women's section?

It's always been in the TV/crossword/funny pages section of the paper here.  I guess that counts as the "womens" part of the paper... they post recipes too.
