2. At least
that predatory-looking Reagan image captures a higher truth, which is also very well expressed in the curious fact that you can rearrange the letters in "RONALD WILSON REAGAN" to spell "INSANE ANGLO WARLORD."

The other entries are just kitsch. Is the card sharp monkey the croupier for the table full of poker-playing dogs?

11. Anagrams of politicians' names can be great fun.
Under the last Conservative government here the Health Secretary was Virginia Bottomley, which can be changed round to "I'm an evil tory bigot".

9. Brings tears of joy to my eyes (sniff)
We scored a velvet elvis once on a street corner for a friend - and laughed for days.

8. oh weeping jesus for sure
saw about a thousand of them in Tijuana last week.

"You buy this excellent art! 99% Off!!! What you want? Girls? Watches? Silver for your mother for your girlfriend? Paintings? Pharmacy! We make you deal! Cheap margaritas!"

Tijuana is not my cup of tea - alas poor Jesus wept on acres of velvet down there.

They had a velvet painting skit on clowns, sad-eyed orphans, and bulls - what a hoot.
