Dual-purpose Dick

Apparently today's the third aniversary of Dick Cheney being fitted with a "dual-purpose pacemaker". Dual-purpose how? High-speed setting for sex or the need to flee from an angry mob? Super-low-speed setting so you can hibernate through those depressing winter months? Is there a little switch somewhere, or is it smarter than that? Or does it have two completely different functions? Great marketing ploy. "Not only will it keep you alive, Dick, it's also an MP3 player. And you won't believe the bass you get. Uhuh, straight through the ribcage. Awesome. But don't give the remote control to people who don't like you."

I think the two purposes include keeping him alive and being connected to George W. If George does somthing too stupid, the device gives Cheney a painful jolt every five seconds till he sets things right.

I've been trying to sell an idea of mine, the "Semtex Collar" to keep politicians from getting dangerously out of control. In some cases (Clinton for example) it would not necessarily have been fitted round the neck.
