I'd rather get a fruitcake

The New Jersey Federation of Democratic Women has come up with a new fund-raising idea - a calendar featuring New Jersey legislators and their pets. Quick, duck, before you're struck by the calendars flying off the shelves.
Among the featured pinups - Assembly Speaker Joseph J. Roberts and his parrot Utley, Assemblywoman Bonnie Watson Coleman and her dog Caleb and Assemblyman Louis Greenwald (Dist. 6) and his yellow Lab Ridgley - along with his wife and three kids.
Former Gov. Florio, his wife Lucinda and their golden retriever Casey also posed for the occasion.
Advice to the federation's fund-raising committee: If you're inclined to do a calendar next year and are looking for ways to jack up sales, tell the pets to leave their owners home for the photo shoot.

I'd rather have a hand out calendar from a pizza parlor.
