Jack Applin (one of several people to send this to me): I get the implication of “You’re in the marines? The army must have rejected you,” but the significance of the parking lot escapes me. Are Dr. Shipley’s marine skills doubled in parking lots, so he can easily kill Leo for this offense?

Earlier this month, we were all shocked — shocked, I say — by Mark McGwire’s admission that he was taking steroids the year that he suddenly bulked up and shattered Roger Maris’s home run record (though he insists he would have hit those 70 home runs anyway). Today, John Edwards confirmed that he is indeed the father of the two-year-old girl whose mother he was having affair with in the months before and after the child was conceived (in possibly the lamest deception in political history, one of Edwards’s staffers had claimed that he was the father. Edwards’s confession came about because the staffer has written a tell-all book. They just don’t make flunkies the way they used to).
So today’s question is, assuming these things come in threes, who will be the next public figure to come clean about something everybody already knew?
