A Few Words on Deep Throat

This story has calmed down a little bit after a week, which is fine by me. A majority of the stories that have come out about the Watergate informant have been focused on whether the guy was a hero or not.

For decades the words Deep Throat have appeared in high school text books, causing giddy laughter from countless students across this great nation.

Let us remember the real importance of the Great American Mystery. Deep Throat provided precious escape from boring history lessons, escape that will most likely wane and disappear as new textbooks are printed and given to our children. Will they be able to forgive us?
