Senator Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) really has a thing for tubes. Not long ago, Stevens displayed his ignorance about the Internet by describing it as a "series of tubes." Brilliant!
Apparently, however, those were not the only tubes of interest to Stevens. This time it's tubes as in plumbing and wiring.
As I write this, the FBI and IRS are searching Stevens' Anchorage home as part of a corruption investigation into the re-modeling his house -- work possibly paid for by Veco, an oil-field service company that lobbies government extensively.
When it comes to tubes, maybe Senator Stevens is more of an expert than we knew.
