Today's hoot!
The Toronto Sun amuses with Wanted: Pantless senator wearing 'cuffs:
OTTAWA -- The Red Chamber is blushing again with the revelation on its Web site that a senator may have recently lost a pair of pants and the key to a set of handcuffs. The Senate Web site has raised eyebrows with its listing of a number of items found around the place earlier this year.

Senator Lowell Murray warned his colleagues last week that this type of revelation is the last thing the chamber needs.

"Do we have to excite the lurid imagination of our enemies by making this raw data so readily available? Mark my words: The media will get ahold of this," Murray was quoted as saying yesterday.
I guess so.
Murray predicted that cartoons will appear in newspapers showing a "handcuffed, trouserless senator of either gender wandering our corridors" looking for their pants, handcuffs, handkerchief and notebook.
Party on, dude!
