Good rock and roll should often be funny and have the ability to offend the easily offended simultaneously. It’s just the hint of a smile in the statesman-like portrait that does it.

The Los Angeles Times political gossip page: Nov. 3, 2003:
A couple of MP3 online musical parodies by “Arnold and the Gropinators,” a “Venice Beach garage metal” band, have surfaced … the A-side title, “I Think We Should Make a Carla Sandwich,” is taken from a description in The Times of an alleged movie set incident in which Schwarzenegger and his stand-in trapped stand-in [Carla] next to a food service table. Schwarzenegger supposedly said, “I think we should make a Carla sandwich,” and the men squeezed her between them. After they released her, [she] said, Schwarzenegger stuck his tongue in her mouth.
One of the best notices I ever had.
