@ Sully:
PMS to you too, pithy little poet.

Wow! A guy in a suit and tie with interesting things to say wandered in!

Makes me wanna have a bath and a shave and say thanks.

@ strangelet:
I thought it's more "Get that off my lawn. Have your dog clean up after you. There's laws!"

@ Sully:
perhaps you can help list the wars of the last 50 years that weren't worth denouncing.

I've got VN , Gulf 1, Afghan, Iraq as the possibles. The first and last are full FUBARs , and Gulf 1 was a war lacking much of a moral imperative.

@ Sully:
Cripes, Sully. McGovern denounced a bad war not the need for moral worth.

Do you generally assume that lefties are wrong?

@ CK MacLeod:
I guess you failed to contemplate the influence of contemporary Hebraic athletics upon Cameron's work and, even more gravely, you're dismissive of the impact of the Kent State massacre.

Julian Edelman rocks!

Nothing Edelman does is going to save the Patriots, Zolt. Baltimore may end up catching as many of Brady's passes as Edelman will.

A John Bolton tribute?

@ narciso:
Well, if you're not going to go looking to pick out something, I'll ask the Tsar work on it.

Tell me what you think of this one for you.

Should we look at some more or is this it?

@ Sully:
Bertie was canceled in Philadelphia??? Never even made it to New Haven??
Sad story.
But the part about diseases and infestation sounds very nice.
Did that resonate with you while you were floating through the Pacific?

George definitely brought his own finger to the party.

@ narciso:
Since you have no small amount of imagination, why don't you find a pictoral representation of yourself?
The Tsar can easily affix it to your ethereal self.

The Tsar seems to be AWOL, so I thought I would offer a suitable caution about the bacterial disadvantage of a too-closed system.

Tell me, older timer, of this Bertie the Whatever. What was she like?

@ George Mikos:
cause our own sweat smells the best.
Clean up that finger George, who knows where your butt has been.

@ Dave C:
What's the value of petroleum to pre-industrial people?

@ narciso:
Now, silly thing, didn't I tell you that I don't watch all that much TV.
I've never seen the Daily Show except as three or four short clips reproduced on the web.
I had never heard of Glenn Beck until I fell in with unsavory and undead companions.

(Frogman Henry.... good. I knew you would do better.)

@ Sully:
If that's your gambit, add large dog with vanilla shake muzzle-coating.

It might work out well.

@ Sully:
There's a special price for people with disabilities. Wear really dark glasses, carry a cane, and you might get in half-price.

@ CK MacLeod:
Enjoyed the comment, very much liked the review/essay, and if you're all hopo with Bolton and Palin and won't heed advice to lay off the hoppy-nuts, don't blame me.

@ CK MacLeod:
1)I should have put up the link.

2) Promise me that you won't use "hoppy-nuts" again.

3)I doubt that you could much increase your liking for Palin, unless she

4) I don't hate Officer Bolton and have offered up his own absurd opinions as argument for not respecting him.

@ narciso:
Narc, Bolton is a damned nut and has been nuts for decades.

Go back and read his stupid editorial saying that Clinton's trip to North Korea was going to be fruitless, was mistaken, was an insult to Roxana Saberi and would harm her chances of being released.

@ Rex Caruthers:
Palin looks just fine. I just hope that her education is heavily supplemented long before she again is pushed for national office.

@ narciso:
Bolton remains a truculent fool. His nationalism is of little use unless employed as a lesson in what to avoid.

I still like Bolton saying that Bush would bomb Iran before the expiration of his term in office.

@ CK MacLeod:
If Jean Kirkpatrick remains dead, her side of any conversation with Palin would still be the more informed and up-to-date one.

Nothing alien is human to me.
