Somebody settle an argument for me please…?
When people in the circus have had enough, what do they run away and join?

I hope so. Cause I am fresh out of content.
A blast FROM the past: E-TV – All -=e=- all the time
It requires the RealPlayer Basic of course.
In my March 2001 episode-
(Check it out)
I’m backing up all my files, and I came to the realization that I start a lot of things and never finish them.
I hate that about me.
I should really sit down one day and concentrate on doing ONE thing really well, rather than a lot of half-assed things.
Doing research on commercials FROM the Sixties… some cool links to bring back memories coming up.
(For the record, I have no idea what I believe in/don’t believe in any more. While I find the Bible impossible to acknowledge as “the inerrant word of God”, at the same time… something deep inside of me feels there’s something larger than all of us out there somewhere. And maybe, just maybe, there were bits of Higher Truth dictated to people at their level of understanding at the time. I can’t EXPLAIN it. So what I don’t understand, I mock & ridicule)
But I digress…
Not since the above-mentioned title of this post have I laughed so hard at a verbal misfire FROM the fundies….
Until tonight when I saw this post.
“The Bible says: ‘to thine own self be true.’…”
Why are Americans so Stupid?
It’s harsh. It’s heated… for a guy like me that psychoanalyzes people for a hobby, it’s a smorgasboard of various viewpoints and cultural mindsets.
I know, I know… we Americans don’t like criticism FROM outside parties, and it’s bound to piss you off. But I implore you to take a deeper look inside the comments. It delves INTO the various mentalities of Americans, Europeans, Arabs, Christians, Muslims, Atheists…
You can write a thesis based on this thread.
I love Les’ site… he and his guests always pull off an amazing blend of intellectual discussion in his threads.
Oy. What a mess.
So much for us all being back to normal after November 3rd, huh?
I’ve thought long and hard on what to say about all the bitterness, sniping, gloating, attacking, crazy talk, suicides and threats going on.
Here goes….
Imagine us all agreeing on every single thing…
Linking only to people who share our views and our values and our opinions….
Reading page after page of people who think exactly like us…
Would that suck ass, or what? 🙂
I’d be bored to fucking tears in a half hour flat.
I redid my design section in MySQL. The really cool part of it is the ability to turn the “display” on and off. I have a ton of work-related sites I can’t quite SHOW right now.
(If you recall, I was damn near …[explanation has gone bye-bye. If you missed it, oh well. Some things are more important than your entertainment, chuckles…]) 
Aaaanyway… I got the “Redesign Bug” going on.
My new skin (Yes, the site is skinnable) is going to be a 1965 version of my site.
So… are there any good Retro sites you guys can recommend for inspiration? Any ideas? Trends? Wanna contribute clip art?
(My popup announcing something is a satire is a good example of what I’m gunning for here…)
We just bought “Shrek2” on DVD….
Can’t. stop. laughing!!!!
Infinitely better than the first. If you remember how cheezy they looked in the Robin Hood scene FROM the last movie, the details are astonishing in this one.
Is it me or does “Prince Charming” bear an uncanny resemblance to Nico?
The surprise bonus on the DVD is “Far Far Away Idol” (A spoof of American Idol, cuz nothing’s sacred with these guys…) featuring a 3D cameo by Simon. 🙂
Highly recommended. If you have a choice between paying a bill or buying the DVD… your creditors will understand. Trust me.
Dear Democratic Party:
OMG, you friggin’ people suck.
I came across this revelation as I walked Stroudsburg on my lunch hour, and I tripped over a wino.
You know what? I was convinced even HE could have beaten Bush in this election.
Americans all agree that Dubya is the kind of guy you’d want to have a beer with.
Well, guess what? My wino friend is already there, man!
Come up with all the conspiracy theories you want (Jewish touch screen voting machines by gay Halliburton martians, whatever…) Look, Bush won the election. He was winning Ohio when I went to bed at 3AM.
Now you are going to rack your brains out for the next four years going “where did we go wrong?”
Fact is, you fucking people don’t listen. You make the same mistakes over and over. You did it in 2000, you did it in 1988… you’re gonna do it again in 2008.
Erika: “Daddy said we’re only voting for people with a “K” in their names. ‘Kerry’, ‘Kelly’….”
Ashley: “What does the ‘W’ stand for, daddy.”
Me: “Uhhhh… ‘Walcer’, with a ‘C’… shut up!” 😉
Hooo-boy.
I was on line for a good 2 1/2 hours to vote.
I took my 11 year old, Erika in the booth with me. (Big Kelly Lewis fan, doncha know…).
You know what… I did my duty. I’m done.
I am so “Electioned out“, it ain’t funny.

Wow… October passing and nothing horrible happened to my family for the second year in a row. Friggin’ A!
If you don’t see anything different with this page… then I did my job! I made the switch FROM MT to WordPress last night…
….and OH HOW I LOVE IT AND ALL IT’S FLEXIBLE DATABASEY GOODNESS!
It must be permanent, as I have put up every single post I’ve ever made since April 1998. Ironically, my very first post was titled “WHUZZUP!” (In case you’re ever on Jeopardy and that’s the question.)
