Internet Strangers Have Let Me Down Again
jeffmiller:
You internet strangers have let me down again. I’m talking about the ones posted to babycenter.com and other parenting websites, suggesting that Dumbo would be a good movie for a toddler. These are things that happen in Dumbo:
A baby elephant is teased because he has big ears.
His mommy spanks a mean man who teases him.
The mommy is whipped, shackled, and placed in solitary...
So far, the details surround Houstin’s death are unclear.

If you use the word cave, you deserve all of the horrible things the GOP will do to you when they run the country.
Well, the GOP seems to have no idea about how Catholics think, act or vote. They better not put all the eggs in the stopping the eggs basket.

Holy Christ! Old white guys be saying jimmy hats are okay, but cooter pills are sin.
Anyone who thinks that Catholics are going to change their vote based on a political decision about birth control has never been a Catholic. No one (or almost no one) will change their vote because of this.

That being said, we should have let The Darkness fail.
Nope, sorry, “Libertarians” and “Conservatives”. Mitt Romney was unspeakably wrong in saying that Detroit Auto should go bankrupt. He was wrong because it wouldn’t have worked. He’s wrong because not letting it bankrupt worked so unbelievably well and he’s wrong because the cold, mechanical, robotic, inhumane idea that numbers matter and people don’t...

Actually, I be it wouldn’t so bad to live anywhere anymore, with the internet and better cable. But before that, life was bleak. I’d move back there, but I’ve lived in a lot of places and I’m old and just stay in most nights anyway.

This WP article made it seem like no one receives lifetime insurance. I don’t think they cover anyone for life:
According to the NFL Players Association, full lifetime medical insurance was not sought by current and former union leadership because such a plan would cost an estimated $50…

I don’t care. I don’t care. It still sucks so hard there.
Pretty soon, NPR will be a continuous loop of documentaries about clinking plates at local diners, with the faint, annoying echoes of news reports and documentaries in the background.

“They understood what the consequences were. They agreed to the consequences… [A]n agreement was reached. It must be honored.” — Nancy Pelosi
The GOP has_ just _****declared that it is completely untrustworthy, that there is no point in making any deals with them because they will simply go back on their word. Republicans have no honor and no integrity.
Just?
Big News
Hired a whole staff to write about my Tumblr blog. It’s pronounced yogging. They will write about my blog and all of the fun social times my blog will have with itself. Also, clean my house. They won’t get paid but the chance to network is horrendous.
"I am very concerned about the Moor"
Iago Romney
So, I was pretty sure that every tenet of the GOP’s philosophy held that they didn’t care for the very poor. They just shouldn’t say it. It’s like when people freak out if a player guarantees a win over another team. As if they expect to lose.

I’m pretty sure that if they remade “Dream a Little Dream” with Corey Haim’s corpse, it would be less depressing and redolent of mortality than the Ferris Bueller atrocity.
Sometimes, I worry that robot boxers will the only boxers we have left.
