Wow, I thought dancing was impressive, but this guy has a bird that's in a metal band!

Meet Hatebeak

I submit, the mugee may still be 'liberal' as before, but want more deterrants and punative measures (pole-mounted cameras, stricter sentencing, fewer paroles, harsher on repeat offenders, etc.)

True enough, and actually you're describing how I feel these days. But -

Some would say that make them 'conservative' on crime. I disagree. Tougher on crime, yes.

If it stopped right there, I'd say you were correct. But DM took it much farther. He went from this neo-hippie to a complete rewriting of his entire personality. Hosting Monday Night Football? Saying things like "George Bush has allowed us to respect the presidency again." To sum up how I feel about the guy, read The Millers Crossing.

Amen to him standing on this issue "immediately" after 9/11, you write it like it's a fault

Well, as the saying goes "Most things are ok in moderation". Too much of anything is probably bad for you. 9/11 for me? Well, I never really took being an American very seriously. And now I do. I display a flag in front of my house now. I take more of an interest in local voting issues. In short, I do my best to be an active American these days rather than a passive one. If being an American is important enough to some people to kill me for, then I better take it as seriously as they do.

But there is no way I'd let anyone scare me into changing who I am. Re-evaluation is ok, normal, healthy and good for you. But not when it comes from fear. Fearful people usually make bad decisions. Like poor Dennis.

No, not really. I was a fan of his comedy back-in-the-day. Then he became this scared little kid after 9/11. It took the punch out of the guy. I don't see that devil-may-care SNL guy anymore, and I can't respect anyone who just simply surrenders their balls like that. This guy sums it up way better than I can.

Besides, if I was going to pick someone on the right to bash for their opinions it wouldn't be him. Why pick such a low profile target when we have Ann Coulter for that?

Still not as bad as this guy:

Doesn't compare to the star-nosed mole, who strikes me as two notes cooler by the fact it overclocks its own brain:

"The pace of the star-nosed mole's feeding is so fast that it is approaching the maximum speed at which its nervous system can process information."

More revelations worthy of a New Yorker article just make me yawn. And, more evidence of my, um, correct opinion is corroborated here, in Black Table's "believe the hype?" review.

This stuff will never penetrate my Tin Foil Apartment!

Not work related, but this put these balloons and post its to shame.

This is the classiest joke I've ever seen. Cover everything in a friends apartment in aluminium foil. Everything. Individually.
