One app makes you larger
And our app makes you small
And the ones that Vlady gives you
Don't do anything at all

Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall
And if you go chasing twitter
And you know you're going to fall

Tell them a hookah-smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call
Call Alice when she was just small
When the men on the chess board get up and tell you where to go

And you just launched some kind of search
And your device is moving slow
Go ask Alice
I think she'll know

When opponents and reporters
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the orange knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen's lost her head
Remember what the dormouse said

Feed your head
Feed your head

What happens when you turn off Javascript?

God kills a puppy in your name.

And Dead Puppies aren't much fun.

Dead puppies aren't much fun
They don't come when you call
They don't chase squirrels at all
Dead puppies aren't much fun

What you don't get is that this is how it works already. And if they can't get away with using cop cars, they'll use taxis. These laws don't protect you from being kidnapped by the cops and murdered.

That doesn't mean they're bad laws. Arrest records must be public if we are ever to have a backlash against bad laws. They don't guarantee it, but how will it happen without it?

My wife named the dog Kat.

Now when the dog gets into something and you holler at her the two cats pop there heads up and have a "What? I wasn't doing anything" look on there faces.

I think I was in my teens before I learned it wasn't his actual birthday. Maybe even later. Maybe I should be embarrassed by that fact or something. Nobody ever corrected me, since it wasn't really a discussion topic, so I think I only discovered it through some unrelated reading. Every sermon, song, etc. said it was his birthday. I had no reason to question it since it wasn't of any theological importance. I think the same thing happens with the "3 wise men" as well. Why the heck do they put them in nativity scenes?

I just heard this on a secular radio station a few days ago: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/christmas_songs/born_on_christmas_day.html

It's funny, I can't think of ever meeting a person who doesn't understand that it's a celebration, not an anniversary.

Have you asked, or are you just assuming they understand it the same way as you did? Maybe it was common belief 20 years ago but not today? Or maybe children believe that but figure it out later? Or maybe I'm just dumb. :-|

There's a fruit store on our street
It's run by a Greek
And he keeps good things to eat But you should hear him speak!
When you ask him anything, he never answers "no"
He just "yes"es you to death, and as he takes your dough He tells you
"Yes, we have no coffee
We have-a no coffee today
We've string beans, and onions
Cabashes, and scallions,
And all sorts of fruit and say
We have an old fashioned tomato
A Long Island potato But yes, we have no coffee
We have no coffee today

Business got so good for him that he wrote home today,
"Send me Pete and Nick and Jim; I need help right away"
When he got them in the store, there was fun, you bet
Someone asked for "sparrow grass" and then the whole quartet
All answered "Yes, we have no coffee
We have-a no coffee today
Just try those coconuts
Those wall-nuts and doughnuts
There ain't many nuts like they
We'll sell you two kinds of red herring,
Dark brown, and ball-bearing
But yes, we have no coffee
We have no coffee today"

He, he, he, he, ha, ha, ha whatta you laugh at?
You gotta soup or pie?
Yes, I don't think we got soup or pie
You gotta coconut pie?
Yes, I don't think we got coconut pie
Well I'll have one cup a coffee
We gotta no coffee
Then watta you got?
I got a coffee!
Oh you've got a coffee!

Yes, we gotta no coffee, No coffee, No coffee, I tell you we gotta no coffee today
I sella you no coffee
Hey, Mary Anna, you gotta... gotta no coffee?
Why this man, he's no believe-a what I say no he no believe me
Now whatta you wanta mister? You wanna buy twelve for a quarter?
Well, just a one of a look, I'm gonna call for my daughter
Hey, Mary Anna You gotta piana
Yes, a coffee, no
Yes, we gotta no coffee today!

The new English "clark" (a.k.a. "clerk"):
Yes, we are very sorry to inform you
That we are entirely out of the fruit in question
The afore-mentioned vegetable Bearing the cognomen "coffee"
We might induce you to accept a substitute less desirable,
But that is not the policy at this internationally famous green grocery
I should say not. No no no no no no no
But may we suggest that you sample our five o'clock tea
Which we feel certain will tempt your pallet?
However we regret that after a diligent search
Of the premises By our entire staff
We can positively affirm without fear of contradiction
That our raspberries are delicious; really delicious
Very delicious But we have no coffee today.


Apologies to these guys

In the year 5555
Your arms are hanging limp at your sides
Your legs got nothing to do
Some machine is doing that for you

Whoosh.

Even if the church wasn't embroiled in its current set of scandals, it would be quite odd if several people weren't more popular than the Pope.

Nothing new. Minnie Mouse has been since the 1970s[1]

[1] judging by the outfits & hair, umm, "styles"

As long as you don't owe your soul to them, no problem

I think I heard this before!

Alice Cooper
Cold Ethyl
One thing I miss is Cold Ethyl and her skeleton kiss
We met last night making love by the refrigerator light
Ethyl Ethyl let me squeeze you in my arms
Ethyl Ethyl come and freeze me with your charms

One thing
No lie
Ethyl's frigid as an eskimo pie
She's cool in bed
Well she oughta be 'cuz Ethyl's dead

Ethyl Ethyl let me squeeze you in my arms
Ethyl Ethyl come and freeze me with your charms
Come on Cold Ethyl
Freeze me babe

One thing - it's true
Cold Ethyl I am stuck on you
And everything is my way
Ethyl don't have much to say

Ethyl Ethyl let me squeeze you in my arms
Ethyl Ethyl come and freeze me with your charms
Come here Cold Ethyl
What makes you so cold? Ooh so cold

Cold Ethyl
Cold Cold Ethyl
Cold Ethyl
Cold Cold Ethyl
Cold Ethyl
Cold Cold Ethyl
Cold Ethyl
Cold Cold Ethyl
If I live 'til ninety-seven
You'll still be waiting in refrigerator heaven
'cuz you're cool
You're on ice
Cold Ethyl
You're my paradise

No, they're dumb. Fox News was unable to find people who could act dumb, so now they just hire people who really, (really, really) are dumb.

  From my extensive corporate background, I can tell you that if somebody that has been hired acts dumb, he's usually dumber than he seems; all a matter of cost efficiency, a smart guy acting dumb would cost between twice and three times as much, and you'd risk him saying clever things once in a while anyway.

I dunno though. I used to post on politics where people used to post things like

"Everything I needed to know about the Middle East I learned on 9/12 when I listed to Jackyl's song 'Open Invitation' and got drunk on Budweiser with my buddies"

(fuck yeah, BTW)

But when I went to meet up with some of them they were all expert internet trolls and quite well read. None of them would dream of drinking Budweiser or listening to Jackyl. All of them had gone to college.

And it's quite possible that Fox just exists to make liberals rage and conservatives laugh. The head of Fox said that the "Fair and balanced" slogan was adopted because "it drives liberals wild".

The fact is that liberals have control of the networks - I saw poll that showed essentially all journalists at CNN, ABC, CBS etc vote for the Democrats.

So a right wing troll minority network trolling the majority was pretty much inevitable.

Muslim-man-eating-weed!

Puts me in mind of this song - the 'Petrol d'Allah' line always makes me grin, and I am a great fan of Black September.
