You People Are Like Wrangling Ants

"It's Who You Know"
Maybe this will be helpful - maybe it won’t. Maybe it will just resonate with people who have received emails like this. I hope I don’t come off sounding like a jerk - I can’t control how you take this, but I’ll try to be compassionate in this blog.
I know that show business is hard to break in to. But I want anyone who isn’t in it - who wants in, to understand...

US WEAK-LY
Thanks to my Twitter pal @mesorandy for posting this.
You know, I am outraged that Elton and his partner have a kid - but only because Elton is 62 and should give his kid a chance in hell of actually having a living father around but he IS quite wealthy so at least his kid won’t be burdened with his elderly dad’s hospice bill once he gets out of college.
Anyway - Arkansas has ANOTHER...

These are the nuts that come out when innocent people die. They plan to protest the funerals of the kids killed in Arizona.
Honestly, must WE ALL get to have free speech? (Pithy question. Please, you don’t have to answer.)

Generality Two
Great post Snappy! Great story too. Inspiring.
I hope everyone is ready Snappy Kyle’s blogs. He’s a good dude with a conservative bent. We - I won’t even say disagree. We just have very clear ideas of our own.
Anyway - moving on thought I’d address something I saw on TV tonight re: the handouts that we’ve all been tricked into seeing SS and healthcare as: I just...

Generality
This is for my blog friend Snappy Kyle and other Republican friends of mine.
I do not generalize re: Republicans. Or I do but I’m generalizing about Boehner and those in lock step with his ideals.
The people that voted the new crop of R’s in to the house felt that they were doing so because they want America’s economy running again because Obama ruined it.
I do agree that...
In The First Day
GOP vows to undo what little of a healthcare plan we have (WITH NO PLAN OF THEIR OWN that isn’t just a giveaway to insurance companies)…they vow to roll state aid back to pre-stimulus levels cutting programs like EDUCATION, MEDICAID and TRANSPORTATION. They also vow to block environmental reform.
YOU voted for these people because you are fooled into thinking they are for your best...
Hypocrite Watch. Episode #1
WASHINGTON — Two House Republicans have cast votes as members of the 112th Congress, but were not sworn in on Wednesday, a violation of the Constitution on the same day that the GOP had the document read from the podium.
The Republicans, incumbent Pete Sessions of Texas and freshman Mike Fitzpatrick, missed the swearing in because they were at a fundraiser in the Capitol Visitors Center....
HEY DOUBTERS, I TOLD YOU! (re: John Edwards...
I FUCKING CALLED IT. I said when Elizabeth died a few weeks ago…how long until John Edwards proposes to Rielle? I thought it would take less than 2 months. I WAS RIGHT. Boo to all of you who said my comment was in poor taste. Blame the man in poor taste. Not the semi-intuitive messenger. (me)

They Don't Really Care About Us - Inmate Style →
Holy shit. Moved to tears on this one. This is way more epic than when these guys did “Thriller.” I know I’m a year late on finding this video. THAT many people dancing in exact time in slow motion…incredible!
Dancing will save all of our souls! (Except Natalie Portman’s soul - hers will be punished for her terrible ballet technique in Black Swan. Phooey.)
Be good...
Vampire News
I know you kids like that Twilight stuff so I thought I’d stay relevant and re-post some vampire news.
After retreating from the Washington fray after getting a new heart pump in July, former vice president Dick Cheney is resuming something of his normal routine: hunting, socializing, and headlining events for Republican politicians. His doctors say the new heart pump, which assists his...
Sherri Shepherd Engaged
My favorite line from the press release re: Sherri Shepherd’s engagement. “in the middle of a dish of Sherri’s favorite but forbidden M&M’s (she is diabetic), was a tiny little box,” the statement says. (Honey, although it appears I’m trying to kill you, I’m really asking you to spend the rest of your life with me. If you eat one of those candies,...
Thanks!
Hey - leading off this thanks is thanks to Snappy Kyle for the reblog of my meat post.
I wish had made more specific that I know not much of hunting and people who personally hunt to get their meat. My personal vegetarianism (worst album title) is to not participate in the meat industry - the fast food joints that deforest, the conditions the animals are in at slaughterhouses (not so much for...
Meatheads
Some of the comments in this article bum me out. I hate this macho attitude towards meat. And I hate this attitude that singers and other artists should shut up and not be political or socio-political. I’m sorry but most people I know who perform, it goes hand in hand with a deep compassion and need to serve. Especially people who earn so much - they want to give back. I don’t see...
