Worth a read? [No, but certainly worth a zot]
The Personal Gratification Digest ^ | 9/15/2011 | SamtheSham74

Oh, this guy is funny. And he pretty much nails it.

"Taken to a logical extreme, this sort of political pageantry ratchets up the degree of difficulty for a quality candidate with strong ideas and sound principles, especially if the candidate in question looks like an aging college professor (Representative Ron Paul) or a guy who cuts his own hair (former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson).

As 2012 approaches like the T-Rex chasing the Jeep in “Jurassic Park,” we are welcomed to the aforementioned logical extreme. For those who think I’m overstating the case, say hello to the current field of Republican candidates and the two men leading the way: Governor Rick Perry of Texas and former Governor Romney. The very idea that the GOP is seriously considering these two men for the post of Leader of the Free(ish) World is testament to the barely subcutaneous levels to which most voters are ostensibly willing to venture in search of a true statesman."

We need more of this.

Um... you might want to rethink that. Oh, and the 'sham' screen name.

That makes him a pile of guts and ashes.

Oh, you mean before the zot? Yeah, I guess that they’re all
FRetreads. Nice coinage, Civilizations.

We’re all gearing up for it. We’re expecting a lot of ozone, lightning, and crispy Viking Kitty chow. Fourteen months of pure hassle. Sigh...

You and Darkwing104 must have jobs because you seem to be otherwise engaged these days.

I miss you guys a lot, for I really enjoy your graphics and your humor.

If I had a nickel for every time I goofed up while correcting someone, my little piggy bank would be filled to bursting, LOL!

It’s so bad that I almost never do it anymore, but I just couldn’t resist this time.
