Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here is my example with WFTD.

We need to stop celebrating awful people and start shunning them. And if giant corporations insist on hiring these pinheads, then we should shun the companies. America is becoming a giant sideshow where degenerates are in demand. What's next, a reality program featuring Michael Skakel?

Way back in the beginning, President George Washington nailed it. He said this: "Associate yourself with men of quality if you esteem your reputation, for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company."

Words to live by. And I am sending that quote to Pepsi-Cola. Perhaps they'll pass it along to the new Pepsi generation.

Multi-cultural and a diverse society are the watchwords
No originality or thought, our children are in herds
Companies are learning that rewarding the dirt
Leads ineluctably to emails, their image they've hurt
Ludacris don't complain, you've been rejected, not censored!

This isn't a matter of censorship, or denying a person their right to publicly make an ass of themselves. This is an example of the power of consumers to change the wrong headedness of big companies, and do it in a vocal, legal, and legitimate manner. Why Pepsi chose to go with such a creature as Ludacris, no one but the marketing guys will ever know, but beyond that, O'Rielly, in this instance is correct. Americans are rewarding bad behavior, and paying an unbelievable sum of money to these morally, spiritually, ethically corrupt individuals. I don't care what these people do, or whom they do it do… providing that everyone is of age and it is consensual, but for pity's sake, don't reward and honor them for their antics. These people aren't heroes, they shouldn't be held up as roll models for our children.

And before someone gets on their high horse and accuses me of being a statist, I don't care that some fool makes money on behaving like an idiot, or that some tramp married an old man and got millions, or that some sports person managed to finagle a deal, when he should be finagling an appeal... they deserve what they can convince other idiots to pay them. Part of that, is that if we, as normal citizens can convince the sponsors that they are going to lose money if they continue to use such individuals, and the sponsors believe it and release these creatures, then really there is no one to blame but the individual who behaved in such a manner to begin with. Actions have consequences, and everyone should be aware of that particular little rule. /mini-rant.

Whenever I feel like IT.

Every day we shove and push
To be the first on the short bus
Xsmommy, hobbes and dubs
Wetbars, closets and beer tubs
If you really think you’re strong
Maybe you can ride along
I don’t want to cause no fuss
But here it is – the new Short Bus!

Short bus, short BUS
Short bus, short BUS

Bet you things don’t get too far
Before camle’s got a new cigar
Argh is running for his life
From ending up with the ex-wife
Gabz is getting far from fat
Swimming round in the beer vat
There’se no rules, and there’s no muss
Ridin’ on this here Short Bus

Short bus, short BUS
Short bus, short BUS


Singing:

WotsamoddaU hey,
Gotta no respect, whatta you think you do,
Why you looka so sad?
It's-a not so bad, it's-a nice-a place,
Ah, Shaddap You Face.


Well, I don’t know why I came here today
I got the feeling that things ain’t goin my way.
I’m so scared in case I fall up the stairs
And that noise th only thing I can hear
Hobbes to the left of me, XS to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the closet with you.

Yes, I’m stuck in thecloset with you,
And I’m wondering what it is I should do.
It’s so hard to setup Argh with my ex,
like some people only are about sex.
Hobbes to the left of me, XS to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the closet with you.

Well, you started off with learning,
And you find yer stomach’s turnin’ man.
And your friends they all come crawlin’,
Swim in the beer vat and say, “Please, please.”

Trying to make martini’s for all,
But I can see nobody’s drinkin at all.
Is it cool to go to chomp on a big cigar?.
Poor Gus is out polishing the car
Hobbes to the left of me, XS to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the closet with you.

Well, you started off with learning,
And you find yer stomach’s turnin’ man.
And your friends they all come crawlin’,
Swim in the beer vat and say, “Please, please.”

Well, I don’t know why I came here today
I got the feeling that things ain’t goin my way.
I’m so scared in case I fall off the stairs
And that noise th only thing I can hear
Hobbes to the left of me, XS to the right,
Here I am, stuck in the closet with you.

Yes I’m, stuck in the closet with you,
Stuck in the closet with you,
Here I am, stuck in the closet with you.

On a clear night you can see 1.5*10^9 light years.

Once we finish with Saddam and Osama, a confrontation with North Korea seems ineluctable.

Negotiator Says N. Korea Well-Armed

[RikaStrom]

Sorry Miss Slippy.... I got side-tracked by ranting... (sheepish grin)

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

With George W. Bush looking like a shoo-in in 2004, the dems will probably offer the country the ineluctable, unelectable AlGore once again.

[hobbes1]

Geez, usually the woman says that to Stanley.

[doubled]

Coulter's view of a liberal
Is they are ineluctable.
Under every rock
You find them in stock
Should they be executable?

This almost sounds like a spoonerism as in:

Gal Ore was ineluctable for the presidency of the United States.

The flu has finally flown from the body. I'm up and trading away!
