We could treat them like I do my kids....tell them to go in the other room and duke it out and don't bother me unless there's blood. At that point, they usually start laughing, or look at me in total shock and the argument is over.
~oy vey.
Should've let it go at "conservative burbs," kiddo.
...while you were *miles* ahead. {g}
"I decided to include this section due to the large number of usenet postings I have read concerning "the pompitous of love." Steve first used this phrase in the song Enter Maurice from his 1972 album Recall the Beginning...A Journey From Eden. This is also the song marking Steve embracing the persona Maurice. The spelling of pompitous is correct according to the lyric sheet from the album, but you will never find it in a dictionary since the word is made-up anyway!! The producers of the recent Jon Cryer release, "The Pompatus of Love" took their spelling of the word from the sheet music for The Joker as printed in the songbook "Rock Hits Through the Years" published by Warner Chappell. Many die-hard SMB fans would argue for the spelling as POMPITOUS as this is the first and only spelling in print on a Steve Miller Band release.
""The pompitous of love" originates from a line in The Medallions' 1954 R&B hit The Letter. Miller was a fan of 50's R&B, so he's very familiar with that tune. On first hearing that particular track, it would appear that the line is:
Let me whisper sweet words of pismotality and discuss the pompitous of love
Vernon Green, the author of The Letter, says, "You have to remember, I was a very lonely guy at the time. I was only fourteen years old, I had just run away from home, and I walked with crutches." The uneducated but imaginative youth was prone to fantasy, so he just made up the lyrics. 'Pismotality' described words of such secrecy that they could only be spoken to the one you loved. "And it's not pompitous," he emphasizes. "What I said was 'puppetuse', which is a term I coined to mean a secret paper doll fantasy figure."
"Steve either misheard this lyric, or drew upon this song to develop his own word. Either way, 'pompitous' has made its mark in pop music history. Interestingly, Steve appears to also have drawn upon the word 'pismotality' to create the word 'epismetology' which he also used in the song Enter Maurice. Of course, everyone knows Maurice and his speaking of "the pompitous of love" from Steve's 1973 hit The Joker. Unlike Recall the Beginning, this album did not have a lyric sheet, so one must refer to the previous album for spelling. "
"I read an interview with Steve where he was asked what pompitous meant. He said, "It doesn't mean anything. It's jive talk." Steve uses this phrase once again in Conversation from his 1993 album Wide River. This song also features Steve's second use of the word epismetology in a SMB tune. "
HOO'd a thunk it?!

I am not so sure about ea. state printing their own currency though.
A state would have to secede from the Union to do that.
Sultan...Could you just grab him by the scruff of the neck, pull him foward...and slap 'em upside the head!!? (LOL)
And here I thought you were outta town all the time.
and Jake's B-day is Saturday day and me and the Missuz are going to a wedding Saturday night, but I'd be honored to WHUP yer whiteboy arse in HOOps sometime Sunday......gimme a call, unless yer scair't!!
Well, your rambunctious 'n full o'energy son will certainly take the wind outta your sails.
I'm projecting here, but I see you embarrassing your much-too-attractive-for-you, and sweet wife at the wedding.
Why?
Oh, I don't know. But something...anything will tick you off.
The groom's cousins, twice removed, from [any state, any town], may remind you of Clinton, or Terry Mac, and you'll read them the riot act (~slurred version~ of course).
Or maybe, in your usual drunken daze, you imagine that the figurines on top of the wedding cake are really Bill & Hillary and they're planning on forcing the Newly-weddded to sign their first-born onto a policy from the It Takes A Village HMO.
...or, ya could very well just be yourself...Mud.
BTW...Impress the wife ( for once in 10 yrs)...wear something other than than blue-striped Freeper shirt
Sometimes, less said the better. (Thanks, Mud)
Really???...why??? LOL!
My thought Dude looks like he is DEAD
Nope! I have plenty of books though. And not the kind that I was completely dumbdowned with in college.
Excellent point, jla!!!
However, as I understand it, the unionization of the states began right after the first civil war of 1812. The Southern States did not want to be unified with the Northern states but were forced to do so. This force was done, for economic purposes, to establish a federal contract with each states. Ever since this federal contract was established, it sabotaged the true sovereignty of states forever. Each State is now recognized as a commercial entity with reference to the Uniform Commercial Codes.
As a commercial entity, states are recognized as United States of America rather than "united states of america". The difference is in the capitalization of "united" , and "states". In capital form, the "State" is recognized as a nom de guerre, (a misnomer improperly joined or named), which becomes the strong man for the federal government. Look at your drivers license, and notice that your name, as spelled in all capital letters, is recognized as a "name of war", a nom de guerre, and a corporation when you challenge a ticket in municipal court. The key to recognizing this is the yellow fringe on the flag, a commander in chief flag, which symbolizes an army on the march.
