My theory would explain the banishment of Tamyra Gray (who I have never heard sing and ahve never seeen but for that cheezy Boston public road trip). Everyone says she is gifted and the class of the competition, but she didnt win. Am I totally off base here?

Nope. That's pretty much what I was trying to say. Now, that he has won, he can be who he is, instead of who the producers wanted him to be on the show.

I frequently use the Steve Carell "You just made me vomit in my own mouth" debate parry. It certainly makes for very short reply briefs.

Sorry, I just wanted to give RP a giggle and lighten up the mood...

I think you're using the wrong codes. (I have these e-mails I can forward to you if you really need them . . .)

I cannot think of a single friend of mine who had this problem. And this includes people who were or became priests, ministers, and state court prosecutors. People who live on the Peninsula, Less. For God's sake, who exactly are you hanging out with?

Yeah, what the fuck was that all about? One of any of these things could explain it.

- Either the jarhead contingent was out in force and/or Josh was still hanging in as the "patriotic vote".

- America went completely tone-deaf. (We have already established that as a group, they are stoopid).

- There are more country fans that I anticipated who watch the show.

- People felt sorry for him after every judge gave him a less than enthusiastic evaluation.

- It was a kneejerk reaction to the judges attempting to steer the competition towards a final three of Kim, Clay and Ruben, though that is what will happen in the end.

Conspiracy theory time. I fast forwarded through much of the hour of "programming," but I'm simply not willing to believe that Ruben was among the bottom 2 vote getters. I'm not sure that they actually ever said that Ruben and Trenyce were the bottom 2 vote getters. Maybe they put Ruben in that group so as to get another performance out of him (and stop Josh from singing again), and merely implied that he was among the bottom two vote getters?

It was in People. It may be on People.com but I am far too inept technologically to post the photo, sorry.:shrug:

I think she looks a lot better than XTina, whose hair and missing eyebrows are still gross. Perhaps a nice new handbag would be a good way to draw attention away from her new head.

Yes, I know some people just plain believe it. I once had a dear roommate tell me in all sincerity that she was very sad I was going to burn in hell for all eternity for being pro-choice and she would never see me again because she'd be in heaven for loving unborn babies.

I had a "friend" like that in HS, though the point I challenged was the more prosaic one that a jewish friend was going to burn in hell for not being baptist. My response, I recall, was that I was very sad that she was going to burn in hell for all eternity for denying God's love and forgiveness and denying the almighty nature of God by presuming to limit His capacity to forgive all sinners however great - not just the sinners who happened to share her particular sins, like pride, vanity and wrath.

To her credit, that did shut her up for about 2 years, after which she discovered sex.

The salt-and-pepper does look good on him. Alas, he is too short for me. A fact that is well hidden when he sits behind the desk. I'm sure his wife is pleased to know that she doesn't have any real threat from me.

But damn he is funny. He has the self-depricating humor down. Something that Bill Maher could stand to work on these days...

Has anyone heard or read about Norman Mailer's comments about the Gulf War II - to wit, that the whole point of this war was to boost the white male American ego, which has been taken down a few pegs in recent years in the workplace and the athletic fields.

Your penis is small because you are using the codes incorrectly.

To increase the size of your penis you need to put the size=4 inside the blocks as you have it, but then after your penis you need to put, inside the blocks, /size. This will tell it to stop growing and keep your penis from taking over the world.

Similarly, after you choose bold, you need to put /b to tell it to stop bolding. And /color to tell it to stop the color. All inside the brackets.

Edited to say, so to make your penis big, bold and red...are you sure you want your penis to be red, you need the following.

(I'll use () instead of brackets just replace them with [ and ] to make it work.

(size=4)(b)(COLOR=red)PENIS(/COLOR)(/b)(/size)

And it will look like this

PENIS

A fun article on nerve.com about a woman's experiences working in a NYC sex shop, including an interesting take on the cunt/debate. Here are some excerpts. Disclaimer: I dated this woman for about a year.

"The guy was looking for a video of people having sex with animals. I told him that because bestiality was illegal, he would have a hard time finding a store that would admit to stocking anything like that. I pointed out the shelf with the blow-up sheep. I heard myself say, "Perhaps I can interest you in one of our inflatable companions?" I knew I had been working there too long."

"TRUTH IN ADVERTISING: My favorite dirty-movie title of all time is Girls Who Suck Cock and Eat Cum"

"Female sexuality suffers from a dearth of non-humiliating slang. Men have access to some enormously satisfying vernacular when it comes to the care and feeding of their genitals. Words like "cock," "dick" and "rod" have a pithy weight all their own, magnified by the possessive. "Pussy," "cunt," "slit" and "snatch" share the same monosyllabic weight, but are usually paired with the objectifying "her" or "some" or "that." The rarest word associated with the vagina seems to be "my." "

To my recollection, none of the herbal remedies, surgeries, vitamin supplements, exorcisms, or other helpful suggestions that land in my Inbox have suggested this precise remedy. Thanks for the tip.
