Well, you know, Women are from Mars and Men from Venus (or is it the other way around?)

There's a universal truth if I ever heard one...

Dont get all fucking midwesty preachy on ThrashersFan. I happen to think she sounds like a fabulous parent. She takes her kid out to sporting event,s makes sure he respects animals, doesnt waste her valuable time that could be spent getting to work faster so she could get home sooner for him and doesnt take him to places where adults are trying to have some fine dine and wine. And she if fucking hilarious. And some of those parenting books are fucking parenting books. I recall reading HERE that what to expect while you are expecting is pretty bad.

so keep your little one liners about her parenting abilities to herself unless you actually know her.

(I wont comment about her smacking her kid on the ass)

I'm going to write a parenting book. The first two lines are going to be: "The first step to having good kids is to make sure that you and your spouse are gifted (not in the retard sense, either), beautiful, kind and sensitive people. If this doesn't sound like you, please put down this book and don't procreate.

Presuming you mean LT. UHURA and not when James Tiberius Kirk kissed some Irish girl

Yup, that's it. Damn, that was a funny episode. Did he ever kiss an Irish girl? Every other species, sure, including green fur bikini wearing chick, but guess I didn't notice the Irish one.

Poll: what's your favorite StarTrek episode? Give enough description so people can figure out which one you mean.

Mine: The one with the orange skinned albinos with "My Favorite Martian" antennae who fed cabbage and brussle sprouts to a dragon-headed computer and who didn't know about "Love" until the crew got there.

Why? Because the whole cast was actively in pain speaking the lines, and it was pretty obvious that some of them (Chekov, in particular) were doing the bare minimum their contract required under active protest. Waves of anger about how stupid the episode was just radiated from the cast. Except Shatner, who said every wretched, horrible line like he meant it. What a pro.

By some odd coincidence, I just saw this news:

Shatner's ex-wife sues him over horse semen

And the folks who criticize Tiger for being aloof in his refusal to address race issues have shit for brains. Tiger's and Jordan's wise decision to simply eliminate race from the equation makes race a non-issue. Racist whites and race-card playing non-whites can only affect their negative goals if people address their firebrand comments.

I understand that the race issue can never really go away, but there has to be someone who says "It ain't relevant" at some point, otherwise the emphasis on racial differences, which is counterproductive, will persist.

Of course, I recognize that Tiger and MJ could only play this issue so coyly due to the luxury of their supremely elevated status. Most other folks are forced to deal with race. Nevertheless, TIger and MJ's lead is a refreshing start in the right direction.

First of all, I don't know who singles out race when it comes to criticism of either of these two athletes. I think the "I don't have an opinion on anything, ever, because it will affect my endorsements even though I make $60 mil a year on them" attitude is insane.

I would like people to have opinions. I would like people to take a stand on issues they believe in. I would prefer if they not turn themselves into eunuchs because of greed. I don't need to choose an issue for you, but jesus. We know you have an opinion on something.

And they need to understand that other athletes opened the door for them in ways they hardly even acknowledge (I will admit Tiger is a student of the game who acknowledges and appreciates contributions by black golfers such as Lee Elder). Arthur Ashe, Jim Brown, Jackie Robinson, Muhammed Ali. All larger than life. All contributed something more to our society than championships. Sitting on top of a pile of money was made possible by people who fought for themselves and you. Fought for access. It's extraordinarily selfish to get there and then ignore others.

As far as race only being an issue if you respond to racists, that's naive and short-sighted. You need to be proactive, especially when you hold a position of authority. We aren't so far removed from the 60s that the lessons of Martin Luther King (proactive), Malcolm X (proactive) and countless others, that we should just sit back and lead only by example. I disagree with your approach.

I'm behind, but I hope somebody caught this and responded with at least an "I bet you could."

Oh god. I hoped never to see the words "Shatner" and "semen" in the same sentence.

I'm also distraught that the Buttafuco's are divorcing. I never saw that coming.

:rofl: :rofl:

Just when you thought is was safe to go to the mall:


WACKO JACKO SHOPS AS A MONKEY
Michael Jackson went out shopping in a Florida shopping center -- dressed as a monkey. Jacko surprised fellow shoppers when he appeared in the mall wearing a chimp mask.

One says, "He looked like an extra from 'The Planet of the Apes.' In fact, he looked just like Zira in the original flick.

"He acted as though it was perfectly normal to go out shopping looking like a chimpanzee.

Jacko is rumored to have had four chimps in the past, all called Bubbles.

The use of "nay" must be stopped!

I mean, it's one thing in Parliament or on NPR, but twice on the Fashion Board in one day is on a whole different plane.

Speaking of things that must be stopped, I have grown incredibly weary of the "witty"-parenthetical-inside-my-initials-sign-off.

Please cease and desist.
