Even if it's not true, the aliens will just go back in time, change history and make it true. That's how true it is.

Thanks. I'll keep it with the others. My first thought was to go with Ferdinand Mobius, but I figured, too obscure.

Sure, why not.

MItch McConnell needs to show his birth certificate. He was not born in this country. He was born in the Land of the Lost. We don't need him here pushing his secret Sleestak agenda.

You're so right. It diminishes the accomplishments of the real starrs, like myself.

How is his life not gonna be messed up? "My mother is my sister?" "My dad is my grandfather?" You gotta be M.C. Escher to even draw that family tree.

Yeah, that's what she wants

Wow, the human refuse. Man, it hurt to read that. The poor kid, sweet christ!

About last century

Still a yes for me too.

On vinyl, Tame Impala - Lonerism Big

Well, of course the winner does get a free VIP membership to TSW (value $1.75). This includes a lifetime supply of having your spelling & grammatical errors corrected for you. And two all-expense-paid tickets to PPP, where you and your guest will enjoy a tour of the wild exotic creatures native to this strange and wonderful land unspoiled by civilization. Also, you get to call Tom an idiot.

Exactly

Thanks. Dick.

I think you will agree that our founding fathers did not have in mind “professional” politicians for this representative democracy of ours. (see also Lincoln’s “of the people, by the people, for the people...”) I don’t think it’s that big of a deal that celebrities run for office. There have been many examples already. I won’t make a case for Ashley Judd because I don’t know much about her. But if a famous person can catch a wave and get the votes, they get to go to DC. That’s the system working. The issues belong to all of us. Just because some suit came up through the ranks and ingratiated himself sufficiently to his party’s grand poobahs... that no more qualifies a person to represent his state or district in Washington than any other concerned citizen. This idea that career politicians hold some expertise or privelaged status with regard to the laws of the land is nuts.

You misspelled "you're," you !@#$ing idiot.

Like Ronald Reagan

It would easily break the record for largest margin of physical attractiveness between two candidates. Of course second place would be McConnell vs. everybody else he's ever run against.

Why did they ask Fred Smerlas for marital advice?

I agree. He does need to make some spending cut proposals. I think he will--I don't understand what the hell is taking him so long. The Republicans have a valid gripe here.

I think maybe you have some displaced aggression. Is there anything I could post that you wouldn't object to? Is there any topic that you can't twist into a complaint connected to the federal budget?

I thought it was funny. It’s hard to tell with Tarantino if he’s high or whatever. He’s just a kook to begin with. Say what you will about him though, the movie business is better for having him around. He’s in it for the right reasons. He absolutely LOVES cinema, everything about it. He brings that love and tons of inventive ideas to his stuff. Sometimes it seems a little forced (to me anyway), but when it works, it’s pretty damn cool. I still remember the day I saw Pulp Fiction in the theatre when it first came out. I was blown away. I remember the feeling I had coming out of the theatre. I had this buzz of excitement that lasted for days.

I think Jackie Brown has aged very well. If you haven't seen it in a while, it's great to revisit.

Actually, there is a correct answer and it's not controversial as long as you're not a member of a political party and trying to maintain the support of the lunatics who have hijacked it... 4.54 billion years. (That's the age of the Earth, not of the universe as Rubio somehow strangely misinterpreted the question).

He was not in fact talking about recorded history. He was talking about the age of the Earth itself. And in Rubio's defense, he never actually said he believed the Earth to be less than 10,000 years old. He simply said that it's a "great mystery" and that different perspectives (biblical and otherwise) should be considered. [EDIT] Rubio's actual words: “I’m not a scientist, man. I can tell you what recorded history says, I can tell you what the Bible says, but I think that’s a dispute amongst theologians and I think it has nothing to do with the gross domestic product or economic growth of the United States. I think the age of the universe has zero to do with how our economy is going to grow. I’m not a scientist. I don’t think I’m qualified to answer a question like that. “At the end of the day, I think there are multiple theories out there on how the universe was created and I think this is a country where people should have the opportunity to teach them all. I think parents should be able to teach their kids what their faith says, what science says. Whether the Earth was created in 7 days, or 7 actual eras, I’m not sure we’ll ever be able to answer that. It’s one of the great mysteries.” Link
