Unless you are Tiger Woods whose love is out in Sweeden and whose Angst has signed up to do an expose of his poor skills in the Inquirer.Tiger needs a Requiem Mass played.

Thank God for Lady Gaga!

vbspurs said...

I'll remember the "Noughts" musically as an attempt to beat back the hip-hop trend, and for that, and for Keane and the Arctic Monkeys, I'll be ever eternally grateful.

Matt Eckert said...

And Adam Lambert.

Nothing says love like rubbing your business in some random dudes face.

wv:prickke, seriously who writes these things.

vbspurs said...

your business

Your junk, Matt, your junk. Please use the appropriately hilarious American euphemism for male genitalia.

Matt Eckert said...

Plus who is more of a romantic than Chris Brown.

He can really sell a love song.

One man's junk is another man's pleasure.

(Right, Titus?)

Matt Eckert said...

Miley and Taylor Swift do sing great love songs but you can get arrested if you have their photos on your computer.

Whats up with that.

Ron said...

I would be happy to sing auto tuned Christmas carols with Victoria, all junk properly stored!

Matt Eckert said...

Somehow Ron I do not think Victoria wants your junk in her trunk.

vbspurs said...

It would be an honour. For a small, non-refundable fee paid in Euros, naturally.

wv: covent. Where unmarried women go to if they strike out picking up fellow bloggers.

Ron said...

Fees? Vic, to the quick, you hurt me! We could be the Shane McGowan/Kristy McCall of the TwentyTeens!

Ron said...

The post was very well written -- who knows, JAC may wind up being the 'Althouse' of the TwentyTeens!

Titus said...

I am all about Love now.

My British/Indian husband and I are really hot together.

We have hot sex.

He is hot.

He has an amazing body.

When he gets down to his underwear I am ready to chizz. You should see it fellow republicans.

Titus said...

Fellow republicans and lovers of the
Bush Doctrine do you want to see my husband in his underwear?

I will paste a picture on this site if you want.

Let's take a vote.

Who is the commenter here who frequently argues for an unshaved, untrimmed, fragrant female bush?

I forget who--would hate to guess and offend someone.

I thought that was the Bush Doctrine.

Matt Eckert said...

That would be the Bushman of the Kohlrabi.

Beta Conservative said...

Three quick things:

1. Titus, post whatever you want, pix, thoughts, jokes, whatever. I always enjoy your contributions.

2. I have never posted a comment re: female bush, but I must say now that the topic is upon us, they are, per Liz's description, God's most perfect creation.

3. My son in law wants a digital pic frame for Christmas, and I see they range in price from 40 or 50 bucks to hundreds. Any thoughts from those who may already be using them?

Snow is in .. Althouse is out.

I'm happy for her, but arrgh, there's so much to talk about regarding the ridiculous Health Care bill. The latest -- ARE YOU SITTING DOWN?

Rep. Stupak is working with the GOP to kill the Bill!

LOL. Text book definition of "politics make strange bedfellows". Told y'all we won't know what will really happen this Christmas Eve.

Cheers,
Victoria

OMFG.

It's the greatest fraud in the history of man, and it's a tragedy that it's scientists doing it.

Who stole the "Arbeit macht frei" sign?

The Pink Panther Theme Song

All told, Connolley created or rewrote 5,428 unique Wikipedia articles. His control over Wikipedia was greater still, however, through the role he obtained at Wikipedia as a website administrator, which allowed him to act with virtual impunity. When Connolley didn't like the subject of a certain article, he removed it -- more than 500 articles of various descriptions disappeared at his hand. When he disapproved of the arguments that others were making, he often had them barred -- over 2,000 Wikipedia contributors who ran afoul of him found themselves blocked from making further contributions. Acolytes whose writing conformed to Connolley's global warming views, in contrast, were rewarded with Wikipedia's blessings. In these ways, Connolley turned Wikipedia into the missionary wing of the global warming movement.

Holy cow! I know this alone doesn't prove a 'conspiracy' but if more of these dots keep getting connected we may have in our hands the biggest con job in the history of man right under the noses of the MSM.

Alex said...

I can't figure out if Lady Gaga is angst or love. It's definitely very crotch-y.

"Holy cow! I know this alone doesn't prove a 'conspiracy'"

What do you call it when it accomplishes all the same goals as a conspiracy and actually acts just like one, but the conspirators never actually sit down together and conspire? Of course, many did, but not all or even most.

As I've said before, I think Climate gate is the biggest story of my lifetime. Potentially very damaging on a global scale and even more fascinating is that the fraud seems to have taken in the entire planet's intelligentsia and leadership, and consequently many others. It's unprecedented and clearly shows the danger of believing intelligence or education equals wisdom. Look back in history at some of mankinds greatest minds and realize how little they knew about the world compared to you today, yet the wisdom was found regardless.

I'm not anti-education (I've certainly spent my share of time and money on it), but wisdom should be the goal. Skepticism should be present in every corner of study. OK, I'll just take the Times Tables on faith, but nothing else.

Wv: "press", how appropriate.

vbspurs said...

Dude, what are Althouse and Meade doing for two days!

Well, I'm off to watch Avatar, in a wonderfully chilly matinée Sunday. Hope you guys are enjoying yourselves and keeping warm!

Cheers,
Victoria

Lem, it certainly proves collusion to silence and intimidate others, plus erasing the "inconvenient truth" whenever found (as well as insinuating themselves in positions of power, so to do).

I'm sorry, but this is huge. What on earth could prevent journalists from investigating this matter fully?

Cheers,
Victoria

Well said, Bagoh.

It points out the complete impotency of the newer human evolutions of technology and science when confronted with the older ones of herd panic and quick acceptance of the worse of possible explanation for environmental observations. We are still sheep with slightly new software layered over an old survival focused operating system.
