  1. Well, I do have a tendency to hemorrhage words. And Dave....touche, sir.
  2. Eventhough etymologically it makes no sense.
  3. That sentence doesn't make sense. I think you need to edit it.
  4. For chrissake, it's PRINCE. Has he ever done anything in his life that wasn't sexual? That dude could make doing his taxes a sexual experience. Were people actually surprised by this?
  5. PLEASE! Won't SOMEBODY think of the astronauts!
  6. What do you get when you cross a polar bear with a seal? A polar bear.
  7. I apologize if it wasn't clear in my original post, but the quotes weren't taken from the book, they were taken from an interview she did with Stephen Colbert last night. The interview only lasted a couple of minutes, and those two quotes pretty much represent the tone of the interview, though I could quote the entire transcript if anyone feels it necessary. The mention of her book was done for the same reason it was during the interview, to give some sort of context for who this person is, not necessarily to imply that everything she says in the interview comes straight out of the book. I thought that would be more obvious. Edited to clarify: This thread was not meant to be a review of her book, it was meant to be a review of her comments during the interview.
  8. The review of the book is interesting, but it doesn't explain her remarks that I quoted earlier. Nowhere in that review does it draw such a stark political definition of who is and is not black, nor does it cast such a blatant aspersion on white people's motivations for embracing someone like Barack Obama.
  9. Ah ha! So by "trash" you actually meant "recyclables." Which, of course, you did *ahem* recycle, right?
  10. Bags of clothes and shoes are one thing, but three bags of trash? Yikes.
  11. Everyone is out to make a buck. Hooray for capitalism!
  12. According to Debra Dickerson, author of The End Of Blackness, in her comments on The Colbert Report "black" is defined as "the descendant of west African slaves brought here to labor in the United States," and that because Barack Obama's father immigrated here from Kenya he is "African African-American" and not "black." She also said that embracing a black person who is not actually a black person is "white self congratulation." Thoughts?

  15. Seeing the connection between all human beings comes part and parcel with the understanding that death is a natural part of the life cycle. I choose to believe that death is no more a tragedy than birth is a miracle. Because of that I also refuse to think any differently of a person simply because they died. I laughed at her then, I still laugh at her now (once again with the caveat that the baby is a different story altogether). That said, I respect the fact that everyone has a right to their own beliefs, and I appreciate that differing beliefs are what makes the world an interesting place. I don't pity anyone else for their beliefs any more than I glorify them.
  16. If by "whatever Texans do" you mean "skydive in the winter" then yes, I'll be doing that shortly.
  17. Ironically, British dentistry is British comedy in its highest form.
  18. Oh yeah, I forgot to add that I'll be seeing this movie as well.
  19. Dude, you're such a country whore. "I hate England, I love England, British comedy owns, English people suck, I love grey clouds, I hate the queen." Make up your damn mind ya limey barstard!
  20. How sure can you be that her parenting skills were the cause of her 20 year old son's death? Or do you have some information that the general public doesn't have?
