Only thing missing is the number to call/text and vote some off each week.

They always have to have at least one token gay guy in these shows. I wonder who will be the troublemaker of the group.

Come on, you know who it will be...be Frank with us.

Still waiting on the Congress version of Jersey Shore. So many excellent candidates to get punched Snooki-style.

OK, I was going for the Barney Frank/boobs connection, but yours is better. Now do Waxman, if you think you're so smart.

Henry "Mongoloid" Waxman

|1.8.10 @ 5:05PM|

Fuck you!

|1.8.10 @ 5:15PM|

That would probably be illegal.

More like Henry "Phantom of The Opera" Waxman

To put it bluntly, ideology and demagogic leadership turned the lovers of Mozart into the builders of Auschwitz.

Nicely done! Completely off-topic and Godwined in 18 words.

Mozart wasn't Austrian to begin with.
Now Hitler, that's an Austrian!

Pelosi sounds either painfully or willfully stupid with that last comment. Makes you wonder if the entire Congressional leadership has gone completely tone-deaf. I've never seen a group more out-of-touch in my life. We've got 307 million people in this country worried about the economy while these 535 jokers play Break the Bank.

God help us all...

Ratko|1.10.10 @ 9:14AM|

yup

My only point is that if you take the Bible straight, as I'm sure many of Reasons readers do, you will see a lot of the Old Testament stuff as absolutely insane. Even some cursory knowledge of Hebrew and doing some mathematics and logic will tell you that you really won't get the full deal by just doing regular skill english reading for those books. In other words, there's more to the books of the Bible than most will ever grasp. I'm not concerned that Mr. Crumb will go to hell or anything crazy like that! It's just that he, like many types of religionists, seems to take it literally, take it straight...the Bible's books were not written by straight laced divinity students in 3 piece suits who white wash religious beliefs as if God made them with clothes on...the Bible's books were written by people with very different mindsets...

Hair extensions can really give you a very good look but you should be thoroughly aware of its pros and cons. People who have very feeble hair or no hair can go for hair plantations or permanent hair expansions but those who just want a new look or long hair can use the temporary methods. http://ibeautyhair.com
