Viewpoints: Ice scrappings

At least you made it in another way.

"In a related, follow-up story, Jesus Christ was shot and killed as soon as his feet hit the ground, according to eye witness accounts." "The suspected gunman, a known church going Christian and Pro-Lifer, was convinced The Lord would vote to uphold Roe v. Wade, according to his attorney". "DNA tests are pending as soon as The Shroud of Turin can be obtained". "Now, back to Two and a Half Men".

Oh how I wish they would run a NewYorker comment!

Oh no, I've been published...

Sorry I don't find the example of "Christ Coming" a very good
example in describing this tv viewing problem. I'm sure
many of the regulars do, but am also sure plenty do not!

govskeptic: You are so bitter and looking everywhere for pervasive deception. "The Second Coming" of Christ exaggerates the stupidity of TV weather alerts. I'm quite sure if Jesus did come back to Earth, you'd be first in line demanding a DNA test and for exhuming Mother Mary's tomb for a paternity test.

I thought it was a great example, gd. The local stations seem to thrive on a good "weather crisis". When I see clouds rolling in, I'm thankful to have other viewing options.

B & N called the law firm. They wanted to know what section to put your book in: "Religion", "Self-Help" or "Cooking Naked"?

Everyone check out political cartoonist Luckovitch today...in the Atlanta Journal.

Thanks loner, it wasn't intended as an LTE...but I am honored to joint the distinguished ranks of yourself and Dargent.

Do I get a free tux?

Which one, D7, the Updated Constitutional Convention cartoon? "We the Corporations..." That's a great cartoon, IMO. The dead hand of the Bush dynasty is still on the joy stick, their SCOTUS appointments were all judges who are undemocratic, by nature. It should surprise nobody that this Supremes Court cannot distinguish between "We the People" and "We the Corporations". The judges were selected because of their myopia, not in spite of it.

No free tux. Don't forget, CW Clouse is in the club too. As is Tony Zizza - the Taylor Swift afficianado.

Yeah, one gets a certain cocky feeling knowing that one has been published, don't let it go to your head, kid.

gdia is going to be hard to live with now.

I've been sending smoke signals...no response yet.

Next time I see an airplane with a banner.....well don't fly to low. 8->

Some of the people will think it is polution and some will think its solution. -Grnny Hutch

One of my J's is in the smoke too.....I'll roll more.

Loner: Yes, that's the Luckovich cartoon. He's the best.
And if Taylor Swift wins any of the 9 Grammy's she's up for on Sunday, someone please check on Zizza in the morning. His tongue will be spot welded on the carpet.
And, if Lady GaGa is snubbed and that twit sweeps the awards, someone check on me.

Yeah, Zizza will be energized. The fawning, gushing, love letters will be forthcoming. The guy is setting himself up for the big fall.....when the dirty laundry eventually gets aired. And you know that's coming, down the road.

Lukovich is very talented, I agree. The greatest living cartoonist is Robert Crumb, IMO. I bought his Illustrated book of Genesis; it is a masterpiece. Of course, that's just my opinion.

gdia: Sunday, 31st, same as the Pro Bowl. Check local listings.

And if Jesus decides to return, I hope He has the decent sense to schedule His appearence after the Pro-Bowl and before the Super Bowl. I don't want The Who preempted for any reason, including salvation. "Heaven Can Wait", for Christ's sake.

Must be getting old. It took me this long to figuer out what you meant Loner. J :-/

Isn't there supposed to be a few who are slain and lying in the street for the world to see for three days, and then resurrected?

Yes, I've read Hal Lindsey.

I know, gdia. What could of been really cool, is have McCartney on bass and Ringo himself on drums. Now THAT would be a half time show!
