Displaying 241 To 270 Of 1,116 Comments Weekend Music Thread – Back In The Saddle Cool! » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 7, 2011 @ 4:27 pm I like this one. To tell the truth, this song makes head straight to my favorite YouTube-to-MP3 site for a little shameless piracy: » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 7, 2011 @ 3:41 pm I can see clearly now; the rain is gone…
I know… I know… this is Live From The Planet Cornball… but I’ve always liked this song. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 7, 2011 @ 3:03 pm About Photoshopping girls and women right out of a photograph because looking at a photo of a female person might cause impure thoughts in men… Frankly, I had never heard of such a thing. It still boggles my mind. I found another good example of this, published by the Sociological Images website: Another example from the BBC: I find this truly bizarre. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 9, 2011 @ 4:36 pm They said it was 5.1 centimeters long… so let’s see… (punches calculator keys) that’s a little over 2 inches (to those of us who are not on the metric system.) Yep. That’s a big ant. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 9, 2011 @ 12:09 pm The article explains that Der Tzitung never publishes pictures of women, as they could be considered sexually suggestive. Wow. I don’t make a habit of criticizing other peoples’ religions, but that just seems wrong to me. It’s kind of dehumanizing to simply Photoshop the women out of the picture, as though they did not exist. Besides, it isn’t even very logical. Would it be okay to publish a picture of a woman that NO ONE was sexually attracted to? Would they refuse to publish a photo of the Statue of Liberty if she was in a picture of New York City, or would they Photoshop the statue out of the picture? What about the men in the photo? Those men might be sexually attractive to women or to gays, right? Come to think of it, people can find all kinds of things “sexually suggestive.” What if there was a material like satin somewhere in the shot? Some people might see it and that might lead them to thinking of satin sheets, which might lead them to thinking about sex… The whole thing doesn’t make much sense to me. You can’t prevent people from thinking about sex. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 9, 2011 @ 8:54 am I never thought about that, but you know… you’re right; it does. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 5, 2011 @ 3:38 pm Hey, I framed my Doctorate that I got from them and proudly hung it on the wall. Why not? » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 5, 2011 @ 3:37 pm You could always get your PhD from Thunderwood College! It only takes a few minutes. http://thunderwoodcollege.com/ They point out that being a completely non-accredited university, a degree that you can print out from their website is no different from degrees that many other “professionals” have, people who specialize in fields such as Reflexology, Parapsychology, Naturopathy, Intelligent Design, and Magnetic Therapy. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 5, 2011 @ 10:02 am No Mercy Shown, No Mercy Given I felt kind of somber myself, now that you mention it. It just seems kind of grisly to be celebrating somebody getting shot in the head, even if it IS Osama Bin Laden. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 5, 2011 @ 3:46 pm BREAKING NEWS: Osama Bin Laden Dead What was Bin Laden’s life like in a Pakistani suburban? Next Media Animation visualizes it this way:
I have no idea why they decided to end it the way they did, though. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 5, 2011 @ 5:59 am Look at this picture of President Obama from the White House’s Flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/whitehouse/5680156155/ It’s captioned “President Barack Obama listens during one in a series of meetings discussing the mission against Osama bin Laden, in the Situation Room of the White House, May 1, 2011.” I’ve never seen a photo of him like this one. Look at how serious he looks. His eyes are tired and red around the edges. It looks like he didn’t sleep well. I really feel for him looking at this picture. That had to be a tough decision for him to make. (I didn’t know if it was okay to re-post this photo; that’s why I put a link to it instead of embedding it here.) » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 3, 2011 @ 10:35 am kesmarn – Do ask them for my e-mail address. I’d be happy to talk about another painting request. Right now I’m busily painting a lotus pond and Buddha picture for Truth, but I’m totally free after that. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 2, 2011 @ 2:09 pm I am totally stealing that idea! I’ll go over right now and put that response down. Thanks. Glad I asked. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 2, 2011 @ 1:28 pm I just saw over at the HP some rightwinger trying to say that Obama just did this because he was angry that so much media attention was going to the royal wedding. I kid you not. For once, I was unable to come up with a suitable reply. What do you say to something like that? » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 2, 2011 @ 12:34 pm Yeah, that’s exactly how that went. Still, I was surprised to hear him give the President any credit at all. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 2, 2011 @ 12:30 pm That’s what I was thinking. Dude must have ice-water in his veins. Cool as a cucumber! I wouldn’t want to play poker with the guy. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 2, 2011 @ 11:47 am I feel like an American. Even though I’m a liberal, I’m still a real American. » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 18, 2011 @ 5:45 pm We always have what FDR described as the “economic royalists…” » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 2, 2011 @ 10:10 am Giving Corporations the Death Penalty choicelady – Great comment! » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 3, 2011 @ 10:51 am jkkFL – What do you suppose that might be? A cultural polarization perhaps? » Posted By Buddy McCue On April 26, 2011 @ 9:31 am Good grief! No way a simple “Happy Easter” deserves that response. I’ve never observed Easter myself, but I can’t imagine gong off on somebody like that. Incredible. » Posted By Buddy McCue On April 26, 2011 @ 5:43 am Here’s a good low-tech idea for bike pedals: Recycling used sponges for a softer pedal. That way you can ride bare-footed. Hi-tech gadgetry isn’t everything! » Posted By Buddy McCue On April 26, 2011 @ 5:50 am Perfect! » Posted By Buddy McCue On May 1, 2011 @ 5:14 am And of course, you MUST take the A-Train: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhK-zYfFsIY Duke Ellington with Ella Fitzgerald! » Posted By Buddy McCue On April 30, 2011 @ 8:32 pm How about a good train song? Arlo Guthrie singing “The City of New Orleans:” » Posted By Buddy McCue On April 30, 2011 @ 6:48 am Huffington Post: The Not-So-Sweet Smell of Success Latest Non-Progressive headline from The Huffington Post: “Paul Ryan’s Budget Becomes Bogeyman Uniting Progressives, Democrats,” by Sam Stein. The word “Bogeyman” usually refers to an object of irrational fear. Is Mr. Stein saying that there is actually nothing to fear from Ryan’s budget? Really? The article goes on to describe Democrats as “moths” who are drawn around the “first campfire of the season.” Everyone knows what happens to moths that are drawn to open flame, so he doesn’t bother to explain that one. Isn’t Sam Stein supposed to be some kind of liberal or something? » Posted By Buddy McCue On April 26, 2011 @ 9:10 am I really like the comparison of headlines. That transparent “stir-up-the-outrage” strategy was always annoying. » Posted By Buddy McCue On April 23, 2011 @ 1:35 pm I don’t think the Republicans would really agree with this modest proposal. The poor are much too useful as scapegoats for our nation’s ills. » Posted By Buddy McCue On April 19, 2011 @ 1:43 pm Weekend Music Thread – Heart Beats Good tune! I know a bit of trivia about this song: the bass player was Klaus Voorman, who was also the artist who illustrated the cover of the Beatles’ Revolver album. » Posted By Buddy McCue On April 23, 2011 @ 1:51 pmComments Posted By Buddy McCue
