Andrew Sullivan Officially Leaving the Right

HITO: I’ll e-mail you. Several bad puns came to mind!

» Posted By Corgi Lover On December 3, 2009 @ 6:05 pm

Tired and under the weather, HITO. No known reason.

HITO: You don’t have your snuggie on?

Grabamop: As I expressed yesterday elsewhere, I’m sorry to hear about the passing of your feline friend. Pets are sometimes far more human and caring than many humans. And we miss them so when they’re gone.

javaz: Don’t hold back! Tell us how you really feel!

Yes, I see a number of people who are seeing a lot of things there they don’t like now. Unfortunately, many return like they’re hooked on drugs and can’t live without the “juice”.

I admit, I’m among them. I ditched my bag of socks the other day and now am back with a new one. It’s very appropo. Some others have tried names lately with plays on this name and moderation is having none of it. Could it be that Rob S read my little piece and I’m on his shit list? Nah!! Yep. πŸ™‚

Aloha oe Huffpo!

“Hell and High Heels”
“One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”
“Miracle on 69th Street” (sorry, I had to say it)

And yet some of us are willing to dump fans when we kill off a sock because we know that the ego trip isn’t worth it.

BTW, thanks for refanning me. {said with a sly grin}

I could probably tell you how many I gave up in my various guises, but that’s an ego trip I’m not going to pursue.

But yes, there is a lot of addictive behavior over there, among other deviations seen there.

Yes, they do. As Agent86 once said, you haven’t really existed until you’ve been banned at HP (paraphrased, he’s here and can correct me if it’s not close enough)

There are CRIMES you can get banned for at HP, but the biggest are “crimes against the state”, otherwise known as questioning how things are done (especially moderators) or saying unflattering things regarding Arianna. Me, I did both. And proud of it!

30,000 Reasons to Leave Afghanistan

Actually, just looks like a name from Dragonriders of Pern.

Somehow I can’t picture Palin even having heard of Ann McCaffrey..

Just reminds me of the sound a snake wound make. SSSSSSSSS’

If someone put a $1 per gallon federal war tax on all alcoholic beverages, mandated to end at the end of our military involvement in Iraq, Afhanistan, and any other country in the middle east, I’m willing to bet that “Hundred Years” John would suddenly be all in favor of a quick and efficient withdrawal. Considering that Cindy and John McCain’s primary (honest) income comes from Hensley & Co (a beer and liquer distributorship she is chairman of) you can picture why suddenly withdrawal would become a “good thing”.

The Death of the Great Movie

There are so many memorable laugh scenes in “Christian”. The ones I remember best are the “Mistress of the Whip” scene with Rachel Welch, the “Hot Dog vendor” scene, the whole “parking ticket scene (can you say ‘silent scream’) but especially the “hunting party” scene.

I love this movie far more than Sellers in any of the Pink Panther movies. And with Ringo as a “straight man” it’s precious.

I hear where your husband is coming from. Growing up poor in a dysfunctional home is my own experience and it made me grasp harder at Christmas than if I’d been “normal” (whatever that is).

I admire the work of Katherine Hepburn and Spenser Tracy but it never comes to mind as things I go to seek out. Incidentally, even though I’m a Bogart fan, African Queen is not high on my list. I’m just not that much into certain types of personal conflict. Something about memories of my childhood, probably.

My wife was watching that movie, I had to leave the room. Ewwww. Formula is far too kind of a definition. Every last cliche’ out there.

I’m an old fashion Christmas guy, give me Holiday Inn, White Christmas, and the original Miracle on 34th Street and I’ll be happy. Most of the new stuff, not so much. And (blasphemy!) that includes “A Charlie Brown Christmas”.

I love film noire’, too. And, yes, I’m a Bogart fan. Casa Blanca, yes, but “To Have and Have Not” is just as enjoyable. The wartime propaganda films with Bogart in them are enjoyable. There’s one where he’s a hoodlum in NYC (imagine) helping the little German baker who’s caught up with some fifth columnists.

For me, “The Big Chill” (Lawrence Kasdan – dir, 1983) is my centerstone movie. The cast, the characters, the plot, the music. I know these people in this movie! And, for another, Silverado, also by Kasdan with some of the same actors.

And, although I didn’t like the man, I do like John Wayne movies. Fluff, but nice fluff.

And then there is Errol Flynn!

I tried not to mention “Porky’s” but it is the quintisential high school film, bawdy and all, far more that “American Graffitti” and the likes. It may be lowbrow, but the original was simply hilarious. True escapism.

Unfortunately, I do find some violent films interesting, but am disturbed by my own or other people’s fascination in too much violence. I prefer the older days when violence was implied, not glorified in minute detail.

To me, great films aren’t always artsy nor mass appealing. But most should be of highest quality and have something to cause warm memories to continue on from.

That said, I love films that cast humor on things. “Rustlers Rhapsody,” with Tom Berringer and Andy Griffith, is one such movie. Another is “Magic Christian,” with Peter Sellers and Ringo Starr.

Morning to everyone out there, BTW!

Let Us Talk Desserts

Kalima, I’m too cheap and broke, to eat desserts at a restaurant. And I do like a glass of Amaretto, also. Unfortunately, Type II diabetes precludes me from partaking of that too often, either.

A Thanksgiving Tradition

Hey, Khirad. I grew tired of the low grade trollies over there. Not even worth my effort at “educating” them. How is Tucson tonight?

BRING ME A BUCKET..

Hey, Deygirl. Good to see you “out” this evening! Thanks for the call. πŸ™‚ I see the story at HP has gone from outrageous behavior to merely child like. Oh, well.

» Posted By Corgi Lover On November 28, 2009 @ 4:35 pm

Whatever you think you are, you know you have friends. πŸ™‚

» Posted By Corgi Lover On November 27, 2009 @ 9:02 pm

You need to work up a special “Music to Serenade HuffPo By” evening and invite everyone who is over there.

I did see the comments over there about the YouTube links being down. I think the “control” they hope to regain is going to destroy them. πŸ™‚

So you telling us he was “86”ed again, is that it? He needs to get a new agent. Sorry to hear it.

» Posted By Corgi Lover On November 25, 2009 @ 6:13 pm

Thanksgiving

We can only hope he decides to chose that path. If he doesn’t, he’s still going to be a tad bit paranoid if he shows his pinhead back at HP anytime soon.

As I’ve said before, i’m still just a kind and gentle soul who wants to lead people unto the path of righteousness, even if I’ve got to take their head off to do so.

Bito: I technically live outside “the city”. And north. Although some of “the city” extends to across the highway from us in order for Phx to get the income from the merchants.

I thought you were to the south, javaz is in penal county (OK, it’s Pinal, but in AZ, you can never tell)

» Posted By Corgi Lover On November 25, 2009 @ 7:13 pm

I restrained myself. Believe me, I did!

» Posted By Corgi Lover On November 25, 2009 @ 7:10 pm

HITO: I left one of the “T”s out of your address!

» Posted By Corgi Lover On November 25, 2009 @ 7:03 pm

HITO, if you didn’t get the BCC, I hope (K) did. If he didn’t, I need to know and will just cut and paste a copy of it to you.
