Displaying 0 To 0 Of 0 Comments Thanks for understanding, Cher. I feel friggin’ NAKED when just the words show! I hope this problem gets solved soon. » Posted By whatsthatsound On February 15, 2011 @ 4:03 pm Thank you. I hope it will, and appreciate that you read it. But it needs to be read along with the artwork I created for it, and that keeps disappearing when I post. » Posted By whatsthatsound On February 15, 2011 @ 3:54 pm Cher, I am having the same exact problem, and in fact pulled a post yesterday because of it. I don’t want my words to appear without an image, because to me they are one piece. » Posted By whatsthatsound On February 15, 2011 @ 3:53 pm 400 Posts! 20,000 Comments! Merry Xmas! That averages out to 50 comments per post. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 24, 2009 @ 4:27 am A corny, hokey and unashamably bleeding heart liberal good time I don’t get why it seems to have fallen out of the discussion of great films. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 23, 2009 @ 3:48 pm It’s a classic! DH was on a roll back then, with The Graduate and Midnight Cowboy, etc. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 23, 2009 @ 3:37 pm Wow! Kismet! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 23, 2009 @ 3:34 pm I have always loved the Grandfather character, Old Lodge Skins, played by Chief Dan George, in “Little Big Man”. That is a great, and overlooked, black comedy about how the West was “won”. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 23, 2009 @ 3:33 pm Welfare Kings and Queens in Congress Life on the (Animal) Farm: All animals are created equal, but some animals are more equal than others. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 22, 2009 @ 8:31 pm Survivorman Circa 2009: Somewhere in NE Georgia Hospital Fart Proudly! – Benjamin Franklin » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 23, 2009 @ 5:16 am Fantastic post, KQ! A definite case of taking life’s lemons, and turning them into lemonade for others to savor. Really thoughtful of you and very inspirational. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 22, 2009 @ 5:15 pm I’m blushing in Tokyo! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 23, 2009 @ 6:17 am Can’t have readers feeling calm-a -I think I’ll stop there…. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 23, 2009 @ 6:13 am Cheers, Abby! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 23, 2009 @ 6:01 am That’s what somebody wrote when I posted it at Huffy a few minutes ago. Okay…..working on it! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 23, 2009 @ 6:01 am They do the Bash! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 23, 2009 @ 5:47 am This should become a regular feature, here! You guys are brilliant! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 22, 2009 @ 9:47 pm Hey Q! Your avatar looks like the Brazilian flag! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 22, 2009 @ 6:18 am Nah, He was just angry He didn’t have as many fans as HumeSkeptic. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 22, 2009 @ 5:42 am Or in Her case, Goddessopause. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 22, 2009 @ 5:40 am She’s got more things than that to worry about (check out Her picture up above….that’s one Ug……whoops, we’re talking about God here, and I do NOT want to be turned into a pillar of salt!) » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 22, 2009 @ 5:09 am Welcome to the planet, Big Guy! Look, I hope it doesn’t sound like I’m picking through Your past, trying to find any little thing to smear you with. But I think I speak for all of us when I opine that turning Lot’s wife into a pillar of salt for looking back at her hometown as it burned was a bit excessive. Please tell me it’s a mistranslation. That in reality you turned her pillow into salt, or something like that. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 22, 2009 @ 4:14 am The 7 Mountains of Influence In Culture and Why You Should Be Concerned I like the expression, “God doesn’t have any grandchildren”. It can be interpreted in other ways, of course, but for me it means that unless people have gone through some period of intense questioning and challenging of the faith they were brought up in, and at some point come out on the other side of that with a personal spiritual outlook, I’m not sure they can even be said to be “religious” (or at least spiritual). They are just indoctrinated. They will follow orders, top down, hierarchical. They will have cognitive dissonance as regards professing to be devout followers of Christ or Allah while holding disdainful views of others and wishing them ill. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 21, 2009 @ 1:52 am Fantastic post! As my comments here have often shown, I am among the demoralized, but when I read something like this I am inspired and uplifted. I think YOU should run for president! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 20, 2009 @ 2:29 pm I know it’s pretty trite and probably lame, but to lighten things up, perhaps? To me, this administration is like the political version of George Lucas. Call it the “Episode IV Syndrome”. When we were younger, we watched the first Star Wars movie, and many of us were mesmerized! For me personally, it gave me as an adolescent the same feeling of magic I got from Christmas as a small child. The feeling that the first two (third not so much) Star Wars movies gave us when we were younger was something we anticipated feeling again, when we found out that after many years Lucas was restarting the series with a new movie. Expectations were at an all time high! It was more than just a hyped up movie, it was an event that people awaited, a chance to feel some of that magic again. And then? We sat through a mess of a movie that was made for children with a growing sense of WTF? It was as if Lucas had forgotten, or never realized, exactly what it was he had done twenty years earlier. And it was infuriating, because he offered no apologies. To this day he is in denial about what duds his second trilogy of films were. That feeling, that we were going to see some magic in our lives again, especially after eight years of a presidency we could hardly believe we were living through, and then the rhetoric of “change” and “hope” and “Yes We Can!”. It’s been a rude and abrupt awakening. May the Force be with us! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 19, 2009 @ 9:37 pm Much appreciated. I think it is time to drop derogatory remarks such as “childish”, “whiners”, etc., when referring to people who have looked at the last nine or ten months and assessed them differently. They don’t deserve to be talked down to and have their feelings and concerns dismissed/ridiculed just because they are different from one’s own views. Great post, btw. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 19, 2009 @ 7:34 pm “Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good”. It sounds so sensible, so adult. Who could argue? The only problem is, it is usually just feelgoodspeak for “We’ve already got the Greed Kings to agree to throw the rest of you folks a bone that still has a little bit of fat on it. That’s the best deal you’re gonna get from them. Take it or leave it.” » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 18, 2009 @ 9:26 pm It’s an interesting idea, typo-knig. I like it! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 21, 2009 @ 5:39 pm Religious Right Holds “Prayercast” To Stop Health Care Bill Howdy, KQ, and thanks! » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 18, 2009 @ 2:08 am Under the Taliban, women are prohibited from receiving an education. As backwards as the Christian Right here are, they are not the Taliban, nor do I imagine they would ever reach that point. At least give them “credit” for setting up Michelle Bachmann and Sarah Palin (women in government? Outrageous!) as two of their most outspoken and high profile leaders. » Posted By whatsthatsound On December 18, 2009 @ 2:00 amComments Posted By whatsthatsound

AdLib, I wanna prize for doing the math!
Like javaz, I love the bathing scene. The pompous preacher, Faye’s husband, comes in and says, “Haven’t you finished scrubbing that boy yet? I’m hungry!”
Dustin Hoffman is his usually great self.

But, another typo, you’ve set the date for January, 2009. Upcoming year is 2010.
I’ll try to send you some silence from Japan.
