— Open Blog Good evening morons.
Does the National Enquirer Deserve a Pulitzer for Breaking the John Edwards Baby Daddy Scandal?
Probably, but they'll never get one. According to the book Game Change Edwards' affair with Rielle Hunter was common knowledge among his campaign staff. So it seems clear that the MSM press could easily have broken the story if they had had the slightest interest. Everyone likes to mock the Enquirer but they are actually quite careful with their sourcing and haven't been successfully sued in decades. Plus they have the added distinction of actually making a profit which puts them above most of the MSM.
Update: The Enquirer was also the only paper to cover Bill Clinton's affair. And again in this case the media's non-coverage wasn't due to lack of resources or information - the story was basically sitting in their laps - it was purely a case of self-censorship. No such consideration was given to John McCain when the NYT couldn't wait to print an entire article based on mere suspicion of an affair*.
*And note the weasily note they tacked on a year(!) after the original article denying that they implied an affair. At that point their boyfriend was president so a walk back cost them nothing.
World Suicide Rates by Country
Apparently Belarus and Sri Lanka are very depressing places. And I kind of expected Japan to rate a little higher.
11 Random Observations From the Jack Daniel's Distillery Tour
The most important one being that it's made in a dry county so they can't give you free samples. I've been on the tour twice and it was still definitely worth taking. And yes you can get an olfactory buzz from sniffing the filtering charcoal.

The Giant Crystal Cave of Mexico
It's also one of the deadliest places on earth with a temperature of 122 deg F and a humidity of 100% - even humans in environmental suits can only survive for an hour or so.
Did Neanderthal Men Wear Makeup?
Okay nowhere in the article do they make it clear how they know that Neanderthal men actually used the powder. And even if they did, why couldn't it have been war paint?

So first, we have the UK study where 1,800 women had no G-spot. Now we're supposed to believe them when this study indicates that full lips on women make them look younger. There next study will tell us that women fake orgasms....

There's a pair of twins who work on the 3rd floor of my building with the last name Screws.
They're hot blondes.
The new guy had a meeting with one of them and mentioned before seeing him how odd he thought the name was. I had to warn him about the name in conjunction with the hotness so he didn't make some odd face like that sailor.

Oh we went by Dick. His parents picked Dick as the nickname for Richard.. He tried to become a Richard when he went into the police academy, but the guys all heard his best friend call him Dick one day and that stuck like glue for the rest of his life. Thankfully, even his headstone says Richard 'Dick' Rising.

These are not so hard to bake. The others I'm not sure about. But all it takes is knowledge of how to make a good pie crust, some fresh fruit, and a few other easy ingredients. Check out Pioneer Woman's website - she's got great recipes for everything!
Posted by: Intrepid at January 12, 2010 07:07 PM (92zkk)
However, if you want the best pie in the world, there was this apple farm here who used to sell these giant apple pies that looked like hug bags of pie dough pinched at the top and then baked. They also sold fresh apple cider. All outside a local grocery store.
Don't know what happened to them... haven't seen them in many years. Very sad.
I just found the best apple blossoms last week, though. A little shop in La Jolla, CA sells them. I wanted to ask if they'd ship me a box every week.

I used to show horses against Rielle Hunter's sister back in the '80s. Rielle Hunter's real name is Lisa Druck. This is her second round with fame or should I say infamy. There was a horse assassain making the rounds in the '80s, killing expensive show horses so the owners could collect the insurance money. Sick shite. Acoording to a Sports Illustrated article a while back, Lisa Druck's father set Tommy "The Sandman" Burns up in business and Lisa's horse, Henry the Hawk, was the first victim of the horse assassain.
What a crappy life she must have led. Of course at the time, my opinion of the Drucks were that they were snobby, rude, obnoxious social climbers. And they weren't graceful winners or losers. And basically bitches.

Well the Haitians are in good hands Hillary Rodham will be there for them.
Opie will give them much of our money. Money created by Capitalism. Non-Capitalist-Non-Global warming nations will send NOTHING, because they have NOTHING to send. So Opie will take his hands off the Golden Gooses neck just long enough to grandstand and all will be well.

Lisa Druck is scum.
John Edwards is scum.
The media is calling Rielle Lisa Druck Hunter a "Videographer" for Edwards campaign.
Tranlastion, he gave he a cover and cash so he could bone her 24/7.
Babies life is never going to be normal.
This is what LIBTARDS DO.

Maybe true Lacey, but Scott is in deep doo doo on a couple fronts.
He is taking a "lady" to the Mall for food on the 3rd date.
And she digs it enough to tell him that they are having kids together.

Mall food courts have pretty good chow these days. Back when i was a yung'un, it was basically just corn dogs and pizza.

I think Lisa Druck is probably certifiable, and her resemblance to the Glenn Close character in "Fatal Attraction" is really freaking me out, since I haven't seen her since the '80s (she didn't look like a rabbit killer back then, just a real bitch).
But spot on that Edwards, and Fred Baron "the Cleaner", are definitely scum.

LIBTARDS do not comprehend MERIT, because the CANNOT .........................HARNESS IT TO THEIR PURPOSES.
The ENTIRE Harry Reid episode illustrates a POINT that I can synopsize as NO ONE HAS.
Hear Gus now. Understand my talents later.
Harry Reid was describing how Barry Obama could be USED or SOLD in the LIBTARD POLITICALLY CORRUPT sense.
Harry Reid was CALCULATING Odimwits POLITICAL WORTH vis a vis HIS RACE/GENDER or other GRIEVANCE.

She just had some major surgery on her leg yesterday. Autoimmune. She'll be bionic woman before this is done. The surgeon says she'll be as good as new by May or so.
Love that modern medicine!

Eh, I'm just kidding. I've known him for a long time, but he's just quirky; you have to be to be an English prof. Besides, it's true that I've had my BA for 2+ yrs now. You have to take take advanced or grad-level courses to do something with a history degree.

TexasJew. Maybe your WIFE ate/ingested tooo much SALT? Or maybe she once ingested copious amounts of TRANSFATS? Or possibly she swallowed SMALL or even LARGE amounts of NON-GOVERNMENT HEALTH PANEL APPROVED..........SUGAR.
I don't want to pay for her health care.

It's called a Mut'a or temporary marriage. In Iraq, it was common as a legal form of prostitution by widows who needed some money.
In Iran they do things a little different; their law prohibits executing a virgin so they will marry an about-to-be-executed girl to one of the prison guards so he can deflower her the night before she is killed. Nice people.

It's called Mutah, aka "The Hadith of Ibn 'Abbas"; and it's canonical only for the Shiites. Most Muslims (including Osama bin Laden) think it's a disgrace.
There's various debates over whether it is or is not in Sura 4...

She does, but she started out at a Day School where they really had intensive language training. Hebrew Schools tend to be pretty weak.
Speaking of languages, I've always enjoyed Biblical-era Hebrew and enjoyed the crosslinks with other Semitic languages, modern and ancient. I also studied some Arabic. It's a whole other world, grammatically, from our European languges.
And thanks, Garrett and soulpile for your kind words. We morons and moronettes have to stay healthy to keep up the good fight!

As America declines, sad to say, learning languages will be more and more important for our kids. The center of power is shifting away from us, mainly because of our own stupidity as a nation..
Some people say that we should be learning Mandarin. In any case, we have a toxic governemtn right now. Being multi-fluent will be a neccessity.

602- Ok, that was pretty funny! Also, I just want to clarify for anyone skimming the thread: I HAVE NOT HAD SEX IN A FOOD COURT. Is my reputation preserved now?
So, would you like to?
Obligitory clarification: I couldn't resist the wiseass remark. If my darlin' Linda Lou saw this she'd laugh. Unless she thought I was serious, she'd then empty her S&W Ladysmith .38 into me andthen go hunting for some of my sshootin' irons, just to shoot any unperferated parts.

On the Amish Colonies, had folks tell about the electronic cash registers they use in their stores and the refrigerated trucks sitting next to the store.
As I remember, the rationale was that since the registers were powered by a solar panel, and the trucks by diesel engines, they were not actually connected to the grid, therefore, were acceptable.

re 714
Yes, it should have been pulled. I think the other egregious point is that they specifically picked an episode (or episodes if you count NCIS LA) that portrayed Christians in a negative light... for Christmas. While doing that, they also had to portray Muslims as being oh so sainted and kind. Talk about a finger in the eye, even without the Ft. Hood factor thrown in. Muslim = good, Christian = bad. It's so pc I had trouble seeing straight during the episodes.
It would be nice if Hollywood stopped covering their eyes and everyone else's. How about some truth-telling every once in a while?
