Well see, the more people who are killed, especially U.S. troops, the better. That proves that the insurgents are desperate, and we're winning. Just a few dead-enders don't you know.
Then we will achieve President Bush's goal, to establish a Shiite theocracy in Iraq allied with Iran. That's what we fought this war for in the first place, right?
Genocide in the making in yet another country.
All hail our dealess leader in his quest to divide and conquer the entire world.

Sounds like the desperation meter is soaring.
but the media must not mention this
An Oil Company That Doesn't Suck.
Buy Gas at Citgo. No, Really...
It turns out that Citgo, US refining firm and a national chain of gas stations which pepper our town, is a subsidiary of Venezuela’s state-owned oil company. Who knew?
Buy Citgo gas...Save our democracy.
OK, this is waaaaaay OT but there's this movie called "Tank Girl" on SciFi now I guess it is....what's up with this thing? Is this one of them 'cult classics' I hear tell about?
I would be happy to reassure you. But I am spending the weekend at my Hamptons house. Tonight I shall dine at Nick and Toni's and then attend a cocktail party at the summer home of Charles Murray. I drove my Hummer here and it would just waste too much gas for me to come back and reassure you. Plus, if I neglected to attend the party, my family would surely suffer a decline in income.

I was just thinking, at this rate Iraq will soon be safe because nobody will be there but us. Everyone else will be dead. Jesus, can someone please explain to me why Rummy still has a job? And why Wolfie got promoted. This is fucking sick and it is on their heads. I don't think I could live with myself if I knew that I had caused this much death and destruction. And for what. Oil.

Honestly, I can't take all the murder and mayhem anymore. Within the next month I'm going to be getting out. I'm leaving all traces of me behind. Folks, America is in its death spiral. Make arrangements to get out or to be in a better position to protect you and yours.

Oh well......
From the reading I've done, it seems that the insurgents/Resistance is not as inclined to try to melt away when confronted by US troops. They don't seem as afraid of us as they used to and are standing and fighting for a while before trying to get away. I've noticed more reports of US troops killed or wounded by small arms fire in various firefights than used to be the case. I have no single citation for this -- it's just an impression I've gotten reading scattered bits here and there.

Considering how the band was put together, the Monkees could've been a whole lot worse and just sunk like a stone, never to be recalled again. I kinda enjoyed them as a change of pace back in the day -- plus their tv show was fucking hilarious -- sort of the Marx brothers with guitars -- all non sequitor and innuendo with a dash of slapstick thrown in.

cf Small Wars, Col. CE Callwell, viz.
It's a small war, it's not only a small war, it's one in exactly the same place, on exactly the same terms as the one that took place in 1922, and the outcome is inevitable. That's not a term I use lightly. But this - as a result of the stone, cold idiocy, crappy education and podunk training of the individuals involved is G-d inevitable.
Okay Incog you answered my question as to whether or not I should bring the laptop on vacation. It is staying home. Fuck, I might not even read a newspaper for a couple of weeks. Maybe it will do me good.

Jenny from the Blog:
That Jimmy Page was a heck of
a dancer, wasn't he?
On this Memorial Day weekend, I hope the American people will focus on the massive loss of life of Americans and Iraqis in this war whose end is no where in sight.
http://asilentcacophony.blogspot.com
After my move, I will be starting a blog about surviving the coming superstorm of upheavel headed our way when the lights are finally extinguished. My compound is where I will be headquartered.
The Monkeys were quite good, and as you say..........considering they were put together like a modern boy band, it could of been so much worse.
It only got a bit silly when some people compared them to the Beatles.
Speaking of crimes against the republic.
If we get real about it, our entire Congress has been criminally negligent for not demanding the minimum of national security here at home.
They dropped the ball on getting the money out to the First Responders in our cities. They dropped the ball on securing our ports and nuclear facilities and insisting on real security for our airlines.
The cargo baggage areas of our planes are still not secure.
They are all responsible for backing down on the most critical needs of our country. Supporting a phony, trumped up war, throwing billions and billions down the drain.
There is terrorism. And thanks to the assholes at the helm it's multiplied ten-fold since 911.
They are all responsible, in some way or other, and by extension, so are we -- for not demanding that our national needs get met.
Okay. I clearly need more than a neurologist. I need a brain transplantologist to get me through the rest of the day!

From "The Godfather II:"
At a birthday celebration for Hyman Roth, Michael recounts witnessing the death of a Fidel Castro rebel.
Michael Corleone: A rebel was being arrested by the military police, and rather than be taken alive, he exploded a grenade he had hidden in his jacket. He killed himself and he took a captain of the command with him...it occurred to me the soldiers are paid to fight, the rebels aren't
Hyman Roth: What does that tell you?
Michael Corleone: They can win.
Just sayin' ...
Was it Tank Girl who rode over her boyfriend in a tank and then went on to marry a chimp-human and walk around with a bizarre robotic grin on her plasticene face? That movie sucked.
Or am I thinking of something else?
All those things are true Jenny. It's why intoxicants of all kinds are needed now more than ever.

Having never seen an actual dead-tree issue of the National Review before, I'm struck by the minor similarities in cover design and font choices to the basic cover design of Time. Switch the blue fringe for red, move the triangular blurb on the upper left corner to the upper right, and I think you'd get something very close to the Time design.
Am I reading too much into that?
(are the women in Sabretooth changing their outfits hourly?)
For 1/2 star movie I'd put up "Vibes" I think it was with Pia Zadora and Jeff Goldblume.

And when I hear their songs today they still sound pretty good.

For footloose:
There was a kid I grew up with, he was younger than me. Sort of hooked up with me, you know. We did our first work together, worked our way out of the street. Things were good, we made the most of it. During Prohibition we ran molasses into Canada, made a fortune, your father too. As much as anyone I loved him and trusted him. Later on he had an idea to build a city out of a desert stopover for GIs on their way to the West Coast. That kid's name was Moe Green. And the city he invented was Las Vegas. This was a great man — a man of vision and guts. And there isn't even a PLAQUE, or a SIGNPOST, or a STATUE of him in that town. Someone put a bullet through his eye. No one knows who gave the order. When I heard it, I wasn't angry. I knew Moe; I knew he was headstrong — talking loud, saying stupid things. So when he turned up dead, I let it go. And I said to myself, this is the business we've chosen! I didn't ask who gave the order, BECAUSE IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH BUSINESS! That two million in the bag in your room. I'm going in, take a nap. When I wake, if the money's on the table, I'll know I have a partner. If it isn't, I know I don't.
Pia Zadora had a freakish cuteness about her. I think I remember some crazy movie called "Butterfly".
Jenny - yeah, I'm kinda sorta thinking about planning on it. Is that enough of a commitment, do you think?

Oh come now Liberal Elitists, The President has assured us that the insurgents fighting in Iraq is a sign of their being defeated. If the violence were to stop it would mean that the terrorists have won. Or something like that.
Cyndi? Well then what piece-o-crap do I remmeber Pia from? Well I guess that's why they call them forgetable eh?
From the reading I've done, it seems that the insurgents/Resistance is not as inclined to try to melt away when confronted by US troops.
Yesterday I watched a CNN report anchored by this blonde, simmering with on cue patriotic outrage, she talks interestingly out of the side of her $35,000 mouth.
Anyway she was ballyhooing the 40,000 troop "cordon" arounf Baghdad.
The guy on the ground via satellite waited on the delay to hear her airbrushed comfirmatory statements regarding this new "safety net".
He then said, "Let's wait before we talk about 40,000 troops ringing this city. As of right now, there is no such thing. There are plans to coordinate a multiforce defensive posture, but right now, there are *not* 40,000 soldiers in the field forming a barrier around this city."
This strangely formed RNC/CNN Barbie doll was stumped at that report.
She fucking had nothing.
"So much death"
...and it brings a smirk to the bushcriminal's face.

Wow, Gimli is in Sabretooth.
This just goes to show you how hard it is to get cast in a decent movie.
It's so hard to get an acting job that actors are glad to get cast in ANYTHING, no matter how pathetic.

Good enough for me! I haven't started the planning yet myself and it's gonna be expensive for sure. I'll be flying from LA to West Palm Beach to Philly and back to LA and god knows how much that's gonna cost. Not to mention the hotel at EschaCon and the food and whatever.
Better start saving now. I can't believe myself that I'm doing it. But I figure it's a once in a lifetime thing and it's going to be memorable. So it's worth it.
thanks res. I love how Lee Strasburgh does the scene with noises of sickness and stuff. So real.

Damn. It is getting seriously fucking dark here. Thunderstorm dark.
When you've occupied your enemy's capital for 3 years and then have to cordon it off with the equivalent of two divisions and mount massive sweeps through the neighborhoods to try to root out "insurgents," it's hard to maintain the fiction that you are winning.
So it's worth it.

Go figure.
Has anyone else noticed that a few news outlets have started actually saying that some of our helicopters have been downed, instead of always sugarcoating it by saying they "crashed"? As if nobody does any maintenance or is capable of piloting the things. It truly makes me sick to see the media whores minimizing the sacrifice of our troops in order to try to hold on to that last, desperate point above 40% in Dubya's approval rating.
Heh, Oliver Stone was arrested for drunk driving and drug possession.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Funny how they always frame the shot in a certain way when someone is just about to get attacked...
Here's surely the worst dialog of all time:

Wasn't this financed by the Sci Fi Channel? I've pitched ideas to the SciFi channel and, if they like the concept, they'll pony up about 2 million and make the cheesiest version of it they can. That's one reason there seems to be a theme running through all SciFi channel financed movies -- I actually pitched when the theme was giant creatures. I tried to do some variants on the theme, so of course I sold them nothing.
David Keith and Keith David would look very cool on a movie poster.
I saw Keith David play Othello to Liev Schrieber's Iago once and it was very, very good.
Keith David was creepy as shit in "Requiem for a Dream." Come to think of it, everyone was creepy as shit in "Requiem for a Dream." Who was the poor bastard who lost his arm?

My wife and I spent a week in the Virgin Islands in early April; no blogs, no news, not even TV. It was nice and relaxing.
I don't recall seeing any other horror movies where the black guy actively *tries* to get himself killed...
Yep, glasses guy is getting eaten next.
Sorry eli, I meant Kari Wuhrer and she played Maggie in the series.
Oh, and he's a black guy in a *red* shirt.
Talk about asking for it.
George W. Bush is a concept by
which we measure our pain.
Eli, me neither.
Hey, surly Lost guy must be astonished to find himself on a hit show after doing crap like this.
He probably thought Lost was another creature show.
George W. Bush is a concept by
which we measure our pain.
I thought he was the unit by which we measure out IQ.
*our*, rather.
I wonder if the Indian markings have some kind of sabretooth prophecies...
Oh, and he's a black guy in a *red* shirt.
He won't make it to the next commercial break.
KITTY!
I've pitched ideas to the SciFi channel and, if they like the concept, they'll pony up about 2 million and make the cheesiest version of it they can.
Fuck, I could do that.
the unit by which we measure
Manhood?
You know that mountain lion was no threat.
He was just looking for Frist.
the unit by which we measure
Manhood?
I was thinking his intelligence might be the baseline for the IQ point.
Okay- they're advertising this as "30 hours of bad-ass movies."

When is that tomato throwing party?

Well, now I'm going to think this every time I see a cat thank you.
Gimli gets all the good lines.
It's starting to get dreary and rainy here in Shreveport. Fits my mood these days. All that Dallas weather evenutally hits us. Wish I didn't have to go to work and could just chill, maybe cook something and drink some beer.
Actually, I'm thinking glasses guy *won't* get killed, but will in fact somehow use his nerdy internets knowledge to save the day.
Here comes the fodder moment.
Gimli gets all the good lines.
If there were any.
footloose - Sallyh, on an earlier thread, swore to Atrios that we were being good. She even told him we had cleaned the joint up (except the carpet that is stained with troll entrails). He's coming back soon, so we can't mess the place up with no tomato fights.
Geesh!
I've seen the SciFi movie before. I wont tell you how it turns out. There's an unusual sub-plot twist at the end, though.

My favorite bad continuity moment was an episode of the old tv show Peyton Place. Mia Farrow apparently changed her blouse to answer a ringing phone and then changed back again when she returned to the room to tell her mother who was on the phone.

Wesley Clark, at Cornell today, transcribed courtesy of 8_year_nightmare at DU.
We’re embroiled in a vicious conflict in Iraq that’s consumed hundreds of American lives & threatens to undermine the strength of our all-volunteer military. And we see a terrorist leader who still defies the world & hides from the reach of American justice. And we see despotic regimes in Iran & North Korea continuing to pursue nuclear weapons. And we see hundreds of millions of people around the world who now profess to distrust our nation & dislike our foreign policy. And we see emerging economic competitors around the world who, in five years, or even tomorrow, can threaten American jobs & our standard of living.
You see, what happened is we won the Cold War but we lost our global strategy. The threats have changed, our situation’s changed, technology’s changed, our nation’s changed, & we still haven’t created a new framework for America’s engagement in the world & our actions & policies at home.
We need a framework that will preserve America’s freedom of action, our prosperity, our security, keep us & our families safe, & help us enjoy the fruits of our own labors here. And we don’t have it yet.
In the old days, we called the strategy deterrence & containment. But today, as the lone superpower in the world, we need a new strategy. We need to call it a strategy of American leadership. And we need to find it, because we haven’t found it yet. (applause).
Leadership. Gen. Eisenhower defined it this way. It was a definition we all had to memorize in military leadership at West Point. ‘Leadership,’ he said, ‘is the art of persuading the other fellow to want to do what you want them to do.’ He didn’t say it was force, manipulation, or the exercise of raw power. (applause) He said it was an art. (applause)
We need that kind of leadership today -- not the bullying kind of leadership. (applause) Not the kind of leadership…(applause)… we don’t need the kind of leadership that’s so hackneyed that even George Lucas quotes it in Star Wars. That if you’re not with us you’re against us. (applause) That’s not what we’re looking for. (applause)
We need the kind of leadership that moves nations & peoples with our ideals: steady, patient, balanced, determined…leadership that works to bring the world together to focus on the common tasks, not to divide it. And that works to build international structures, to promote development, to resolve disputes between nations, to respond to disasters, & to help advance our ideals of respect, dignity, security & health for every human being in the world. (applause) And we need that leadership at home, too. (applause).

I apologize for my Clark flashing today, just scroll by and I won't be offended. It's just that the Memorial Day season is getting to me this year, like Christmas or Easter sometimes still do. That link may be overloaded, since I haven't been able to get the video to roll yet, and have to bug out for a while soon. I see all of those 'applause' interruptions in the transcript and am reminded of the rotten egg that President AWOL layed with his speech at the Naval Academy yesterday, the worthless turd.
Too much Fred Astaire?
No such thing!

And we see a terrorist leader who still defies the world & hides from the reach of American justice
Even Clark wont tell the truth.
This is what we get from dems.Fear of telling it like it is.
Voted for Clark in the primary. He is such a statesman.

I'm pretty sure there was a Fringe Festival musical along these lines.
Also, there is a magazine on the newstand these days called (I'm not making this up): "Heeb: The New Jew Review."
And why is whenever there's a shot of President Douchebag praying, it looks like he's trying not to fart?
Possibly because he's the only one in the picture who's actually hearing voices, out loud, speaking English (or possibly Texican).
Fellow bloggers: please check this out - thanks!
Now the Uncompassionate Science Babe is complaining about how inhumane the traps are...
I thought Tom Bosley was a Roman Catholic priest (or is he a small town sheriff?)

Once a sabre-tooth clamps down on you, their jaws lock and you'll never get away from their grip.
mena--
"mandate" was the world the League of Nations came up with when it carved up the Ottoman Empire into colonies for the British & French -- everyone was saying that they were opposed to colonialism, so the "mandated" territories were given into the care of the Limeys & Frogs to "prepare them for independence" -- I'm sure they would have gotten them ready in a few more centuries...
Okay, how about: Jews II: Again with the Jews!

He opposed legislation to ban teaching evolution in the clssroom! Poster would depict running GOP and Left Behinders!!
Res, in case nobody posted it yet, the guy who lost his arm in Requiem for a Dream was Jared Leto, who was also in My So-Called Life and also also in Panic Room, which should have been a good movie with Jodie Foster and Forest Whitaker, but then really wasn't, so much.

Has anybody noticed that the SCLM always makes sure we know that it's IRAQIS the guerillas in Iraq are killing?
For example here.
OK. So what you ask?
1.) You never, ever hear from them about civilian casualties caused by American bombings?
2.) WHO THE FUCK WOULD CAR BOMBS IN IRAQ BE KILLING? Canadians?
So when did Tom Bosley convert? (I certainly hope he was already circumcised!)

Prior Aelred - Yes, well, that's why I paid the big bucks to go to History school.
Don't forget - Woodrow Wilson declined to accept the Mandatory for Arabia or any similar location - including, I believe Armenia, which actually had a fairly sound reason for thinking he might. The US doesn't do that kind of thing.

smalfish, there is an emerging theme in entertainment that enviornmentalism is bad, it's bad and it' s not cool. This is especially apparent in the entertainment that passes as news among the stupid. An early feeler was the "there are two sides to the global warming debate". Our corporate oligarchs want to make nature seem alien and dangerous and, most of all, boooooring.
No silly. you're supposed to gnaw your leg off...

earl - after WWI, when Great Britain was effectively bankrupted as a result of war, but was still obligated to various mandates, Iraq irrupted into war. There was no way that GB could despatch ground troops - there was no money, and fewer troops. At that point, Lord Hugh Trenchard made the startling proposal that the RAF might be able to restore order to the area, both out of its efficacy as an air service (something which had yet to be tried) and because of the significantly smaller expense.
Thus, the RAF was granted the option and in fact quenched the uprising in Irak, from north to south. It was the first time in modern military history that an air service had done this kind of work and has served as a model ever since. One of the consequences was the agreement between the English and the French to watch and ward the area designated as belonging to the Kurds, in Northern Irak - you may be aware that the current northern 'no-fly zone' is in fact this treaty area; and amazingly is an area and obligation still being honored.
My recommendation in 1991 was that the British MI6, then housed in a lovely high rise on the other side of the Thames, consider going downstairs to the Indian Office Library and Records center (down about five stories) and extract the complete operational records of the action and re-issue them as standing orders. I dunno if anybody did it, but it sure sounded as though at least somebody thought about it.

With that particular partner, it has mainly been live action scifi movie and tv projects -- along with some more "entertainment industry"-related stuff I hope to be able to mention here fairly soon, but I am sworn to secrecy at the moment. He was formerly the head of one of the "family entertainment" divisions of one of the major studios, but just as things were really rocking and we were working on some interesting stuff there, the studio was sold and all the executives were replaced.
On my own, I story edit and write episodes for tv animation series -- hence my nom de 'nets. I also had writing credits (in one form or another) on 6 episodes of the "Young Hercules" spin-off from "Hercules" and "Xena." That's when I met Lucy Lawless, who is not anywhere as big, robust, and tough-looking in person, but then who is?
Well, now I'm out for a while. But I'll be back in early. See ya.
I like how Evil Scientist Babe thought the sabretooth would listen to and obey her...
Not only is it a vicious predator, but it's a fucking *CAT*.

That's when I met Lucy Lawless, who is not anywhere as big, robust, and tough-looking in person, but then who is?

But that's not saying much.
BTW --
"Air Control" in Iraq (& elsewhere whre it was tried) also meant that the British went into WWII with no maps of these areas theoretically under their control -- when soldiers marched someplace, they always took cartographers along -- airplanes didn't (although they did get lost rather a lot -- they also carried a card offering a reward if they were returned to the nearest British post & doubtless hoped that if they went down, they would be recvoered by someone who was neither vindictive nor illiterate)
Not only is it a vicious predator, but it's a fucking *CAT*.

So I've been bothered that The Eschatonians aggregator that runs here was having issues parsing dates out of certain rss feeds *cough* First Draft *cough*. Taking some time from enjoying the sunny hot steamy weather, I decided to hack on some code, specifically the magpie rss parser. Now everything works, if you let it. The process of creating the caches still seems a bit slow, so I might look next at some optimisation there.

I have 3 books of poetry published by small presses and I'm getting together in the near future with a fellow who writes for a tv show and has done so for comedy movies. I'm going to show him an idea for a children's tv show. we get along quite well; jokes, anecdotes, etc.. so I think I'm going to say to him; if you think there's anything of value in these ideas, let's collaborate.

A search of his Mercedes turned up drugs, Edmundson said
