Thanks to those downthread who like my gravatar. I made the image originally for the inside cover of one of my CD projects. When I first saw the infamous "electrocution man" photo, I thought his arms look like a peace sign.
I recall a news report at the time that showed some Muslim women gasping at the image, saying he looked like Jesus on the cross.
That reminds of the kids in my fifth grade who told me that the peace sign was bad because it was the cross with its arms broken. I remember thinking that was silly--and why not break that horrible execution intrument so that Christ's arms can reach down to us? Well, it was 1975, we were ten, and full of the crazy ideas our parents fed us.

Bigger Gravatars
When Haloscan went out just then I felt the urge to yell KHHHAAAAAANNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!
I have sad news. Mr. Litz's cat is on her last paws. She is 18 years old and has stopped eating. When she does eat, she can't hold it down. She's peeing on the floor.
Give her an antibiotic. It may be a urinary tract infection. If not, it won't make the situation any worse.
I was thinking . . .
Wanted to share a comment on the national polarization on "impeach or not impeach". My concern is this is not a political issue -- as some would assert, therefore, by implication (which I disagree) impeachment is a political act, and discretionary.
I disagree. I view the starting point of the discussion not whether we do or not do something about the President; but the opposite: What has happened; then what do we do. Whether [a] Congress does or does not impeach does not change [b] what the President has or has not done. Whether Congress acts, does not change whether the President is required to follow the law; and whether Congress chooses to impeach or not impeach does not change whether the President is responsible for his oath of office.
Even if the President is not impeached by Congress, he still has his oath -- as does everyone else in government, and the legal community -- to protect the Constitution. If Congress chooses to do nothing, that does not mean that Congress -- alone, by inaction -- has the absolute power of absolution. Rather, the President's conduct is not measured from whether the Congress does or does not act, but relative to the law.
The question becomes: Who does something about the President's activity; and do they have a legal obligation to act. Once Congress says they will not impeach, but the President is still violating the law, then it falls on all other government officials -- even at the state level -- to decide what they are going to do to protect the Constitution. Congress choosing to do nothing does not change the law, but compels action along other fronts.
The President -- outside impeachment by Congress -- can be prosecuted by attorney generals. Talk to the Lawyer named Jonathan Turley, he's written on this.
The Point
Some in the legal community argue that Presidential accountability -- not just impeachment -- is a political decision. Incorrect: It is a legal decision.
If Members of Congress, as members of a legislative body -- as was done during WWII in Germany -- refuse to impeach, it means they've not used all their lawful options to protect the Constitution or enforce the law.
Once the President does or does not act to enforce the Constitution, then those who have a duty to protect the Constitution -- but fail, refuse, or do not act, as required -- become culpable.
It's one thing for the legal community to argue that they can't do anything -- this is false, they could prosecute the President ta the state level; and also systematically target for disbarment all legal counsel who have enabled war crimes. It's one thing to leave the President unchallenged; but it's worse when the legal community is not held to account.
The Proposal
Time to make the legal community decide: Are they going to side with the Constitution; or with the President. This challenge needs to be made by the public to their private counsel.

My cat was 22-years-old when she stopped eating. She was not in pain so I didn't take her to the vet. Five days before she died, she stopped eatinig. Three days before she died, she stopped drinking water, even though I would wet her lips.
The body shuts down. If your cat is not in pain, I would let her die at home. But that's just me.
We will leave Iraq when we can leave with honor, and not one second before. Why is that so hard for liberals to understand?
Moon, that's bizarre, having a tooth removed caused max to stop eating?
We've already been through lipidosis with Pudd'n, she had her regular shots and that did something to throw her off her food. Apparently with cats, if they stop eating for a few days then sometimes it's hard for them to start back up and they get fatty liver disease. We had to force-feed Pudd'n, and she snapped out of it.
That was 5 years ago. I think Mr. Litz saw her snap out of it 5 years ago and is hopeful she can bounce back this time but geez, she's 18 years old. There's no bouncing back at that age.

he was taken to the vet again, he was kept under observation for a couple of days and then the vet advised my parents to put Max down, they could find no physical problem

Well it's going to take a while: the fucking insurgents took out oil rig #15, which had been pumping out honor, and they've busted up the pipelines so it's going to be a while before we get a good flow of honor again.
But once that rig gets going, it will produce enough honor to more than make up for all the honor it cost us to get into this war. We'll be swimming in honor.

Since you're not posting from Iraq, TOOL, what is this "we" of which you speak?
Time to make the legal community decide: Are they going to side with the Constitution; or with the President.
If legal counsel isn't willing to prosecute the President -- outside the impeachment process of Congress, which is allowed [talk to Georgetown Prof Jon Turley] -- then the public needs to, in my view, fire counsel.
Until the public forces the legal community to prosecute the President, we're not going to have any accountability. Please encourage your friends to do as was done in 1215 at Runnymead with the Magna Charta: Get the most powerful -- We the People -- to challenge the leadership.
Today's challenge is a simple question: What side is your legal counsel on: The law, or the President. Unless they choose the law, they are not doing their job. Please remind them of rules 8.3 and 8.4 which require -- in some states -- mandatory reports of peer misconduct. Ask your legal counsel why, if they are not supporting Congressional impeachment, why they are not supporting reviews of attorney peers.
The way forward is to stop waiting for Congress to agree on impeachment; and force -- as was done in 1215 at Runnymead with the Magna Charta -- for the leadership in America to decide whether they agree that all people, even attorneys, shall remain under the law; and enforce their obligation to protect the Supreme Law.
America's legal community does not appear as though it has chosen the right answer. It's time for We the People to confront them and make them choose between this President or the Constitution. In my view, if they choose the wrong answer, they need to be fired, disbarred, and then prosecuted. They have no real choice sa King John in 1215 did not have.
Until they are confronted, the legal community will continue to pretend they can't do anything. No, they can do something if they are reminded who their clients are: We the People.
Good luck.

More and more troops for the zionist cause. Only Israel benefits from these endless Middle East wars. Iraq is the beginning. As we commit war-crimes in Baghdad, the US gov't commits treason at home by opening mail, eliminating habeas corpus, using the judiciary to steal private lands, banning books like "America Deceived" from Amazon and Wikipedia America Deceived (book), conducting warrantless wiretaps and engaging in illegal wars on behalf of AIPAC's 'money-men'. Soon, another US false-flag operation will occur (sinking of an Aircraft Carrier by Mossad) and the US will invade Iran.. Then we'll invade Syria, then Saudi Arabia, then Lebanon (again) then ....

An explosion near the UN compound in Mogadishu has killed three people, shortly after the UN's top aid official arrived to tour the Somali capital.

Holmes was in the city to meet Abdullahi Yusuf, the country's president, but the source said the attack, the latest targeting senior officials in Mogadishu, was unrelated to his visit.

I'm assuming the troops do what they are told to do.
And considering the level of recruitment the armed forces have had to stoop to to get recruits, it's understandable, even though it is deporable.
"It is hard to be anti-American in New York, because it is impossible to be more anti-American than a New Yorker."
What can be said to such inanity?
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Any definition of 'the heartland' that excludes New York City is ridiculous...

Just because.
The comparison to the JFK speech is intentional and has been picked up by the media. But the connection doesn't hold up -- JFK effectively told the Greater Houston Ministerial Association, "We're together on the issues, but you need to get over my Catholicism." Giuliani effectively told the Houston Baptist College, "We're not together on the issues, but I'm strong on national security. 9/11, 9/11, 9/11."
Oops.

When I first saw the infamous "electrocution man" photo, I thought his arms look like a peace sign.
I recall a news report at the time that showed some Muslim women gasping at the image, saying he looked like Jesus on the cross.
IIRC, "electrocution man" was a devout Christian, praying the Lord's Prayer, among others, as he was tortured by his forgiven trespassers.
Very, very underreported aspect of that travesty - fucking corporate media. First, kill all the media bosses.

Gen. Batiste speaks out in a New York Times profile: “In the Army, you communicate up the chain of command, and I communicated vehemently with my senior commanders while I was in Iraq,” he said. Of his departure from the Army, he said: “It was the toughest decision of my life. I paced my quarters for days. I didn’t sleep for nights. But I was not willing to compromise my principles for one more minute.”
How many minutes are enough?..
Congressman McHenry's Campaign Aide Indicted
The CBS News Investigative Unit has learned a man who was a field coordinator in Congressman Patrick McHenry's (R-NC) 2004 campaign has been indicted for voter fraud in North Carolina.
The indictment charges that Michael Aaron Lay, 26, illegally cast his ballot in two 2004 Congressional primary run-offs in which McHenry was a candidate. The charges indicate that Lay voted in a district where it was not legal for him to vote.

Harry S Truman left office with a 23% approval rating. And he is now considered one of our greatest President. George Walker Bush will have the same trajectory and in 20 years, he will be spoken of with gratitude and respect by most historians and scholars.

Which is a great way to get comments, I suppose.
Did you see where he won his primary by 87 votes?
Indeed, he seems quite the asshole:
"...he was one of 20 members who voted against reinstating the House ethics rules in place after they were changed, allegedly in order to protect House Majority Leader Tom DeLay. In 2006, DeLay was quoted by the Washington Times as saying that McHenry could be "the next Tom DeLay." In 2006 he voted against renewal of the Voting Rights Act..."

Syphilis?
This article was discussed on On The Media this weekend (good program this week):
http://www.miamiherald.com/851/s...tory/
75279.html
...By this summer, The Toronto Star reports, no U.S. newspaper will have a staff correspondent in Canada.
So why should you care? (Snip)
...I think it also says something about the weirdly selective way in which our media deem certain parts of the world worthy of notice.
Here's an example. Some years ago -- the late '80s, early '90s -- the U.S. media became utterly smitten with Japan. The genius of Japanese industry, the gold-plated work ethic of Japanese workers, the sky-high savings rate of Japanese consumers -- all were subjects of innumerable newspaper reports, magazine articles, books and learned publications, many of them fawning, nearly all of them deeply impressed. Japan's customs, institutions and social norms were themselves newsworthy. Japan was a bristling economic rival and, consequently, it was a country that the United States needed to learn from.
And learn what exactly? Lessons of hard work, sacrifice, obedience, the virtues of putting up with less, the blessings of a less clamorous, less individualistic and more compliant society. Japan was admired for its scarcity of lawyers, abundance of patriotism and sturdy deference to authority. (That these blessings came with fewer civic rights, a sham democracy, a denial of war guilt and an emperor-worship most of us would consider pagan wasn't a key part of the message.)
The Japan example suggests that under certain circumstances U.S. media can take an interest in foreign societies, even when they aren't churning out what we would normally consider news. But the ideological tilt was unmistakable.
By contrast, our media have never mustered comparable interest in countries that, like ours, are developed and industrialized, but that have chosen a direction of social and public policy radically different from that of the Japanese juggernaut that we were being encouraged to admire. (Snip)
Ed Wasserman's point is that our corporate media, emphasis on the corporate part, is more interested in nations which undermine workers' rights, governments which do less for their societies--and simply do not well cover nations which treat their workers fairly, have good unions, health care, social security, such as Canada.
Iraq is broken and will never be fixed.
The Flight From Iraq.
Nir Rosen's story in the Sunday Times Magazine.
A snippet.
Many of Iraq’s neighbors initially welcomed the refugees. These countries were motivated by self-interest as well as by generosity. Certain political refugees, like Baathist officials, who were among the first to leave Iraq, had a political use in negotiations with the American-led occupation and the Iraqi government that succeeded it. And the well-to-do early refugees — those who could meet Jordan’s requirement of $100,000 in the bank to qualify for a residency permit, for example — brought much-needed capital. But the numbers and the welcome became unsustainable: Jordan and Egypt have made it very difficult for Iraqis to enter, and even Syria, with a long history of welcoming refugees, has passed regulations, like restrictions on the purchase of property and on access to free health care, that are intended to ensure that Iraqi refugees are only temporary residents. Iraq’s neighbors take the position that Iraqi refugees are not in fact refugees at all, because refugee status enables refugees to make claims on the host country. Iraq’s government has itself taken roughly the same position, because it cannot afford to acquiesce in the loss of its population or acknowledge its own failure to provide security. The United States and Great Britain, as the principal authors of the current war, have been urged by rights activists to shoulder responsibility for the war’s refugees — a responsibility they have so far evaded. The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the principal international body for refugee issues, succeeded in finding new homes for just 404 refugees in the first nine months of 2006 and says it hopes to resettle 20,000 by the end of 2007. That would be 1 percent of the current total. The agency’s fund-raising mark for 2007 is $60 million — for humanitarian relief rather than resettlement — of which it has so far raised only half. As with the war itself, the situation of the war’s refugees is at once dire and full of dangers for the region and the world — and no one seems to know how to resolve it.

The percentage points that fall away from Bush now consist of increasingly deluded, and in many cases psychotic, people. It takes increasing amounts of congnitive dissonance and psychic trauma for them to reconsider their positions. One wonders what the threshold point is between functional but willingly misled citizens that can truly change their minds and actually dysfunctional psychopaths whose only way out of this binding mindset is to retreat ever deeper into their respective personal psychic hells. Sadly, I think it's somewhere in the low 20s, which is a distressingly high number and a very depressing statement about America today.

From FDL, Won’t Get NAFTA’d Again
... This is extremely problematic and dishonest of the people negotiating and announcing the details. Pelosi, Rangel, Baucus, Bush, and the New Democrats knew that they could generate a huge raft of headlines on the trade deal without actually revealing the meat of the deal, so they did so. This is pretty much how the war in Iraq was sold, how the Bankruptcy bill was sold, and how NAFTA was sold. ....

Another snippet from the above linked article.
n some ways, despite the ethnic and religious motives of most of the Iraqi factions, the Iraqi civil war resembles internal conflicts in revolutionary China or Cambodia: there is a cleansing of the intelligentsia and of anyone else who stands out from the mass. The small Iraqi minorities — Christians and such sects as the Mandeans — are mostly gone. The intellectuals and artists are gone. Abu Ziyad, for example, is a 60-year-old artist, a Christian, who used to have his own gallery in Baghdad’s Karrada district. Soon after the Americans arrived in 2003, he began to be threatened for reproducing the human image, which is forbidden by Islamic law. His gallery was burned in August 2004, and the violence seemed to be growing — and growing out of control. Neighbors were killed, houses exploded, with little evident pattern. “You go shopping in Iraq and an explosion happens, and you see a man dead on his steering wheel,” Abu Ziyad told me when I met him and his wife in January in Damascus. “We got headaches from the smell of blood and explosions in Iraq,” his wife added. In October 2004 their house was set on fire as they slept, and they escaped only by climbing from their roof to their neighbor’s. On the front wall of their house someone had scrawled, “Collaborators.”
When karma comes to get us, it's going to be a motherfucker.

The percentage points that fall away from Bush now consist of increasingly deluded, and in many cases psychotic, people.
To a point. Remember that there are still a lot of ignorant racist dipshits who have spent the last decade on a constant diet of Limbaugh and Fox News, and for whom voting for a "lib" (i.e., anyone who isn't an ignorant racist dipshit) would be the ultimate emasculating humiliation. The fact that the Chimpster has gotten so radioactive that even THESE guys are starting to wake up is truly noteworthy.
Rangel, what the fuck?
He's been consistently bad on this issue. Not sure what his deal is.
The percentage points that fall away from Bush now consist of increasingly deluded, and in many cases psychotic, people.
Then there's Broder...
Frank Rich, "By my rough, conservative calculation — feel free to add — there have been corruption, incompetence, and contracting or cronyism scandals in these cabinet departments: Defense, Education, Justice, Interior, Homeland Security, Veterans Affairs, Health and Human Services, and Housing and Urban Development. I am not counting State, whose deputy secretary, a champion of abstinence-based international AIDS funding, resigned last month in a prostitution scandal, or the General Services Administration, now being investigated for possibly steering federal favors to Republican Congressional candidates in 2006. Or the Office of Management and Budget, whose chief procurement officer was sentenced to prison in the Abramoff fallout. I will, however, toss in a figure that reveals the sheer depth of the overall malfeasance: no fewer than four inspectors general, the official watchdogs charged with investigating improprieties in each department, are themselves under investigation simultaneously — an all-time record.
Wrongdoing of this magnitude does not happen by accident, but it is not necessarily instigated by a Watergate-style criminal conspiracy. When corruption is this pervasive, it can also be a byproduct of a governing philosophy. That’s the case here. That Bush-Rove style of governance, the common denominator of all the administration scandals, is the Frankenstein creature that stalks the G.O.P. as it faces 2008. It has become the Republican brand and will remain so, even after this president goes, until courageous Republicans disown it and eradicate it."
And where, Mr. Rich, will you find courageous Republicans to disown their own?
It takes increasing amounts of congnitive dissonance and psychic trauma for them to reconsider their position
Excellent point. The more we squeeze the faster they want to fall out of our fingers. But we have a righteous cause and a higher moral ground. Nice situation we find ourselves in.

That the vast majority of journalists killed — as well as the 38 media workers, which includes translators and the like — are Iraqi is significant. Like the Iraqi civilians, the local journalists there are the ones who are most affected by the violence that permeates their country.
Fourteen journalists died in 2003, the year of the invasion and the trajectory has been mostly pointing up in the number of deaths each year: 24 in 2004, 23 in 2005, 32 in 2006 and now 8 in 2007.

Take this you fucking zany commenting system! Ugg.
WASHINGTON, May. 11 (UPI) -- A new measure to fund the Iraq war has run into opposition from congressional Democrats who say it does not offer enough provisions to keep the United States away from Iraq's oil.
"We have to be concerned that the oil in Iraq belongs to the Iraqi people," said Rep. Lynn Woolsey, D-Calif. "It's absolutely that simple."
Woolsey is co-chair of the 72-member Congressional Progressive Caucus and 76-member Out of Iraq Caucus, a coalition from both chambers attempting to champion an exit strategy from Iraq. A bill to do so received 171 votes, including two Republicans, but was defeated Thursday prior to the supplemental passage. ...

I guess I get to keep my fifty quatloos. . . .
"Matthew 16
1The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
2He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
3And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?"

This song is just too funky.

Um, what?...
I am watching 48 Hours and they are looking into a murder. The jurors are saying that they thought the victim's other boy friend was guilty.
That was not what they were asked to decide.

Rorschach,
I was not insulting you. I saw that lady and was just blown away: she was, honestly, a blithering idiot. God, she was indescribably silly.
But since Peter Jackson decided not to give any of the elves but Legolas and Elrond much of a part, I guess it must be them. . . . (My main disagreement in casting is with the actor who played Glorfindal - nothing at all like I had him pictured in my mind)
Robert Wexler, D-Fla., finally loses his temper and starts hollering: "You did not select Iglesias for the list." (No). "Did Sampson select him?" (No). "Did Comey?" (No.) "Did McNulty?" (No.) Did the president? (No.) "Did the vice president? (No)." Then Steve Cohen, D-Tenn., follows up with one of the best queries of the day: "If you don't know who put Iglesias on the list, how do you know the president or the vice president didn't?"
Long silence. Pause. "They wouldn't do that," hems Gonzales. "The White House has said publicly that it was not involved in adding or deleting people from the list.".
Jesus fuck, what an exasperating jerk ......
Over at freeperville, someone has pointed out that the tip-off to CBS came from a republican, so the scandal represents republican-on-republican crime.
Does that make the crime okay, or the reporting of it?
I am so confused.
Um, what?...

You mean, like, how they cast nobody as Glorfindal?
I missed this story about WH spin about the "commander guy" remark:
WASHINGTON, May 4 (Reuters) - The White House is trying to clarify something: President George W. Bush is "a commander guy" but not "the commander guy."
-----
Bush, whose approval ratings have dropped as the Iraq war moves into its fifth year, contended that he had the authority to send the troops.
"The question is, who ought to make that decision? The Congress or the commanders? And as you know, my position is clear -- I'm a commander guy," Bush said.
The official stenographer of the event recorded Bush as having said he was "the commander guy" and some reporters did as well.
Bad stenographers, all of you!
Now I get it--W sides with military officers he hasn't cashiered, instead of trusting politicians like himself. Couldn't be clearer.
Nobody has this on tape?
According to figures from the Ministry of Human Rights,the number of Iraqis detained nationwide from the end of January until the end of March—a period that includes the first six weeks of the new Baghdad security plan—jumped by approximately 7,000 to 37,641. U.S. forces swept up 2,000 prisoners a month in March and April, almost twice the average from the second half of last year. Iraqi arrest numbers are roughly equivalent. Some of these detainees are falling into a kind of legal limbo, held for weeks without a hearing. Others are allegedly suffering even worse fates. The top U.S. commander in Iraq, Gen. David Petraeus, is worried enough that he issued an open letter to American advisers paired up with Iraqi units last week: "It is very important that we never turn a blind eye to abuses, thinking that what Iraqis do with their own detainees is 'Iraqi business'."
In fact "Hot Fuzz" made us think about how much we hate American comedies lately. The stupidity is abundant.

wait, that's not rite.
goodnite, and good luck, maybe..

Goddamn it.
I've used violence only very rarely (and largely in beating the crap out of homophobes when I was managing the gay bar in the Quarter), but I really would like to punch him in his stupid lying face right now.....
I'm going to have to agree with K&Y on this one.
Fucking brilliantly funny film.

Be careful. NTodd will go all bear penis gandhi over you.
NTodd,
Wasn't that Glorfindal who got killed at Helm's Deep? If not, my bad. IIRC, in the book he was the one who came and got Frodo as they were running from Weathertop being chased by the Nine. I thought that he showed up later at Helm's Deep in the book.
BTW, Leah Kelley responds to the General in his comments:
Hello General,
I have watched your blog entries and the subsequent comments concerning my web site with no small amount of humor over the past couple of days, but now I truly feel I have to step in and set the record straight. My husband is NOT a monster. He is a loving husband and companion who treats me like a queen.
In some CDD marriages, the husband brought the concept to the wife, but in most, I daresay, the wife was the one who approached her husband with the need for discipline. I was one of the latter. My husband is a perfect gentleman and was raised never to hurt a woman, but he understood the need in me for discipline and agreed to implement CDD AT MY REQUEST.
Furthermore, he has never disciplined me when I was in pain or not feeling well from my fibromyalgia, and he has never held me accountable for housework or anything else during those occasions. He is very understanding and supportive about my disease.
The maintenance session described in the blog you quoted happened after the exacerbation resolved, and the problems with the housework and homeschooling had nothing to do with the disease process and everything to do with my being distracted by the less important things in life. Hence, the refocusing.
You may laugh and poke at me as you will. I have been doing this long enough to develop a rather warped sense of humor, and I am well aware that folks outside of domestic discipline circles do not understand those of us who CHOOSE it as a lifestyle. However, I ask that you please leave my husband out of it.
Blessings,
Leah Kelley

Except that Hot Fuzz is written and directed by Brits and not Americans, of course......
You mean, like, how they cast nobody as Glorfindal?
What about Glorfindel?
That role was essentially played by Liv Tyler.
Leah Kelly needs help.
Okay, k&y, I get your point now.
I claim fatigue as a mitigating factor in my stupidity.
Wasn't that Glorfindal who got killed at Helm's Deep?
No, Haldir. Arwen basically absorbed Glorfindal's role.
You mean, like, how they cast nobody as Glorfindal?
Did you completely miss Liv Tyler? Well, she didn't play Glorfindel; but she did play his part.

Except nothing. That's what we're saying. We just called it the best comedy of 2007 and quoted it thrice.

That Faith Evans sounded just like Donna Summer. I was back in the disco age. My hair was in a big red perm and I was skinny. Scared me there for a bit.

If Haloscan is going to do this all night....
Comment lost, damn.
Yeah, I know that Glorfindel was the one who rescued Frodo on the flight from Weathertop in the book but I thought he showed up later at Helm's Deep. I assumed the actor played the lead elf who was killed was supposed to be him.
Have you not seen it yet? You gotta see it. Miriam would totally let you make out with her if you took her to see Hot Fuzz.

I wonder what they're doing RIGHT NOW.
Glorfindel does not appear in the Peter Jackson film trilogy until the coronation at the end.
I am off to bed. This commenting is too confusing. First it is not there. Then it is. Then it is not. Too confusing for a drugged mind.
Weren't the sons of Elrond sent to Helm's Deep in the book? (been a while but I seem to remember that)
Blessings,

Let the beatings commence .....

No Elves at Helm's Deep in the books. Anyway that was Haldir of Lorien in the films -- one of the Sylvan folk, not of the Noldor who remembered Valinor.
Did you completely miss Liv Tyler?
Sigh.
Weren't the sons of Elrond sent to Helm's Deep in the book? (been a while but I seem to remember that)
Liv Tyler ate them too.

IT'S STICKY!

What a very strange thing to say...
And anyway, she is in Germany..
When we comment: (1) cntrl-a, right click & "copy" just to be safe; (2) put a bar of nonsense (here "OGLETHORPE") at the bottom; (3) if you must repost, quickly and mindlessly modify the nonsense bar so as to avoid Haoscan's retarded double post filter. Do not re-"copy" the modifications or you risk a real doubling rejection.

Weren't the sons of Elrond sent to Helm's Deep in the book?
They were sent to military school in Alaska after they fucked up on their Gollum assignment.
JEEVAN, YOU SCABROUS GIT, WHERE ARE YOU???

Ellodan and Ellrohir rode with the Grey Company from the North, bearing with them the Star of Elendil and the mithril-wrought White Tree standard, fruit of the labor of Arwen Evenstar.
But that was *after* the battle of Helm's Deep. They did tarry there before assaying the Paths of the Dead, though.
Fucking haloscum.
That is all.
I know I've already said it, bitch, but you didn't post it.

Whoops, typo.

The crowds at Costco delayed them.

Why bother when you put the entire comment is nonsense?
