A good response to Pat Toomey's defense of the Club for Growth's RINO hunting, the CFG has generally been good, but they could be better.

Like spreadsheets?  Sure, we all do.  This one lets you compare yourself to Obama, Hillary and McCain on the issues.

EPIC FAIL

The housing bailout, not good for the middle class. 

If you're a moron and have a Facebook profile, Jen's looking for you.

Oktoberfest will see its highest beer prices evah due to grain price spikes.

Seriously, what is with Bashar Assad's lack of a chin?

Hmm...maybe we could use this to leverage for a release of that Yemeni journalist and a recapture of the Cole plotters.

More fun with weird USB crap.

I'm glad I'm not the only one getting tired of the incessant whining and populist demagoguery about oil prices.  Yeah, I'm looking at you, Bill O'Reilly.

The latest Ask a Moron.

The Minnesota Star Tribune still doesn't get it.

Some are more equal than others.

This won't help Obama, won't sink him, but it doesn't help.

The Jewish Council for the Aging gave Phil Donahue an award and an hour to rant about the Bushitler and America. Unsurprisingly, Attila(who is Jewish) isn't impressed, and says there are plenty of other worthy Jewish charities to support.

California:  The EPIC FAIL State.  Speaking of the Soviet of California... a two dollar tax hike on a six of beer?

Fun 'shop from Slublog.

Yeah, where is the condemnation from Reuters over Hezbollah's beating of their photographers?  If the Israelis had done it, the screeching would shatter glass.

FAIL  This one is seriously funny.

Ewwwww.

Why the death penalty exists.

No, I haven't posted that music video.  Hostages have your latest dose of giant boobage, and the finalist and winners for their list of Worst Sex Toy Names, and open the firing salvo in the Boob War.  Caliban fires back with a video from some guy named Rodney Carrington (comedian?), which is definitely Not Safe for Work.  I have to give round one to The Hostages, because my Yankee ears bleed when they hear country.

Canadian censorship campaign continues.

Wow, I'm impressed we had someone take such a firm line with China.  I'm sure the State Department will quickly get on its hands and knees and beg forgiveness for this.

CT has a great post on those who actively want to see the US lose and suffer in Iraq.

Malor is done with law school!

The thugs that run Myanmar seized the UN's first shipment of emergency aid food and supplies, which means UN Aid shipments are now suspended until the government allows the UN to do its relief work or the UN capitulates.  They've also rejected US aid.

Oh, shit!

Seems that a lot of people are opting to support individual candidates over just giving funds to the GOP.  I've already got a small list of downticket people that might be good to support, hopefully the bigger sites will take the same idea and run with it.

1 That candidate comparison spreadsheet was well-intentioned, but a lot of the questions were vague and didn't really get down to the underlying discriminators among positions. In any case, I matched McCain on 23 points, Obama on 12, and Clinton on 9. Since there are 52 questions, I'm not really happy with any of the candidates.

But I already knew that.

2 Curse you Hostages! I shall up the ante. Caliban means business.

3 Heh, can't wait to see next Friday...

4 Yep, Rodney Carrington is a comedian and he's a very funny one, at that.  His musical stuff is hilarious.

5 That's probably the last of the USB stuff for a while.  It got too strange by the time I ran across the -erm- adult stuff.  I'm no prude but some of it was truly bizarre.  If you've seen the film 8mm... it was starting to get surreal like that (HATED that film).

If anyone has any more ideas for "weird and unusual" lineups, let me know.  That includes people, activities, and stuff.  Animals, too. 

I'm constantly on the lookout for more "Mountain Men Anonymous" type stuff.

6 Yeah, the lyrics were funneh, but the music made my ears bleed.

7 It got too strange by the time I ran across the -erm- adult stuff.  I'm no prude but some of it was truly bizarre.

Rule 34 says I don't really want to know.

8 For years he welcomed us into the dimension of imagination which we called The Twilight Zone,Asics shoes but now audiences will look into a different dimension in the form of a biopic about the supernatural series creator and narrator Asics running shoes Rod Serling.

Witch Out: The Vampire Diaries Begins Casting for Bonnie’s Mother

Every since Grams (Jasmine Guy) died, we’ve been waiting for Mystic Falls Child and Family Services to come and takeBonnie(Kat Graham) to a foster home. We knowThe Vampire Diaries’ teen witch has a father, but we’ve never seen him. Since we’ve met so many of the other characters’ parents, we were starting to get suspicious that Bon-Bon was an emancipated minor, grifting her way through high school. Then she went on a summer-long road trip with her pops, so we guess she’s not really Oliver Twist-ing it.

In fact, it seems Bonnie’s mysterious mother will be en route to Mystic Falls soon. (As you may recall, she left her husband and Bonnie many years ago.)TV Fanatic reports that casting has begun for Mrs. Bennett. Here’s the description: 38-44, African-American, a beautiful but troubled woman who is burdened by the secrets of her past that led her to abandon her daughter. As determined and fiery as any Bennett woman.

The parents ofTVDcharacters haven’t always turned out to be forces of good in their children’s lives (we’re looking at you, Bill), but here’s hoping Bonnie’s mom uses her powers for good instead of torture.

Blu-ray Review:Bones - The Complete Sixth Season

Author:JeromeWetzelTV—Published:Oct 23, 2011 at 2:31 pm0 comments

Now out on Blu-ray and DVD is Bones The Complete Sixth Season . Year six begins with "The Mastodon in the Room," in which the team comes back together, after many months apart, to help Cam (Tamara Taylor). The absence has made Brennan (Emily Deschanel) realize that she wants to be with Booth (David Boreanaz), but in the interim, he has moved on with Hannah (Katheryn Winnick). Similarly, Daisy (Carlo Gallo) tries to reconnect with a jilted Sweets (John Francis Daley). http://www.izdvd.com/goods-744-bones-season-16-dvd-boxset.html Bones season 1-6 DVD boxset back together again, they all understand they are strongest together, no matter what personal woes plague them.

The sixth season of http://www.izdvd.com/goods-744-bones-season-16-dvd-boxset.html Bones DVD is an excellent one, with many fun highlights. In "The Maggots in the Meathead," Brennan visits the Jersey Shore to interact with Guidos, a cultural group she is very interested in. "The Body and the Bounty" finds Professor Bunsen Jude, The Science Dude (David Alan Grier), coming to the Jeffersonian to shoot an episode of his popular series. "The Bikini in the Soup" is an amusing Valentine's Day case. Many pairs of dismembered feet wash to shore in "The Feet on the Beach." Also, Angela (Michaela Conlin) and Hodgins (T.J. Thyne) welcome a child.

But season six isn't all fun and games. "The Bullet in the Brain" brings with it the assassination of longtime foe, the Gravedigger (Deirdre Lovejoy), and kicks off Booth's hunting down of the shooter, http://www.izdvd.com/goods-744-bones-season-16-dvd-boxset.html Bones DVD set former friend Jacob (Arnold Vosloo). Even worse, before Booth can stop Jacob, the bad guy kills beloved squintern Vincent Nigel Murray (Ryan Cartwright), a tragedy that hits the entire team pretty hard. In the aftermath, taking comfort in Booth's arms, Brennan ends up (SHOCKER!) pregnant with his baby, a fact that will surely lead to all new chemistry between the leads in season seven.

Among the other milestones in The CompleteSixthSeason ,http://www.izdvd.com/goods-744-bones-season-16-dvd-boxset.html Bones DVD Boxset presents a backdoor pilot in "The Finder," introducing a couple of characters who will be headlining their own spinoff later this year or early next. It's a decent episode with an interesting concept. Because Bones will be doing a reduced number of episodes to accommodate Deschanel's real-life pregnancy in season seven, several Bones characters will appear in episodes of The Finder, further tying the two together. As such, this is a very important episode, in the universe of the series.
