this in combination with the "hamster" comment before... very amusing. Imagining a bipartisan hamster dance... and vomiting.

I had the dried apricots this morning again, and so far everything is A-OK!
I also had the organic cranberry juice that I tried yesterday, in case that might be responsible also.
Must have been a freak occurence.
More updates as developments warrant.
Stevo, in order for the "process of elimination" to work, you have to, you know, eliminate some of the items. Of course, if you are looking for the process of "bowel elimination" I guess your method will work just fine.
well, we are always being accused of being libertines, so maybe the statement that nothing says libertarian like a plunger up the ass could be true, in a sense
as the sage Obi-Wan Kenobi once pontificated, many things in life we hold to be true are true from a certain point of view

House warming is a myth put forward by environmentalists who hate corporations. Well, house warming may be real, but it's not man-made. I don't buy into the 'turning up the thermostat' theory.

This mental incapacity doesn't just make you wrong, Eric. It makes you wrong in a particularly anti-libertarian, statist manner. I've never used the term "statist" other than sarcasticly before, Eric, but it's simply unavoidable in your case. You openly stated that your fervently-held position on the most pressing issue facing our country is that one must support a giant, failed big government program, or one is actively working in favor of the problem that program was meant to solve.
You cannot be a libertarian and believe that people only matter in terms of their support for ventures carried out by the state.
Duh.
Goddamn, that's vitriol like I've never seen.

Well,
He has, on numerous occasions, stated that he "understands libertarianism" and just doesn't believe it is the correct path. I suppose he has proven his point in a most dramatic way.
Yeah, Joe is usually awesome on the Dondero threads. I think his thought process is something like, "I don't agree with libertarianism, but it's interesting and is an important perspective on public policy. These people are worth listening to, even if I think they're at least partly wrong most of the time. Dondero, on the other hand, is a total fuckface asshat who is trying to take advantage of a potentially important political movement to further his random and stupid cause-of-the-week. And he's a moron."
Whatever the thought process, the results are awesome. "Dondero, I talk with libertarians. I know libertarians. Libertarians are friends of mine. Dondero, you're no libertarian."

Watch him forget it next time he finds it convenient to set up a strawman or paint with a broad brush, :) but yeah, the guy does Get It to some extent.
To some extent, joe "gets it", because he is a "liberal" in the American tradition.
The American Liberal Tradition is still heavily steeped in Individualism. Perhaps not enough to satisfy the libertarian but nonetheless much more so than most of what is found in the Old World.
Thus when push comes to shove, joe has more in common with American libertarians and even conservatives than he does with European leftists who lean much more heavily in a collectivist direction.
For the same reason American conservatives often have a hard time relating to Old World conservatives who's beliefs tend to be firmly guided by tradition and a belief that behavior must be entirely directed to that which is best for the common good.

Sounds like sex that, due to the fact that a guy's wearing a forehead prosthesis and shouting things like "Heghlu'meH QaQ jajvam", is extremely unlikely to happen. At least, not without a substantial down payment.

Klingon mating rituals involve limited domination and combative attitudes. Par'machpu' (singular par'mach) are chosen mates for dedicated recreational sexual congress, equivalent to fiancées among Terran humans. Lieutenant Worf, when questioned in this area of Klingon lore, said (perhaps obliquely) that females roar loudly, hurl heavy objects, and claw at their desired mate – the males, conversely, read love poetry aloud and duck a lot.[4]
Klingon females reportedly search for their own partners, whom they deem worthy of copulation. Normally this has to be a male of great strength, valour or who at least possess great courage. The mating process can be a very wild and sometimes violent affair. When Worf was questioned by Guinan while still onboard the Enterprise-D, as to why he had not taken a par'mach, the Klingon said he was only chaste in concern for the "safety" of his fellow female crewmates. Guinan joked that many would find a male Klingon "tame," producing a rare laugh of pleasure from Worf.[5] Later aboard Station Deep Space Nine, Worf engaged in romance with Jadzia Dax, a Trill with deep connections to Klingon society. Their first night of relations produced a surprising number of contusions and broken limbs for Doctor Bashir to treat. As they arrived, the Klingon woman Lady Grilka was already in the infirmary with a very injured Quark in tow. Bashir stated that "he did not want to know what had happened."

Don't forget that there are women who do the same thing - and that's just in the case of the straight ones. :)
I'm aware of the 1000 to 1 ratio. That's why I said "unlikely" rather than impossible. :) I wonder how long it takes before a girl getting the sort of attention that a female trekkie at a convention gets, decides that she's "too good for these geeks"?

bean paste is awesome in certain applications. same with sesame. (and from sesame comes that most noble of falafel toppings, tahini)
also i've had vegan donuts and cupcakes that would put your brain to shame.
i've never understood krispy kreme myself, it's just that shit you buy in penn station if you're drunk and from long island and suicide is no longer an option.
tonight's dinner, btw, is tofu and string beans in a chili paste sauce and one of those awesome wild rice blends that seems to have everything but rice in it.
also yeah i would like to audition for the food bigot show.
that fucking gorky park song by uh scorpions or something. someone was blasting it from their suv this morning (i guess they were advertising that they'd been raised in a garbage dump by raccoons and were looking for someone with a similar background to share activities, poss. romance) and now my brain is fucked.
God damn it dhex, that's the second time I've almost fallen out of my desk chair laughing. Stop being so fucking funny, asshole.

"Well, let's face it - our society's environmental problems are among the most damning evidence that the libertarian philosophy of "everybody does what they want, and it will all magically work out" doesn't fly in the real world."
Well, the libertarian charter originally said "everybody does what DanT wants and it will all magically work out," but then we found out you didn't like us.

Yeah, that was soo good.
I don't have anything against the song personally (full disclosure: my parents did recently find a nest of baby racoons in their garage which, at times, does resemble a garbage dump), but dhex's comment was so funny it made me reconsider the artistic merit of said song.
dhex is gifted.

Re: ZOMG! You can live with Dave Weigel and Julian Sanchez
You know, if Weigel were smart he'd take the ad off of his UVA community board and repost it, in a slightly different form, on the Reason community board. Like so: ROOMMATE WANTED to share townhouse with me and Kerry Howley. $2,700 per month."
Some Reasonoid will gladly pay that much for the chance to be Ms. Howley's roommate, Howley and Weigel get to live rent-free, and the extra money can be given to Kerry each month, so she can buy an extra-strong bedroom lock and some debugging equipment to make sure her new roommate hasn't installed a hidden camera in her room.
Good idea Jennifer. Except you forgot one part. Weig"a"l and Howley would have to put up with a lot of broken glass. Call it an even $3000.

Moynihan slowly set down his monacle and glass of Merlot. "Oh ho ho, come hither, Winston, see what these charlatans have penned today." Winston, a rare snow owl, perched upon his wrist and stared unblinkingly at the computer screen. "What can this Groening fellow know about living?" Winston hopped to the desk and turned the page of an open Proust book. "Ah, Proust, if only you had written more."

Kathy Bates, I could understand. She has talent.
But I think we know the woman we all want is Jodie Foster.
This is a personal problem. There are very few personal problems that cannot be solved through a suitable use of high explosives. This is not one of those exceptions.

dhex: strictly pre-View Rosie O'Donnell. Anyway, there's always room for ball gags during the act of lovemaking.
I'd get testicles surgically attached so I could drag them over broken glass to sniff Jodie Foster's panties.

Re: Quotable Quotes Part the Third
I think I would rather just tie O'Donnell to a chair and make her watch me have round-robin Klingon sex with certain select other past and present members of The View on top of her favorite piece of home furniture -- preferably a fragile antique family heirloom.
Jodie Foster is nice.

Re: Quotable Quotes Part the Third
Sounds like sex that, due to the fact that a guy's wearing a forehead prosthesis and shouting things like "Heghlu'meH QaQ jajvam", is extremely unlikely to happen. At least, not without a substantial down payment.
Re: Quotable Quotes Part the Third
Well, the phrase just sorta popped into my head, but I picture it as resembling a kind of coed WWF wrestling, only without folding chairs.

I don't have anything against the song personally (full disclosure: my parents did recently find a nest of baby racoons in their garage which, at times, does resemble a garbage dump), but dhex's comment was so funny it made me reconsider the artistic merit of said song.
