He was certainly crazy enough to TRY to fake his own death, but that would be harder to hide than the JFK conspiracy, the New World Order conspiracy and the circus peanuts conspiracy combined.

Ah well. We do not love the Mets because they succeed, we love the Mets because the Yankees, their power and domination, leave us cold.

Okay. Try and follow me, Shel. This thing has to do with a conspiracy that originated in Central America... ...against the economy of the United States. We got wind of it nine months ago, when they robbed the German Mint. Well, actually, they robbed the English Mint, then the German Mint. And then the Swiss Mint. And they never took any money. - Well, who did this? - It's a Latin American syndicate. They only took the plates. What you have to understand is that we have information. - The agency has sources... - CIA? You're goddamn right, buddy, the CIA.

Brazil definitely played the Red Baron to our Snoopy.

Well, it was referenced by the Beastie Boys: "If I played guitar I'd be Jimmy Page The girlies I like are underage (Check it!)"

I doubt many discussions of MJ will omit the fact he was a weirdo of the first magnitude; few discussions of Wagner these days fail to bring up his anti-Semitism. Ike Turner? Even he got props when he died. It could be that the art touches many lives, but the abuse few, albeit profoundly negatively, and that's why it is glossed over or forgiven by many.

Since child molestation was an integral part of ancient Greek culture, does that make everything the ancient Greeks accomplished tainted?

That's a trick question! Cy Young invented pitching.

It took a good long while, buy eventually they started performing Wagner's music in Israel. Which to me would tend to indicate that eventually, art triumphs over the wickedness and depravity of the artist. Michael Jackson was one of those people who was powerful enough to be able to be completely crazy and not get intervened upon. Maybe we should be grateful that he stopped at molestation; he was in numerous situations where he could have easily killed one of those kids (well, maybe not, he did not seem the halest and heartiest of dudes). The kids' parents were either epically bad judges of ch

Well said.

With apologies to Sunken Mountain, WOOOOO-HOOOOO!

Letter we got this week. A double switch From what I read in the papers New York has its fiscal back to the wall and is looking to find a way out. I may have a solution to the problem that requires only two easy steps. First — there has been, from time to time, talk of making the New York City metropolitan area its own separate city-state. If the powers that be divide the state half-in-two (Southern expression) it would automatically cut the budget deficit for each of the newly formed states in half also. Second — the state of Texas has been talking of late about once

Why don't we just ban driving while driving?

Other graffiti I have witnessed (some as it was made): "REO SPEEDWAGON SUCKS MOOSE COCK! BLACK SABBATH #1" - Science class blackboard, Haviland Junior High School, 1981. "Jocks suck" - Press box door, F.D. Roosevelt High School, 1982. "Styx Sux Dyx and Cox." - Boys locker room bench, F.D. Roosevelt High School, 1982. "The evil scum of society lives here." - Locker, F.D. Roosevelt High School, 1982.

I less-than-three Fareed Zakaria! http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/meast/06/19/zakaria.iran.elections/index.html CNN: What should the United States do? Zakaria: I would say continue what we have been doing. By reaching out to Iran, publicly and repeatedly, President Obama has made it extremely difficult for the Iranian regime to claim that they are battling an aggressive America bent on attacking Iran. In his inaugural address, his New Year greetings, and his Cairo speech, there is a consistent effort to convey respect and friendship for Iranians. That is why Khamenei reacted so angrily t

Military intervention in Iran is not going to happen and I am not sure economic sanctions would help in this case. Like the people of Eastern Europe in 1989, the Iranians are going to have to do this one on their own, and if enough Iranians want it, it will happen.
