Sir Stewart always looks ornery to me. Happy birthday Jules. I hope you enjoyed a wonderful day!

Waxing poetic?

Why do you hate William Carlos Williams? Williams' most anthologized poem is "The Red Wheelbarrow", considered an example of the Imagist movement's style and principles (see also "This Is Just To Say"). However, Williams, like his associate Ezra Pound, had long ago rejected the imagist movement by the time this poem was published as part of Spring and All in 1923. Williams is more strongly associated with the American Modernist movement in literature, and saw his poetic project as a distinctly American one; he sought to renew language through the fresh, raw idiom that grew out of America's c

Republicans have historically picked lyrically inappropriate songs for their conventions.

Yeah you'll have that.

What's your damage, dude? That's like saying reggae didn't grow out of ska.

We're taking an historical perspective here. Subjective names for music that occurs along and morphs out of a timeline. What precedes has much to do with the ethos of a particular ("labeled" ) genre of music (whether incorporating or rejecting).

Yes. Before there was punk there could be no alt country.

Thank you Jesus.

That was tremendous.

Beautiful tune. I am so envious. I sure hope he does a bit of this in the states.

Where the hell did you have dinner, a juke joint in the Ozarks? (Oh and, mmmm.)

Surely you're not suggesting she is overcompensating for a wee penis too?

You back from off the shelf.. Hope you have a wonderful day! See you soon.

You're obfuscating.

Which is in spite of your irony precisely the point. Because of our incredible need we are literally over a barrel with our asses in the air. History has shown that special friends of Republicans have their fists greased and ready to give it a go.

Nothing of course. Halliburton was profiteering and therein lies the difference. http://www.corpwatch.org/section.php?id=176 http://www.businesspundit.com/the-25-most-...war-profiteers/

It's relatively short sighted, but it is going to be outrageously profitable.

Seriously? Ever hear of Halliburton? Christ, special interest groups will line the Republican party's pockets with mink. How much is a barrel of oil now? We'll be dope sick for it when we can't afford to heat our houses and a box of cereal costs 10 bucks.

While all you happy liberals are snickering about teenage pregnancy and inexperienced potential VPs with shapely legs, the Republicans are going to be laughing all the way to the bank.

Happy birthday my wonderful friend. I honestly don't know how I would get along without you. I hope you have the best birthday ever!

What's your over under on his karmic footprint?
