A supermarket here (sainsburys) screwed up over Xmas and offered a
stupid deal on delivered stuff. I got two bottles of Talisker and two
bottles of 12yr old Balvenie Double-Barrel, plus a litre of JD for
something less than $50.
And a very merry Xmas and New year to all!

Generally speaking, the federal government strikes me as rather
disorganized and incompetent. Running a "puppet government" strikes me
as beyond its powers.

I believe that the earliest rock 'n' roll greats, like Chuck Berry, Sam
Cooke, Fats Domino and Little Richard, predated the white artists, with
perhaps the exception of Jumpin' Jerry Lee.

I don't think the U.S. is capable of running a "puppet government". The
phrase doesn't mean anything anyway, except that someone who learned
propaganda techniques from the Soviets doesn't like them.
Saddam talked to the CIA once, so he was a "puppet", so the former
government of Iraq was a "puppet government" anyway. So it's not like
the invasion changed _that_.
I wonder if you took antipsychotics whether it would affect your
politics.

well, as governer, Bush actually executed such people, IIRC.
and in the context i was using it, Saddam was a virtual retard.
i would never insult actually mentally challenged people.
just as i would not insult actual idiots.
i use words as metaphors, not for any undeserved ugliness.

The comments are better than some of the words on the list.
What a way to keep your state university in the news ...

I think you're a bit off-base in this, VBG. Last time I heard from
James, he said "I feel GOOOD!" And I'm betting, where he is
right now -- he does.
When you see Geno, tell him Happy New Year. Those of us in
the Great White (brown actually and gonna be 10C tomorrow, you
figure it out in F if you want, but we've had May days that were
cooler) North may not agree with him on much of anything he
burps up in pixels, but we still wish his elderly bones and aging
brain well, in the coming year.
