RANT: i am obese and on a phone

Some people's facelifts are more successful than others. Joan Rivers and Kenny Rogers look horrendous. Their mouths can move but the rest is like frozen plastic.

Some of these celebrities just can't grow old gracefully.

They get talked into and/or are addicted to plastic surgery. Anything but an awful common sense lifestyle like exercise and a good diet.

Can't have that.

Rivers looks like a mannequin who's been left out in the desert sun too long.

Rogers reminds me of that weird alien race, the Son'a, in Star Trek: Insurrection.

Hell, the Borg Queen has better facelifts than either Rivers or Rogers.

I'm pretty sure with a couple of drinks I would adapt to service her...

My father's Washington to Istanbul flight left the States around 2300 EST yesterday and arrived in Istanbul about an hour ago.

He is currently about 5000+ miles away.

Therefore, it is officially a good day.

My wife and I started watching SOA. Bought season 1 on Blue Ray. Got to disc 2, didn't work. Disc 3 didn't either. Returned and exchanged for another copy of season 1. Same f'ing problem. Borrowed from friend, except it's on DVDs. Works fine. I think something is wrong with my Blue Ray player.

On a brighter note, the show is pretty fucking awesome. We are up to episode 11 of season 1. Will probably finish tonight.

I was just curious about how you felt the unity was measured. My point about the 60s is really not about the start of the war (which was 1955), but the peak of our involvement in 1968 and how we all came together to put a stop to the insane amount of deaths.

VN was highly polarized, with the polarizations shifting over time. The government hawks and a lot of the general public were aligned in early stages, seeing the hippie movement and non-related left-leaning factions as a threat to America's ethical fabric. The hippies themselves were ineffective (and a much smaller entity than people realize) but their goals shared some commonality w/ other anti-draft student groups. '68's Tet Offensive was the turnaround of general public opinion back here -- that the situation was futile. A few years later, Kent State (and perhaps the My Lai revelations) really hammered home the senselessness. The divisions changed with more of the "anti-Nixon's govt" crowd gaining traction. Though to that end, Nixon eventually sunk himself w/ non-VN stuff. Not sure "we" were ever really all together to do something, other than "we" eventually agreed more and more that the war had gone too long, for too little benefit.

The immediate post-9/11 events, on the other hand, were an instantaneous rush of "America-ness".

I just enlisted because I figured a degree in graphic design wouldn't get me very far and I just wanted money in the bank.

That was pretty smart -- during that time period, everybody and their dog (who could at least open Photoshop) glutted the industry for those who had already been in it awhile. :/

This outgoing congress was the Workout Programs section equivalent of the American congresses.

A giant wad of clusterfuckage.

Here's to the 113th being less batshit crazy.

I know, but ... someone went there. (looks at Lencho)

lol, no I didn't.

What do you call a Mexican Tony Romo?

This joke would play better if Romo wasn't half Mex himself.

Might be the best show on TV. It's either that or Justified. Still need to see seasons 1-3, myself.

[ThickAsABrick]

lol, no I didn't.

I was finally able to neg Frep again.

It's going to be my favorite of all time if it keeps this up.

I feel 2013 is going to be another great year for you.

9/11

[Ctrainer]

No.

But I thought he just got out?

Or are you just being contrary for the sake of being contrary?

[Hishiad]

Saw 1-3 and am in need of catching up with 4 & 5 still. Season 2 wasn't as good...felt season 1 was the best that I have seen.


Having seen all 3 seasons of Justified comparing the 2 for me Justified is the better show.

Shouples can clarify, but I believe he was explaining why he originally enlisted, not meaning to suggest that he had recently re-enlisted. I can see how his use of "just" caused confusion, but that's my interpretation.

I understand now..

I like SOA because Sutter makes no bones about what it is he's doing.

1. Entertain
2. Kill people and blow sh*t up in creative ways
3. ???
4. Profit

Ron Perlman's character is the best character on the show.
