It goes without saying Josh that if this thread does not reach the 500 post landmark I will be extremely humiliated. It is for this reason that I do not mind the somewhat divergent paths that this thread has taken over the last 272 posts. If it helps this thread to reach the 500 post plateau then I am all for it. However, it is important to "reel it in" every now and again just to remind us all of what this thread is really all about. Thank you for understanding. Now back to my appreciation thread....

sirmoonie Whack bang piss. Moogie moogie ding ding.

Don't be fucking with a Compton nigger.
11th April 2007 11:31 PM
sirmoonie So you see, way back then, uh, Sicilians were like, uh, wops from Northern Italy. Ah, they all had blonde hair and blue eyes, but, uh, well, then the Moors moved in there, and uh, well, they changed the whole country. They did so much fuckin' with Sicilian women, huh? That they changed the whole bloodline forever. That's why blonde hair and blue eyes became black hair and dark skin. You know, it's absolutely amazing to me to think that to this day, hundreds of years later, that, uh, that Sicilians still carry that nigger gene. Now this...
11th April 2007 11:35 PM
sirmoonie Hey. Yeah. And, and your great-great-great-great grandmother fucked a nigger, ho, ho, yeah, and she had a half-nigger kid... now, if that's a fact, tell me, am I lying? 'Cause you, you're part eggplant.

Thank you Bill Perks! My conservatism is the result of growing up with a very liberal mother who at one time dated Walter Mondale! No kidding they went to University of Minnesota together. Fortunatly she found him a complete bore and ended up marrying my father who also attended UM. He became a full bird in the Air Force and she became a drug and alcohol psychologist! He was a hard core conservative(most in the military are). She was a flaming liberal. I loved my mother dearly and have no problem admitting to being a mama's boy,but her politics,like many liberals,were very Polly Anna,Pie-in-the-sky,and boardered on Socialism. I still have many liberal friends,but I don't base friendships on politics anyway. Although some of my liberal friends do strangly enough!

Thanks. It's true we are very prolific and virile Stones fans. It's not only that we are good at life but we create life. We are A-Listers of fertilization. Not a bad thing to be.

Riffy is a great, great man.

I know. Sorry! And not to take things further away from the appreciation we all have for you, but you've just got to see George Will's column today on Global Warming. This is the best one yet.


GLOBAL-DE-GOOP
FALLACIES OF WAR ON WARMING
George F. Will
April 12, 2007 -- IN a campaign without peace time precedent, the media- entertainment-environ mental complex is warning about global warming. Never, other than during the two world wars, has there been such a concerted effort by opinion-forming institutions to indoctrinate Americans, 83 percent of whom now call global warming a "serious problem." Indoctrination is supposed to be a predicate for action commensurate with professions of seriousness.
For example, Democrats could demand that the president send the Kyoto Protocol to the Senate so they can embrace it. In 1997, the Senate voted 95-0 in opposition to any agreement which would, like the protocol, require significant reduction of greenhouse-gas emissions in America and some other developed nations but would involve no "specific scheduled commitments" for 129 "developing" countries, including the second, fourth, 10th, 11th, 13th and 15th largest economies (China, India, Brazil, South Korea, Mexico and Indonesia). Forty-two of the senators serving in 1997 are gone. Let's find out if the new senators disagree with the 1997 vote.
Do they also disagree with Bjorn Lomborg, author of "The Skeptical Environmentalist"? He says: Compliance with Kyoto would reduce global warming by an amount too small to measure. But the cost of compliance just to the United States would be higher than the cost of providing the entire world with clean drinking water and sanitation, which would prevent 2 million deaths (from diseases like infant diarrhea) a year and prevent half a billion people from becoming seriously ill each year.
Nature designed us as carnivores, but what does nature know about nature? Meat has been designated a menace. Among the 51 exhortations in Time magazine's "global warming survival guide" (April 9), No. 22 says a BMW is less responsible than a Big Mac for "climate change," that conveniently imprecise name for our peril. This is because the world meat industry produces 18 percent of the world's greenhouse-gas emissions, more than transportation produces. Nitrous oxide in manure (warming effect: 296 times greater than that of carbon) and methane from animal flatulence (23 times greater) mean that "a 16 ounce T-bone is like a Hummer on a plate."
Ben & Jerry's ice cream might be even more sinister: A gallon of it requires electricity guzzling refrigeration, and four gallons of milk produced by cows that simultaneously produce eight gallons of manure and flatulence with eight gallons of methane. The cows do this while consuming lots of grain and hay, which are cultivated by using tractor fuel, chemical fertilizers, herbicides and insecticides, and transported by fuel-consuming trains and trucks.
Newsweek says most food travels at least 1,200 miles to get to Americans' plates, so buying local food will save fuel. Do not order halibut in Omaha.
Speaking of Hummers, perhaps it is environmentally responsible to buy one and squash a Prius with it. The Prius hybrid is, of course, fuel-efficient. There are, however, environmental costs to mining and smelting (in Canada) 1,000 tons a year of zinc for the battery-powered second motor, and the shipping of the zinc 10,000 miles - trailing a cloud of carbon - to Wales for refining and then to China for turning it into the component that is then sent to a battery factory in Japan.
Opinions differ as to whether acid rain from the Canadian mining and smelting operation is killing vegetation that once absorbed carbon dioxide. But a report from CNW Marketing Research ("Dust to Dust: The Energy Cost of New Vehicles from Concept to Disposal") concludes that in "dollars per lifetime mile," a Prius (expected life: 109,000 miles) costs $3.25, compared to $1.95 for a Hummer H3 (expected life: 207,000 miles).
The CNW report states that a hybrid makes economic and environmental sense for a purchaser living in the Los Angeles basin, where fuel costs are high and smog is worrisome. But environmental costs of the hybrid are exported from the basin.
We are urged to "think globally and act locally," as Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has done with proposals to reduce California's CO2 emissions 25 percent by 2020. If California improbably achieves this, at a cost not yet computed, it will have reduced global greenhouse-gas emissions 0.3 percent. The question is:
Suppose the costs over a decade of trying to achieve a local goal are significant. And suppose the positive impact on the globe's temperature is insignificant - and much less than, say, the negative impact of one year's increase in the number of vehicles in one country (e.g., India). If so, are people who recommend such things thinking globally but not clearly?

How are things over at The Metrocenter this morning?

Oh, and don't forget to Appreciate Riffy on this thread. Do it! Appreciate him!!!

jb Now that I have had a chance to think about it, my feelings on Imus are as follows: He obviously crossed the line and hit a nerve as the momentum for his firing has reached a frenzy not often seen in our country. After refelecting on it, I think he decision to drop him by MSNBC was correct, however, I think he should be allowed to remain on the airwaves. The market will ultimately determine his fate. I also think Sharpton and Jackson are once again using this to promote themselves, rather than genuinely trying to heal the racial divide that obviously exists in our country...

Well I believe this has aready been done, as all the big advertisers have pulled out already. Hence his firing.

Funny to see Whoopie Goldberg going nuts over this. It wasn't long ago her boyfriend at the time, Ted Danson, was appearing in blackface spewing the most racial stuff imaginable. But at the time Whoopie defended it as "comedy". Liberals....

IMO You're missing the point.
I think the real story here is way beyond a racial divide. The real story here is how we are being manipulated by mass media. Anyone who has never read PROPAGANDA by Jacques Ellul should pick up a copy if it's still in print.

Would that be the Whoopie Goldberg who named her production company One Ho Productions???

Thought so.

Sickening double standard.

Ten Thousand Motels btw....Riffhard is a cool poster. I can't think of anything else to say about that. I can relate to what he said about his Mom being a liberal. My aunt who helped raise me and I whom love deeply, is a Bush Republican. We don't argue....much...I just wish she wasn't so thick headed.

If that is true, it's really incredible that no one in the media has pointed it out. It seems pretty much accepted, however, that if African-Americans use this language it is O.K. I don't think there should be a double-standard, but I understand the reasoning behind it.

IF???

Here ya go:

LOS ANGELES -- LOS ANGELES, Jan. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Whoopi Goldberg and her production company, One Ho Productions, will develop longform and series projects for USA Network and USA Cable Entertainment, both part of the Universal Television Group, it was announced today by Jeff Wachtel, USA Network's executive vice president, series and longform programming.

"It's an honor and a joy to be able to work with Whoopi Goldberg," said Jeff Wachtel, of the deal with Ms. Goldberg's One Ho Productions. "As a producer, as an artist and as a person, Whoopi embodies the talent, passion and inspiration that we want to bring to this network."

SweetVirginia Yes, back to Riffy.

It is my personal belief that if Riffy posted from the Acropolis, he'd be bigger than Yanni.

he'd be bigger than the Beatles...who were
bigger than Jesus.

jb Riffy, is the station you appear on available via internet? If so, please let me know the cyber address and times you are on. It would be great to hear a real rock and roll station down here. There has not been a true rock station down here since WSHE in the 70's. You either get the hio-hop crap, the generation X stuff, or "Classic Rock"(Eagles, Boston, Fleetwood Mac, with the occasional Stones song). We don't set that show with Little Stevie which I understand is very good. There is no real mix of new rock sprinkled with the classics..
