I just don't know that there's any other explanation...these women were high....
I'm sure it was strictly for medical purposes that they were using anything in the first place. =-)

OMG! Big John Cornyn
You have my word...this is not a spoof...I know it may feel and look like one...but really...it's not a spoof...
Just in case you're still not sure if it's a spoof check this out.
My face displayed a complete look of shock, bewilderment, confusion, humor and horror all at the same time....
Seriously...I don't know Texas politics that well...but I just can't imagine that this will work out well for him...if I was on his campaign staff....I would resign...fast...

RIP George Carlin
I always thought George Carlin was a pretty entertaining and amusing guy. I always liked watching his routines and performances in movies...especially Kevin Smith's films. As a kid I thought he did a great job as Mr. Conductor on various Thomas the Tank Engine shows on PBS. When I got older I always found it funny that the Mr. Conductor was the same person in all of these way out there comedy routines. =-)
Here are some of George's own thoughts on death...

The song Bobby and I are now addicted to...
Okay - I mentioned the commercial from Apple featuring Coldplay's new song (Viva la Vida) several posts ago. What I forgot to do was post the entire song...oops! So...here is a video with the entire song... Below the video are the lyrics for the song. Enjoy!
"I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
Once you know there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
(Ohhh)
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People could not believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries Wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
Hear Jerusalem bells are ringings
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can not explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh"

Tribute to Senator Robert Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Some anniversaries regarding both Martin Luther King, Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy passed recently. I posted a brief blog about MLK, but never got around to posted one for RFK.
I respect and appreciate both of these men a great deal. I came across this famous video today. It's one of my favorite for many reasons. It's such an ironic and symbolic overlap of these two significant leaders. It's so amazing that this speech was made by RFK about MLK only months before his own assassination and less than a decade after JFK's assassination.
I learned even more about this speech on NPR this past year and have grown to appreciate it even more. Two things in particular..
1. RFK's son points out that because the neighborhood where RFK gave this speech was considered to be so dangerous that some of the police escort separated him from a chunk of his staff. It happens that he was separated from the staff which had the original draft for this speech. He didn't have it with him when he gave the speech. So much if this is from last minute notes, his memory and his heart. The poem that he recites at the end of the speech was from his memory - it was one of his favorite poems.
2. News of MLK's death resulted in riots across the USA. Almost every major city had at least some size riot. The city that this speech was given in, Indianapolis - which is not exactly known for it's racial peacefulness at that time - was one of the only major cities that didn't have major violence break out.
This isn't my favorite video for this speech - I don't like all of the photos - but it has a good and complete version of the audio.
As an added bonus I've also included this amazing speech given by Robert F. Kennedy on April 5, 1968...

The only Reagan speech I liked...
Okay - it's probably not a surprise to discover that I'm not exactly one of the biggest fans of Ronald Reagan (or The Power Rangers for that matter - but that's another story).
However, there is one speech that he delivered which I do appreciate. Something we were watching on TV today made me think of it and I've decided to share it with you... It somewhat pains me that it was Reagan who delivered it - but I suppose that makes it somehow even more significant.
In case you are somehow not familiar with what he's talking about in his speech...here's a clip to help remind you...

The Procrastinator
This was the funniest thing I've seen on The Daily Show in a long time...perhaps the funniest thing I've seen on television in a long time...my stomach hurt I was laughing so hard at times...particularly after the video where Bush talks about his belief on getting climate initiatives passed by the end of his term...
This press conference clip is perhaps the funniest thing I've seen Bush do lately...
