If we've learned anything about American politics in the 'Aughts it's this: choosing between the Democrats and the Republicans is like choosing between having ones scrotum mauled by a cougar or having ones scrotum mauled by a puma. There is a huge anti-incumbent movement brewing.

In actuality, Rudolph was indeed ridiculed and persecuted for his red nose, and then he led the sleigh through the fog one night and saved Christmas, and then he was summarily assassinated by Blitzen, with the support of most of the other reindeer. Rudolph was not part of the …

Rock-on!

Walt,
Thank you for accepting my invitation of friendship. I really loved the article that you posted "Man with condom on found bitten to death by snake", it has been my favorite article so far. I am very excited to see the many other things that you have written, or posted, and I can't wait to see what else you add in the future. Thanks again, and see ya on the Vine.

I think I just realized that your bio picture is, in fact, you, and not Steve Buscemi. You look a lot like Steve Buscemi, but without the crazy eyes.
You drink like a @!$%#ing machine.

The first thing I ever read by Walt D. was his apology for voting for Bush. I stopped for a moment, contemplating the freezing of Hell's fires, took a sip from my flask of Jameson's, and decided... this one bears watching.

Walt finds the angle in a story and adds his own twist making his articles and seeds a worthy read. Most importantly, Walt appreciates history and gets the old saying "we should study our past to make better decisions about the future"...okay, maybe it's not an old saying, but he gets it.

Walt always manages to find the most interesting articles around. When reading his articles and seeds, I get the feeling he doesn't seed everything he finds - just, as the French would say, la creme de la creme (insert various accents and correct gender issues as necessary). It's always great to read one of his articles - not only do they inform you and make you think, but they also open up the place for some very interesting discussion.
In other words, the guy rocks.

After all the headache spinning dialogue about changes and suggestions for changes here etc., I wanted to do a positive article about NV. Granted the dialogue is good overall and needed for dynamic change and growth, but I feel it's time for something a bit more positive.
Winter has really come to Ohio. It has been a long time since I lived through such a down pouring of the flaky white stuff and longer still since I saw such an accumulation of birds in Winter. These pictures were taken by Anna and I think they are some of the best.
Feminism is a joke, it may have been a good movement back in the 70, but the feminists today make it very hard for normal folks take them seriously.
The 11pm top story on New York's NBC News 4 was titled: "WE GOT HIM!" When I first saw the headline I assumed they meant Bin Laden, right? Who else would deserve a top story headline of such! Until the story continued and it was referring the 28 year old Asian grad student at Rut …
