Her record indicates she's very pro-law enforcement. Even if the police later admit error. I wouldn't call that very liberal.

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn, world serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs. Feed it off an aux speak,, grunt, no, strength, The ladder starts to clatter with fear fight down height. Wire in a fire, representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site. Left of west and coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped. Look at that low playing! Fine, then. Uh oh, overflow, population, common food, but it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and the revered and the right - right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.

It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign towers. Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn. Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate. Light a candle, light a votive. Step down, step down. Watch your heel crush, crushed. Uh-oh, this means no fear cavalier. Renegade steer clear! A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.

It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) and I feel fine. (I feel fine)

It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) and I feel fine.

The other night I dreamt of knives, continental drift divide. Mountains sit in a line Leonard Bernstein. Leonid Brezhnev. Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs. Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom! You symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right.

It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) and I feel fine.

Whether that's liberal or conservative kinda depends which laws they're enforcing - and how.

We're still working on our Common Sense test. It seems it's not so common any more so we are try to devise a test that measures it in parts per million.

Awesome. No, I am 33. Man, it has only been about an hour or two and this has had 14 or so hits! I NEVER get responses from my posts, this is such a relief. It only takes me taking on the super-conservative approach to illicit responses? Wow. Anyway............... Who is next in line to step down?

Thanks for that, aircooled! I've known Bill Barry and Mike Mills since childhood, and have never been able to figure out the lyrics to that song. Lord knows I've tried.

Les, you dropped a turd in our happy little punch bowl at a great party called the GRM board and many of us were smart enough to ignore the turd and discretely mention it to the host.

Would you rather we all go around screaming and yelling about something someone dropped in the punch bowl?

Hahahaha! I loved when Bill Murray ate the Baby Ruth! Classic! Patrick, I do realize we traded one left-leaner for another left-leaner and that (in the grand scheme of things) is no big deal. Honestly, with Congress being majorly members of the Democratic Party and the President being a member of the Democratic party, I was just thinking that in another year and a half the planets may not align (if you will) as they are aligning at this moment.

BTW, how is the job hunt going, man?

I said, "that guy must be from California."

How right I was!

I, for one, think most states would be pretty empty if a common sense residency test was applied. Well, maybe not the Montana/Wyoming twins.

But if common sense was not common then would it still be common sense........maybe these twins you speak of from montana and wyoming have above average sense. Also, why cant i find pictures of these twins on google image search. Pics or they did not happen.
