Rex Kickass

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Dec 12, 2006 -> 07:16 AM) Debbie Harry was once upon a time hot. But man, did Blondie suck. Loved her in the theme song to Polyester. QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Dec 12, 2006 -> 10:07 AM) Yoko Ono I totally totally agree. "Kiss Kiss Kiss" and "Walking on Thin Ice" are freakin still hot today. QUOTE(CanOfCorn @ Dec 12, 2006 -> 12:31 PM) Man, you guys are forgetting some of the best ones: The Weather Girls I liked them better as "Two Tons of Fun"

Tony DeFranco and The DeFranco Family's "Heartbeat, It's A Lovebeat" Jermaine Stewart "We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off" Eddie Murphy "Party All The Time"

Women/Groups who deserve mention who haven't been yet. 1. Bjork/Sugarcubes 2. Yoko Ono 3. Joan Baez 4. Mary Jane Girls 5. Joan Baez 6. Sinead O'Connor 7. Portishead 8. Bettie Serveert 9. Fannypack Would also put Blondie, Sleater-Kinney, The Breeders, Jefferson Airplane, The Mamas and the Papas on that list. Probably Carole King too.

You infer that not arming the mujahadeen would have created a war in Europe. There's no way that's true. You infer that actively subverting democratically elected regimes in South and Central America was the only way to avoid a war in Europe. Again, patently false. Cold War II had a vastly different and varied set of potential outcomes that could have been acheived other than "what we did" and "World War III."

Nuke: Terrorist organizations that we face today were funded by the CIA, the federal government - and in the case of the Mujahadeen in Afghanistan (the cradle of Al-Qaeda) - even Israel herself. All in the name of killing communists, we took poor extremists with a s***ty shotgun and a dream and armed them to the teeth with Stinger missiles and AK's. We trained them on how to use them to attack Soviet warheads. We taught them how to make their insurgency more effective. That ultimately led to the creation of Bin Laden's organization. That ultimately led to September 11, 2001. I love it when you boil your philosophy down simply. Any means necessary to defeat the Soviets. Even if the means cause thousands of innocents to die - in Chile, in Iraq, Iran, Nicaragua - and ultimately on our own soil five years ago. Sometimes history is our greatest teacher. Sometimes means to an end have a way of biting our own ass years later.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Dec 11, 2006 -> 05:41 PM) I don't. I didn't say nothing about YouTube, or the internet.

Funny, I think Rush Limbaugh looks better on radio too.

The only time I ever really hear about her is when she's brought up by people who don't like her.

Damn war on Chrimmas

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Dec 10, 2006 -> 05:24 PM) Oh, but Rex, I thought they weren't going to waste their time on all the inquiries and all that crap? I thought they were "going to be above the fray"? Pluuuuuheeease. Anyone want to start an over/under when the censure/impeachment s*** starts up? When did I ever say that was going to happen? Of course there are going to be investigations. There needs to be some investigations. Especially about the situation in Iraq, and the terror front. But from what I've read, this event is something Reid decided to do with the assistance and support of the new Senate minority leader, Mitch McConnell. And unrelated to that investigation that was promised but never done in the 109th.

The "I Can't Believe I Have to Work" on Sunday mix. 1. Nathaniel Merriweather/Lovage - Strangers on a Train 2. Ween - Freedom of 76 3. bis - This Is Fake D.I.Y. 4. Radiohead - The Tourist 5. Duran Duran - Electric Barbarella 6. Manic Street Preachers - She Is Suffering 7. Shapes and Sizes - Weekends At A Time 8. Billy Bragg - Honey, I'm A Big Boy Now 9. Garbage - Queer 10. Junior Senior - Take My Time The "Oh crap, I'm late" eleventeenth track 11. The Replacements - Can't Hardly Wait

I really could care less if Mark Buerhle wore a Cubs hat. I might make fun of him for it, but whatever. So long as he busts his ass for my team, its great for me. Maybe we could just pay him in hats.

That Basement Jaxx song is hot. But the other single "Take Me Back To Your House" is a little hotter.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Dec 9, 2006 -> 01:00 PM) It's the Saturday "But I Don't Want To Put The Tree Up Yet" Shuffle The Clash - Straight To Hell Lemme tell you about your blood family kin.... My favoritest Clash song ever. Saturday night fun on the Shuffle. 1. Momus - Little Lord Obedience 2. Muse - Starlight 3. Thinking Fellers Local Union #282 - My Pal The Tortoise 4. Someday Never - Note to Self 5. George Michael - Praying for Time 6. Girls Against Boys - Disco Six Six Six 7. Garbage - Milk 8. Mecca Normal - Hurricane Watch 9. Bis - Black Pepper 10. Supergrass - Melanie Davis And the bonus, I'm falling asleep 11 Zero 7 - Throw It All Awaay

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Dec 9, 2006 -> 03:55 PM) Its pretty funny that it was mentioned that if you work at Ford though, you should ALWAYS drive a ford. Everyone at Sony ONLY buys sony. Hilarious thought process IMO. Park a foreign car at Rouge River employee parking and you'll see how "hilarious" it is. You get to drive your crushed cube home that night!

It could also be the follow up to the secret session that Reid called last year regarding Iraq intelligence and the investigation that the 109th never actually got around to finishing.

This is nonsense. Thread closed.

Photoshop? I didn't have the funding for things like that. Strictly an MS Paint campaign, thanks.

I've made a decision. This "election" is poisoning the atmosphere in the Filibuster - for whatever reason. So we're gonna call it a night here at the Kickass camp. There's no reason for fussin and feudin and fightin. At least about this stuff. I'd rather fight about how awesome the Democrat Congress is going to be. And clearly it's going to Roxxors your Soxxors.

Congrats on your win, GP. I haven't decided if I'm going to stand up for a second round. I have some stuff I need to attend to before I can make a decision. I'll make my decision on the matter by Monday morning.

My box came with one! I always keep lots of spare CDs. Believe it or not, they're great for traction when you're stuck in the show.

Enough with that.

What's that supposed to mean?

The Thursday night, killing time mix. Mary Jane Girls - In My House Nouvelle Vague - Love Will Tear Us Apart Brazilian Girls - Ships In The Night Basement Jaxx - Smoke Bubbles Franz Ferdinand - Whatcha Waitin For? The Beatles - No Reply Jens Lekman - Maple Leaves Nathaniel Merriweather/Lovage - Stroker Ace Fox - Only You Can Frank Black - Mosh, Don't Pass The Guy. And this mix goes to 11. Portishead - Requiem For Anna

Be funny. Or don't. Whatever.
