QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jan 23, 2007 -> 11:14 AM) Hey, Tex, where on the Comedy Central videos page did you find the link/script to embed one of their videos into a post? Got one I'd like to put up, but can't figure out where to get the linkage. It was just below and to the right of the video player. You also have to turn on HTML here for it to work.

QUOTE(Soxy @ Jan 23, 2007 -> 09:23 AM) Trucker hats are soooooooooo 2004. Last summer Bermuda shorts (are those the same as board shorts?) were huge for both men and women. I also tend to think they're more universally flattering than shorter shorts. I'm not sure if they'll be big this summer still. There was some concern that the women on staff would prefer a shorter short that the guys. We also have to include function into the equation. They will be wearing these 10 hours a day, in and out of the water. I assumed the trucker cap was out, what's in?

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 23, 2007 -> 08:21 AM) You're too old to care about being cool, at that age it is just creepy I gotta make certain people will buy this stuff. Old guy stuff is just a really bad idea :-) I also don't want the staff to feel stupid in the uniform. Added to the list, I need about 2 hours of music for a Pachanga. Think Hawaiian meets Mexico party. About 15 minutes will be Patriotic during the fireworks, but the rest will be a mix of Jimmy Buffet, Dred Zepplin, Beach Boys, Modest Mouse, The Who,and ???? need some ideas that fit being outside oin the Gulf.

I need to start buying stuff for my camp this summer. I also need to design t-shirts, caps, hats, and other items. What's hot, what's not? Trucker's caps? Big t-shirt designs on front/back/small designs, etc. I need to theme for four different t0shirts one each for SCUBA, sailing, fishing, and Island Adventure. I also need to order staff uniforms which will be blue swim trunks and a heather grey t-shirt. But are longer "board shorts" in or something shorter? You kids are such a mystery to me

Hey, one year I was on both lists Personal opinion, while I will proudly wear a liberal title, I would not wear a Hugo Chavez title. Frankly I'm a little disappointed at that description.

The "undeclared" 2008 presidential candidates have suddenly begun declaring, and it is our patriotic duty as Comedy-Americans to mock them mercilessly. First up: Illinois Senator Barack Obama. The Top 18 Barack Obama Campaign Slogans 18> Barack to the future! 17> Please ignore the Middle-Easterny name. 16> Because the whole "slow-witted Texan with a safe-sounding name" thing didn't work out so well. 15> Face it, America: It's me or the Ice Woman. 14> Once you go Barack, you never go back. 13> Barack: Cultural Learnings of Books and the Enlightenment for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of America 12> Hey, what's the problem? You elected Marion Berry *twice*! 11> Not Hillary Clinton for president. 10> Your last chance for a black president before the country's overrun by Mexicans. 9> Straight Outta Cul-De-Sac 8> He beats Hillary hands down in the bathing suit competition! 7> After our last president, we need one Hussein. 6> Obama: Just pretend he's Irish. 5> Restoring English as the official language of State of the Union addresses. 4> C'mon, you KNOW you want to see Trent Lott piss his pants! 3> America: Movin' on up! 2> It's time for a different B.O. in the White House. and Topfive.com's Number 1 Barack Obama Campaign Slogan... 1> As American as imam's apple pie!

QUOTE(Soxy @ Jan 22, 2007 -> 11:59 AM) No, for serious! Pet shop owner creates beer for dogs Mon Jan 22, 8:38 AM ET AMSTERDAM, Netherlands - After a long day hunting, there's nothing like wrapping your paw around a cold bottle of beer. So Terrie Berenden, a pet shop owner in the southern Dutch town of Zelhem, created a beer for her Weimaraners made from beef extract and malt. "Once a year we go to Austria to hunt with our dogs, and at the end of the day we sit on the verandah and drink a beer. So we thought, my dog also has earned it," she said. Berenden consigned a local brewery to make and bottle the nonalcoholic beer, branded as Kwispelbier. It was introduced to the market last week and advertised it as "a beer for your best friend." "Kwispel" is the Dutch word for wagging a tail. The beer is fit for human consumption, Berenden said. But at euro1.65 ($2.14) a bottle, it's about four times more expensive than a Heineken. Wow, that's what I thought Budweiser was for.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 22, 2007 -> 11:51 AM) So essentially you are saying we should elect the best preformer to the highest office in the country? No, What I am saying is political skills might not be the best yardstick to use in evaluating if someone would be a good President. We should also look to private industry, public not for profits, the military, etc. and include that experience in the yardstick. Steve Jobs might just be better than Congressman Bill Jefferson even though Jefferson has done more politically (to use an extreme example).

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jan 22, 2007 -> 10:59 AM) I don't like Bill Richardson, but the man is much more capable of running this country than Obama. I've never seen a guy make so much political headway on the basis of one speach. Sure he seems like a decent guy, but politically (sans one speach) the guy has done absolutely nothing. Richardson on the other hand has been one of the bigger faces of the party, has tons of experience running a state (as governor) and to me is a far better person. I disagree with his political agenda (which is natural) but he's far more deserving and capable. Of course that doesn't necessarily mean much anything. Perhaps politically isn't the best yardstick to use? I'm not defending Obama here, but perhaps we have laways over rated political experience. The primary business of politics is to get elected. Perhaps when evaluating a Presidential candidate we should open that horizon to include the rest of their lives and achievements. btw, I believe it's speech Mr. Quayle

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Jan 22, 2007 -> 09:11 AM) Tex, if his voting record shows that he toes the party line, how does that NOT give you insight into his character? I was merely pointing out that people say that he is a refreshing change. Well, other than being sober, what difference is there between him and kennedy? While voting may not shed light on his citizenship, etc, it does shed light on his political leanings and how he would tend to lead on issue based items, such as taxes, defense, etc. That IS important. I am not saying it is important, but remember we usually elect a Governor and we never have that to judge them by. Plus as a freshman Senator, you would expect him to toe the party line 100%, no matter which party he hails from. With so many votes always along party lines, if that was the biggest criteria, it wouldn't matter who either party nominates. Actually for a segment of the voting population, party affiliation is the only criteria. For the independent, swing voters, voting records will only be a small part. Plus, where in any of these candidates voting record could you predict how they would handle a 9/11 or Katrina type of catastrophe?

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Jan 21, 2007 -> 01:25 PM) After looking at his voting records, i am not sure what anyone sees here that would be refreshing and new other than his skin color. http://www.vote-smart.org/voting_category....can_id=BS030017 Obama's record compare to Teddy's record, you find suprising similarities. Might as well elect ted! http://www.vote-smart.org/voting_category....can_id=S0410103 If you believe that the only thing important is their voting record, then I guess you could. I believe their is much, much more to being President. A voting record will not shed any light on their character, citizenship, or mental and physical fitness. Their abilities to forge a concensus, their abilities to lead in good times and bad.

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Jan 20, 2007 -> 10:09 AM) good-bye again? what's the matter? QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Jan 20, 2007 -> 10:11 AM) Yesterday, I spent much of my afternoon in the ER. With chest pains. Wasn't a heart attack - but at least it wasn't gas. Turns out my chest wall was inflammed. So I went out and celebrated not having a heart attack! Woo! New York City! Vegetarian Tacos for everyone! Inflammed like Britney? Glad you are feeling better.
