An Interview with Phil Davison

My speech last night — I knew it might be a little over the edge, but that’s how I felt at the time,” Davison said. “If it spurs someone to go on and say, ‘You know what, I want to go up there and talk like that too, I want to make a difference, I want to get involved in my community.’ If it affects one person in a positive way, then it was worth it.”

If you haven’t seen it: his speech last night.

‘Does anyone know if this article is more interesting if your stoned?’

The comments on this one are fun.

“Some scientists have speculated that effects of humans”
The scientists are just guessing like we are. No one knows excepted the one who created it: “GOD”.
Relax..and enjoy life whatever GOD give to you before he takes away from you!

That got four thumbs up, one down.

Pick a Number–Any Number

Republican U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann told supporters shortly after the rally that “we’re not going to let anyone get away with saying there were less than a million here today — because we were witnesses.”

CBS commissioned an estimate from AirPhotosLive, a company that provides crowd sizes based on aerial photos. CBS noted that there’s a margin of error of plus or minus 9,000. So, by this estimate, there were as few as 78,000 attendees or as many as 96,000.

I’m sure miracles occured there, too. They just haven’t put the finishing touches on the documentation yet.

Your comments are funny-Ha!Has! But we’ll bet that if someone put YOUR names on the internet for people all over the world to see and JUDGE you by, and accused you of a crime that you had NEVER EVEN BEEN CHARGED with, that you wouldn’t be laughing. Especially if it destroyed your life and family. Maybe then you would understand her trauma and pain from all this…

Jet powered school bus shoots flames out of its ass

The Telegraph quoted Stender as explaining his reason for creating a school bus that shoots 80 foot flames from its rear with these words: “I built the bus for two reasons. The first is to entertain people because, come on, it’s a jet bus. The second, is to keep kids off drugs. Jets are hot, drugs are not.”

I have been making a similar argument to my fellow Christians for years:

The point of this [traditional] ideal is not that other relationships have no value, or that only nuclear families can rear children successfully. Rather, it’s that lifelong heterosexual monogamy at its best can offer something distinctive and remarkable — a microcosm of civilization, and an organic connection between human generations — that makes it worthy of distinctive recognition and support.

Again, this is not how many cultures approach marriage. It’s a particularly Western understanding, derived from Jewish and Christian beliefs about the order of creation, and supplemented by later ideas about romantic love, the rights of children, and the equality of the sexes.

Or at least, it was the Western understanding. Lately, it has come to co-exist with a less idealistic, more accommodating approach, defined by no-fault divorce, frequent out-of-wedlock births, and serial monogamy.

In this landscape, gay-marriage critics who fret about a slippery slope to polygamy miss the point. Americans already have a kind of postmodern polygamy available to them. It’s just spread over the course of a lifetime, rather than concentrated in a “Big Love”-style menage.

If this newer order completely vanquishes the older marital ideal, then gay marriage will become not only acceptable but morally necessary. The lifelong commitment of a gay couple is more impressive than the serial monogamy of straights. And a culture in which weddings are optional celebrations of romantic love, only tangentially connected to procreation, has no business discriminating against the love of homosexuals.

Incidentally, some guy gave a neat little speech about stuff like this a long time ago.

Once Daryl asked Sylvester how his weekend had been:

Ah, I was in jail.
You were in jail?
Yeah.
What happened?
Oh, my sister and brother-in-law made me mad, so I shot em.
You shot them?
Yeah.
Well, are you going to go to trial?
Oh, no, man, they didn’t press no charges. They knew I didn’t mean it.

Jimmy Dean Sausage Complaint Call, transcribed

Randy Taylor. I don’t know where you people come from. I don’t know if you test your products. Your quantity of your products. Your products are very delicious. Love your sausage for thirty something years. But I can’t take and feed a family of five on a little twelve ounce roll of sausage. I don’t mind paying more money for your sixteen ounce roll of sausage, but you don’t have it anymore. You’ve got a twelve ounce roll and you’ve got three men that weigh over two-hundred pounds a piece, a woman that’s a little plump Scotch girl, and a daughter who’s thirteen, and you’re going to try to take a twelve ounce roll of sausage and a couple of dozen eggs and feed that — it ain’t going to work — and I’m not going to purchase your product any more or ever again. And as far as your sixteen ounce Maple and Sage, I don’t eat that. I’m not from the North. I’m a Texas man. Jimmy Dean Sausage is for Southern people to eat with their breakfast, with their fried eggs and their t-bone steak, and I can’t see going to little twelve ounce package to feed four five six people and I’m not going to buy two of those twelve ounce packages just because you want to downsize and charge the same goddamn price. I’d sure like a reply and I’d sure like you to go back to your sixteen ounce package on your regular sausage ’cause I’m not going to buy it otherwise ever again. I’ll just have my own damn sausage made like I used to thirty something years ago. It’s not tasty as yours is but it’ll work. Good bye. A little twelve ounce goddamn roll supposed to feed your brother, me, and you — six hundred pounds of men at least, get my point? — and the two girls, and they put it in that fucking pussy roll of sausage. Son of a bitch. Somebody needs their ass kicked. Some little consumer geekaroid thought this shit up. Save money, yeah. Saves money. Save money. Fuck, I want to eat, goddammit.

Jimmy Dean sausage is for Southern people to eat.

Also, I think he forgets to hang up at the end.
