From an bind on : "I go forward with the belief as others have said that as human beings our greatest glory consists not in never failing but in rising every time we fall."For Spitzer that will likely be one toe at a time. How does a person go one toe at a measure?Related posts "Orange Crate Art" is a song by Van Dyke Parks and the title of a 1995 album by Van Dyke Parks and Brian Wilson. It is to my mind one of the great American songs. "Orange crate art was a place to start."Comments are always welcome appended to posts or by.

"Watts With the Big Knife Metaphor?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-01 23:39:49

They raided our treasury stripped our schools and handed it all to their corporate cronies. ( - promoted by boadicea) Wednesday. September 12th. University Democrats had a Question and Answer session with Mikal Watts. I undergo a transcript and Watts did talk down quite a bit to the UT students. He also talked in circles said a whole lot of nothing and used some really bad metaphors. This transcript is worthy of several posts and his right to decide say is alarming but I have to go away with the "Big Knife" metaphor. A: Yeah well. I guess the Karl Rove truck begins. Let me just tell you something. The people that we are going up against will swift ride you all day long and they will continue to swift boat you and I can assure you of a couple things. The people that we're going up against -- you better be create from raw material to win. If you're going to a knife fight don't let the other guy undergo the big knife. I can assure you that for the last 20 years. I have fought the fights against the large corporations. I have fought the fights for the people who that weren't flamethrowers -- on behalf of the people of Texas that frankly are lucky that they have a match. And we have got to be create from raw material. Because I don't care about what they're gonna alter up this measure what they're gonna make up next measure it's coming and we've got to be ready to fight back. The people of Texas want to hear about issues and they don't be character assassinations. But I can tell you that the way that I command that is I tell my wife don't watch the TV don't construe the blogs don't read this don't read that ok. I can take those blows and will take them. Ok and I'm ready to take those blows but I'm ready to fight back. I told a joke about Karl Rove. He came down to Harlingen. Texas with John Cornyn to raise money thereby giving rise to the joke that you know in South Texas we know about a guy named Dick Cheney but at least when he comes he brings a shotgun; this guy brings a glide. [laughter] The Republican machinery - the Republican machinery -- will attack me they ordain contend Rick they will attack anybody who's a Democrat. It will come. But you better have someone who's ready willing and able to fight back and if we don't we're gonna be in a world of hurt. So what did the UT students take away from that long non-answer? Here's what one student who recently landed in America from India and who has no background knowledge of US politics had to say: "You know that thing about having a big knife when you go into.

Posted on 2007-12-15 15:47:04

(14 Sep 2007) -- For most of it the Red Sox lead the Yankees. Never quite as smoothly or prettily as it should be. But they lead. Then late they implode and blow it. In other words a much like most seasons but in miniature. Allowable HTML: <a href=""></a> (for links). <blockquote></blockquote> (for quotes). <em></em> (for italics). <strong></strong> (for bold) -- all other tags will be stripped automatically.

It's either now or early tomorrow and I am a night person. Anonymous said... Wasn't the other night enough distraction to measure a few days? You'd evaluate. I know who you aren't. for some reason the only thing my object conjures up when confronted with the word "distraction" is the nonsensical "wang-dang-doodle" from the blues realm. I believe. You do with this what you ordain. I wish it provides even a moment's distraction for you.

""Viva Viagra"....A Metaphor?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-17 17:04:54

So I avoided seeing or hearing "the speech" last night but did not avoid educating myself on the finer points. And I read as I often do the IGTNT diary last evening. So it was in arouse of myself that I called my misrepresentative’s office. Raised blood pressure being the result. I got on the old treadmill to work off my. what should we call it nowadays.. fury? I listened to the radio the local "progressive" Clear Channel displace that gives us "the most trusted name in news" every hour on the hour. And it was the hour so what do I comprehend after nothing but war talk? say to myself. I’m walking on the treadmill and I’m female. And then I reach for the off add. "Even if it happens occasionally it could be E. D.!!!" How odd. I thought. I had mentioned to the young man in D. C this morning that this machismo stuff was disgusting."Not something to sing about". No. I’d accept with that. Then the disclaimers:"Could cause vision problems." Yes. I construe in one of their ads that it could furnish everything a blue tint. Hmmmm. My favorite is (and I know everyone always gets a big impel out of it:-). "an erection lasting more than 4 hours". Yes that is a problem. So is one that lasts 7 years or is it 6 or 5?? I don’t know when we swallowed that damn pill. And anyway it’s been stuck in my throat since 2000. Anyway. "always use protection to prevent STD's" .. well I know that there is some disease involved..
