Unfortunately, everything has been done tenfold. The best thing upcoming and even established directors, screenwriters, can do is do their own spin on an old formula. Easier said than done.

I watched the Rob Zombie remake of Halloween, too. I thought it was very well done and an homage to the original, but of course, I love all of Zombie's work in the movies.

Don't mind eating dog, either. Racoon dogs especially!

WISH YOU WERE HERE PINK FLOYD So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain. Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell? And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage? How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year, Running over the same old ground. What have you found? The same old fears. Wish you were here.

I heard the surgeon kept pressing on a particular part of his brain so that he'd continuously repeat, "Whatever happened to lil' Billy?".

Unfortunately, these are the same people who wouldn't shoot, skin, and eat a cat because they have personality. Cats are good eatin'.

It's the difference between a butler and a cook.

I wonder, if while he was under, we could draw out the truth behind the incident at Chappaquiddick.

Hillary cries aloud, "Why? Oh why? Oh merciful lord? Why must you take the one man that can dress me like a man?" Off in the distance, a wolf howls..

Keep an eye on them White Russians for me. Thanks.

Today he'd be called "anti-American".

I'll warn you now... I'm a screamer.

You're only alive and well in Alaska because of your land's oil and adjacency to Mother Russia.

Actually at that time, there was no fresh influx of immigrants into the South. The North had a blockade around the Atlantic coast. The Declaration of Independence did not proclaim the existence of one new nation but rather of thirteen independent and sovereign states. If you look it up in the dictionary you will find that the word state is actually synonymous with country. When the Constitution was written each of these states acted in its own sovereign capacity to decide whether or not to join the union. None of them had to. Indeed, George Washington had already been sworn in as president and the first congress was already in session before Rhode Island decided to join. The Constitution specifically gives some powers to the federal government and explicitly reserves all other powers to the states. Based on all this it could reasonably be argued that the states still possessed the sovereign power to withdraw from a union they had entered voluntarily. The Southern states put this theory to the test by attempting to secede. The political reason for their secession was to protect the institution of slavery which they saw as threatened by the new Republican party. Slavery was AN ISSUE, but not THE CAUSE. Slavery would have eventually been abolished for economic reasons without the war. There were some in the North who truly saw slavery as an evil that should be abolished, but the majority was not so vehemently opposed to it. Only a very small percentage in the South owned more than one or two slaves and therefore had an economic interest in maintaining the status quo. Actually, only 5% owned even one slave. Mothers would not send their sons to die to free the slaves or maintain the plantations labor supply. I have read a few Yankee Civil War diaries and NONE said they were fighting to free the slaves. The most common reasons for joining were to preserve the Union and, in Bloody Kansas, revenge for raids by the Missouri pro-slavery forces. I'll admit that I haven't found any Rebel diaries, but I doubt if many said they were fighting to preserve slavery. With a larger population (20 million vs 5 million citizens plus 4 million slaves), the Northern states controlled the House of Representatives. With a larger number of states (19 vs 11), the North controlled the Senate. The South had an agricultural economy, primarily from exporting cotton. EXPORTS of agricultural products were taxed, keeping prices low. The North had an industrial economy. IMPORTS of finished products were taxed, inflating the value of industrial output. 85% of the US budget was from taxes collected in the Southern states. With the Missouri Compromise and the Kansas-Nebraska Act, the South saw their power in the Federal government being reduced even further. The primary cause of the Civil War was the same as the justification of the American Revolution "Taxation without representation.".

You make it sound so sexy.

Hey! It had nothing to do with slaves, because 99% of the population were poor immigrant Scottish, Irish, and German farmers scratching a life off rock and dirt. It was a States Rights issue.

Not very good, though. Tim's been passed around like a hot potato.

I think you're a racist for calling me a racist. You're stereotyping me as a racist for making racist remarks. Next thing you know, you'll be calling me a pervert for asking about your panties. You make me sick.

THE THRILL IS GONE B.B.

Nope. Hirsute. And writhing.

Just a comparison: Liberal and Democrat Women look like Joy Behar, Rosie O'Donnell, and Hillary Clinton. Conservative and Republican women look like Ann Coulter and Elisabeth Hasselbeck.

Hmmm... gross generalizations and stereotyping does work.

If the CIA was truly interested in what was on our computers, we'd never know it. I'm sure they could look at our CPUs a bit more stealthilly. So... wez... they don't care about all the gay porn you downloaded. Nor do they care about all the gay porn Brotherman downloaded to his work computer.

I'm sorry Joy Behar married a Jew, however her maiden name is Italian and she was raised Roman Catholic. So that makes her a fat guinea mutt.

Why is the pretty one always singled out? I guess when you've got a fat jew, a nobody fat negra, and a has-been far negra in a room, talking about Obama and appeasing America's enemies and you're a pretty white girl; it's all out war on your opinion. They will stop at nothing to convert her. Fortunately, her husband plays football for our country.
