"I ... do that with ALL kinds of people" (well... not men)
BTW... isn't this the guy who raised holy hell with Kentucky law maker, Geoff Davis (R) for referring to him as a boy? Sorry, Barack, he calls all kinds of people "boy" (well... not girls)

On Obama's Term of Endearment Leaves Bitter Aftertaste

When The Who said, "... hope I die before I get old." we all said, "Right on, brother!" But this heartfelt commitment is among the first things forgotten with the onset of fogeyhood. Still, there must be better places to wait than pink purgatory. Thanks for checking it out, Starshine.

On Paradise Found

Oh, Starshine. Once again your wise yet frivolous nature starts my day off in a careless, carefree dance of left foot, light foot. Thanks.

On The Game of LIFE

I have always told my kids the truth no matter how uncomfortable it may be at the time. It's for their own good in the long run. For instance, "Smoking marijuana will lead you to shooting heroine."

Sometimes you have to threaten them with, "If you tell a lie, Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy won't bring you a present."

Your comment re: "sex is something that should be addressed at home" is DEAD ON ! How dare these sanctimonious prudes say, "We won't teach your kids and neither will you... under penalty of law." Once again, Star, you gave the nail on the head.

On Innocence Glossed

Whew. My tear makers were a little leaky at this one.
You made me think of how helplessly we all watch our young fall from the nest. And all the trucks my own folks had to watch me run in front of.

Thanks, Starshine

On Powerless Steering

I was really hoping these kids would take over the cameras and cables. And make the production tekkies haul their water and cook their meals. Now you're talking ratings!

On Warning: Children in Charge

My first love's caress with me lingers.
I get giddy at the croon of some singers.
But none stir my juices
Like a well trained masseuse's
Sinking zingers from forty buck fingers.

On Oil Meets Girl

In their 2000 DVD release of the Disney classic, "Melody Time", the scalpel mad mouse turds went crazy on Pecos Bill. Not only did they digitally remove the hand rolled from from his lip in every scene... they trashed the part where he threw a saddle on a cyclone. Gone is the verse:
"While that cyclone bucked and flitted,
Pecos rolled a smoke and lit it,
And he tamed that ornery wind down to a breeze."
Sufferin' sagebrush, Starshine!! What's a cowpoke to do?

On The Great Disney Smoke-Out

I don't know, Star. As a frequent cramped quarters flyer, I do sometimes think it would be great to sit up in the pampered and overpriced lounge section... even though they will get to crash first.

But I must say I've never really felt any of the snobbish animosity you suggest from the "I have too much dough" seats. After all, it's easy enough to sit there if you to. Maybe someday I'll sell my car and buy a couple of first class tickets to Omaha.
