I'm just as pissed and upset with Jr. as all of you.
However, a gentle reminder. Rock on, bros., spread the word, and keep the faith!!!

Thanks for the reminder oldguy. You know how some things just get your blood up.

Who'd a known that my post would reveal such feelings.


Since no politics are allowed, I'll just go back to watching the decline & fall.

Well, well... she now says she's going to serve the entire sentence as it's helping her to "grow", maybe be a better person.

....it's helping her to "grow", maybe be a better person.

I would guess that almost any real-world experience would accomplish that. This is a young woman who appears to have no concept of how the other 99.9% of us live, nor any interest in anything other than herself. Sad and tragic way to li ve, actually....

[oldguy]

You're right, and another thing, they've just said she.......whoops......
to hell with that, I think my toast just popped up....

I dunno. When I think of Paris my toast does anything but "pop up."

Have you ever seen her show? I mean have you ever really watched it?
I think thats the idea behind it, have them visit with "real people"...I think its totally hillarious! Like a modern day Lucy and Ethel. Dont get me wrong, I dont condone her behavior and Im not a "fan"...its a trainwreck! Everybody loves a good trainwreck, no?

We used to watch it. The people pretty much knew what they were gonna get. It was often funny.

My wife even perfected a coy "That's Hot".

I was led to post the Rome comment not by Paris' behavior nor her courtroom shenanigans per se, but by a particularly hilarious montage of news footage on MSNBC.

"We've got a new twist...umbrelllas. She could very well come out of the house under the shade of those umbrellas."

It lasted about 15 minutes & each clip was more absurd than last. All with

*IMPORTANT NEWS MUSIC*

in the background. If it was Countdown then I'd assume it was meant to be funny, but it was Hardball (I think).

It still cracks me up. Maybe we won't get great music like the Brits, but we will almost certainly get accidently hilarious pseudo-important media circuses (perhaps circii, if we wish to belabor the Rome metaphor with a newsperson's mic).

The actual political discussion that ensued on this thread was more interesting than the Paris stuff. I wish we could continue.
