“we need someone to go back in time and film Jesus' sermons and tape an interview. Because, if the man existed, no one will ever know what his thoughts or teachings were about because of all the filtering right from the beginning.”

“I'm beginning to wish I was one of them.”

“I forgot to mention that I can't believe you have the fortitude to do what you're doing with all of interacting you do with others with which you don't agree. It would wear me out quick.

Keep on keeping on.”

“I think you used too many words in your final argument. Sometimes you have to be explicit, brief, and very simple when having an exchange with conservative minds. It would have been better to just point out that you do, in fact, add links to your posts and messages, and then add several links to prove it.

If you try to outwit the witless, you will go insane. I'm talking about Joker insane.”

“it's defoe's crappy projects that keep me away.

he did "speed II"”

“Thanks for the warning even though I don't go to willem defoe movies.”

“with less criminals, there'll be room in the prisons for politicians and the CIA, the NSA, and that guy who makes the "girls gone wild" videos.”

“it's important for us to arm our future enemies so that we not only have a market to keep weapons manufacturers rich, but also so it doesn't look like we're committing war against unarmed peasants.”

“I'm writing an abridged version of the 'declaration of independence' and the Constitution. They will finally say what they were meant to say.”

“well, the real world stinks.”

“Agreed”

“I'll write more letters.”

“I never expected anything decent to come from our lawmakers.”

“entirely”

“I could write a movie that is so funny the audience would die. The film would not have one poop joke. Someday, if I feel I have a shot at doing it to my own standard, I'll write it. For now I'm sticking to shorter things.

When I say the audience would die. I mean they would die. They may as well show up in ambulances or even hearses because that's the only way they'll be leaving the theater. Feet first.

and they wouldn't be dying of boredom. It would be from laughing so hard that their lungs would pop out of their mouths.”

“good article.

There was a 'Silent Hill 1'?”

“Darn, I forgot Castro.”

“I'm sorry. I forgot to mention that no one knew Kennedy would be assassinated because the KGB, the Mafia, Oswald, Johnson, Mrs. Kennedy, the CIA, and that guy who did the voice of Deputy Dawg hadn't yet made the decision to do so.

(I'm just kidding and not trying to be a jerk or anything. My job is to make people laugh, or be confused)”

“I don't know. I just read once where someone said Phil Ochs was singing about the war before it was even 'the war'. I'm not saying JD was a genius or anything. Just that he may have picked up on some of that 'we're going to war' talk that may have been around. Maybe he had an uncle in the pentagon who taught him how to carjack, but not very well as he left the car behind.

Yes. That's it. JD was trained by the CIA to kill innocent people, however, he was a failure at it and kept stealing their wallets instead. But he was privy to secret information from that guy who told Kennedy and Johnson that we needed a war. The guy's name was McNamara or something. McNamara would teach classes on how to use a garret on a waiter in order to avoid paying for a meal. JD was one of his students. McNamara wanted to a war with Vietnam because that nation dared to use the letters N, A, and M, which were a part of his own name. McNamara's secret desire was to change his name to Vietnamara. This is documented as fact. McNamara was a sick man.

I barely lived back then in those dark times before self flushing toilets and phones that tell you who is calling.”

“I've been wondering if Don will become an anachronism in the upcoming years as the culture is about to lurch really hard beneath what these guys know. How long does it take for the target audience of the marketers to start laughing at the square marketing that continues up through the seventies?

I have the impression that this last episode shows us some pretty big chinks in Don's armor. He is beginning to be reactive rather than proactive. A guy like Don should have seen what was going to happen with his hitchhikers. It's like he went blind so he could try to be young and hip rather than facing the fact that 'the first one now will later be last'. It seems he was not very adept at avoiding being steamrolled into signing the contract. I know why he did it, but before that, he seemed to be too affected by the previous attempts to get him to sign. It's like he's becoming lost in this world where nearly everything has a place.

Maybe the whole era is merely tottering upon some kind of fulcrum just awaiting for the upcoming Kennedy assassination to knock it all over.

Has anybody thought about how badly these guys are going to dress in the next decade?”

“I wouldn't be so sure that there wasn't a segment of people hip enough to know they'd be getting drafted in a year or more. From what I've read of ancient history, some young people saw it coming before it came to be.”

“these movies are killer. sometimes they are visually mesmerizing, the wit flows like wine, and the violence is pretty much where it should be.”

“Darn, I spelled 'existence' wrong in my last post. Maybe I should memorize a dictionary.”

“They can have their meaningless laws. If necessary, I will memorize every book in existance and repeat them back to anyone who is interested.”

“District 9 is a great movie. The mellow beginning helps to create the tension later as the action builds.

In my mind, the movie removes the mask from the corporate government complex in an effective way. I mean, we are all used to corporations being behind the 'evil' in sci fi films, but this movie got me to feel the anger about it like I haven't in a while.

Believe me, if I were the main character of 'District 9' I would not not have been so kind to the people who knowingly caused all that suffering whether they were Nigerians or corporate suits and the mercenaries who worked for them.”
