From Beldar, Lurch has run out of time for bringing suit against the Swift Vet guys for defamation of (ahem) character:
Seriously, though, Senator, some folks might draw the inference that rather than your having just forgotten the one-year anniversary of the publication of Unfit for Command  oopsies!  you’re instead desperately afraid to ever face cross-examination under oath, or [to face] document subpoenas of yourself and your hagiographer Doug Brinkley, or the rest of the brilliant spotlight that accompanies a public lawsuit. Folks might become more and more convinced that you’ve very deliberately let most state statutes of limitations expire already, and that you’ll continue to allow the clock to run on any that haven’t yet.
Or, y’know, he might be too busy appeasing Terezzzzzzzzzzzzza.
Statute of Limitations.
That was kind of intended (see Lurch).
What a shame. Morticia had Gomez’s plane crash so she could marry Lurch.
…does that make Edwards Cousin Itt?
I never knew Itt had two ts. The more you know.
But I think Kerry obliquely addressed the Swift Boat issue when he was in Switzerland:
Reality. You can’t privilege your own lens, he says now.
Tuh-ray-zuh should watch her back these days…I hear Laurie David is loaded and coming available.
Back O/T, why on earth would Kerry want to sue O’Neill et al. when the Sinistrosphere has already beatified him and his martyrdom at the hands of the infidel Swiftboaters? Surely JFK isn’t keeping his military records a closely-held secret because they vindicate him and belie the claims of the SBVs. There’s nowhere for him to go but down right now.
If you take a look at the complaint in this case, http://www.vvlf.org/documents/PH1-893405-v1-SHERWOOD_COMPLAINT.PDF, you can see that Kerry’s supporters (1) changed their stories dramatically or (2)scurried like rats when they were called to testify under oath.
#6, your link-fu is not pleasing to Master Dan.
So true, Jeffersonian.
“Only a master of evil, Darth.”
On the subject of the Statute of Limitations.. I haven’t got much to say about Lurch… but..
I did see Super Bad today.. and it’s funny.. real funny.. in a lowbrow , dick joke kinda way .. which suits me fine.. I haven’t laughed so hard in a long time.. It’s like all the weird, funny, uncomfortable moments I remember from high-school (Class of ’76) all compiled into one long night..
The Fast Times of Ridgemont High for a new generation.. (albeit without Phoebe Cates most excellent breasts…)
Well, that is a major exception (speaking as a class of 78 guy).
As another class of 78 guy, I completely agree, Dan. I don’t even remember the rest of the movie after that scene.
[…] to Dan Collins on the Beldar […]
Then what’s the point?!
I still watch that scene multiple times, in slow motion and zoom, every time I watch that movie. Those breasts are even more impressive on a 210″ screen!
I’ll be over shortly. Where do you live again?
North suburban Indianapolis.
Pablo – Funny you should say that. As Dan mentioned getting together in June of next year, I was just discussing with my better half inviting everybody over for a weekend of good whiskey, agave, Hold ‘Em, golf, and making fun of liberals.
Mmmmmm…party with Phoebe Cates’ breasts?
I’m in.
We have the beginning of a fine guest list. A weekend of debauchery where I have to do the clean up would be a whole heck of a lot of fun. I started to call it a guys weekend, but it would not be the same without Zelda, Synova, Pelligri, Darleen, Maggie, cynn, Sementikkkleo, Diane, and many others.
Indianapolis? I could maybe get there from south suburban Atlanta in a day.
If it’s okay for me to bring along cops from four states.
McGehee – I drove home from Alpharetta in 8 hours, no tickets and a wife yammering in my ear the whole way. I played some fine golf courses down your way earlier this summer (The Frog, Georgia National, The Hooch, Pine Isle).
JD, if there’s karaoke, I’m there. ;D
Maggie – Are you kidding me?! My in-laws are Vietnamese. Get 10 of them together, a bottle of Hennessy, and a microphone, and you have hours of amusement.
HA HA! I never know what I’ll be doing that far in advance or else I’d commit to it. anyway, sorry for the threadjack.
I am going to try to get something together in the fall. I was thinking that the weekend of a home football game would be fun, maybe the weekend of 30 SEP (my birthday is the 29th) when we host the Denver Broncos, or the weekend of 4 NOV, when we host the New England Patriots. But, that is just brainstorming.
Can I come? Can I? Can I?

Hello? Is this thing on?
Have you ever seen the way I drive on interstates? Have I mentioned I drive a lifted Bronco?
What most people call traffic jams, I call speed bumps. Unfortunately, local law enforcement takes a dim view.
Hence, I tend to take back roads, which takes longer.
McGehee – My first car was an early Bronco, restored, with a 6″ lift kit on it, so I know of which you speak.
BJ – Of course you are welcome. Everyone is, even timmah and Caric.
