1. Thanks to Mark C. for the Classic Comedies Collection, and to Michele M. for the Marx Brothers Silver Screen Collection. My wife turned me on to old black and white comedies a few years back, and now we can enjoy them the way God intended us to: on a shiny metallic-coated platter read by a laser, the information then streamed as a series of ones and zeros to an LCD display, where it’s turned back into a recognizable moving image.
2. Speaking of DVDs, I have several duplicates that I’m looking to pass along to anybody interested: DePalma’s The Untouchables SE, The Philadelphia Story single disc (with Cary Grant, Kate Hepburn, and Jimmy Stewart), Martin Scorsese’s Casino, and Phonebooth (with Colin Farrell). I’ll let these go for $6.50 each (shipping included), or the whole lot for $20. First come first serve. Leave a message in the comments.
I also have a pair of 128MB memory sticks for the G5. $20 to anybody who can use them.
3. Suddenly-famous communist Giuliana Sgrena emailed me the following cryptic message earlier today:
You wrote that yes to my red COCK? What you say? Please to explain. Like you Bush? Or can you to the people say out loud “spongy length”?
My response: “Riddle me this, honey: How is Giuliana Sgrena like a period?”
Maybe puzzling over that will distract her enough that she keeps her yap shut for a few days— just long enough for the world to go back to having no idea who in the hell she is.
Oh. And here’s her car, by the way. You know—the one riddled by a hail of gunfire and shot at by tanks.
4. I love the Dusty girls for their shirts. Really. Can’t get enough of the poly/cotton blends.
5. “If pulling for Hezbollah is wrong, then I don’t want to be right!”*
6. Then again, maybe freedom really is on the march. DAMN YOU MR BUSH! DAMN YOU AND YOUR FILTHY OPTIMISM!
Phila Story and Casino? Email me. Thanks.
I heard on the radio today that the pro-Syria protest was “padded” by toadies. I dunno how someone could come to that conclusion (verify), but I’m willing to give a whirl up the flagpole.
We all know that Hizbollah is known for some shoddy shit, but I swear something is fishy about that Hizbollah babe that Glenn posted earlier today.
Proof of BUSHITLER!!

Man, that car is in amazing shape, after–what? 400 bullets, wasn’t it? Does Ms. Sgrena drive a Volvo or something? Because I think there could be a great promo in here someplace…
Christ, I look at that hunk of twisted metal that was once a car and I can barely conceive of what a hell it must have been to have been trapped inside as those bloodthirsty, raging, gun loving American psychopath crusaders pumped round after round into the car.. 5.56 rounds.. .50 Cals.. depleted uranium tank shells.. all in an desperate attempt to silence Giuliana Sgrena before she could tell the world the truth about the peace loving freedom fighters….
Giuliana Sgrena is a true hero of the people..
and a true hero for Allah.
M’assalama,
Zack
wonder what the other side of the car looks like.
Me, I’m not exactly a ballistics expert, but my guess is that if the kinds of rounds our troops would be using went through one side of a car at least some of them are going to come out the other side.
Yeah, gail, ‘specially if they shot the car with tank rounds and .50 cal machine guns.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm……….spongy length……..
Dusty girl protesting with a gaggle of Hezbollah men. Is she the padded toadie? ‘Cause she looks padded.
How hard is this to figure out? The day before the rally word gets out that there are going to be good looking chesty chicks in tight shirts at such-and-such a location tomorrow. Everyone shows up and the chicks are holding signs and men, being men, chime in with the appropriate sign waving and “Yeah! What she said!”
Damn. I sound like a Democrat with my little conspiracy theory.
the word is “large”. As in large boobies, no doubt.
I think she looks like a drag queen.
You talking about the Assad sympathizer or Sgrena, gail? ‘Cause that would explain the red COCK.
I wonder if she knowa what frode means?
I meant the busty Hezbollah chick Ana was talking about. Sgrena isn’t feminine enough.
The existence of a pro-independence movement in Lebanon doesn’t mean that everything is magically OK. Who thinks otherwise?
What we’re seeing is two major factions of Lebanese society holding peaceful demonstrations. It’s called dialog, and it sure beats car bombs. They’re trying to demonstrate that they have widespread support; the will of the people is starting to matter.
I wish Hizballah didn’t have the support that they do have, especially from pretty Lebanese women, but they do (for now), and it’s something the Lebanese need to deal with. So far, they’re off to a good start. As the Hizballah demonstration shows, we’re not witnessing a miraculous overnight transformation. What we’re witnessing is called progress.
If Chimpy McHitlerburton weren’t breathing down Assad’s neck, this dialog wouldn’t be happening at all, because the pro-independence people would be dead (think Hama) or too afraid to speak.
The women were supposed to be protesting in a different area than the men. And then the Dusty girl shows up in the boys department. Wearing that. With her hair all bleached and looking muy Western. Was she there to show what would happen to everyone’s sister and daughter if Syria pulled out? Where’s Encyclopedia Brown when we need him? I smell rat.
Actually the Bible is very explicit about the many reasons DLP is superior to LCD. I quoth the book of Videonomy: “Let not they screen burn in, nor the size of they screen be limited by the absence of electronics fabrication plants capable of fabricating a liquid crystal display greater than 2.35 cubits in diagonal length. Embrace thee instead the Most High of black levels, the ingenuity of Texas semiconductor manufacturers, and the miracle of digital natural image enhancement that only the Lord of telsvision technologies can deliver, forever and ever, amen.”
Okay, so why *is* she like a period? And are we talking full stop or menses?
I think Jeff was using the mathematical definition of “period” which is “The least interval in the range of the independent variable of a periodic function of a real variable in which all possible values of the dependent variable are assumed.”
. . . except with a lot more references to big tits and cocks.
Well, it had something to do with her being “Red” and a…well, woman thingie. But I was quite drunk.
You can quit any time you want to. I know. We all know.
Boy, that copy of Phonebooth (with Colin Farrell) just ain’t moving.

I honestly don’t see much difference. When I see explosions on a DLP set, they still look all pixelated.
Eh.
Things not to do when approaching a military checkpoint
gail. i’m no ballistics expert either. so it would help if we all saw the other side of the car…just as a matter of curiosity.
just being objective. i have no doubt the italian skank is full of shit, but if this is a picture of the car she was in then it would help, in the objective search of the truth of what really happened, to see the other side of the car.
I went to the site of the guy from #5 and left a comment. He deleted it. Maybe it was a little snarky but deleting it is a bit much, I think.
After all, doesn’t Dissent=Patriotism?
Since you’re down to Phone Booth, I suppose I’ll take that. Unless you think the Dusty shirts will fit me.
And if Sgrena is willing to show you her “spongy length,” I say take her up on it. It seems like the only way to discredit “journalists” these days.
Beto, doubt she knows Frode … now ask her about hair on the TOP of her lip, thats another story.
spamkiller: learned
As in: I learned what ‘Frode’ meant in that cool urban dictionary.. See what I mean? Nothing new under the sun.. just new words for it.. I always just called mine a soul patch.. maybe the word ‘soul’ in that context isnt PC anymore..
Why are you all embracing this term ‘spongey length’ ..? Who wants a ‘spongey length’ ? I dont know about you all but I much prefer the phrase ‘Turgid, rock hard length of titanium that could deflect uranium depleted rounds in a pinch, and of course last for hours without the help of Enzyte.’ But thats just me…
Turing word: trial
As in: Call today for your free trial size bottle of Enzyte and you’ll be livin’ large and laughin’ easy.. and never again suffer from ‘spongey length syndrom’ (SLS)1-800-TURGID-TODAY
Laurence Simon offers a proposed additional question for the driver’s licensing exam in Italy:
You are approaching a checkpoint where there are armed troops waving flashlights and firing warning shots over your vehicle. You:
a) Stop
b) Speed up
c) Immediately make a U-turn and head for the nearest cafe for expresso and gelato
d) Crap your pants
to which I add:
e) Scream and waive like an Arab terrorist to further get the Americans’ attention
f) Proceed upwind from checkpoint, throw up hands to surrender and wait for U.S. troops to pass out
g) Surrender to anyone on road prior to hitting checkpoint, explaining that Italy has a fine tradition of surrendering in modern times commencing with Ethiopia in 1896
h) Play “My Way†by Frank Sinatra on car horn as you approach
i) Put on sunglasses to cut down the glare from the flashlights
…..you are free to add to the list
j. Light up an unfiltered Camel and comment at length on the meaningless of life.
k. See if one of the troops is a girl and think about pinching her ass on the Via Veneto.
Gail,
# j belongs on the French driving test under ‘things to do as you approach Aux Deux Magots’.. But I understand your confusion.. France..Italy.. both Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys. The key difference is Italy is trying to redeem itself.. France revels in the title.

That was true in earlier DLP versions. The 3rd-gen chip from TI is flawless: no pixillation whatsoever.
Oops, I mean pixellation. Pixillation would mean your TV was converting images to pixies.
Turing word: Seven. Yes!
l. Lean out the window and scream about how the evil Americans are oppressing Iraqis and you are here to stop them.
Speaking of liars, cheats and scoundrals, did anyone happen to catch comments by George Soros in Spain- he basically complimented the spanish on their “sensible” reaction to terror.
Why can’t we get Soros into a car and send him toward an allied checkpoint ????
My word is “response” as in “The Spanish response to terror was to deep throat terrorist cock”.
Jeff, dude, Hal at Hellblazer devoted a whole page to you just to whine about your (and your commentators) commentary on the the Syrian Protests.. So whats got this guys panties all in a bunch? It sounds like he’s mostly pissed that youre able to generate a lot of comments because you have a lot of readers..
BPiS
People with no sense of humor live with their panties perpetually in a bunch. One views them and their panties with equal measures of pity and wry displeasure.
well put…
Also, they have the ironic postmodern sensibility of your average DARE instructor. Or the lady in the big hat who delivers your copy of Watchtower at 9 am on alternate Saturdays.
Are you off work today too Bee Piss?
Nope.. but PW makes a better break from work than 15 minutes at Torrefazione.
Turing word: make
yes, makes a better break than Torrefazione.. thats what I said.. quit repeating everything I say you damned artificial intelligence !
Hal at Hellblazer is insignificant. Hezbollah’s counter-demonstrations yesterday are beside the point. The fact is, those wishing Syria out Lebanon—as per the UN dictate (funny how selective these leftists can be about which UN resolutions matter, isn’t it?)—were unafraid to protest in the streets.
Let Hal twist his Bush hatred into triumphalism over Syrian agents and Hezbollah being able to produce a crowd; it just underscores how craven his political philosophy has become.
I mean, the minute I start feeling joy over a perceived Hezbollah triumph, it’s time for me to fall on my sword.
SeanM, have you seen Phonebooth? Jeff may be stuck with that one. Two wasted hours of Colin Farrel crying and whining like an Italian journalist begging for her freedom. Now that Marx Brothers collection that Jeff got…pure gold, man. I got one of those around Christmas. Hi-frickin-larious.
Groucho would have been really good in Phonebooth, actually.
However, now that theyve shown theyre unafraid, the ‘Syria Out’ crowd needs to turn to honing it’s promotional and advertising skills.. Perhaps at their next protest rally they can hire the Swedish Bikini Team to come out and sign autographs or something.. Or Brittney Spears is a good Republican girl that supports the march of democracy.. maybe she’d stop by and do a few numbers.. just tossing out a couple ideas..

.. or a WET Burka contest.. How cool would that be ?

Me, that is AWESOME.
Wonder what feature they had to leave off in order to keep it under $20k.
Perhaps it was the 3rd item on the list of what other viewers of this item have looked at … the Jack Rabbit Vibrator!
Seriously, I wouldn’t have to worry about deer jumping in front of my car with one of those.
I’m in awe of whoever got that posted.
