Heart - All I want to do is make love to you.

the god damned truth

The message of this song: Mommy’s baby, Daddy’s maybe. Hmm, I could turn this into a six word story.

Another one who looks familiar, oh, I know why. She looks like a girl I used to work with. Bigger breasts though.

Were the ’90s really a golden age of cartoons?

No, sorry.  The golden age of cartoons were the 1940s which saw the introduction of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Droopy, Tom and Jerry, Bambi, so on and so forth. Look at the names associated with them, Chuck Jones, Tex Avery, Friz Freleng, Hanna & Barbera. And consider what they had to work with. These are avowed classics. This is a golden age. The 90s? Are you kidding me?

Outside of the 40s, it’s the 80s before the 90s.

Not to be ingorant, but I vaguely remember from High School (my last general American history class) that the USA split over other issues that probably shouldn’t be boiled down to just freeing the slaves.

I mean, I know it was a factor but I get a little uncomfortable when people discuss how war is used to free people - when the government was moving right along ok with some slaverly but had other things to consider.

Now I feel uncomfortable writing this post - I’m really trying not to offend.

I’m no history expert, but what I do know is that “The War of Northern Aggression was about other issues” is the standard party line of those still sympathetic to Dixie.

The argument I hear from them is usually “It was about state’s individual freedoms!”

To which I answer: “Freedom to do what?”

I’m sure there were other peripheral reasons. Slavery was the biggie.

Tariffs on foreign imports (which hurt the South and benefited the North).

Let me put it this way, you can’t rely on human idealism.  There are self-interests involved in any idealistic action.  Slavery was the key for the Civil War, but the engine behind it was an economic interest.

I recommend reading “The Great Tax Wars” by Steven R. Weisman.

One thing I’ve learned from reading and discussing is everything in antebellum America springs from America’s original sin.  I think some people would be surprised how far you can get on ideology.

But as with all wars, the American Civil War was over land and resources.

…captured assassins of kings in late medieval Europe often had a date with this device, which is actually an iron pincer with hemicylindrical blades that formed a long narrow tube when closed together. Teeth or spikes lined the inside of the blades, which are first heated until red-hot before being clamped on the victim’s penis. When his sex organ is “cooked” enough, it is then torn out from his body.

There’s doubt as to whether or not the iron maiden is real. Not the metal band, they’re delighting fans worldwide every year, but the chamber with the spikes. Some people call them torture devices, I call them disincentive devices.

I hope they win and just piss everybody off.

This is a bitch. This is the reason you don’t cheat on your wife or girlfriend. This is the broad who will take something meant for her and her alone and share it with the world because, despite what she may have said, she’s no longer satisfied with being the piece on the side. There is no cure for a bitch. Only prevention.
