Benny, it looks like a nice relaxing place. I guess if somebody is going to stick you, they don't care where they do it. Do you have a lot of gun crime there? I think Jazzy needs a trip to the Hoo Hoo Hut next to Deadman's Hollow to forget about his B. Franklin dream. lol! Cool yer mum is listening in. I hope they make it to your show!

Jazzy, pack your bags and go to the Hoo Hoo Hut. lmao! Ask Benny for directions.

kundalini, my condolences on the death of your father. I'm glad you discovered Joe's music can sooth your soul. It's a beautiful thing.

I think there will be a house cleaning in the White House later this year or next year.

Powell has intentions of leaving and Rice may want to return to teaching.

Cheney - who knows. I thought it would have been good for Bush to drop Cheney (tell us medical reasons) and bring in a new VP, but that did not happen.

I also thought there would have been an October Surprise where Bush would all of a sudden find Bin Laden to cement his election - but apparently they haven't found him yet.

A change needs to be made in the Cabinet - but who and when, not sure.

About the Constitution - did you follow the IL Senate Race - Obama v. Keyes.

Keyes claims to be a big strict Constitutionalist.

What are your opinions on Keyes?

People in Illinois did not think much of Keyes nor did most Republicans in Illinois - he got toasted there. The Republican party there is in shambles - the Dems are in control there.

I found this on MSNBC By Tom Curry

about a new democratic party leader

it may work

never know who would respond to a want ad

Texas Story (Those Texans are really full of BS)

A Texan is drinking in a New York Bar.

He gets a call on his cell phone. He hangs up, grinning from ear to ear and orders a round of drinks for everybody in the bar because, he announces, his wife has just produced a typical Texan baby boy weighing 25 pounds.

Nobody can believe that any new baby can weigh in at 25 pounds, but the Texan just shrugs, "That's about average back home, folks. Like I said, my boy's a typical Texan baby boy."

Congratulations showered him from all around and many exclamations of "WOW!" were heard.

One woman actually fainted due to sympathy pains.

Two weeks later the Texan returns to the bar.

The bartender says "Say, you're the father of that typical Texan baby that weighed 25 pounds at birth, aren't you? Everybody's been makin' bets about how big he'd be in two weeks. We were gonna call you ... so how much does he weigh now?"

The proud father answers, "Seventeen pounds."

The bartender is puzzled and concerned. "What happened? He already weighed 25 pounds the day he was born."

The Texan father takes a slow swig from his Lone Star, wipes his lips on his shirt sleeve, leans in to the bartender and proudly says, "Had him circumcised."

Elton John Developing Rock-Star TV Comedy

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Elton John (news) is making his first foray into series television by developing an ABC comedy about an aging rock superstar and the people around him, Daily Variety reported in its Thursday edition.

The flamboyant musician told the Hollywood trade paper that the as-yet-untitled show would not be based on himself but rather a mix of other fellow pop icons like Rod Stewart (news), Mick Jagger (news), Freddie Mercury (news) and David Bowie (news).

"It's not about me, but about everybody we've encountered over the past 30 years," it quoted him as saying. "We've met every star and seen every misbehavior. And it's about the people around the star, who have to put up with them. It's an upmarket 'Spinal Tap."'

Daily Variety said John's longtime business manager Bob Halley came up with the basic concept about three years ago, and his boss warmed to the idea. Songwriter Bruce Roberts, producer Michael Edelstein and "Sex and the City" screenwriter Cindy Chupack eventually entered the mix.

A full history is being developed for the rock star character -- including music spanning the '70s, '80s, '90s and today. John has already written a song for the project, "Him and Us," which will appear on his 43rd album "Peachtree Road," due in U.S. stores on Tuesday.

Not sure if you've seen this, but if not take a look... the game's called "Bush Shoot Out."

Star Wars Fans

If you are a member of Hyperspace (if you want to pay to be a fan of a star wars web site - I do not) you can download the trailer sometime today.

Or you can go see The Incredibles this weekend (I will) and the trailer will be before the movie.

Looks like Kobe cannot carry the Lakers all by him self - he got exactly what he wanted.

He scored nearly 1/2 the points for the Lakers and still couldn't carry the team.

Cool game

Zinc, re Keyes vs Obama... I think if Alicia were a little older she woulda done better LOL...

Zinc Master, there are lots of great games on that site, here's another topical one:

Two stoners were having barbecue chicken at a local hotspot when suddenly the lady at the next table starts choking and turning purple. One of the stoners takes command " Clear the way, stay back we know how to handle this!" At that point the other dude drops his pants and gets down on all fours directly in front of the woman who is by now convulsing on the floor. The second stoner goes behind the first and plants a long tongue wipe up the others a-hole! The lady jerked violently a couple of times and then coughed violently projecting a chicken bone across the room.

The two stoners stand up and one says to the crowd " Gotta love that Hindlick Manouver, it works every time!!!"

Yes it is interesting/disburbing how many things the fed govt is involved in - you only named the big items. Their position is that they are protecting us from each other or from big business (I am not defending the position).

I have said for some time that social security should be given a drop dead date - meaning, we will continue to support it until, lets say 2050. After that date, gone, done, stick a fork in it. So that now, we can plan for our own futures. It will also protect our grandparents, parents, ect who currently rely or plan to rely on that income when they retire.

Now, SSD needs to remain for the time being as well as unemployment, at least for now.

'Come Bite Me!' Right...

TAIPEI (Reuters) - A man leaped into a lion's den at the Taipei Zoo on Wednesday to try to convert the king of beasts to Christianity, but was bitten in the leg for his efforts.

"Jesus will save you!" the 46-year-old man shouted at two African lions lounging under a tree a few meters away.

"Come bite me!" he said with both hands raised, television footage showed.

One of the lions, a large male with a shaggy mane, bit the man in his right leg before zoo workers drove it off with water hoses and tranquilizer guns.

How long until the Scott Peterson jury comes back with a verdict?

I just started writing a fusion tune in 7/8 and it fucking kicks ass!!!!! I can't wait to get it done and let you all have a listen...

Michelle I'm glad you liked the calavera, what an honor if you print it and show it to someone else.

Old but funny joke !

Two guys were moving fast in a supermarket with their shopping carts and they bump. One guy says to the other “I’m sorry sir, but I’m looking for my wife”

“What a coincidence, I’m also looking for my wife and I’m desperate now”

“Well, maybe I can help, How does your wife look like?”

“My wife is tall, 25 years old, brown long hair, green eyes, well shaped legs, firm breast, fantastic butt, well, she is very pretty. How about yours?
