Both major political parties in America are phony. Recently their phoniness has been on full display. First the Republicans and their phony outrage over moveon.org’s ad depicting a General as betraying the United States when he gave a semi-positive report on troop surge in Iraq. Now comes the Democrat phony outrage over something Rush Limbaugh said about people posing as soldiers telling lies, he called them “Phony Soldiers”.
Yes our major political parties love to be outraged by meaningless things the other side does. Why? Because it gets their own side rilled up, behind them, ready to “stand up”, and most important pledge lots of money to their phony campaigns.
In my previous post, I suggested something these politicians could get done. That is after all what real politicians are supposed to do, get things done. Not waste time and money writing letters of condemnation. They’re all phony! Let’s do away with this two party system and get some real movers and shakers in office. I’m all in favor of the “None of the Above” box on the ballet.
I am a proponent of efficiency and like Al Gore, think we should, as humans, reduce our “carbon footprint”. So I propose that we shorten words in an effort to speak less and reduce the amount of carbon-dioxide that we emit every day.
First word that we should shorten is “disgruntled”, does this word really need the negative prefix “dis”? Have you every heard someone being “gruntled”? No. Well there is my point why do we need to put a prefix on a word never used positively?
Next word would be “inept”, I don’t think I have met any ept people but I sure have met a few inept people. Let’s just shorten this word and remove the prefix “in.”
There are many other words like these: overwhelmed, disdain , unflappable, etc.
Please be sure to leave any words you can think of in the comments of this post. If you could, post them soon, because I plan on taking this in a bill to congress. Maybe congress could get *something* done this decade.
You may already be aware of my dislike for all most things Disney, but the evil genius behind this clip has got me reconsidering my temperament towards them. Not so long ago my wife heard the kids from a distance singing some song she had not heard before. Curious she got closer to apprehend what the song may be. To her utter surprise she heard the words being sung “Shake, shake, shake your peenus” and quickly put a stop to the singing. I don’t know for a fact that the producers of the Mickey Mouse Club House Show were planing on the natural tendency of kids to enunciate words wrong. This does, however, seem suspicious given their proclivity towards including lewd references in their products. Play the clip at your own risk, it will be stuck in your head and please remove all children from the room before doing so.
Here he comes mister Lego hair with a stupendous plan to make everyone healthy. Not unlike his promise that Christopher Reeve would still be alive if he was in charge of stem cell research, John Edwards is promising in his campaign to be the next president with the best hair and to provide health care for everyone. The best part about his proposal is mandatory check ups. Well I for one can’t wait for my nanny government to require me to go to the doctors. It was a tough enough job for my mother to get me to go.
I recently saw Bourne Whatever. I was wondering why directors feel the need to add shaky cam to all fight scenes these days. Ok we get it, it’s a crazy fight, everything is spinning and shaking when they get hit… this awful filming technique it seems could be blamed on The Blair Witch project, which was more a result of a low budget film then any sophisticated technique. Hopefully this useless visual effect will soon go by the way side much like “Bullet-Time”, which was made famous by the Matrix and vanished after being mocked in animated films like Shrek. About the only thing gained by some from this visual effect is nausea.
I will try to make this positive because I have been asked to be more upbeat in my posts, to make a difference in the world, to affirm the great energy in everyone…. ugh! Onto the topic at hand. How serious is email? Well apparently very. It seems that when one sends an email the receiver often takes on the position of a professor grading a term paper. I like to call this, in a positive way of course, anal-retentive or a someone with a superiority complex (that’s P.C. for arrogant). Look if I was trying to win a Pulitzer with every email I send I would spend hours poring over ever word, editing, and re-editing to craft the perfect prose. Yes I get it you care deeply about spelling and grammar. It’s because of this that we are forced to use time consuming spell checkers, when all I was trying to do was send a QUICK note.
Join me as I use email for as much trivial conversation as possible, this is me being positive (I know, it sounds contrived).
Somehow Disney World gets away with the ridiculous tag line “Where Dreams Come True.” Well I have now been to Disney and I can confidently say my dreams did not come true. Well except for the dream I had the night before, were I dreamed of standing in long lines in the hot sun and buying food at double what it normally costs. So who’s dreams actually come true at Disney? The share holders and owners of Disney who dream of extortion with over-done over-the-top theme’s, bad acting, and terrible music (um… Phil Collins & Elton John, nuff said).
Yes that is my head, where worthless thoughts reside. I'm yelling at you. So yell back. More about the blog can be found on the about page or check out my very first and best worst post.
