I can't believe nobody likes this clip.

When I linked it I had visions of being nominated for member of the month.

Sure, we don't actually have that but I thought you guys would have gone to the big guy and demanded that we actually start a member of the month and I would obviously be the sole nominee off the strength of my great link.

All day long when nobody was around I'd mimic the narrator. "White meat, dark meat, all gets carved". It kept me giggling and in a good mood all f***ing day.

I don't get you people at all sometimes.

Did TR do that, Ken? I don't know the story.

After an argument with his girl friend TR DID go home and shoot his neighbors dog. That's all I know about it.

You might do well to read REASSESSING THE PRESIDENCY: The Rise Of Executive Power And The Decline Of Freedom. Edited by John V. Denson and published by The Ludwig Von Mises Institute.

Another book you might find interesting is, BULLY BOY: The Truth About Theodore Roosevelts Legacy, by Jim Powell.

About the book:

"How does one go about appraising a man like Theodore Rooesvelt? If you're like most historians, you look at his charismatic personality, his dynamic lifestyle, or maybe his intentions. Fortunately for us, Jim Powell is not like most historians.

"Powell looks at Roosevelt's actions -- and their consequences, especially the unintended ones. T.R.'s campaign against monopolies hurt consumers and protected politically-connected monopolies; his conservation policies harmed the environment; his stricter food and drug policies raised prices and made good drugs harder to get.

"Powell shows how Roosevelt set the standard for big government, championed the income tax and intrusive foreign policy. Joining the wars of others for little or no reason. His reckless policies set the standard for Wilson, Johnson, and George W. Bush.

"A thorough examination of a man often considered one of the greatest U.S. presidents, showing how his policies still plague us today."
(Review by Laissez Faire Books.)

Another of Powell's books you might be interested in is; WILSON'S WAR; How Woodrow Wilson's Greatest Blunder Led To Hitler, Stalin, And World War II.

You have said that nobody knows what led to World War I, well, this gives you a good insight into the cause, but not all of it. That would require reading quite a few books . . . dozens of books in fact.

Mark Twain met T.R. on a couple of occasions and described him as being "completely insane."

Now I'm being mocked by the Bluesman.

I don't even have to bother with a suicide note. I'll just leave this page open. The cops will be able to figure out the rest.

I'm sure the converse is also true, but that's okay . . . different tastes.

CCos, check what I wrote on the THANKSGIVING thread, might give you a laugh...

Check what I wrote on the Thanksgiving thread, it might make =you= laugh.

And yeah I giggled a little. My neighbors probably think I have a little schoolgirl stashed away in here.

This is the mock-trailer from Grindhouse, Rodriquez and Tarantino's homage to Seventies B-Movies.

A few months ago I purchased a boxed set of 50 horror movies on ten discs; they are basically public domain movies that were compiled and sold for $9.99 at the local Circuit City. In my book, the real 70's horror movies take themselves so seriously, that they are hilarious.

For my part, I enjoyed the overkill in the Eli Roth trailer. It was funny. But not as funny as the trailers for the Gruesome Twosome or Blood Feast, which are the real deal.

AC

P.S. I'll give my two cents on Grindhouse when I get the chance, but this post pretty much sums it up.

P.P.S. Check out the trailer for MACHETE. Hilarious. "They f***ed with the wrong Mexican." LOL.

Well, I'd say TR was prescient: the USA should muscle up. The Enlightenment Civilization was heading for a smash. As it did, the effects of which are still with us. It might have been better for the Allies and the Central Powers to fight to a peace of exhaustion. I don't know. Still, it wasn't in the cards. After losses beyond imagination on each side, someone was gonna win and someone was gonna lose. Otherwise, it would been for...nothing. And that would have been to monstrous to contemplate, for the civilians on each side. After the US entered the war in April 1917, the deal was done. The Allies would win. Was it "our war?" Again, beats the shit out of me. It became it. And, hey, kids, you thought =this= was fun? Just a =warm=up! Check back in 20 years for some =real= action!

Then you're a horrible judge of character!

I found the humor in it. But I'd still rather watch reruns of the Stooges.
