Dear 3rdnlng, Although I respect the creative process that may have been exercised to produce "assmudgeon," "bitchmudgeon," and the like, I have yet to see a legal claim, copyright or otherwise, to the use of the terms. Out of respect for the creative process, in the future I may request permission, however these requests are not guaranteed prior to my use of "assmudgeon" or "bitchmudgeon." Perhaps you should consider a legal claim in your sig, a la DC Tom. Regards, Levi

This just in: Leftist =/= Liberal That is all. You can now return to your regularly scheduled bitching and moaning.

Das raciss®

For it to hurry up and arrive?

No secret Santa either, most probably. It's too bad, really. I've developed a certain appreciation for the used Mamma Mia! soundtrack CD Tom gave me last year.

No ****. And what kind of impact does that have on that generation's kids? Also: I wasn't talking about affirmative action in the job market, I was strictly speaking of higher education (mea culpa for not being specific enough).

Personally, I've always felt that the way affirmative action is used in this country is crap. Being a different race does not make one automatically have less opportunities than people of another race. I believe that economic standing, on the other hand, is something that should be used in "affirmative action" decisions.

What the !@#$? The only way you knew about Motorhead was from redneck soap operas? Really?

Ahem. He allegedly shot someone. What are you, a DA?

Maybe

As long as it takes.

That is great.

I have a question for the Boston TBDers too... How the !@#$ do you stand it?

RIP ODB

A B.S. is a college degree, Chef, it's not short for "those bull **** GEDs."

+1 +1 In fact, the only offense I took at Jim's comment was the implication that I was related to you Damn straight. Hey, it's not what you wear, it's how you wear it. Trust me, I'm a Doctor. Pic related.

I have a few I really like: Do you know why you never read about suicides in the newspaper? Because it's not news. - Joey Comeau I eat vegetables in case I'd feel worse otherwise. And, so I can't blame anything on vitamin deficiencies. So I can be like: this is me, this is exactly how ****ty I feel. - John Campbell If you gave Falwell an enema he could be buried in a matchbox. - Christopher Hitchens (I really didn't like Falwell) and... Please nigga, I'm immune to all viruses; I get that cocaine, it cleans out my sinuses. - His Holiness Pope John Paul II

I suppose this isn't the time or place for GQ vs. Esquire pros and cons

Hey, I'm not the one sitting here picking apart GQ photos.

Damn. Guess that means I'm a baby boomer now. My self-loathing finally makes sense.

SUPER BUMP

Well, it is child abuse.

In all seriousness, my first middle name is Jack. After one of my uncles. My other two middle names are William and Cecil. Welcome to Anglo-American life. The incessant need to give your kid four names.

Actually, yes. It's my first middle name. A lot of my friends actually call me "Jack" when they drink too much. Don't like it? No? Too bad.
