It is ironic that he died in the same week. :D

Tried to see him once when I was in Hawaii but the show was all sold out. Would have loved to have seen him!

Used to be a well respected newspaper. Now it appears that it is on par with the National Enquirer! :eek:

Strange, as somehow he has inserted right wing and left wing politics into the fray. Weird!

No, Raggedyann, I have always felt that I was like the young Claudius in that magnificent PBS mini-series, I, Claudius . By the end of the mini-series, Claudius became the Roman Emperor because all the other members of his family had killed each other... :D :D :D http://snafu.mit.edu/ndjcl/claudius...

If I were you Joe, I would be flattered! Obviously you are a valued member of this forum. You must have been real good at ducking. :D

Re: Yep...It's Official

Since the majority of differing opinions have either been booted off or see little reason to catch hell for posting their opinion, this site sure has lost alot of appeal. As I predicted, it (this site) has unfortunately been reduced to mostly "Happy Birthday" threads as well as posts endi...

This entire media circus revolving around Imus - and his firing - is a disgusting, complex, and hypocritical issue. Imus was tossed into the **** can - with no regard for his career and what he has done in his life. He probably thought his remark was hip at some level - in what he perceived in this...

Re: RaggedyAnn...

Trouble is, defining "...meaningful, productive and intelligent" is relative and subjective at best. Can you objectively define this for me? For example, I think Michael Moore is a damn fool, an idiot of the lowest order. However, I've always believed an idiot should be given a fair chanc...

Censorship is never...positive. Free speech is a good thing but with responsibility. Please, can someone explain to me in a logical way why there there is a need to protect the use of gutter talk on the radio or TV? Don't bother with the slippery slope explanations as I'm not buying it! I really do...

And now on a lighter note:

Was just watching Olbermann and he said something to the effect that when obnoxious commercials like "Head On" pull out, you know your finished! LOL!

Watching Lou Dobbs Tonight... fabulous interview. Hope to get a transcript to share here. Dobbs is interviewing several African Americans who agree this issue has been blown out of proportion, that Imus was used as a scapegoat. Claim Jesse and Al have had their time in the spotlight... it's time fo...
