Aha! On OxygenTV I found the 2005 version of “Pride and Prejudice”, with Kiera Knightly as Elizabeth and Mcsomebody as the condescending d***head, Mr. Darcy-looks amusing...

Xshub finally ordered the mossberg today. I feel relieved. The proximity of the election finally spurred him to action.

Good! Even if November ends up smelling like roses, I think that things have been so bad for so long that it is still going to be unsettled for awhile-we must keep safe, especially those who live in cities-I remember crime was high (especially break-ins) in SA in the Carter years, and
still being up for almost a year after Reagan took office-just my take...

Yes I agree, the election is part of it but a severe economic downturn is another concern. The spate of “wilding” incidents gives one an idea of what’s possible.

Good summery of GM's bailout and subsequent bankruptcy. Essentially, Mitt was right.

who watches this crap??? i would not even know it existed but for articles saying that it beat out the RNC for viewership of the convention. Seriously, the stuff that people waste their time on boggles my mind.

I’ve seen a snippet or two on The Soup. Anna Nicole started all of this. Of course she was retarded or on some serious drugs or both, so it’s not really her fault.

Yum. It’s the first band hoagie day of the year.
