  1. Past hour
  2. Next one. "Be reasonable. This is my case." "Your case?" "Red John's mine." "Red John doesn't belong to anyone." "He belongs to me."
  3. Yes. As a point of trivia, I like to note that he plays characters in the MCU (Steve Rogers/Cap), in Scott Pilgrim's verse (Lucas Lee, the 2nd of 7 evil exes), and the 20th century Fox movies (Johnny Storm.) Not many actors can say that. Your turn!
  4. Considering me, that would normally be the way to bet. In this instance, it was not.... Try again, please.
  5. Today
  6. I'm not sure if I'm familiar with this?
  7. Yeah, you got your dead cat and you got your dead dog On a moonlight night, you got your dead toad frog Got your dead rabbit and your dead raccoon The blood and the guts, they're gonna make you swoon
  8. Yesterday
  9. I'll go out on a limb and say the giraffe. An elephant seems likely also, but if a mother elephant was protecting her calf and had to jump over a creek to chase her prey away, I bet she could jump the creek. It may not be the prettiest or athletic jump in the world, but a jump nonetheless. So I'm ruling them out.
  10. Take a whiff on me, that ain't no rose Roll up your window and hold your nose
  11. I could have sworn I added Erin. Looks like she's veering away from the US. George
  12. Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song I had his other songs in my head and I couldn't get it until that clue.
  13. Last week
  14. Doug Wilson’s movement is light in the loafers compared to its Islamic equivalent, Jihadism. But with big enough believing, one day it could be as “spiritually mature” as the Taliban, who has made it illegal for girls and women to talk in public. Voting rights? An issue for mere babes in tha werd.

    Saturday Night

    Rare extended version:
  16. You may be correct... I did a little numerical research (AI OF COURSE) and that average of wow ambassadors to rock attendees is greater than even in 1974 when the first 1000 ambassadors were commissioned...
  17. Yes I've heard of household voting as opposed to one man/woman one vote. I wanted to know what AI said about the early Catholic Church and it appears in basic agreement with paleo-confederate views. Here's the response: Did the traditional Catholic Church of the last century believe in "household voting" as opposed to allowing women to vote? While the Catholic Church never officially adopted a stance on women's suffrage, the idea of "household voting," where the male head of the household casts the vote for the entire family, was not a formal doctrine or teaching of the Catholic Church in the last century. However, Strong resistance to women's suffrage was prevalent within the Catholic community, particularly among conservative segments. Many Catholics, like others at the time, expressed concerns about the potential impact of women's voting rights on family life and traditional gender roles. Some even linked women's suffrage with socialism, which they believed opposed Christian values. Catholic authorities promoted a gender system that attributed different roles to men and women, emphasizing women's roles in maternity, education, and family care, while men were expected to handle public and economic affairs. The notion of women's subservience to their husbands was also present within Catholic teachings of the early 20th century. This perspective could have implicitly supported the idea that the male head of household should represent the family's political interests, rather than women voting independently. It's important to remember that despite these prevalent attitudes, there were dissenting voices within the Catholic Church who supported women's suffrage. Therefore, while the concept of "household voting" was not an official Catholic teaching, the prevailing views on gender roles and family structure within the Church, especially in the early 20th century, aligned with and reinforced the societal norms that resisted women's individual participation in the political sphere.

  18. And if it’s NOT possible, just apply that foundational hermeneutic: if it doesn’t fit, you got to MAKE it fit. Make the numbers whatever they need to be. What a tremendous truth!
  19. During the absolute height of the WOW program, Wierwille had a dream of sending out 1,000 WOW Ambassadors, which was essentially a self-funded, uncompensated sales force. I think it might have been the the Bicentennial (1976). I could be mistaken on the year. I don't recall if that goal was ever reached. Well, my point is, it's almost comical to think they could ever come anywhere near a goal of 900 WOW Ambassadors, given the current state of affairs. As Twinky said, "In their dreams!". edit: I suppose anything is possible if you redefine WOW Ambassador.
