No it's not. I was diagnosed as hypo-manic a long time ago, and I find this kind of humor to be... well... humorless. Do you know what it is like being hypo-manic?
First off, it's like taking a pee before you even get a chance to zip open your fly. You're always three steps ahead of yourself, which can be awful dangerous if you get in your own way on a marble staircase.
And do you know what this does to relationships? I told you already. No wait, I didn't... ok... do you know what this does to relationships? You can't have any. Really, you can't stay put in bed long enough to... wait, did I ever tell you about... I'm having some problems...

That's funny.
And in real life: A young guy near here wanted to propose to his girlfriend. In a special way.
This particular young guy has a seat as a delegate for the state's biggest county, and shares a last name with an uncle who's a long-serving congressional representative, now senator. He's got the right to call himself "Esquire", if he's not too embarrassed by that absurd affectation (he's not), and he knows everybody important in city and state.
So he takes GF on a boat ride, during which they are suddenly hailed by the Marine Police squad and boarded for a "safety inspection", while a police helicopter hovers overhead, making everybody have to shout to be heard. There've been a lot of drunken boating accidents including fatalities this summer, and the couple and their friend the boat owner have been drinking. It seems like GF is about to be cuffed, when one of the water policemen finds a package. He hands it to the senator's nephew, who gets down on one knee, proffers a ring and asks GF to marry him.
Whole stunt at taxpayers' expense, while not a mile away the police commissioner is personally standing guard in the inner harbor, where the Crips and the Bloods were exchanging gunfire again over the weekend.
Oh, to finish the story. The bimbo said yes.

BO is an easy read...it's all there, no surprises...all you have to do is connect the dots, pretty obvious with his background associations, his vapid books about himself, his clouded school years, his voting record and lack of cred...his Chicago hood time...there is no excuse for not knowing BO...the risk you speak of does not exist
I never read his book(s) - but I assumed they'd be full of mumbo-jumbo. If I were running for president or senate or whatever and was writing a book towards that end, its safe to assume any good thing I ever did would be included in the book and anything bad, not so much. Whether the book is a clue to his personality, I'd first want to know whether he actually believes what he wrote or authorized someone to write. As for the rest, they may not be good things, but do they indicate narcissism?

Political Shell Games in the Great Northwet.
More on our local political frauds
And they once again have a compliant mainstream media carrying the water for local government. From today's Seattle Times article: Voters in 2003 and 2007 approved property-tax levies for parks, but those levies were designed to maintain regional facilities such as Marymoor Park and Weyerhaeuser Aquatic Center, not the neighborhood parks now in jeopardy.Technically correct - but again, that is NOT how local officials sold the parks levy to the people two years ago.
From the kingcounty.gov webpage on County Parks: In August 2007, King County voters overwhelmingly approved two modest property tax levies that help secure the future of King County's 25,000 acres of parks. Proposition 1, which passed by more than 63%, is a five-cent, six-year levy to replace the operating and maintenance levy that expired at the end of 2007. This levy will keep parks open, as well as restore maintenance to pre-2002 budget crisis levels.

OT:
For any of you interested in either Israel Advocacy or in the going-ons of the radical left on University campuses...
Daniel Freeman-Malloy the (unfortunately, Jewish) head of the Solditary for Palestinian Human Rights (SPHR) group at Toronto's York University has written himself something of a manifesto describing the struggle between pro- and anti- Israel forces on that campus.
He is perhaps best known for having sued York University and winning an undisclosed settlement from them (rumored to have been in the $700k range) for their taking disciplinary action against him after he organized an unlawful anti-israel rally several years ago.
Ever since that lawsuit, York University has been very loathe to take any disciplinary action against anyone and the campus is now a virtual anarchy, with controversial rallies taking place on a very regular basis.
I think it is interesting to see what he has to say, and I think other Lizards will find it equally fascinating.
RTWT:
By strategy and habit, Israel advocacy organizations seek to undermine progressive political initiatives regarding Israel/Palestine by relying on a twofold strategy of (1) direct, physical disruption of events and (2) institutional pressure to bring about disciplinary action against Palestine solidarity activists and organizations by the school’s administration. These two tracks increasingly form part of an integrated campaign of intimidation and repression.
There is presently an opportunity to drastically weaken the capacity of Israel advocacy organizations to regulate campus politics at York. An Israel advocacy backlash is inevitable, and its general contours can already be identified. Considering the historical backdrop of this backlash may be helpful in developing strategies to overcome it.
This article outlines the history of York University’s association with Israel and Israel advocacy, a record closely linked to the development of the broader politics of Israel advocacy in Canada. As the current furor over Israeli Apartheid Week amply demonstrates, the broadening of Palestine solidarity activities on Canadian campuses involves tense interaction with Israel advocacy organizations on a variety of fronts. Examination of the situation at York, historically the site of concentrated and extreme Israel advocacy organizing, may thus be relevant beyond York's campus.

Interesting. I never thought of that before but not that I think of it I rarely (if ever) see black guys out fishing or black families camping. I guess since blacks mostly moved to the cities and urban areas they lost touch with camping and hunting. Since the 50's (probably long before) white culture has been in the suburbs with programs like boyscouts. Not sure if Boy Scouts is a big hit in the inner cities.

very true.
and instead of the medical office, you go to the post office or the local union hall for your medical care
too much work, I want to Google my symptoms and have the pills fedexed to me, and let the nurse twitter my symptoms, hopefully the new model iPods will monitor temperature and pulse, at least.

re: #170 buzzsawmonkey
That is so depressing.
The notion that a national park should remind blacks of racism is nonsensical. The level of insularity and incuriosity about the outside world that the video displays, and the support for the notion that unless there is some sort of historical connection/role model of the same color, there is no reason for breaking out of that insularity, is horrific.
The fallback onto slavery happens in every argument about race. That isn't going to go away in my lifetime, unfortunately. Someone plays it, and then all dialogue ends. You can be having a good discussion and that will always kill it. Nothing I can do about it today except treat a man as a man.

Depends on where you are, I guess. Back in Boston I rarely saw black families out doing "nature" type of stuff, but since I moved to Atlanta and live out in the "country" I see it often. Where I live is about 40% African American, 40% white and 15% Latino and 5% "other.
The Boy Scout troop my son was in several years ago was at least 50% black. 3 out of the top 5 scout leaders were black guys also who LOVED to hunt, fish, camp out ,etc

I've never thought of it either, one reasons the family we most frequently go camping with is black, he has a nice jet boat to go and terrorize fish with.
I think I'd look more to current economic and cultural issues than back 150 years. Vacations, camping, are family events, fishing and hunting are father, son activities. IMHO, it comes back to the Moynihan Report accurately predicated and Cosby more recently has taken heat for, the state of the black family.

I'm not sure sport should be seen as barbaric, I do think it is an aspect of human nature though and won't be sublimated any sooner than any other animal contesting for breeding rights. I'm thinking Wilt Chamberlain here - lol
And once you distill it out, I find boxing very compelling - the ultimate sport, one on one, knock the other guys ass out. Football is close, but the violent essence that is the attraction is often lost in the intricacy of the plays and the need for cooperation.

re: #238 HoosierHoops
You are so wrong...Boxing sucks..One time in High School i thought I'd try out for Boxing thinking.Hell..I should be able to kick somebody's butt..It was off season..I'll never forget this..I jumped into the ring with some kid and he beat the living hell out of me..I was dancing around for awhile trying to look cool...I lasted about a round and half...Never...and I mean never step into the ring with a boxer..
I learned to box by my Dad and I putting on the gloves and then having him knock the hell out of me (self defense lessons). I was a skinny so and so but when we went to it in HS, I did kick some butts.

The worst thing about cash for clunkers is the deliberately destruction of the clunkers. In the third world, any operating car, no matter how old, is immensely valuable to impoverished people.
We are blind to this enormous poverty. It is both arrogant and selfish for us to destroy assets that could enrich poor people, rather than sharing them by putting them on freighters for shipment to impoverished third world countries.
Are the Democrats stupid, or merely callous? Obama's half-brother still is living in a shack in Kenya without plumbing or electricity, correct? What would a clunker mean to him?

Firefighters are merciless, if you don't have a sense of humor don't try. Watch a few who didn't just struggle. Not only with the ribbing, but the gallows humor which is necessary not to go crazy.

I turn the voice off, and a good 20% of the time know a better route than the GPS.
But I got it for the wife, she is directionally challenged.
We were headed down Route 65 from Chicago driving for the Chicago area headed to Myrtle Beach. At Lafayette the GPS kept saying to get off & head East. You have to go to Louisville & then head East.
The damn thing just kept scolding me. That's when it became Oprah.

re: #300 opnion
I sincerely appreciate the advice, really but I have a daughter & it just
pisses me off to hear all of the crude demeaning comments.
I do however take your point.
I also have a daughter (and 3 sons)...she would take Cato and slice and dice him so brilliantly that he never would know what hit him! She is a professional writer, and I am so very proud of her...a wonderful daughter, sister, wife, mother, daughter in law and sister in law. She does not suffer fools lightly. And when she and my sons were growing up? They had the usual warfare, that I, as an 'only' could never comprehend! But if any kid picked on one of them? They united as a group, and sliced and diced that kid verbally!
I am taking Satty's advice, though, and am going to *scroll*.
I do see your point and understand how you feel.

Ok Everyone -
Nice snicker here. In Picture # 1 is Candidate Barack Obama. In Picture #2 is "Homeless Guy."
I oppose the President about 85% of the time. He is still the President of the United States.
Like Rush, I would prefer that his POLICIES fail. AND - prefer that the Republic Prevails.
That said, my feelings are this:
1. As to the Safety of President Obama - PROTECT HIM - That is Absolute.
2. As to the POLICIES of President OBAMA - Support him when it looks/feels right. Oppose Him when it doesn't. That is POLITICS.
3. Make YOUR Politics better than his - and Prevail - in 2010 and beyond.
That is all.

re: #372 blueherron
Whoops. Sorry. Anyway Buzzsawmonkey, I don't think the low attendance at National Parks by African Americans has anything to do with lack of intellectual curiosity. I think it has everything to do with the fact that the Civil Rights Act was not enacted until the mid 1960's. Before that time and really since, black families have had little opportunity to "See the USA in their Chevrolet." They likely wouldn't have had motels/hotels where they could stay or restaurants where they'd feel welcome. Going on family vacations was not a standard part of life in the black community.

blueherron -
AND - by 1965, anywhere that Chevrolet was NOT allowed to park was subject to a HUGE lawsuit - Thank You Lyndon Johnson AND Everett Dirksen. The OLD "D" and "R" BULLS of the US Senate.
Our "Negro"/"Black"/"African-American" Citizens deserved that treatment since 1775, and paid for it in their blood and talent, starting with Crispus Attucks at the Battle of Concord - EVEN - including CSA Corvee'd soldiers fighting for their homes in 1864-5 for a regime that considered them "less than human."

re: #404 buzzsawmonkey
What a f*cking crock.
The Civil Rights Act has been law for nearly half a century. There are plenty of prosperous black people. There have always been places which were not restricted, as well as places which were, back when restrictions existed--but they have not existed for almost fifty years. That is a lifespan which stretches from the youth of today's grandparent to the birth of modern infants.
The video--if you bothered to watch it--clearly shows that the horizons of today's ghetto dwellers are terribly self-constricted.
OK. The people living in ghettos (or as you say, ghetto dwellers)
are "self-constricting" travel to national parks for vacations? You mean the that "ghetto-dwellers" who eke out an existance and have no means of transportation aren't going to parks because they have no intellectual curiosity. Unrestricted has never, and doesn't now mean welcome. How about that swim club that rejected the inner-city black kids?
It's not comfortable go where you're not welcome. And 50 years is not a long time in the history of a culture.
By the way, of course I saw the video. I guess you and I just look at the reasons for low attendance differently.

OK, I wasn't even going to post this. We went to Nags Head last week.
An African-American family with 2 kids stayed in the cottage across from us.
Nice family. Our kids had a blast at the beach. We joked around, had dinner in one night with them, just hamburgers and hot dogs. Maybe YOU are the one not getting out enough.
Jesus wept.

re: #455 blueherron
OK. The people living in ghettos (or as you say, ghetto dwellers)
are "self-constricting" travel to national parks for vacations? You mean the that "ghetto-dwellers" who eke out an existance and have no means of transportation aren't going to parks because they have no intellectual curiosity. Unrestricted has never, and doesn't now mean welcome. How about that swim club that rejected the inner-city black kids?
It's not comfortable go where you're not welcome. And 50 years is not a long time in the history of a culture.
By the way, of course I saw the video. I guess you and I just look at the reasons for low attendance differently.
blueherron -
What WE will agree with is the following - "YOU ARE ONLY A VICTIM - IF - YOU ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE ONE."
That goes for RACE, ETHNICITY, GENDER et.al. The WAY I SEE IT - the Constitutional "All Men" is a shorthand for all MEN, WOMEN, (Of any and All Skin Colors,) GAYS, LESBIANS, BI-SEXUALS, TRANSGENDERS and so on.
As to "Marriage" - I prefer a Heterosexual Male+Female Relationship as at least "Marriage Clasic." I would prefer that other "forms" take another name. At worst I am "Anti-Semantic."

re: #52 Cato the Elder
That's funny.
And in real life: A young guy near here wanted to propose to his girlfriend. In a special way.
This particular young guy has a seat as a delegate for the state's biggest county, and shares a last name with an uncle who's a long-serving congressional representative, now senator. He's got the right to call himself "Esquire", if he's not too embarrassed by that absurd affectation (he's not), and he knows everybody important in city and state.
So he takes GF on a boat ride, during which they are suddenly hailed by the Marine Police squad and boarded for a "safety inspection", while a police helicopter hovers overhead, making everybody have to shout to be heard. There've been a lot of drunken boating accidents including fatalities this summer, and the couple and their friend the boat owner have been drinking. It seems like GF is about to be cuffed, when one of the water policemen finds a package. He hands it to the senator's nephew, who gets down on one knee, proffers a ring and asks GF to marry him.
Whole stunt at taxpayers' expense, while not a mile away the police commissioner is personally standing guard in the inner harbor, where the Crips and the Bloods were exchanging gunfire again over the weekend.
Oh, to finish the story. The bimbo said yes.
Which part is the Sara Palin angle?

That's the dumbest damn idea I've heard in a long time. An aversion to soil/land is now in the black gene?
Look, the guy wants more black Americans to see the national parks. That's not the worst goal I have ever heard of, to put it mildly.

The Onion made a pretty good satire here. I don't find it offensive, just because the subject is bipolar disorder. It's not like Obama really has the illness and they were making fun of that. They real point is the difference between campaigning and governing. Campaigning is fun. It's easy to be positive and energetic and enthusiastic. Governing on the other hand is tough, difficult and at times downright depressing.
And mocking Joe Biden is always funny.

re: #492 SanFranciscoZionist
I didn't say it was a bad goal, only that the rationalization was dumb. Farming is an honorable profession in this country and to say that blacks are averse to it for historical reasons (back when 90% of everyone lived on the land) is condescending and stupid.
