I cannot think of a single friend of mine who had this problem. And this includes people who were or became priests, ministers, and state court prosecutors. People who live on the Peninsula, Less. For God's sake, who exactly are you hanging out with?

Conspiracy theory time. I fast forwarded through much of the hour of "programming," but I'm simply not willing to believe that Ruben was among the bottom 2 vote getters. I'm not sure that they actually ever said that Ruben and Trenyce were the bottom 2 vote getters. Maybe they put Ruben in that group so as to get another performance out of him (and stop Josh from singing again), and merely implied that he was among the bottom two vote getters?

It was in People. It may be on People.com but I am far too inept technologically to post the photo, sorry.:shrug:

I think she looks a lot better than XTina, whose hair and missing eyebrows are still gross. Perhaps a nice new handbag would be a good way to draw attention away from her new head.

Jeezis freaks
 

I had a "friend" like that in HS, though the point I challenged was the more prosaic one that a jewish friend was going to burn in hell for not being baptist. My response, I recall, was that I was very sad that she was going to burn in hell for all eternity for denying God's love and forgiveness and denying the almighty nature of God by presuming to limit His capacity to forgive all sinners however great - not just the sinners who happened to share her particular sins, like pride, vanity and wrath.

To her credit, that did shut her up for about 2 years, after which she discovered sex.

The salt-and-pepper does look good on him. Alas, he is too short for me. A fact that is well hidden when he sits behind the desk. I'm sure his wife is pleased to know that she doesn't have any real threat from me.

But damn he is funny. He has the self-depricating humor down. Something that Bill Maher could stand to work on these days...

Your penis is small because you are using the codes incorrectly.

To increase the size of your penis you need to put the size=4 inside the blocks as you have it, but then after your penis you need to put, inside the blocks, /size. This will tell it to stop growing and keep your penis from taking over the world.

Similarly, after you choose bold, you need to put /b to tell it to stop bolding. And /color to tell it to stop the color. All inside the brackets.

Edited to say, so to make your penis big, bold and red...are you sure you want your penis to be red, you need the following.

(I'll use () instead of brackets just replace them with [ and ] to make it work.

(size=4)(b)(COLOR=red)PENIS(/COLOR)(/b)(/size)

And it will look like this

PENIS

Fun article
 

A fun article on nerve.com about a woman's experiences working in a NYC sex shop, including an interesting take on the cunt/debate. Here are some excerpts. Disclaimer: I dated this woman for about a year.

"The guy was looking for a video of people having sex with animals. I told him that because bestiality was illegal, he would have a hard time finding a store that would admit to stocking anything like that. I pointed out the shelf with the blow-up sheep. I heard myself say, "Perhaps I can interest you in one of our inflatable companions?" I knew I had been working there too long."

"TRUTH IN ADVERTISING: My favorite dirty-movie title of all time is Girls Who Suck Cock and Eat Cum"

"Female sexuality suffers from a dearth of non-humiliating slang. Men have access to some enormously satisfying vernacular when it comes to the care and feeding of their genitals. Words like "cock," "dick" and "rod" have a pithy weight all their own, magnified by the possessive. "Pussy," "cunt," "slit" and "snatch" share the same monosyllabic weight, but are usually paired with the objectifying "her" or "some" or "that." The rarest word associated with the vagina seems to be "my." "

Should've known that in the end, it comes down to incorrect codes.
 

To my recollection, none of the herbal remedies, surgeries, vitamin supplements, exorcisms, or other helpful suggestions that land in my Inbox have suggested this precise remedy. Thanks for the tip.

I think I'd follow the "enlarge your penis!" e-mails before I'd let a lesbian make such recommendations. The conflict of interest would scare me.

Actually, its not just a movie, it's a series of compilation videos.

But while we're at it, I think this would be an excellent poll, to wit:

See now you have hurt me. You are perpetuating a stereotype that I, as a lesbian, must have a problem with the PENIS.

I have no problem with the PENIS. I simply don't want the PENISin my vagina.

See how I tied those threads together? Neat huh? I thought so too.

I don't know whether I should be insulted or not, but I'm curious -- why is it unclear to you?

You have to admit the post with the coding problems looked pretty funny.

That's nice, but how do you make it a huge, red, throbbing penis? I couldn't find an HTML command to make the size throb.

Just my opinion, but she now looks plain. Some girls need to be blonde, if you know what I mean.

And on an unrelated note, "Splendor in the Ass" made me actually LOL.

I think my favorite is the classic "Forrest Hump." Unoriginal, but still funny.

<<Britney with brown bob>>

Yuck.

She is going downhill. I've never thought she was that great but there she looks downright dowdy.

You know who looks consistently good, and who seems to have quite on bit on the ball is Mandy Moore. Can't think of anything she sings, but as a spokesperson/host she does a good job.

I was thinking maybe that's part of the point for her. If I wanted to take time off and chill from extreme publicity (a real problem in my life, let me tell you!), looking plainer and blending in more would definitely be appealing.

It requires javascript, which I do not think works here. If it did/does, here are some codes that make Kafka red and throbbing (there also are non-code methods of accomplishing this feat).

<span id="theText" style="width:100%">
<h2>Kafka</h2>
</span>

<script>
<!--


//range of glowing
var from = 5;
var to = 11;

//speed of pulsing
var delay = 55;

//color of glow, name or RGB value (example:'#00FF00')
var glowColor = "red";


//NO MORE EDITING!!!
var i = to;
var j = 0;

//can be called here or whenever you want the text to start pulsing
textPulseDown();

function textPulseUp()
{
if (!document.all)
return
if (i < to)
{
theText.style.filter = "Glow(Color=" + glowColor + ", Strength=" + i + ")";
i++;
theTimeout = setTimeout('textPulseUp()',delay);
return 0;
}

if (i = to)
{
theTimeout = setTimeout('textPulseDown()',delay);
return 0;
}


}

function textPulseDown()
{
if (!document.all)
return
if (i > from)
{
theText.style.filter = "Glow(Color=" + glowColor + ", Strength=" + i + ")";
i--;
theTimeout = setTimeout('textPulseDown()',delay);
return 0;
}

if (i = from)
{
theTimeout = setTimeout('textPulseUp()',delay);
return 0;
}
}

AI-WTF?
 

Exactly -- Told you America was stoopid. We saw it before with Carmen hanging around far too long b/c of the Mormon bloc voting early and often. Virtually everybody who watches thinks Ruben's going to win, so they figure why vote? Now they will. FOX will find a way to manufacture drama where there is not.

I hate to use the term silent majority in this context, but seriously, who cares so much that they are really going to take the time to vote, much less repeatedly, but a very vocal and partisan few, (proud Marines -- or something like that).

Sorry, I never learned how to make a penis throb.

Fun article
 

Actually, I think it's a fetish video: "Shaving Ryan's Privates." Though i might be wrong. If it's not that, it shoulda been.

Also, taking a U-turn midpost, I went back to the archives to find a post I made after the AI wildcard selection show. Tooting my own horn a bit, here were my picks:
----------------------------
"So handicapping it out, I'd put the odds at:

Joshua Marine: 2-1
Ruben Studdard: 5-2
Clay Aiken: 7-2 (keep singin' Elton, boy)
Corey "Jackson": 5-1
Kimberly Caldwell: 5-1
Other Kimberly: 7-1

I don't think that anyone else has a serious chance of winning. I think first to go will be Ricky "Hercules Hercules", Julia DiMato (whose sympathy vote has probably vanished by now), or Trenyce, who reminds me of a Pointer Sister, and not in a good way.
------------------------
Obviously the odds on Ruben, Clay and Kim would be lower now, but for having set this line when there were still 12 finalists, I'd say that was pretty good.

That's a good questions, which leads me to wonder whether any of the people on this board who watch AI have ever voted. I, for one, have not. Even though I've been tempted at times.

How could you forget her breakout hit: I'm a fine piece of jailbait and I want str8 to do very bad things to me

Or her other one:

Please str8 come over tonight and do everything you did to me last night, and Ima invite my twin sister along

She also had a big hit with "Candy," but the other ones are much much better.

I am always moved to vote at inappropriate times, such as last night. But I will probably vote next week. I am too emotionally invested in Clay not to.

For whatever reason, I do not view Mandy as the type of jailbait one would want to do the sex to. She seems like the type of girl you would keep as your girlfriend to later marry but screw around on with Xtina.

Never have. Doubt I ever will. I started watching the show with my daughter last year. She's closer to the core demographic than I. Would I watch otherwise? Depends.

Weird thing is, in both seasons I didn't really start watching until the finalist round, even though many people have told me that the entertainment value of the preliminaries is so much greater, what with the really horrible singers and no-holds-barred evaluations from Simon the Black.

My daughter was much more interested in voting last year, until she found out that she had to spend an inordinate amount of time hitting redial just to register one vote. She has not asked to vote this year, so we generally just evaluate performances among ourselves.

AI voting
 

I've watched both seasons from the very beginning and last week was the first time I was motivated to vote b/c I hated Carmen so much and didn't want to see Kim Locke go before her. But after hitting "redial" for forty-five minutes and failing to get through a SINGLE time to either Kim, Clay or Ruben's line, I decided that there are better uses for my time. Fox needs to spring for more phone lines -- they brag about the number of votes they generate but they would be able to brag about many times that amount if people could get through more often. cheapasses.

Anyway, while I really wanted the constipated marine to be sent packing, I'm not sorry to see Trenyce go. She never seemed to develop her own style and spent most of her performances imitating Whitney, Celine or, on Tuesday's show, Tina Turner. And it was annoying to hear her refer to herself as a "diva" over and over again -- hon, don't you have to actually accomplish something before you can be a diva? I mean shouldn't you have released one measly single, at the very least before you can claim diva status?

AI voting
 

I haven't voted yet, but next week I will vote for Ruben, Clay, and Kimberley. I figure that one set of votes for each of those three equals one vote against Josh.
