  • Who is Your Favorite C-Span "Washington Journal" Host?

    My Vote Goes for, Bill Scanlan (small birth mark on his lip)

    He seems the most natural of all the Hosts whom BTW I feel all do a wonderful Job

    Bill just seems to take it all in and pulls off being impersonal without coming off as >impersonal<

    Here is another side vote that just came to me...

    If all of the Washington Journal Hosts were to Play Poker who would Win @ having the most

    Poker Face? (my vote; Steve Scully)

    Yet a Third VOTE if you like....Who has the Loudest Internal Dialogue?

    That would have to be Pedro Echevarria....his eyes never sit still! It is as if his internal Thoughts

    Need to be Dialed Downed~ But Pedro does have a great command of the "Chop Shop" approach

  • Do Wars in Third World Cities Lower Property Values?

  • Why is >Grease< The Word?

    Just why would the maker of this Musical take one fact that MEN used Grease in their Hair in the 50's and decide to Title their MOVIE after a Hair ACCESSORY?

    Why IS GREASE THE WORD?

    Google song meanings for Grease and your get NOTHING!!!

    One strange idea I've had is that sexual repression in the 50's started a trend where the "social lubricant" for sexual release was as close at hand as a subtle hand brushed through the hair...

    Michael Jackson's " Beat it" seems to be a similar affectation on this same theme...

    sex and violence go hand and hand

    check out some of the lyrics:

    I solve my problems and I see the light

    We got a lovin' thing, we gotta feed it right

    There ain't no danger we can go to far

    We start believing now that we can be what we are

    Grease is the word

    They think our love is just a growing pain

    Why don't they understand, It's just a crying shame

    Their lips are lying only real is real

    We stop the fight right now, we got to be what feel

    Grease is the word

    It's got groove it's got meaning

    Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion

    Grease is the way we are feeling

    We take the pressure and we throw away

    Conventionality belongs to yesterday

    There is a chance that we can make it so far

    We start believing now but we can be who we are

    Grease is the word

    It's got groove it's got meaning

    Grease is the time, is the place is the motion

    Grease is the way we are feeling

    This is the life of illusion

    Wrapped up in trouble, laced with confusion

    What are we doing here?

    We take the pressure and we throw away

    Conventionality belongs to yesterday

    There is a chance that we can make it so far

    We start believing now that we can be who we are

    Grease is the word

    It's got groove it's got meaning

    Grease is the time, is the place is the motion

    Grease is the way we are feeling

  • Compelling Evidences of Real Pokemon?

    www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnV4qPo57kA

    I have spent countless hours investigating the remote chance

    that there really might be "real life" Pokemon...

    and I have to say the evidences is quite compelling to say the least!

    I would like you to consider the vast array of information on a total of 649 Pokemon

    which is by no means superficial on its cohesiveness structural analysis of each and every Pokemon depicted. This vast array of information is nothing less than mind boggling!

    >The Simple Fact Is Nobody Can Make Up Such Detailed Data Compiled On 649 Pokemon Simply Off the Cuff <

    And it is in this researchers humble opinion that Yes there is

    a Remote chance that Pokemon are Real!

  • Early Human Fire Starters?

    I am thinking that Fire was the number one key to where humans are today

    In a field all their own from the other creatures on this planet...

    How do you think some of these Fire Starters got to their point of mastering the flame?

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I think there was an Idiot Savant that saw Lightning split a tree and fire poured out

    so this early human split sticks and tried feverishly to "ring the fire out" and got enough

    friction to master the flame~ this process was passed on and on which brought about a

    major shift in early humans...

    also when you hit stones together they spark and you can smell smoke traces

    I think this lead to flint being used too...

    ~~~~~~~~~~~

    what do you think?
