oops I meant cartoons...cartoons...
don't be down charlie brown. the winning cartons weren't any better than the losing ones. but congrats to them!
congratz to the winners..really.
But does anyone else feel like charlie brown for losing?
Kinda rough listening to you describe a picture and parse out why it's funny...
Virginia school children are petitioning the President to pardon a pig this year in addition to a turkey in honor of the 400th anniversary of Jamestown Virginia. The contention is that the first Thanksgiving was held in 1619, a year before the Pilgrims landed, and that they ate Virginia ham, not turkey. Google "Pardon the Pig" to learn more.
All I can think of every time I hear the 'promo' for this contest is the Indian commedian & fimmaker, Charlie Hill's old routine based on the concept "give them a rock & they take the whole continent" - It's unfortunately more true than ever, with the false new stereotype that all Indians are now rich from casinos, when in fact poverty & it's attendant suffering & the assault upon their small land-base by multi-nat'l corps are accelerating. And of course they continue to give-up their young men (& women)to the military disproportionally.
I fast & give thanks for knowing the unvarnished truth.
