  1. Aw, did little jackie get sand in his panties? Aw, poor baby.

    Yes, I took the glasses and the ashtrays, because they needed washing, they were filthy. You’ll get them back on my next trip out to the beach. I’ll bring some tissues, too, for the cry babies.

  2. bxgrl,
    the reason people are up in arms about the nobel peace prize is that many see this as a form of meddling by foreign interests.
    no doubt, this should be expected since it is a form of asymmetrical diplomacy on the part of left leaning Europeans, but what is aggravating is the fact that they attempt to pass it off as some sort of consensus opinion on what is right in the world in their minds.
    I guess I can’t blame them for doing it, but let’s see it for what it is these days.
    I seem to recall last year around this time when they were giving out the nobel prize for literature and someone asked one of the judges why an American wasn’t in contention, and the fool said something to the effect that, “we cannot let the US become the center of the cultural world…”
    in other words, they were making judgements on literature based on political expediency.
