; after falling into a slough(2) on Coughlin(14) road near the lough(12) (dry due to drought)(7), he coughed(5) and hiccoughed(9), then checked his horse's houghs(11)and washed up in a trough(10).
Where would you be if you were in a band?
Some dive bar where we'd be lucky to make $20 plus booze for each set. I have no musical ability whatsoever and I have to assume that any band that would have me in it would be so desperately bad that a great set for them would be one where they didn't get thrown off the stage.
Who do you support in Mapwar I, the Mappist Coalition (Snooze Button Dreams) or the Fairy Defamation League (Everyday Stranger)?
Hmmm...this is a tough one. After due consideration I must throw my support behind me. There's just no way I could give that support to a fairy killer.
There has recently been quite a bit of exposure regarding biased reporting from Iraq. Is it the responsibility of the news agencies to report good news as well as bad news?
No, it isn't. News agencies are either state run or they are corporations. If it's state run then its only responsibility is to spew the correct propaganda. If it is a corporation then its duty is to provide the consumer with the product that they wish to purchase. Generally speaking, death, misery and freakishness sell and that's what I expect from broadcast and print news sources. It's also why I don't watch broadcast news or subscribe to a newspaper. I get my news online where I can select varied sources that I believe represent a full spectrum of what's happening out there. That being said, I believe that the major news organizations will begin putting more human interest and success in Iraq stories out because the public has let them know that they want to hear these things. Demand and supply, that's all there is to it.
What should the age of consent be and why?
In an ideal world there shouldn't be any defined age of consent. People mature at different ages and different stages. There shouldn't be an automatic ability to drive at 16, vote and screw at 18, and drink at 21. Some people are ready earlier and some are ready later. Let people qualify for restricted activities through testing and proof of maturity.
Are you a Stealth Blogger? That is, do you let the people in your life know you blog? If so, why? If not, why not?
The only people in my life that know I'm a blogger are G and Lil Bro. G actually reads the blog; I don't know if Lil Bro does. I'm not hiding my blog - I use my real name, real location, etc - but I'm not promoting it to friends and family either.
NJ has just passed a law banning people from driving while drowsy. Do you think that this will be effective in preventing accidents, or just another law that will fall by the wayside after a few years?
It won't have any affect whatsoever, just like laws about cellphone use, eating, whatever. It is already illegal to drive under diminished capacity and if you get into an accident because of your diminished capacity then you will be judged at fault. This is just another redundant law that will further clutter up the books.
What is the best book that you have ever read? What made it such an excellent book?
A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin. This is beyond any shadow of a doubt the more detailed and entrancing tale I've ever read. Martin makes it come alive to such an extent that there were certain times that I had to put it down and walk away from it to process everything and settle down from the story.

A very HUGE thank you to Pixy Misa who has deigned to host my poor self and welcomed me to the Munuvanian community. You are the man, Andrew.
Thanks also to Margi for convincing me it was worth it to get off of Blog*Spot and that it was easier than I feared. It was even easier than that, Margi! Andrew did everything. Hehe.
The old posts will be coming over sometime soon (as soon as I get the stuff that Andrew needs) and I'll monkey with the template when I get some time. Otherwise, please bear with me as I make the change to Moveable Type.

Hell on Earth is an alternative rock band known for it's stage antics, which have included grinding up rats in a blender. The group said last week on its Web site that a terminally ill member of a right-to-die group plans to commit suicide on stage in a political statement about euthanasia.
This brings up some interesting legal questions. Is suicide illegal? The band isn't actually assisting the act of suicide in any way so the whole assisted suicide thing doesn't come into play here. Can the police legally stop somebody from committing suicide?

"It's never done," testified Dr. Sidney Weschler of South Dakota during the eighth week of Finkel's trial.
"Tugging the nipple annoys patients," he said.
What about tugging mens' nipples? If it turns out that isn't standard practice I am going to feel so abused.

I guess that says it all. The fact that it was a sequel to an abominably awful movie that did well solely due to its novelty, a geek fixation on a computer generated sex doll and a marked similarity between Angelina Jolie's boobies and that of the aforementioned pixelated fantasy figure had nothing to do with it. The additional facts of Angelina Jolie being revealed to posess the acting prowess of a turnip and having multiple psychoses plus the sequel having the exact same plot as the original had even less to do with this movie's box office performance.
UPDATE (SBD): I've just learned that H (aka "Helen", aka "Lithe Nimble-Bodied Chick", aka "The Fairy Menace") is a huge fan of the Tomb Raider movies. Not only did she see both of them multiple times in the theater but she purchased several copies of each on DVD to "do her part to support the franchise". Furthermore, many of her detailed sexual experiences were actually just sessions when she watched Cradle of Life, an experience that she feels is "incredibly orgasmic". That cobbled together electronic pleasure device that we all thought was a vibrator? Nope. VCR remote.
Help me show Helen the error of her ways. Support Snooze Button Dreams and The Mappist Coalition. Click on that "View the Guestmap" button in my right sidebar and sign my map. Show the Fairy Defamation League and Everyday Stranger that we will not tolerate anything but the truth in our titilation.

On the ride into work today, G and I got on Hillary Clinton. Not literally on her, of course; she wasn't in the car with us. But we talked about her in the context of the 2008 election and what would happen if it came down to Condi and Hill. G thinks Condi would blow her away. I also think Condi would win but it would be close.
>From there the conversation naturally turned to sex with Hillary. Yes, that is a natural turn of conversation given the ungodly hour, the fact that she's female and that we are both heterosexual males. Actually the stream of conversation went sort of like this:
- Rush Limbaugh is a racist bastard. He intimated that McNabb is a popular quaterback because he's black and people want to see a successful black quarterback.
- That's just plain stupid thinking. 20 years ago it might have been plausible but there are loads of black quaterbacks, coaches, etc.
- Even outside of sports it's not plausible. Look at the Bush government. Conaleeza Rice and Colin Powell are two of the most powerful people in America and they're black.
- Either Colin or Condi will probably run in 2008.
- Bush is a lock in 2004 because the Radical Left is polarizing the Dems.
- Hillary is setting up for a 2008 run too. She's marginalizing the Left Dems already and will be in an excellent position to say "Told ya so. Let's try it my way" when Bush squashes whatever loon makes it out of the current Dem candidate pack to challenge him.
- Condi vs. Hillary in 2008 is not only possible, it's actually likely.
- Condi would crush Hill (G) or at least win on a margin (Me).
- I hate Hillary with a deep burning passion.
- I don't hate Hillary as a person but as a public persona and especially as a politician.
- I wouldn't hold it against Hillary if she slept around on Bill.
- Would you sleep with Hillary?
That last point of the conversation got the most development. It
Before I lose all of your respect, please let me answer some of the inevitable questions:
You said you hate her. Why would you have sex with somebody you hate?
I don't hate her, the person. Unlike many very vocal pundits I am more than able to separate the person from the politician. I have never personally met Hillary so I have no idea if I would actually hate her. I hate her lying, cheating, power grubbing, Clintonian ways. For all I know she's quite pleasant in person. In fact, she's probably quite charming face to face. You sort of have to be to get into a Senate seat.
Okay then, if you hate her policies so much and think she's a lying, thieving, cheating crook then isn't it a clash of your principles to be involved with her?
No, this is not a clash with my principles. I still wouldn't be voting for her, I'd just be gifting her with the pearl necklace on a semi-regular basis. There's a big difference. I don't agree with many of the political views of my wife but I still bang her.
Isn't she a bit "old" for you?
All right, I'll admit that Hill isn't a great looker. On the other hand, she's not a sow either. Contrary to modern advertisers' claims, it is not necessary for a woman to look like Cameron Diaz to attract a mate. I also don't have hangups about age. So long as I don't have to worry about snapping hips during the wild ride it's really not a concern for me.
Would you really sell your body for some gifts?
Of course not. I'd also be getting sex. You see, for the average guy there really isn't any such thing as being a prostitute. At least not within our normal comprehension of it. "I get to have sex with chicks and I get money? Rock on!! Hold on while I warm up my mangina."
Aren't you worried about what a relationship with Hillary (extramarital for her) would do to your reputation?
Are you serious? When has a reputation ever been a consideration for whether a guy has sex or not?
Back to her policies. You hate them so much and think she's such a lousy politician. What could you talk about? How would you actually have any kind of relationship?
I'm sure her economic policies would sound much better with my cock in her mouth.
What about after it's all over though. Wouldn't you be worried about some sort of repercussions?
I see only benefits. It would be much easier to argue her down against Hillarites. Oh, she rallied the Senate and got her pet bill passed? "Well she was an astoundingly bad lay." She's made another impassioned speach about socialized health care, reverse discrimination and how she continues to battle the vast right wing conspiracy? "I can tell you that she didn't speak so well with a ball gag in her yap hole." Hillary has opted into the 2008 Presidential race? "Yeah, that horse can run all right. Just like the day I put the saddle and blinders on her and shoved the pony tail butt plug up her ass."
So sure, I'd screw Hillary. Nothin' but pie there as far as I can see. How bout y'all? Guys (and ladies that go that way), what do you say?

I do not like your wife there Bill.
I do not like her with a mouse.
I do not like her in The House.
I do not like her lying ways.
I do not like the cons she plays.
I do not want to hear her voice.
Please tell me that I have a choice!
I do not like her in New York.
I'd rather stab her with a fork.
I do not want her as my Pres.
I don't respect that bull dyke les.
I fear she'll use me as a goose,
And with my cash play fast and loose,
And spend and spend to up our debt.
It won't be paid til I am dead!
'Bout Travelgate she gives a scoff.
There's smoke and fire but she gets off!
And Whitewater she couldn't care.
Her sneaky ways sidestepped that snare.
On Monica she was astounded,
As if she thought Bill's ways were bounded.
The "vast right wing" she called at fault,
When it was just Bill's trouser trout.
The truth came out, did she recant?
Not too bloody likely, gent.
Apologize she did not do,
She'd rather have the Righties stew.
"It's still their fault" is what she'll say.
"They're after us, please stay away!"
But stay away they'll never do,
Like me, Hill, they just don't like you!
