That wasn't a mad face, Larry, it was the evil face. On a good day I could give the wicked witch of the east a run for her money. (Those are the days they call me Pamzilla ....) Besides which, I'll be nice to Todd when he's not feeling well, but by golly the boy can see his ankles now. Sheez. And ding-dong to you too. The witch is NOT dead!
(edited to add an essential word--ooops)

I am flattered to be passed over from consideration as an Arlonet Axis of Evil member due to my position as a possible vacation stop for blunderites. Thank you, Todd, and thanks to all for the lively debate here. Remember, the non-evil that men do lives on long after their demise.

Mikey, it's much easier being non-evil in a good (read warm) weather state. It's Michigan. It's February. Went from spring weather this morning to cold and rainy this afternoon, due to freeze tonight, snow tomorrow. Hell is freezing over. I promise to be non-evil when I get a chance to visit Florida, since you're opening up to blunderites. (Except I might have to tease Todd if Larry's not looking.)

Oh btw, Pat, what you said on page...oy i think it was 3??? lol this thread got long quick! Your response to my long winded thread, well said! Can't argue with logic. <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/tiedye.gif" width=17 height=17>

Todd, it's reasuring to be in a leauge of my own. Altho I'm not so sure of the company I keep!? Back to the 'No Dought' song.

ShannonO. Towel Heads. Like I dig Chairman Mao and his friends are comin over for dinner....Anything less would be taking away my constitutional rights. It's not the Doctors, and Pharmacist that are plotting terrorist plots. Like it or not, we
have all said the word nigger. How do you think I (we) learned to hate (love) it that much!!!

**disclaimer: I have a head cold, and am taking 'Heavy' medications. Not to mention having manic-depression makes it hard to put your 'true' feelings into words, without turning it into a 'read' of novel proportion!!!

***NEVER seen a thread get SO off topic!!??
IT"S MORNING IN AFGANISTAN!!!!!!!!!<img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/dead.gif" width=15 height=15>

Rb, speak for yourself there, or, at least, not for me.....
Pat, what I meant was, if W didn't install Dade County Cubans, in post-Castro power they'd have one big hissy fit,
Todd, it's ok, if you list me, as evil, but, you forgot to list Sarah Lee, as non-evil..., an oversight, I'm sure..
also, Todd, careful, there, gettin Shannon riled up, she'll tie a slip-knot, in your cod piece. Irish Colleens can do amazing things, with cod-pieces

Actually, RB, not everyone really has said those words. I don't mean it makes you evil for having once said them. We've already got evil covered. It's more a point of interest that people tend to assume that growing up with them is a universal and it isn't. I remember reading the word "nigger" in Huckleberry Finn when I was like 11 or something and kind of figuring out what it mean but it was a totally unfamiliar word. At that point in life it was way too late to learn to use it. Same goes for all other racial and ethnic epithets. In the neighborhood where I spent my formative years, we never heard them.

Hmm...it is possible, in essence, to stick your foot up well...Todd. It all depends: how flexible are you? <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/laugh.gif" width=15 height=15>

LOL, thanks Kerry. However, I'm afraid when it comes to that question, I must plead the 5th <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/naughty.gif" width=15 height=15>

As for your comment rb, on everyone having used the N-word at one time or another, I can safely say that I have not, nor do I ever intend to use that dirty word, or any other like it that refers to other races. And I did say when I mentioned the 'towel head' comment, that I wasn't trying to tread on the 1st amendment priviledge, I simply suggested that I thought it was a bad idea to use racist terms on anything to do with an Arlo Guthrie website, since Arlo kind of stands for equality and stomps OUT hatred of any kind. I never said you can't say those words. Just thought it wasn't bright to do so...own opie-inion...

i'm not sure i'm real comfortable about kerry and shannono using me to test their flexibility!! i wonder if it's too late to use: I AM SORRY!!!!

i got a problem with this statement...and besides,,,Arlo who???

rb is right...one for the troops...

hi ho diddly bop!
i wish i was back on the block.
m16 in my hand,
i wanna be a fighting man!!!

reup? you're crazy.
reup? you're outta your mind!

vietnam era version...

hi ho diddly bop!

bag of green in my hand,
i wanna be a tokin' man!!!

reup? you're crazy.
reup? you're outta your mind!

Good Morning, Afghanistan!!!!

You people are all old enough to lie! Todd apparently feels no need to. That's a given.

NEVER is a strong word. You folk might want to search your memory banks. Mark Furman? never said it either. Remember....

It's easy for me to plead the 5th! As I LOVE Spike Lee films....Altho I think he uses the word Nigger too much...When I was in the joint, that's how I knew I was well liked. They called me nigger, as well I spit it back at them... When ya say "what's up nigger" and get a smile, you know you are accepted....

*Altho I wouldn't try this one at home!....<img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/wink.gif" width=15 height=15>

I know what you mean, Rb, I've been called that, as a term of endearment, too, but as a show of respect, for all those who have been hurt by that word, I choose not to use it, ever, never have, never will.....
great ditty update, there, Todd,
Now, ABC's gonna make Afghan the setting for a "reality" show, following troops around.. so, in 25 years, we've gone from "nobody seems to care these days, when a soldoer makes it home" to war, as content for entertainment TV shows... if Madison Ave gets any nore amoral & crass, we're gonna start playing out George Orwell's 1984, and, stand in line, to do it!!
This creeeping, multinational corporate takeover shit makes me sick!
Shannon, I, like you, honor and respect Arlo's world view. And while I believe in peoples' freedom of expression, I'm glad, when kindred philosphies, to Arlo's, show up, here

sorry, rb..never have, never will. know some people that have though..is that good enough?
todd...arlo who? is right. please don't tell me people are going to start pulling out the WWAD bracelets again.
