#1 I suspect that when her looks are gone she'll become a political activist...

Or a Senator.

#2 With all due respect, does this belong on Rburg? I thought the Powers That Be decided to get rid of the fluff pieces...

#3 since Fred did the inline comments, I'd say YS is wrong

#4 Someday I'm going to write a history of the war. One of the things our grandchildren will be interested in when they're forced by their teachers to read up on these times will be what the rest of the world was doing while serious young men and women were trying to fight off an evil and implacable enemy.

I'll probably used the Shattered Nation graphic a lot in the next couple weeks.

#6 I'm heartbroken. I had no idea she was this dimwitted.

#7 Well, I'm really glad I never had any interest at all in britney, otherwise, I'd be very disappointed or something.

#9 Frank: I'm suprised.

You realize we send the _ugly_ ones off to Hollywood to become "singers," right?

#10 The purty ones are sent to Nashville to become "singers".

#11 I dunno. The only purty singers I know of from around here are local performers noone else has ever heard of...

#12 I think part of the equation is that the Big Media Conglomerates _want_ weak-willed no-talent white trash types to be their stars because they want people who will be both pliable and totally dependent on them for their lot in life.

So all we wind up seeing is airwaves, both video, radio, and coaxial, filled up with 24 hours a day of vacuum being pushed at us.

#13 I dunno, somehow the studio system was that, but past stars were more behaved, at least publically, being on leash from their studio. Nowadays, it seems we've got the worst of both studio systems and post-60/70's independent stars.

#14 I was thinking of Faith Hill (Mississippi). But then I am partial to her since she is a dead ringer for my first love. Oh, the regrets we have from our youth.

#15 With all due respect, does this belong on Rburg?

Sure. It's a funny/warped animal story.

#16 For a tattoo, she would have to get "fart-wings", alternatively known as the "cashier's stamp", and the "mark of the FSGA" (Future Slave-Girl of America).

That is, the "winged" lower back tattoo that can be exhibited by low cut pants.

#17 Actually, that doesn't sound any more incoherent than the dinner converstations that my wife and I normally have.
