It takes less than 20 seconds to get the point from this video....http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Nx64_N4AA04

Sorry, I was really busy with work.My post merely said:If I didn't already love being a Hoosier Daddy, I would change my handle to . . .Rico Suave

uhh, did Ricochet just eat the body of my iPhone-posted post?

Prince is much more important because he is a songwriter and producer.

It is truly "his music" that has his name on it.  Madonna and MJ are corporate 'pop' products with HUGE teams of writers and producers contributing.  

I think I was lucky to have fallen in love with a Japanese and immigrated here 26 years ago.  Japan has always had a unique blend of freedom and paternalism, and its lack of diversity makes it able to weather the coming world cataclysm. America has voted itself out of existence.  The Japanese can never fragment like the EJ Hill map.

I thought the same sentiments had been expressed many times many years before 1816. Only the final sentence, and the second half of the first sentence, express anything not in the Declaration.

Anyway, my guess in Henry Clay (I admit I GOOGLED him just to confirm that he was already in the House by 1816, and he was - - - entered 1811.)

The failure of the prediction reminds me of the 'End of History' that was supposed to follow the expulsion of Iraq from Kuwait.

Calling for getting rid of athletic scholarships is racist.

30 of 33, but I think one item has two correct answers - - - "debt is zero"

Combine #77 and #80 - - - - what I think.

Franco: Asking a five year-old " How was your day at kindergarten?" Is almost nonsensical to a child. Children have experiences and they don't rate them. Children certainly don't rate their days in the aggregate as adults do. A child simply doesn't know how to, and doesn't wish to answer such a question.  <<<<<

not just kindergarteners - - - even teenagers have a hard time answering that question

Don't agree with #1. I like the video accompaniment, too. Easy enough to just avert your eyes and just listen anyway. Thanks for posting.

Steve C: "Confucius say unintended consequences not an opinion, a law."Brilliant! Best one-line comment of the century.

. . . sigh . . . I was about to write 'they sure don't make'em like that any more' but then thought that the first two seasons of Modern Family do hold a candle to it.

This sort of attack could only be carried out by a Herman Cain or a Ben Carson, and he would probably be soon assassinated.This approach would also unleash the latent racism that has been (happily) supressed by political correctness. It is often said that self-destructive behavior does not improve until hitting rock bottom, but that bottom was reached long ago for urban blacks and still resists rehabilitation.One more obstacle is that there would be no shortage of oportunistic 'moderate' republican challengers to any candidate talking like this who would be quite willing to call the truth racism and bigotry.
