I don't know about you guys, but when I see the title, original music
by christopher guest, eugene levy, michael mckean, harry shearer, etc.
I know the movie is going to be awesome. I don't know why but I just
adore all those quirky songs of their's. I own all the soundtracks
except for Guffman which I still can't seem to find anywhere in the
world, but if anyone knows where I can find it, it would be
appreciated!

Very excited about this movie, can't wait to see Ricky in this!

Check ebay. Someone is selling what seems to be a fine quality
bootlegs. It's worth getting, if only to hear the last line in "Bubby
Made A Kishka".

IMDB has posted a release date of January 20th, 2006!! That is awesome
news, except i thought Chris Guest usually took many many months to
edit the hours of footage he usually gets from all the improv actors.
Doesnt Jan. 20th seem awfully soon? I mean I hope it is because I cant
wait to see it... but i dunno.

any thoughts?

Yeah, the imdb seems to have this one wrong. The tentative release
date is now October 2006:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0470765/board/nest/24257915

Which is still significantly faster than normal. It took them about 18
months to edit A Mighty Wind because of all the footage, whereas
they'll only have 10 or 11 on this one. Maybe they plan on having less
than their typical 80-hours worth of footage to sift through, being
that it's not documentary style??

Oh wow, exciting day!! A new interview with Eugene Levy (from zap2it)
was just posted and he's got lots of new details about FYC.

Including:
-Chris Guest will be playing director in more ways than one, taking on
the role of Jay Berman, an independent film director
-Eugene will play Morley Orfkin, the head of a talent agency
-despite not being listed on the imdb yet, Jennifer Coolidge's name is
listed among the cast members
-also, Ricky Gervais apparently has just a "little part"... so I guess
we were wrong about him being the main actor in question... my vote
switches to Mike McKean :)

Anyways, it's a great article and there's lots more including a more
in-depth plot summary. The full interview is here:
http://www.zap2it.com/movies/news/story/0,1259,---26542,00.html

Also, in another interview, Eugene names Christopher Moynihan (who
played the newest Mainstreet Singer in AMW) and Rachel Harris as two
people who will have bigger roles in the new movie.

Wow, tons of new information in this article.

Kudo craziness
Guest and company to send up season

Christopher Guest has decided to make a movie about the shooting of a
bad movie. In the process, the man who gave us "Best In Show" intends
to do a sendup of awards season.
Warner Independent Pictures is targeting "For Your Consideration,"
which Castle Rock Entertainment will produce, for a fall 2006 release.

Ricky Gervais will join a roster of thesps who've appeared in Guest's
previous pics, including Catherine O'Hara, Parker Posey, Harry
Shearer, Eugene Levy, Bob Balaban, Jennifer Coolidge, Michael McKean
and Fred Willard.

The film won't be a mockumentary in the style of Guest's "Waiting for
Guffman," "Best in Show" or "A Mighty Wind" but instead centers on a
movie-within-a-movie that will be largely improvised. Guest is
directing and co-writing with Levy.

Pic revolves around three actors shooting a small indie film whose
lives are turned upside down when buzz starts that their performances
are awards-worthy.

Guest said the movie won't be about the Academy Awards, although Oscar
is mentioned once. "Consideration" will end just before award
nominations are announced.

"We all know many people who have been through this reality, and how
it changes them. This happens to be an area I know something about.
It's a virus," Guest told Daily Variety.

The filmmaker said he and Levy had great fun writing the script for
the movie-within-a-movie, titled "Home for Purim," which takes place
in the South in the mid-1940s.

"Home for Purim" is an "extraordinarily poorly written movie. It's a
melodrama, and it's just awful. These actors never would have imagined
that this movie was going to change their lives," Guest said.

Gervais will play the head of a studio's specialty division producing
"Purim," while Guest will play a director who has shot 18 sitcom
pilots, none of which have gone to series. Levy will play an agent.
The three actors will be played by O'Hara, Posey and Shearer.

The saga begins when one of the actresses is told of an Internet rumor
that she's sure to be nominated for an award. A morning talkshow
co-anchor talks about awards chances with her male lead. And the pic's
third thesp is engulfed in similar rumors. "They are just buffeted
around by the weirdness of what happens," Guest said.

The indie film biz is sure to recognize itself in "Consideration,"
particularly the specialty film divisions at major studios.

In Guest's movie, "Home for Purim" is being produced by Sunshine
Classics, an arm of U.K.-based studio Hemisphere.

In real life, Guest's movie will be distributed by such a specialty
arm -- Warner Independent. In the past, Warner Bros. had distributed
Guest's films, but that was before Warner Independent was created.
Guest said Warner Independent was a natural fit.

Karen Murphy is producing, while Shangri-La Entertainment is financing
the pic, which will film in early October in Los Angeles.

Warner Independent president Mark Gill and exec Michael Andreen will
supervise, while Martin Shafer and Liz Glotzer will oversee for Castle
Rock Entertainment.

Date in print: Wed., Aug. 24, 2005, Los Angeles

Ooh, thanks for the update, Keymaster. I can't believe this movie is
coming out so soon (relatively!). I had myself prepared for mid-2007.

Also, this isn't earth-shattering, but Eugene revealed a bit more
about his character in a recent interview:
"I play an agent who used to be partners in a very large talent
agency," Levy says. "My partner died and everybody left. Evidently he
was the brains of the outfit, so now my setup couldn't be smaller. I
have absolutely no clout in the business but still consider myself a
player."

Sounding good. I still hope he gets to play an *beep* haha.

And then I looted the store.

I checked this out, and one source says:

West: George Bush doesn't care about black people!

It appears to be a transcript from the actual broadcast. Actively
hating a group and not caring about them are different things, the the
result can be (and was) the same.

I just read that 72% of African-Americans agree with Kayne West:

"A new USA Today Poll has found that 72 percent of African-Americans
feel that President Bush does not care about the country's Black
population. 67 percent of white respondents said he did."

Now that's interesting. Who do you think is right - the Black folks,
or the White folks? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh?
eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh?
eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh? eh?

West also said: I hate the way they portray us in the media. You see a
black family, it says, "They're looting." You see a white family, it
says, "They're looking for food." And, you know, it's been five days
[waiting for federal help] because most of the people are black. And
even for me to complain about it, I would be a hypocrite because I've
tried to turn away from the TV because it's too hard to watch. I've
even been shopping before even giving a donation, so now I'm calling
my business manager right now to see what is the biggest amount I can
give, and just to imagine if I was down there, and those are my people
down there. So anybody out there that wants to do anything that we can
help -- with the way America is set up to help the poor, the black
people, the less well-off, as slow as possible. I mean, the Red Cross
is doing everything they can. We already realize a lot of people that
could help are at war right now, fighting another way -- and they've
given them permission to go down and shoot us!

Does anybody know if West actually gave the biggest amount he could
give? They've been putting Caligula's father up as a fundraiser for
disaster relief. The Bush's and their extended family of monied
aristocrats have billions and billions and more billions of dollars.
Does anybody know how much of their own money they have given?

Have they shown they do care about black people in any way that
matters - ways that can affect real world change?

And by the way, has anybody here seen the movie they made about the
Bushes - "The Aristocrats"?

[CanYoAssDigIt] The Onion Does It Again...

Halliburton Gets Contract To Pry Gold Fillings From New Orleans Corpses' Teeth
September 14, 2005 | Issue 41•37

HOUSTON—On Tuesday, Halliburton received a $110 million no-bid
government contract to pry the gold fillings from the mouths of
deceased disaster victims in the New Orleans-Gulf Coast area. "We are
proud to serve the government in this time of crisis by recovering
valuable resources from the wreckage of this deadly storm," said David
J. Lesar, Halliburton's president. "The gold we recover from the human
rubble of Katrina can be used to make fighter-jet electronics,
supercomputer chips, inflation-proof A-grade investments, and luxury
yachting watches."

[CanYoAssDigIt] Kate Pierson Thought She Was Still In The Closet...

http://www.giampetruzzi.com/images/images/Stories/Kate%20Pierson/Pierson%202005/Kate%20Pierson%202005.htm

So, I was just as surprised as everyone else when Pierson revealed to
me in an exclusive interview last summer that, like her band mates
Keith Strickland and Fred Schneider, she's gay — or "wild and
bisexual" as she put it.

This interview reminded me of a story in the Onion. The only real
surprise was that Cindy Wilson is straight and married.

Area Homosexual Thinks He's Still In The Closet
September 1, 1999 | Issue 35•31

TOLEDO, OH—Despite the fact that everyone he meets obviously assumes
he is gay, 34-year-old Toledo-area homosexual Jeremy Schuitt still
thinks he's in the closet, local sources reported Tuesday.

A graphic designer who secretly frequents Cruisers, a local dance
club, Schuitt has told only four people about his homosexuality.
However, nearly all of his friends, co-workers and relatives are well
aware of it, as is the clerk at the neighborhood Starbucks where
Schuitt orders a "double mocha 'capp' in [a] paper [cup]" every day
before work.

"Jeremy is a very nice guy, and I totally support his sexual
orientation," said co-worker Diane Pulaski, one of the countless
people to whom Schuitt has not come out. "I think it's great that he's
so open about it."

Though Schuitt denies dating men and feigns ignorance of gay culture,
his extensive collection of handpainted Italian tiles and love of
Stephen Sondheim are well-known.

Among the many other indicators that have tipped off the world to
Schuitt's homosexuality include his running commentary on footwear,
his constant playing of the Pet Shop Boys' Very on the mini CD boom
box at his workstation, his standard greeting of "And how are we doing
today?" and the week-long depression he fell into following Princess
Diana's death.

"Sadly, we still live in a largely homophobic society, so there are
many reasons why an individual would choose to hide his gayness," said
magazine editor James Allenby, for whom Schuitt frequently does
freelance graphic-design work. "That's why I applaud Jeremy's decision
to just let it all hang out. He's so incredibly fun and flamboyant."

As people get to know Schuitt better, however, they inevitably
discover that his openness is purely accidental.

"What can I say? I just adore Paris," Schuitt told co-worker Geri Hahn
recently. "The Seine, The Louvre, Jean-Paul Gaultier—I'd die to live
there someday."

"That is," Schuitt added, "assuming my girlfriend Jackie would want to
move there, too."

Schuitt's invention of "Jacqueline"—his French-Canadian fiancée
currently touring Canada with the Montreal Ballet—is just one of the
many cover stories Schuitt has created to hide his homosexuality from
those in whom he cannot confide.

Unbeknownst to Schuitt, every one of his efforts has been
unsuccessful. Even those friends who have not accidentally found
Manhole Magazine's 1998 Boy-Toy Revue video Schuitt keeps hidden
behind his entertainment center have noted the other tell-tale signs
of homosexuality around his apartment, such his extensive collection
of pierrot figurines and coordinated futon cover and curtain set.

Progressive and open-minded, Schuitt's friends have fully accepted his
closeted status and have tried to create a comfortable environment for
his sexual denial. But despite their open-mindedness, many of these
friends were shocked and uncomfortable upon discovering that Schuitt
was not yet "out."

"Of course, I've always respected his right to privacy regarding that
very personal decision," friend Erin Chance said. "But there's no
doubt about it--he's gay. Not just a little gay, really gay."

Chance is among the many people who, upon meeting Schuitt, told him
that they "have lots of gay friends," only to have the closeted man
nervously reply that he thinks his sister might have a gay friend.

"I felt a little embarrassed for just assuming, but how was I supposed
to know?" Chance said. "My gaydar tells me he's way out of the
closet."

Janice Sharperson is among the four friends whom Schuitt, in moments
of abandon, has told, "I'm not sure, but sometimes I think I might be
bisexual."

"Big shocker, huh?" Sharperson said. "I know it makes sense that he'd
be used to hiding it after growing up Catholic in a small town, but
we're all secretly rooting for him to come out. It's getting kind of
weird acting like we don't know that everyone knows he likes men."

Even Schuitt's distant relatives are aware of his homosexuality.

"Last fall, at his cousin Bryan's wedding, Jeremy stood up to make an
announcement," said Bea Langan, Schuitt's great aunt. "I thought for
sure he was going to tell us all his little 'secret,' but instead he
told us that his girlfriend unfortunately couldn't make it because she
had pneumonia. Oh, well. Maybe next time."

Schuitt, who first realized he was attracted to males in high school,
has been perceived as gay since fifth or sixth grade.

"Jeremy is one of those students I'll never forget," said Marcia
Krause, Schuitt's middle-school drama teacher. "He was so sweet and so
talented--you should have seen him in Pippin. I wonder where he is
now. San Francisco or the West Village, I suppose."

[CanYoAssDigIt] Awful - listening to the Roberts coverage right now on NPR

Why is it the job of NPR reporters to be apologists for Roberts?

Oh yes, I forgot. They now interpret their mission to be the
propaganda arm of the executive branch of the government. They are a
bunch of overpaid hacks who are almost entirely out of the business of
journalism, and are now working in the field of public relations
(often viewed as a related field, but it is in fact the polar
opposite).

Neil Conan the barbarian is the absolute worst. It's no wonder the
mainstream organizations have lavished awards on him. This is typical.
Alexander Cockburn broke important stories such as the overturned
incurbator hoax that Bush Sr used to justify the first gulf war.
Virtually everybody else was taken in by it, including Amnesty
International and Human Rights Watch. Eventually they admitted their
error, but he broke the story that it was a hoax when it was early
enough for it to make a difference. Nobody in the MSM followed up on
his investigation, and he certainly never won any awards for that or
any of the other important work he's done.

Check out these people that are cheering on Neil Conan, at
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/1473935/posts -

These people seem to think that Conan also works for Fox. I don't
believe that is the case, though some of his peers at NPR are also
acceptable to Fox.
They regard principled opponents of the war to be "seditious and
corrupt Leftists ... everywhere, pro-islamofascist-terrorist
radical[s]... as a conservative defender of American virtues (what's
left of them) in the tradition of Samuel Clemens, I find this sort of
reflexive and childish response offensive, but not surprising coming
from fans of Neil Conan.

Their position is that Neil Conan... had the courage and the
intellectual honesty to pierce the mourning veil... they called
Conan's cowardly and snarky attack her "jump the shark moment."

I'd like to ask who else on this list feels that Cindy Sheehan was, in
fact, magnificent in how she handled the little creep, and in fact it
is NPR that jumped the shark - and if so, when?

Back to the hearings - a few of the senators are making some attempt
to pin down the future Chief Weasil of the Supreme Court. The NPR sock
puppets have laughed at their efforts to "lay a glove on him", calling
them "inquisitors."

Really terrible stuff. I wish I was listening to Democracy Now! instead.

I used to rank NPR below programs like Democracy Now! and above
network news. I have to report that ABCs coverage of the New Orleans
flood was far better than NPRs. It was more independent, more
hard-hitting, more informative. It is a sorry, sorry time for public
broadcasting.

I close with some more bracing coverage of Roberts than the spineless
mush we've been hearing on NPR.

On the Far Right of a Far Right Party
The Brief on Judge Roberts
By ELAINE CASSEL

I have to admit that I was fooled by the Cleaver family images
displayed by the Roberts family that sultry July night. Not a bad guy,
I thought. Doesn't look like a Scalia. Doesn't talk like a Scalia.
Maybe President Bush won't make good on his nuclear-type promises to
put a Thomas or Scalia on the high court. Maybe Roberts will be a guy
with a nice demeanor, a bright man and one who is - as judges should
be - fair and open-minded.

No such luck. While others were sleeping, I was up reading memoranda
and briefs from days when Roberts was a political operative disguised
as a lawyer working in the Reagan administration. It did not take long
for the nice-guy image to fade. In its place is a judge in the mold of
Scalia more than Thomas, one who is mightily impressed with himself
and his intellect and one who does not care a flip for everyday
Americans.

When he and his fellow "conservatives" talk about not "legislating
from the bench," what they mean is that the 14th Amendment that
guarantees constitutional rights to all Americans, regardless of what
state they live in, should, in effect, be abolished. The Bush line on
"legislating from the bench" means that the courts should not protect
the people from governments who interfere with those rights so
inimical to American values - freedom of religion, press, speech,
freedom from unreasonable searches and seizures, and due process and
reproductive rights.

Roe v. Wade was third in a line of cases that struck state laws
against contraception. If you think that Roe v. Wade won't be reversed
in the next few years with Roberts in the majority, you are living in
a dream world. Roberts writes contemptuously about Roe v. Wade and the
right of women to have any say over their own bodies. Any state laws
that prohibit end-of-life decision making by competent adults would
also be in jeopardy.

Legislating from the bench was what led the court to reject separate
but equal education. After all, Brown v. Board of Education was about
as activist a decision as one could imagine, overturning a prior
decision, Plessy v. Ferguson. States would be, in the Roberts scheme,
free to return to segregated education. This may not apply for black
people - perhaps we have advanced enough that black and white children
can learn together - but were Texas, for instance, to want to
segregate Hispanic children from "white" children, Roberts would think
that would be just fine.

Roberts would add one more vote to legislating from the bench as the
court seeks to roll back the laws that protect the environment.
Roberts' judicial decisions, memoranda and arguments as a private
attorney come down on the side of big business and against the
environment. Roberts would like to strip Congress and the federal
agencies of the power to make our air and water safe. Leave it to the
states, he would argue, and let the big businesses make their deals
with state legislatures.

Roberts would like to overturn federal laws and regulations that bring
a modicum of justice to everyday citizens. Like the Voting Rights Act.
Roberts came out strongly against portions of it as a lawyer working
in the Reagan White House. He argued that blacks did not have to have
"real" voting rights - the government just had to make people think
that they had some rights.

Those who claim not to know what Roberts thinks have not done their
homework. Roberts is at the far-right of a far-right party, the party
that thinks it has the corner on being right. Roberts may be right for
the powerful and the wealthy, but he is not right for ordinary
Americans, those of us who pay his salary.

We need a people's Supreme Court. Like George Bush, Roberts was born
into privilege. In his world view, the privileged and the powerful own
the playground and the marbles. The rest of us may as well go home and
do as we're told.

Elaine Cassel practices law in Virginia and the District of Columbia,
teaches law and psychology, and follows the Bush regime's dismantling
of the Constitution at Civil Liberties Watch. Her new book The War on
Civil Liberties: How Bush and Ashcroft Have Dismantled the Bill of
Rights, is published by Lawrence Hill. She can be reached at:

[CanYoAssDigIt] Re: Kitchie Nadal Inform....

Hey, thanks for the nice thoughts. I like to be scientific about
things, however rediculous they are, so I did exactly what this e-mail
said; I LOOKed up ''smith sisters murdered anonymously''. on GOOGLE

because after all, I don't want to be killed in the closet and
skinned to death, too. and what do you know, Snopes was the first
thing that came up at Google (attached below in it's entirety).

I was thinking about forwarding this to my friend Lisa Smith (aka
Danger Bird) but why waste her time?

You shouldn't waste your time, either. You should spend your time
wisely by going and listening to Lisa's music at
http://www.myspace.com/dangerbirdmusic
or by going and listening to Dweebish's music at
http://www.myspace.com/dweebishband

Thanks for being smart!

parents will kill you at night. they will kill you

DONT BELEIVE ME? LOOK IT UP N GOOGLE

Origins: We began encountering this tale in our inbox in late June
2005. Almost two months later, near the end of August 2005, versions
mailed to us began including this coda:
ps guys..i looked it up on google and it really happened. creepy eh? i
dont normally do these..but this one kind of bothered me a little bit.
heres the article.

"Smith sisters murdered anonymously

In 1993, two sisters were brutally murdered in the small-town
community of Plainfield, wisconsin. Lisa Smith, 19; and her sister,
Sarah Smith, 15; were attacked in their parent's home on the night of
November 17th, around 1:30AM. Sarah was found stabbed and strangled in
the bed where she had been sleeping. Her sister Lisa was found hanging
in her sister's closet, skinned alive. Police conducted an extensive
investigation, but to no avail. The motives for the attack were never
discovered, nor was the attacker ever found. The only lead athorities
had was a log found in Lisa's computer, showing a series of
threatening messages sent through an Internet Relay Chat service. The
case was closed in October of 2000."
Plainfield, Threatening with a knifeWisconsin, is a community of less
than a thousand people located in central Wisconsin. As its one claim
to fame, it was the birthplace of Ed Gein, a farmer who was convicted
of murdering one woman in 1957 and confessed to having killed another
in 1954. His notoriety came, however, from his use of dead bodies: he
mutilated the corpses of women, cutting off a variety of their body
parts and fashioning these into macabre items.

As one might suspect, murder in Plainfield is relatively rare. As one
might further suspect, no two teen girls named Lisa and Sarah Smith
were murdered in that town in 1993, nor their parents a number of
years later. The story is fiction, plain and simple, just another
example of the 'bad things will happen to you if you don't forward
this chain letter' genre. (The concept is stated explicitly in its
text: "this is a death chain. if you dont send this in the next hour
the parents will kill you at night.") We discuss another example of
this type of chain letter — one that uses a photo to tell its chilling
tale — in our "Bed Reckoning"
article.

Numerous inconsistencies in the Internet-circulated story provide
enough clues to its being fiction that even those lacking access to
online news archives should be able to dismiss it as an attempt to
yank their chains:

* The younger sister is murdered while the older girl is either
sleeping beside or going to the window to check on an odd sound, yet
the older sibling hears nothing happening in the room and is alerted
to something's being amiss only because the bed is wet and
ill-smelling upon her return to it.

* Rather than scream for help or run from the room, the older girl
hides in the closet.

* The older sister is pulled from the closet by her murderer and
her body is returned there to be hung for her parents to discover, yet
while she's in this closed space before her killer takes her from it,
she carves hers and her sister's names and the time and date. If she
had something with which to gouge messages into the floorboards or
onto the walls, why didn't she use it to stab at her attacker and
escape his clutches? Also, wasn't it thoughtful of her murderer to
afford her time to finish her woodworking escapades before coming for
her?

* The parents (who we presume are sleeping in the same house,
since the story doesn't mention their being absent that night) hear
nothing of their two daughters being murdered.

* The son (who we work out from the story is 12 years old: "15
years ago" less "2 years after the the sisters deaths" less a
nine-month gestation period) lives those twelve years in the murder
room yet never once notices the message carved in the closet.

* The girls were murdered "In 1993" yet the IM'ing ghost of one of
them informs her brother she died "15 years ago." Our calendar says
it's 2005, not 2008.

* Instant message capability didn't become an online reality until
1997 when AOL introduced its Instant Messenger service. Yahoo
Messenger (which the narrative tells us was used by the murderer to
contact one of the sisters prior to his killing her) began in 1999.
However, while IM didn't exist in 1993, chat rooms did — IRC (Internet
Relay Chat) was most certainly part of the cyber world at least as far
back as 1993, else I retain rather vivid yet baseless false memories
of what I was doing with a great many of my nights back then.

If all this seems too silly to bother dissecting, we initially thought
so too. Then we read this discussion at alexlab.com, which shows at
least some folks have been taking the story somewhat seriously.

[CanYoAssDigIt] Re: [Leslie_Morris_Online] The Best of Both Worlds

Leslie Morris is a savior.

I am leaving the Church of Ed Wood and joining the Church of Leslie
Morris because Leslie Morris has a proven record of salvation, and Ed
Wood doesn't. Also the Church of Ed Wood has censored every post I've
ever tried to post on their list, and I can post anything I want on
the Leslie Morris list.

Dog farts.

See what I mean?

All hail the new Savior!

Re: [Can Yo' ass Dig It?] [CanYoAssDigIt] Remember the Day

Sugarzareh is right on! I'm so sick of those America-hating liberals
that are hating America by voting for a guy who actually fought in a
war, who acknowledged he committed war crimes, and can't get enough of
it - he promised to fight Bush's war harder and better than Bush
himself! What a flippy floppy knee jerk weakling!

Give me a guy who coked and boozed his way through the national guard
- who heartlessly sends people off to fight and die for oil, a guy who
never troubled his brain with a useful thought, who doesn't listen to
anyone other than his circle of thugs and pirates, who doesn't mess
around with serving, but rather ruling, who doesn't bother with
elections, he just steals the office....

this is a guy who loves America and we real Americans gotta love the
guy that loves us!

Share the love and lynch a liberal today!

[CanYoAssDigIt] Remember the Day

If you hate America so much, you don't even know what day I'm talking
about, so log out and go to some far-left (i.e. timidly critical of
Caligula) site where you belong.

Let us honor this day of tragedy. Small gestures reflect large ones.
It's the law. Or at least should be. WILL be.

Go out and shoot an unarmed person whom you have convinced is your
friend. Spy on your neighbor, and tell. Give your money to a rich
person. Feel sorry for corporations. Keep tabs on everybody. Follow
people home from mosques. Just say no to Miranda rights. When asked for
a Social Security Number, donate DNA along with it. Kill anybody who
acts like Jesus. But suck Jesus's cock.
