You'd be the poo flinger.

Jeezzz Louise, what's with all the lousy grammar? It's "you be the poo flinger" and you'd be right.  :(

I had a English Teacher like you once. It's not like you cant still read it.
But if it keeps you on your toes, Then by all means. Correct away.
Changing opinions one mistake at a time.

What part of England was your teacher from?

A friend from long ago was a Professor of English at a local (not near here) Community College.  He insisted he was not an English Professor.  He was born and raised in the USA.

;D

Tomorrow represents a big day for the "poo-flingers." 

Rested and fresh from a long winter's nap in Mom's basement, the OWS crowd is promising "Global Disruption." on May 1st. 

So if they're a person short at Starbucks tomorrow morning, that's why.

I love this season's new imagery.





This is fun.  This poster looks very creative, but I bet the older among you recognize it. . .


If you answered 1925 Alexander Rodchenko's Communist Party poster from Russia, give yourself an extra point!


You may remember, it was also copied and used in President Obama's 2008 campaign. I guess knowing what we know now, it probably won't be revived for 2012 (not the Communism part, the dog part).

When attacked by a mob of clowns, always go for the juggler.

What a dud the Global Disruption day has become!

Definition:  A strike is when productive members of a community or workforce refuse to produce.

Well, there's your problem right there!

How exactly do you strike from doing nothing?  Hmmm, that's an interesting concept, sort of reminds me of moving from one beach bar to another.  Just a bum being a bum somewhere else.

Maybe the problem with this "strike" is that the participants are required to "produce" something to begin with. I mean, producing something other than smell, crime, etc. I think Conan nailed it.

Back to my post, how did Rebecca Black become the target of the anarchists? And has anyone heard whether that averted bridge bombing attack was connected to OWS or the tea party?

I like how smoke grenades now count as "bombing".
