Red, you're simply a self-obsessed pain in the derriere with an excess of moral righteousnes 😞
Turn off your TV 😕 Get a real life 🙄 Leave this thread to Gatecrasher's RHP Faces 😉
Where it would appear that I reign supreme amongst persons of the male persuasion on RHP 😏
Defend that to the death, you mindless twit. 😴 Stop parroting Jimmy Swaggart, Polly!!!
Some people, like yourself, choose to waste that right by babbling mindless drivel.
Originally posted by StarrmanThis quote is so famous that I did not believe it was necessary to credit the author. Additionally, the source of the quote is a matter of scholarly debate.
Attribute your quotes to those that penned them.
The quote is widely attributed to Voltaire, but some scholars say it was actually penned by Evelyn Beatrice Hall.
I personally like to think of the quote as being the work of Voltaire.
In a later post I used the phrase "inalienable right;" that quote we will attribute to Jefferson, although it could just as easily be Locke.

😀 Who amongst us would be better-placed to judge both mindlesness and drivelhood than yourself? 😞
Originally posted by huckleberryhoundI lived without tv for about a decade, and also spent 8 years in houses with TVs but had no say over what we watched...so mostly I didn't watch anything. Didn't miss much, except that people refer to pop culture figures and I have no idea who they are. Still couldn't pick the ones with familiar names out of a lineup, although I do think I could tell the difference between Brittney Spears and Fidel Castro because he has a cigar and a hat.😉
I lived without a TV, and a mirror for over a year, about six years ago.
I lived to tell the tale too 🙂
Originally posted by Red NightActually no, because I forget to look for them. I love John Stewart -- I have a book of his that's a hoot.
It's not on HBO. It's on Comedy Central. Do you watch the Daily Show or the Colbert Report? same network. Usually comes on basic cable.
The show is also in syndication on one of the other networks.
You can watch the infamous Tom Cruise episode on-line at this site:
