So does Wisconsin need to find some specific Democrats or will any do? Pretty sure Idaho has some Dems we’re not doing anything with.
I don’t get onions’ chemical warfare on my eyes. If you don’t want to be cut, don’t have so much flavor.
Finally saw The King’s Speech. Good, but I doubt the shootout they added to punch up the ending was historical. Also, did the royalty really have a jive talking robot back then?
Kidding; didn’t see that movie. Only thing that gets me to the theater these days is incomprehensible CGI robots smashing each other.
Evaporated milk goes great with disintegrated chicken and dematerialized biscuits.
I’m not going to watch the Oscars, so someone tell me if I won one.
Movie Idea: Terrorist attack at Oscars leaves film crews to take over as movie stars.
Actually, that was an awesome movie idea. I’ll start writing the script; someone get together a million dollars to send me for it.
No matter all my complaints and that I barely ever go to the movies, I’ve never successfully not watched the Oscars.
“It’s g-g-good to be the k-k-king.”
I shouldn’t feel this embarrassed for professionals preforming on stage.
So in reality, Batman sounds like a chimney sweep.
The Oscars really is an acting test because only the greatest actors could make this material work.
I only know how to recognize bad editing.
I do really want to see the King’s Speech. Nothing inspires like seeing rich, powerful people overcome obstacles.
If Randy Newman just played the piano while saying his Oscar speech, it would be no different from his songs.
Yeah, I don’t get Randy Newman or the other musics kids these days like.
Theoretically, we don’t want trains to wreck, but they’re so much fun to watch!
Know what would be really boring? A fantastic Oscars where there was nothing to snark about.
I remember when Halle Berry won an Oscar and they had to bring in the national guard to keep white actors from blocking her from getting it.
Feels like I should use this time to rant about how Hollywood is the only place left in America where racism in hiring is tolerated.
Like for King’s Speech, it was basically BLACKS NEED NOT APPLY for all the lead rolls. You can justify it how you want, but it’s disgusting.
For her performance in Star Wars, this should change Portman’s Oscar total from -1 to 0.
Oscar Winners: Because “rich actor” isn’t quite exclusive enough.
Youve got Rino in Idaho that is worse then even a bunch of dems. Heritage took the recent 69$ Billion cuts and assigned a percentage based on how much of the cuts they voted for. You can choose any state. Idahos Labrador pretty good 86% but your RINO Simpson 29%. Together that gives your state a 57%.

-Leftists should take those princples they use for energy production like “sustainable and efficient” and apply it to their government machinery and welfare states.
-My new cheer at leftists.
“Don’t hate, I just want the “Prius” of government”
I HAVE A DREAM
-I loathe modern leftists and I still assure you all in a few years those smeg heads will turn against electric cars because of the toxic batteries like they turned against ethanol and will act like Republicans were the ones who forced it on the country using the power of the state. That being said I wish we would get oil to 35$ barrel because watching middle eastern tyrants and Achmedinjhad, Putin, Chavez, Castro etc.. all go bankrupt and being hunted down like dogs by their own people is my dream and I literally would drive a prius hell a go kart to get to see that in my lifetime.
Onions when cut release a gas that irritates your eyes. If you light a candle or (what I do) cut onions next to the stove while the flame is on, it burns up the gas before it can irritate your eyes. I’m not a science-y person. This is just how it was explained to me, and I’ve never had a problem with onions since learning the trick.
Random thought: George Will has written an excellent article on liberals and trains.
As I have stated previously, liberals and some conservatives both love trains – items of the past. The difference is striking, however. Liberals love stupid trains that try to fill a market they’ve failed to fill in the past. Conservative train lovers love trains like we love muscle cars and videos of Jim Brown playing football in the 1950s: they are reminders of the greatness and coolness of the past. We like things liberals hate. Naturally then, we love noisy, powerful, coal-burning trains and their glorious rivers of black pollution – listen to that throttle open up at 1:38! Yeehaw!
Frank, please moderate my comment or George Will and I will run you over with our steam locomotive. Thanks!
“I’ve never successfully not watched the Oscars.”
Well, if you were minimally cultured, you wouldn’t have that problem.
What do you suppose it would it cost to get Jack Hanna to fit all Democrat congresspersons with radio collars and brightly colored ear-tags in case they go missing again? What dose of tranquilizer dart does it take to knock out a Democrat Senator?
Don’t blame Portman for the disasters that were the Star Wars prequels – she managed to deliver her lines from those jokes of scripts with a straight face.
I liked the speech given about how it’s wrong that no Wall Street execs have gone to prison since the financial mess began. So we should send financial execs to prison but Roman Polanski can get an Oscar without any objection?
“Movie Idea: Terrorist attack at Oscars leaves film crews to take over as movie stars.”
Would anyone notice the difference?
Could they be more blatant? One of this year’s big movies The Black Swan has no black people in it!
So I take it that you won’t be seeing the new Transformers movie? Since that’s not what it’s about, despite what one might think. Although, the way they’ve been increasing the amount of Transformers in their movies, they might make up almost 20% of the screentime this movie! But is that enough?
@Marko: In addition to massive amounts of black, black smoke, part of the joy of a steam engine is that almost all of the mechanical aspects are fully exposed. You can watch it and see how it works at the same time.
My random thought of medium randomness: Over the weekend, does Frank suffer from random thought constipation that is only relieved on Monday?
We’d be glad to loan Tom Harken to Wisconsin. In fact, they can just keep him.
The only part of the Oscars worth watching was when Christian Bale forgot his wife’s name. I figure there will be pictures in the tabloids of a bruised and bloody Bale….
Frank was just one pent-up Random Thinker over the weekend, wasn’t he!?
So, onions are the ‘Aliens’ of the Plant Kingdom? They emit a noxious substance when cut. Probably needs a few more billion years of evolution before they come ripping out of our chest though.
Damn, who’s going to voluntarily say they are Sparticus, now that they know how he turns out? It’s a long way from ‘20,000 Leagus Under The Sea’.
So, the Oscars are going for the Youth demographic with James Franco and Anne Hathaway, then they wheel out 90-something, stroke victim, Kirk Douglass. Bet that kept the Youth demographic watching.
Charlie Sheen as Presenter, would have been better for the ratings, but hell on the F.C.C .fines.
That B*tch that used profanity really p*ssed me off.
There were Oscars on last night? Was it a 3 hour long Sesame Street Special? Even if not, I guarantee there were nothing but complete and total Muppets on stage.
Hollywood Script – Adam Sandler plays Charlie Sheen! It’s a can’t miss! Cameos by Jim Carrey as Obama and Justin Bieber as one of the hookers! Oscars all around!!!
“Evaporated milk goes great with disintegrated chicken and dematerialized biscuits.”
Yum! Sounds like field rations back in the Eighties! Do they all come in cans?
