Do you know what happened 163 years ago? Back in 1850?

File this post in Why We Lose. Best to leave the Revisionism to the commies, Rodge. You have no talent for it.
You would have called the women of 1850 "flat chested." Today's average American breast is an entire cup size larger. Pretty ghey of you to be whining about that.
The other lesson of real history I have for you is that before the currently fashionable Neo-Puratanism, hetero-males were far more physically affectionate with each other. They held hands, walked arm-in-arm, kissed, touched, hugged; openly, gleefully, un-phobically.
Watch some variety shows from the 60's like Dean Martin, Bing Crosby, Andy Williams, Bob Hope, Jackie Gleason, Milton Berle, George Burns. They you'll see how real men behave.
Oh my.

"...currently fashionable Neo-Puratanism..."? Where would I go to find that? Even if spelled correctly, I don't know where in the world one would find anything remotely resembling purItanism, outside possibly of some muslim countries. Certainly not in this country.

No, they didn't. They were all just like John Wayne and me. I know these things. I also know you're teasing Rodge. Keep it up he's been slipping in the John Wayne department lately. :-)

Don't come to Texas bub, we might show what that puritanism is all about. You missed Helly's reference anyway. It's nothing to do with religion. You're new so you get a pass. That means I won't explain further. -

"48ers" devout followers of Karl Marx who had just lost their first socialist attempt to take over Europe began to flee to the United States. They would enjoy the open embrace of the NYC Socialist Club but would mostly move to the interior of the US. They would create the new Republican Party and eventually find an empty suit from Springfield named Abe to lure the vote of the non-east coasters. They would eventually bring in the Morrell Land Grant Act and the 14th amendment and completely destroy the America of Jefferson.
And Pat Garrett was born. -

There are few better authorities on men than that great Southern lady, Miss Florence King.
She wrote a great piece in the American Spectator a while ago in which she commented on the pitch of actors' voices. (Searched but did not find.) Back in the 50s and 60s, actors were baritones. Today, they are tenors or higher.
Richard Widmark, William Holden, Robert Mitchum…
Tom Hanks, Johnny Depp, Tom Cruise…
Sad. -

I knew Santa Cruz County before UCSC not only influenced the politics, but forever destroyed what conservatism existed beforehand.
On one hand, I want to delete this comment because it will change nothing; but my heartache is what it is. *sigh*
Rush stated it best three decades ago when he called it, "The dumbing down of America." His statement best coincides with this retrospective joke of truth. -

"Female literalism blinds you."
Casca, how can I argue with that when you give "real boobs" such deep allegorical substance?
"Casca speaks the troot"
Man up, Rodge. When you hide behind her skirts and pout, you know I'm right.
Renojim: "Neo-Puratanism…" Even if spelled correctly,…
If there is a correct way to spell it, I WIN. Thank you so much.
"Where would I go to find that?"
Next time your civil rights are being trampled at a DUI check point, you'll think of me and feel even worse for denying the obvious. Until then, be happy you don't have to pretend to be traveling with your sister when renting a hotel room in Utah.
" I also know you're teasing Rodge."
That's my job, Iri. But it only works when it's real. -

Casca's a woman. H/crap! I'm so far out of the loop it's almost embarrassing. All this time I could have been hitting on her. Sheesh. I blame Crybaby Bush for that too.
