It's a co-worker. But it might be politically smart for me to be there. grrrr

It's been a stressful year. New job.

I could use an evening with you and Lawrence libs. And you haven't seen my pictures of Crawford yet.

We really need to get together. I guess we need to schedule another meetup in Lawrence.

5. I think he's referring to the slaughter ...
of rhino's for their horn's supposed aphrodisiac properties. I doubt Viagra has actually impacted that.

I agree 100%:"Tucker Carlson is an idiot"

I'm a Catholic, and I'm more than aware of the problems with clergy. But I know many MANY dedicated priests. Tucker owes them all an apology. :grr:

That's why the interstates in Chicago are under construction 24/7/365.

Listen, the phrase "We're still the best country in the world to live in," is an excuse for not fixing what is actually wrong with America. Thanks, Tucker, for pointing it out so succinctly.

63. Said Tucker the civil engineer


American Society of Civil Engineers

Infrastructutre Report Card


http://www.asce.org/reportcard/2005/index.cfm


Congested highways, overflowing sewers and corroding bridges are constant reminders of the looming crisis that jeopardizes our nation's prosperity and our quality of life.

With new grades for the first time since 2001, our nation's infrastructure has shown little to no improvement since receiving a collective D+ in 2001, with some areas sliding toward failing grades.

The American Society of Civil Engineers' 2005 Report Card for America's Infrastructure assessed the same 12 infrastructure categories as in 2001, and added three new categories. Access the complete Report Card with details on each infrastructure category and state infrastructure information.

15. Actually, that's one of the smarter things he says.
Powdered rhino horn is considered an aphrodesiac. Now, with Viagra, people can buy something that actually works, hence little to no demand for rhino horn.

The president of the US is an asshole who lied to take us to war. His chief of staff is likely to be indicted for treason any day now. The price of gas is going through the roof.

And Tucker wants to talk about saving rhinos with boner pills?????

19. Grant is burried in Grant's tomb;) I know Rhinos, Rhinos are friends
of mine; and Tucker Carlson is no Rhino (although like Catherine the Great, he may have some Rhino-relationships...I'm sure that there is a bar for this fetish somewhere in NYC).

You're right, Tucker Carlson is the personification of idiocy!

20. He may be correct on this count. The rhinos are being exterminated
by hunters who are harvesting their horns, which as a ground up powder, is considered to be a sex aid for the dysfunctional. Therefore, if the people who are using the ground up horns, switch to Viagra, the rhinos would be safe.

49. I just took the statement at face value, possibly because I made
the statement about Viagra today in a conversation. The Republicans certainly don't care anything about animal conservation. Perhaps had I seen the show that you saw, I would have drawn the same conclusion you did. I agree that Tucker is no rocket scientist.

51. Sorry if I left out details
Tucker was on Bill Maher.

And I swear that tie is choking his brain cells.

Some of the things he said:

There is a cure for Aids.

No rhinos have been killed since Viagra was invented.

We have a beautiful interstate system in this country. Europe is falling apart.

The principal in Long Island who canceled the prom is jealous of his students.

Spike Lee is reckless and irresponsible (this he yelled at Spike; I was afraid they were going to come to blows).

53. Thanks. As a matter interest about the rhinos: game wardens
in Africa have been saving the rhinos by sawing off their horns with chain saws. It doesn't seem to effect the animal's lifestyle or health and stops them from being a target for poachers who only want the horns.

57. Viagra and other similar drugs are sold all over the world.
I don't think powdered rhino horn was legal in the US (although I'm not sure of that), but that doesn't mean it wasn't fairly available in most large cities.

There's a convenience store near me that used to sell all types of Oriental supplements that claimed to include Shark fins, Tiger balls (eeech), Rhino horn, eye of gnewt and other things. While I'm not sure this was authentic, I couldn't read the packaging.

The show was frustrating because he can't shut up!!!!!!!!!

Maher got him good at the end though -- NY Times doesn't have influence, but Spike Lee does... (paraphrasing..)


Didn't much care for the show tonight.

Edited to add: Arianna Huffington was fab.

61. Ah, the old broken clock thing
Probably some truth to that. Anything that takes pressure off of wild populations can't hurt. Rhinos and tigers aren't the only species depleted by these folk beliefs. In Latin America turtle eggs are considered an aphrodisaic and sea turtle nests get hammered. I was in Baja Sur this year and picked up a cool T-shirt. It had a cartoon turtle on it holding a bottle of Viagra with the caption in Spanish saying more or less " you don't need my eggs anymore now that you've got this stuff."
