F.O.A.D. March 26th 13 03:06 PM

Oh, the irony of it...
 


On today's show, Rush Limbaugh spoke indignantly about two unidentified
studies he says are being done, one to determine why so many lesbians
are obese and the other to find out why so many are alcoholics:

"And, of course, the answers to the first case is they don't have to
deal with men, so they don't have to worry about their appearance.
They're not trying to please men. So they can be obese. It's no big
deal. Alcohol, who knows? They're having to deal with women so they're
drunk."

Limbaugh went on to insult Chief Supreme Court Justice John Roberts's
cousin, who happens to be a lesbian. Jean Podrasky plans to attend
Supreme Court hearings on California's ban on gay marriage as Roberts's
guest on Tuesday.

Limbaugh painted Podrasky with his extra-wide stereotyping brush as
well, saying "I can't ask whether chief justice's lesbian cousin is any
of those things, because people would think I'm being mean."


Limbaugh himself is ... ahem... quite corpulent, and he has a history of
drug addiction which includes arrest for doctor shopping in order to
obtain OxyContin. By his own twisted logic does that mean he is (gasp)
a lesbian??

Harry has a long history with sluts. He was a pre teen when he seduced
his first one. For all we know he hasn't given up the practice. He
should compare notes with Bill Clinton.

No, I don't know or pay any attention to *e#c. The only time I see

Enough said though. I'll let you carry on.

Well, maybe. I have *e#c bozo-binned several different ways, along with
only a few other posters here, including your old buddy, but they both
keep trying. Another moron in my bozo bin changes his handle a bit every
couple of days, and only is here to comment about me in an idiotic way.
But he isn't "binned" on his handle or email address. He'll never figure
it out. (Yes, Earl, I mean you.) I have a couple of other idiots down
there in the bin.

I keep PsychoSnotty out of the bin for reasons you suggested in another
post. It's fun to watch him misinterpret everything in the news,
everything posted here, and his belief that everyone he doesn't like
here is me. He's a genuine crackpot and I am convinced he's the same in
his real life, and one of these days he'll shoot one of his neighbors in
Windsor.

---------------------------------------------

I guess I don't share in your pleasure of witnessing people's problems
or perceived problems or seeing them twist and turn with their
rebuttals. There's something bizarre about that for me.

Don't get me wrong. I am not professing any "goody-goody" attitude.
I have often enjoyed some of the debates and especially some of the
humor that is expressed from time to time. But, it should be
light-hearted IMO and not mean spirited. You are a wordsmith and can
clobber people sometimes who don't have your expertise with prose.
So what? That doesn't make them any less of a person.

Whatever. I'll try to stick to my style and way of expressing
myself. Others have the same right.

bozo bin and ignore him.

Your buddy meyer\hank enables him

---------------------------------

I know what he's up to but I can keep a secret.



A puzzlement. You know what *e#c is up to? I doubt even his therapist
knows that, if he has one.

There's no mystery about several "items" on your buddy meyer/hank's
agenda, though. One of them probably was not finding his way into my
bozo bin, because it was obvious he wanted me to pay attention to him.
He's not clever.

========================

No, I don't know or pay any attention to *e#c. The only time I see
anything by him is if someone else responds to one of his posts.
Knowing Jim though, I sometimes get a kick out of some of his quips.
Enough said though. I'll let you carry on.





I don't pay attention to meyer/hank/jim, but I sometimes see something
he's posted second hand. He's an angry old fart of no consequence.

------------------------------

My lips are sealed and my fingers tied. :-)





Not to worry...I wouldn't try to pressure you for info and, of course, I
don't need to do so.

Well, maybe. I have *e#c bozo-binned several different ways, along with
only a few other posters here, including your old buddy, but they both
keep trying. Another moron in my bozo bin changes his handle a bit every
couple of days, and only is here to comment about me in an idiotic way.
But he isn't "binned" on his handle or email address. He'll never figure
it out. (Yes, Earl, I mean you.) I have a couple of other idiots down
there in the bin.

I keep PsychoSnotty out of the bin for reasons you suggested in another
post. It's fun to watch him misinterpret everything in the news,
everything posted here, and his belief that everyone he doesn't like
here is me. He's a genuine crackpot and I am convinced he's the same in
his real life, and one of these days he'll shoot one of his neighbors in
Windsor.

---------------------------------------------

I guess I don't share in your pleasure of witnessing people's problems
or perceived problems or seeing them twist and turn with their
rebuttals. There's something bizarre about that for me.

Don't get me wrong. I am not professing any "goody-goody" attitude. I
have often enjoyed some of the debates and especially some of the humor
that is expressed from time to time. But, it should be light-hearted
IMO and not mean spirited. You are a wordsmith and can clobber people
sometimes who don't have your expertise with prose. So what? That
doesn't make them any less of a person.

Whatever. I'll try to stick to my style and way of expressing myself.
Others have the same right.


Any number of people, even a few who might actually be friends of
Scotty, have suggested that he try to calm down and get control of his
emotions here. I have suggested that to him, and told him a couple of
times that there were mental health counselors in his area who might be
able to help him with anger management and other issues on a sliding
scale fee basis. When he called me on the phone a few years ago, I
offered him ways to get needed medications for nothing or next to
nothing, and to get access to physicians who would accept a sliding
scale fee basis. His response? That someone would be "compensated" for
offering him help. An absurdity.

There also have been attempts by some of those Scotty thinks are his
enemies to just treat him civilly and give him a pass on his insane
utterings. That doesn't work, either.

I'm no paragon of behavior here, but I don't lose my temper and lash out.

Interestingly, I have about 65 "close" friends on Facebook, and I am in
several groups with nearly 1000 people I've never met, and we have none
of the insulting bull**** there that pervades this newsgroup. Once in a
while, we get a Florida Jim who thinks he is going to rise up in the
ranks by personally insulting others in the groups. That sort of poster
loses his access, really fast.

I might be up in New Haven in a few weeks for my first trip this year to
the old stomping grounds. I plan to share at least one clam pie for
dinner at Pepe's, and to check out Katz's deli on the Woodbridge side of
the Merritt Parkway bridge over Whalley Avenue. A lot of my old friends
like it:

----------------------------------------

For some reason I can't exactly place that tunnel, although I remember
the Merritt Parkway and Whalley Ave.
I got my first driver's license in CT. When allowed to use one of my
parent's cars for a date, I somehow often ended up on top of West
Rock, by the tunnel on the Wilbur Cross Parkway. I remember the
winding, "S" turns climbing to the parking spots on the top. Never
had much time up there as it was always patrolled by the police
looking to "bust" you and your girlfriend just for the fun of it.

I remember the Wilbur Cross Parkway was concrete at the time. Miles
and miles of "ker-plunk, ker-plunk, ker-plunk, ker-plunk" as the tires
hit the expansion joints.

Les Shaw's restaurant was on "our" side of the tunnel. I worked
there for a while as a bus-boy wearing a stupid chef's hat, apron and
bandana, walking around the dining room handing out "popovers" to
anyone who wanted one. My girlfriend and her entire family (her
idea) decided to have dinner there one night, unknown to me, and I
was mortified with embarrassment. Les Shaw's is one of the last
restaurants I can remember that required a jacket and tie for the guys
to be seated. They actually kept small inventory of them in the coat
room that could be borrowed if you didn't wear one and wanted to have
dinner. Don't know if Les Shaw's still exists. Probably closed.
The link is a picture ... taken in the 50's but it looks about how I
remember it from the 60's.

The tunnel *is* the one on the Wilbur Cross/Merritt Parkway...the tunnel
was renamed "Heroes' Tunnel. I think I remember reading something about
Les Shaw's closing. It certainly was one of "the" places to go for a
fancy dinner back in the day.

Never "parked" on West Rock. We usually watched the submarine races by
the beach on the east side of Milford Harbor, or along the shoreline in
West Haven, or, along the road past the fence that led to the Yale Golf
Course.

The worst summer job ever was one a college buddy of mine had way back in
the day. He was premed and somehow he wangled a summer job with a nearby
states public-health service. His job was to check women for venereal
diseases, which he did by swabbing their lady parts and sending the swab
off to a lab. When school restarted in the fall he said he was never going
to go near a woman again. But he changed his mind about a week later.

I have absolutely no memory of ever being in Ansonia. I do remember
Shelton, because back then you had to drive through it to get to Lake Zoar.

I do remember fondly how close together so many cities and towns in
Connecticut were and, obviously, are. In the summer, we hung out at
Woodmont with a crowd of kids from New Haven, Milford, Waterbury,
Woodbridge, Stratford, Bridgeport, even from such far away places as
Brooklyn and, gasp! Ansonia. In fact, I remember a nice gal named Rhoda
from Ansonia.

When we got driver's licenses, no one thought it was a big deal to drive
a half an hour to Waterbury or Bridgeport to pick up a special gal for a
date. The Connecticut Turnpike was fairly new, and I think it was two 25
cent tolls to Bridgeport.

My memory of "Blackboard Jungle" was that the school *was* co-ed. I
could be wrong about that. Hey, who would want to go to a single-gender
high school, anyway? :)

I saw the movie when it first came out at the Whalley Theater which,
sadly, is now no longer a theater. I think I was about 11 or 12. My mom
took me to a matinee. I just can't remember whether it was a
single-gender school in the movie. Next time it pops up on cable, I'll
watch it.

Do you recall "Hopkins Grammar School" in New Haven? Private boys'
school. It merged with a private girls school some years ago. I had some

Floyd Little, went to Bordentown Military Prep, an all boys prep school,
to toughen up after "normal" high school, before he went on to Syracuse
University.

You were boffing sluts when you were 10. Did your mom supervise those
events too? Way kinky!

My memory of "Blackboard Jungle" was that the school *was* co-ed. I
could be wrong about that. Hey, who would want to go to a
single-gender
high school, anyway? :)

Pretty sure it was a boy's only vocational high school in New York
City
although it had at least one female teacher.

It was a novel by Evan Hunter later made into a movie back in the
50's.

Do you recall "Hopkins Grammar School" in New Haven? Private boys'
school. It merged with a private girls school some years ago. I had
some

No recollection of Hopkins Grammar School. We only lived in the area
for about 2 and a half years and I was in high school.

My mother had (and still has) a voracious appetite for books and
reading. She's 88 now and in a nursing home. We got her a Kindle and
an account at Amazon and had to have her own Wi-Fi set up in her room
so she can download books. She also still uses her laptop daily for
news and email.

When I was a kid she insisted that I read at least three books during
summer vacations. She didn't care what I read as long as I read
something.
I remember plowing through "Hawaii" by James Michner soon after it
first came out. I was about 10 or 11 years old. It had some content
that some thought was too adult for a 10 or 11 year old, but she
didn't care. It was a great book and I've reread it a couple of
times.

The only time she "interfered" with what I read was one summer when I
got hung up on the original "Hardy Boys" series. I think there were
about 26 of them at that time. After a while my mother suggested
that although the Hardy Boy's stories were good to read, I should also
read other stuff as well. Most I really don't remember but a few have
stuck in my head, like "The Blackboard Jungle", "Hawaii", "The
Miracle of the Bells", "The Little World of Don Camillo" and a few
others.
