• SNL: Mick Jagger Performs Presidential Election-Themed Blues Song

  May 21, 2012 at 11:38pm

  In reply to Watchyer6.

  Guitar styles are hard to quantify for objective comparison, so let’s apply equality-minded solutions.

  Let’s see… Jimi Hendrix was 1/4 Cherokee, and also black. Beck is a known descendant of English blood, making his minority status null. Knowingly or not, Beck was constantly repressing Hendrix. And as Hendrix’s fellow Native American Elizabeth Warren points out, Beck moved his guitar playing goods to market on roads the rest of us paid for. Advantage: Hendrix.

  And then there’s healthcare. In 1969 Beck fractured his skull in a car wreck. Nearly a year later Hendrix had a sip of beer. Hendrix died in the ambulance… Beck lives today. If this isn’t an indictment of our capitalist healthcare system, then what is? Advantage: Beck. But for all the wrong reasons.

  I think we need to have hearings in Congress to really get at the truth here. We can’t wait any longer.

  Well look at that: a typographical error. Guess it’s time I bowed out of the race.

• Did Rick Santorum Really Call Africa a ‘Country?’

  I could see myself misstating somethingike that, but I am not running for president. Santorum is a bright guy but he doesn’t appear presidential. Appearance and demeanor are important, like it or not.

• This Is What Saturn’s Biggest Storm Looks Like

  November 19, 2011 at 10:17am

  Saturn is about 10x the diameter of earth (120536:12756), and a “day” on Saturn takes 0.44 earth days. So from sunrise to sunset, Saturn has rotated 360 degrees just over two times. That’s probably why storms appear as bands in its atmosphere.

  Probably not a comet hit. Can’t rule it out. But storms in an atmosphere churning like that make storms on earth look like static structures.

• Meet the Face Behind Apple’s European Siri…and It’s a Man

  I think that’s the same voice as the Mac Talk (I think that’s the name). Every time I hear it I think of Fitter Happier by Radiohead.

• Stunning Time-Lapse Video of Australian Night Sky

  OK nobody here blamed the Obama administration for anything in this thread. Let’s keep it going! ;)

• Michael Moore Says Bin Laden ‘Executed,’ Not Killed: ‘He Won’

  May 5, 2011 at 2:13pm

  The Nuremberg Trials showed the world what the Third Reich had done in secrecy. We already know what the Taliban is doing. No comparison.

• ABC: ‘Exclusive’ Video From Inside OBL’s Compound After the Raid

  “and a woman used as human shield, were also killed in operation, according to NBC”

  If this is Islamic fascists’ idea of a brave holy warrior… well I guess we shouldn’t be surprised.
