10:58 AM Mr. Blue
You know how in old movies they tended to film a woman differently? Like, it's really closely zoomed-in, and the image is all blurred, and they look like they're glowing? Then they cut to a man, and even from further away you can see individual wrinkles and blemishes on his face?
I noticed last night that Fox News does this with their female broadcasters.
11:14 AM Mr. Silver
Dreamy Cam
Yeah...they used to do that with Cybill Shepherd on Moonlighting to the degree of irritating.
11:24 AM Mr. Silver
One of the Daily Show correspondents used to do that as a gag in her segment
She was completely surrounded by flowers in super-heavy dream-vision every time the camera was on her.
11:38 AM Mr. Blue
Yeah, Beth Littleford.
I remember when she interviewed the lead singer of Gwar, in costume, surrounded by flowers. And then they went to a golf course, and the dude's enormous rubber wings were sticking out of the golf cart as she drove him around.
11:41 AM Mr. Silver
LOL

12:20 PM Mr. Silver
Cool...something about the US Civil War I'm interested in:
12:23 PM Mr. Silver
The most advanced pieces of junk on water! Zow!
12:31 PM Mr. Silver
On that note, there's this:
"Will be testable in 18 months if the Navy can get more Lego Technic parts."
"The most advanced partial pair of firefighting legs in the US robotic arsenal."
1:03 PM Mr. Blue
"So far in testing SAFFiR is excellent at carrying people out of burning buildings, but we can't seem to keep those people from being crushed to death."
By my calculations these droids will be at peak performance just when I’m going to be about the age when I don't want to do anything at all.
2:31 PM Mr. Silver
Wa wa waaaaaaahhhh
HAHAHA - “[The advertisers] are not canceling the business on our stations. They’re just saying they don’t want their spots to appear in my show. We don’t get any revenue from ‘em anyway. The whole effort is to dispirit you.”
Sure Rush...I'm sure that's it.
2:34 PM Mr. Blue
2 minutes of dead air is the most factual broadcasting Limbaugh's listeners have heard in decades.
2:34 PM Mr. Silver
One point to Mr. Blue.
2:35 PM Mr. Blue
I listened to his show a lot.
Usually because I felt nervous that I was missing something on the Right.
By listening to him, Hannity, or that guy/lady combo, it would just reinforce that, no, I’m not missing anything. It's all a lot of nonsense.
2:37 PM Mr. Silver
Nod. I'll put it on the car radio for a while sometimes, just to hear what they either believe or are just feeding to their sheep.
2:37 PM Mr. Blue
I think in Limbaugh and Hannity's cases, they're actually smart guys. But I think they're playing characters. It's a business. They're not as dumb as they end up coming off.
2:38 PM Mr. Silver
I agree, actually. It would never get anywhere but I'd considered calling Hannity to confront him with his obvious intelligence versus his complete irresponsibility, and ask if can't he find anything worthwhile to do.
2:38 PM Mr. Blue
If they went on air and said "Hey, let's hold our horses people...everyone calm down and think our problems through rationally", people would tune out. That's not what the listeners want to hear
2:42 PM Mr. Blue
2:42 PM Mr. Silver
I know of it...did they get another drop recently?
2:42 PM Mr. Blue
I'm not sure.
2:42 PM Mr. Silver
(reads)
2:42 PM Mr. Blue
I remember reading a story in Mental Floss about the guy that started one of these. He ended up dying before the first drop.
2:43 PM Mr. Silver
Oh yeah...2000. I think that's more recent than the last reference I read. hehe
2:50 PM Mr. Silver
One should be coming up due, based on this
2:50 PM Mr. Blue
I'm gonna make one of these. I just need some pitch.
3:02 PM Mr. Silver
They should be careful messing with their formulas...they apparently haven't learned the lessons of New Coke, Coke II and Crystal Pepsi, I guess.
3:03 PM Mr. Blue
“The ABA added that a person would need to drink massive amounts of cola to reach a risk level similar to the dosing in mice — 2,900 cans of cola every day for 70 years — upon which California based its decision.”
Americans you have your mission, now get to it.
3:04 PM Mr. Silver
"Meanwhile an ABBA tribute band's jingle 'Take A Chance, Pep-si' is a big hit."
3:04 PM Mr. Blue
How’s that Dr Pepper 10 doing?
3:05 PM Mr. Silver
Dr. Pepper 10 is not doing well in the Mr. Silver demographic. I had to look it up.
3:05 PM Mr. Blue
New Dr. Pepper 10: It's not for women!*
*Dr. Pepper 10 causes massive cervical bleeding.
*Dr. Pepper 10 causes massive cervical bleeding.
3:05 PM Mr. Gray
Its run needs to end with a zombie apocalypse.
LOL
3:10 PM Mr. Silver
"U.S. Surgeon General warns that Dr. Pepper 10 may cause harm to women on contact."
3:20 PM Mr. Silver
(sings) “If you change your mind, I’m the first in line, honey I’m still free, take a chance Pep-si!
I'm going to have ABBA earworms all weekend now.
3:20 PM Mr. Gray
I already do thanks to you!!
3:26 PM Mr. Silver
hehe
Swedish earworms are the most insidious.
