Who are these people? Mr. Hurst should consider the broader use of topic sentences and insist on coherence in his prose. Even when launching fact free attacks on this administration we must give a serious nod to the rules of writing we all learned in fourth grade. His cachet as a gay man is insufficient to make us overlook his shortcomings as a writer.

May they eat nothing but borscht and potatoes for the rest of their lives, and drink nothing but puddle water and the worst vodka you can wring out of a sock.

Putin and his Mafia cronies basically stole Russia's economy from the Russian People. Its amazing what you can buy with a whole stolen country's economy. Even a third rate one.

He's a libertarian douche who thinks Russia is a paradise for mediocre white dudes like him? In Malcolm Nance's book he talks about how recruiters heavily use flattery on their marks. And Snowden clearly thinks highly of himself.

Putin is a strongman who keeps women, gays, and journalists in their place.

Unless he comes from Major money, he is dirty as hell, and not in a sexually positive fashion.

Yeah, I've been there it is next to the famous beaches, Ipanema and Cococabana.

As I've always told 'em... the drunker you get, the better I sound!

Rickenbackers are still made in the USA, and have a 1 1/2 year backlog of orders they need to fill. Mostly because they are sticklers for quality control (except for those damn black finish "R" tailpieces!) so they take their time, build what they can, and still make a fine quality instrument.

If Gibson would just slow down their assembly line to cut back on production and allow more stringent quality control, they wouldn't have to deny customers' complaints in such an asinine form. Well, that, and stop trying to sell bullshit like Les Pauls with day-glo finishes like it's still 1984.

(Full disclosure: I own two Gibsons [a 1971 SG Standard and a 1997 BluesHawk), a Ric 360-12, and several MIM Fenders. Love 'em all! Who says I have a problem? YOU have a problem!)

Somewhere, maybe I could find it, I have a salad shooter.

Nor can we count on the Hollywood ending!

That the Malaysia prime minister and wife can be taken down for massive corruption, gives us hope that the same can happen here.

I surrender. So does France.

Well, I used to be a housepainter, so I have caulk guns, and my neighbors have glue guns and maybe a salad shooter.
