well, that has to be the most hilarious post i've read in quite some time. i'll bet your dad can beat up Chris' dad too, Huh?

i certainly feel no empathy for her. i do pity her. she was a great artist, but willingly used her art to further Nazi-ism. as she stated in her memoirs, she was captivated by Hitler, as were millions of other people. Denial is not just a river in Egypt.

i love to see all of the BMW's and Mercedes' in the parking lot at the Temple. short memories.

to bad Hank the Angry Drunken Dwarf is dead.

maybe i'm getting old, but i kinda felt sorry for her. before i go any further let me preface with this: i am an American born Jew. my grandparents escaped eastern Europe just before WW1 and i lost some family to Communists, and Nazis. my father and both grandfathers fought in Europe and the Pacific during WW2. i think that she, like most other Germans and many other people were captivated by Hitler's speeches. remember, Post WW1 Germany was a shambles. high unemplyment, horrible economy. Hitler came along and promised them the world. he stirred in them a national spirit that they had lost. he blamed their woes on the Jews, and that was that. the German people needed a scapegoat, and Hitler's anti-Semitism fit right in. i don't know if she knew of the death camps. she claimed she didn't. i've seen 2 of her films, Triumph Of The Will and Olympia. both are amazing movies. i've also seen the documentary about her: The Wonderful, Horrible Life of Leni Reifenstahl. that too was a great movie. i'm not apologizing for her or anyone involved with any form of anti-Semitism. i think she was a great artist, who didn't see (or chose not to see, as many Germans did) the atrocities that were happening right in front of her. history, for now, will refer to her as Hitler's Movie Maker. i think that is punishment enough. well, that plus an eternity in hell.

the amnesty looks like a wolf in sheeps clothing. not that i would ever do any illegal activity, but if i did, i'd delete all my files in my shared folder, traffic, and search history. why hasn't the movie industry done anything? i heard about people downloading movies from KaZaA.

Mazel Tov, and many years of health and happiness.

because of him i learned to appreciate sandwiches. FWIW-i was made to understand that he developed Mesothelioma. if that is indeed true, it wasn't smoking that killed him, it was repeated exposure to asbestos 20+years ago.

ROTFLMFAO

don't tailgate...i had Curry for lunch.

Tony Williams=i'm buying.

Paul Simon was the host, when he brought out George Harrison for a couple of songs. i remember "Here Comes The Sun", can't remember the 2nd tune. IMO it's be worth the price.

i signed up for the 3 day free trial. they have a hugh selection. $9.95 per month with unlimited downloads. if you want to burn CDs, there is a fee (less than a buck) but you can buy burn credits. the more you buy the cheaper each burn becomes. i canceled my membership during the free trial.

i'm waiting for the Michael Bolton/Kenny G., duets album.

i thought he was great in John Wayne's last flick, "The Shootist".

i got booted from E-Music. they thought i was doing something illegal. i just downloaded a bunch of stuff. didn't do anything illegal, and had several e-mail chats with them. still got thrown off tho. got an offer to "join" in today's e-mail.

i just finished Jon Krakauer's "Into the Wild" and "Into Thin Air". i would never mountain climb, but i love to read about it. Into Thin Air, is the most amazing adventure story i've ever read, bar none.

Berigan-i've been away for a while, so i apologize for the late post. i've been an RN for 20 plus years, and have dealt with cancer patients extensively. one thing i've learned is that someone in your family needs to take the bull by the horns and be very proactive regarding getting your mother treatment. if theings are taking to long (tests doctor appts) call the insurance company and complain. the squeeky wheel gets the grease. be polite, but firm. i if i can answer any questions for you, feel free to PM me.

there's a fine line between Kitschy and tacky. Ms.Spears has crossed that line.
