Due to popular demand, I have decided to post another comment.

You keep repeating the theme that we all need to come together and that Obama is just the man to do it, like JFK. We need a leader with charisma.

What, are you shitting me? Saying that we are all in this together and that we should take more pride in America and all get along and be one big happy family is disturbingly reminiscent of National Socialism. No, we will all get along much better when Corporate America gives way to family businesses and when we can all earn a decent wage so that we can afford to buy things that are made in our very own country.

You have bought into the whole Obominable snow job and it's really disgusting. No, we don't need a leader who can silver-tongue us into unity; we need a leader who has genuine, practical ideas for how we can turn around the mess we are in and who doesn't accept money from lobbyists. Bill Hicks would have seen this in an instant; why can't you?

To say that you won't back a candidate simply because he has a poor chance of winning is merely a cop-out.

And if you truly believe in the "come together" theme, why are you still bashing Republicans? I mean, by all means bash them, they are mostly idiots, and America would be much better off without them and their twisted use of the English language, but then don't preach to us that we need to be one big happy family.

Oh, and for the record, I am still single.

HOLY COW! (no pun intended)
That is one big dog. Glad to see he's doing OK.
I hope you win big in the poker games because your pet food bill must be enormous.
I don't think you'll have too many problems with miscreants hopping your fence/wall. If I walk up to a 6 foot cinder block wall and there's STILL a dog looking over it? Uh...I don't think so. Screw barking.
In some ways, a dog that size is better than a gun.
A friend of mine had a Rottweiler he called "D" a few years back and I asked him why he called a male dog "Dee".
He said "It's not "Dee" It's "D". His AKC name is Fred D. Terrent. He gets pissed if I call him Fred so I call him D."

OK..."D" it is.

no, they are better than a gun! you have to be home to use the gun. maverick is on duty 24/7.

no, he is not rescued, the other NINE dogs i have had in the last decade or so were.

if you look at the cover of DOG STORIES, you see one of my previous great danes and he was taller than me as well. that is why they have to be well trained because neither i nor you can physically hold that dog.


yes, i will be doing san antonio. it is one of the gigs i will keep regardless because i have been working there since it opened and i enjoy the people there.


and last for ibeanidiot, you don't know what bill hicks would think so keep his name out of this. i knew him and you didn't. last we heard from you i was "right wing", you weren't going to vote but instead stay home and listen to george carlin, were voting for ron paul and last, but certainly not least, obama was right wing as well. as rebuttal may i point out the following: obama doesn't take money from lobbyists, obama was rated the "most liberal" senator, ron paul would overturn roe v wade and then when he was on a roll, do away with the department of education, opt young people out of social security, change the constitution and build a wall. (he will greatly appreciate your vote.) and psssst, i am not anywhere close to "right wing" as anyone who has read my blogs can attest. (i have lost gigs because i am too far to the left.)

so, welcome back. you are always good for a laugh.

Wow. Look at that dog! He's fucking huge!

By the way, I voted for Barrack for you today in the primaries here in Utah. Well, I voted for me, but it was you who got me to decide between him and Hillary.

I like him. Good stuff Ron.

Rock n roll
