Chimps are people too

At least that's what I'm planning to tell the Austrian Supreme Court when I file an amicus brief in AAAF v. Austria.

Are you telling me this isn't a person?

It's an adorable little cowboy! Of course it's a person.

Sure, I may be a tax lawyer instead of a real lawyer, but even the tax code provides a broad interpretation of the term "person". Section 7701(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code states that "the term 'person' shall be construed to mean and include an individual, a trust, estate, partnership, association, company or corporation."

If this

is a person, then this

sure as hell is.

Change of plans

Looks like I'm heading to Atlanta this weekend.

True Story

Blue Oyster Cult was my favorite band in high school. The first concert I ever attended was BOC/Ratt at Poplar Creek in the summer of 1984. I just now discovered the horribleness/awesomeness of this video. The facial hair alone makes it. I hope you enjoy.

Believe it or not

Ben Stiller used to be funny once upon a time. His show certainly had its moments.

If the UN wants to get serious about the world's hunger problems

they need to get Ronnie James Dio on the horn STAT!

I think we can all agree that the efforts of Live Aid, USA for Africa, etc., while undertaken with the best of intentions, generally produced a lackluster melange of rotting aid packages and misappropriated funding -- with one glaring exception:

HEAR 'N AID

Ronnie James got it right: Riffs = Chomp

You can't just sing a few notes and expect it to translate to food on a plate. It takes arpeggios. It takes ginormous hair. It takes copious amounts of leather and/or spandex. Dammit, it takes YNGWIE and the NUGE.

Just a heads-up: at approximately the 3:30 mark, most people will suddenly hear white noise. Do not be alarmed, as this is simply a result of your body's natural defense mechanisms kicking in and protecting you against excess riffage. Some people have a greater tolerance - recent clinical studies have shown that residents of Tinley Park, IL, for example, can typically hear the entire guitar solo through the Buck Dharma riff - but on average, most people find the riff-trading sequence between George Lynch and Neal Schon to be too much to handle and their ears fade out accordingly.

What American advertising needs:

More evil chickens and meat grinders.

I, for one, welcome the Fat Elvis phase of Britney's career.

All she needs are some sideburns and a repertoire of karate chops and kicks and such.

Or she could just use her umbrella, I suppose.

OUR CONCERN OF CIRCUMSTANCES

There are some concern about how we do our concerns of circumstances.

TOOLS TO ADMINISTER THE GOVERNMENT

There is some concern about the tools to administer the United States Government and tools to regulate the government. A person manipulated by another for his own ends. When used figuatively of human agency, tool is generally used to in a comtemptuous sense. Contemptuous is manifesting or expressing contempt or disdain; scornful. Contempt is willful disobedience to or open disrespect for the rules or orders of a court or legislative body.

GOVERNMENT LEGISLATURE LAW MAKING DEVELOPMENT AND HOW IT IS OBEYED TO REGULATE MADE LAW

There is some concern about domestic violence in the work place and from the work place to families.

PUBLIC OWNERSHIP

Public ownership (also called government ownership or state ownership) is government ownership of any asset, industry, or corporation at any level, national, regional or local (municipal). The process of bringing an asset into public ownership is called Nationalization or Municipalization. A government owned corporation (sometimes state-owned enterprise, SOE) may resemble a not-for-profit corporation as it may not be required to generate a profit; although governments may also use profitable entities they own to support the general budget. SOE’s may or may not be expected to operate in a broadly commercial manner and may or may not have to face competitive tendering. The creation of a government-owned corporation (corporatization) from other forms of government ownership may be a precursor to privatization. Definition taken from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Lee Mercer, huh? Why should I vote for him?

Once, I am elected to the office of President of the United States of America the thing I am going to do for the people is regulate the office of the President of the United States of America right and not wrong.
