Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.
Mein Blogovault: Make "the Blog that No One Reads" one of your daily reads.
The Virginian: I know this post will offend some people, but the author makes some good points.
Poetic Justice: Cletus! Ah gots a laiv one fer yew...
Lady bartender over in the UK Bagnolo, Italy is being a floozie. On purpose. And I mean, by this, a complete floozie. Big ol’ patches of skin left bare by her incomplete attire, not even bothering with the old worn-out routine of “What, this old thing, just something I threw on” — wallowing in the extra attention and the extra business.
Butterface female mayor with the upside-down Rosie O’Donnell smile (what is it with that look??) is fit to be tied, and is first among the married females putting their husbands on probation from ever stepping foot inside that bar. Oh sweetie, I’ll bet you’re just a joy at parties. You forgot the now-traditional hyphenated name, though.
It is so entertaining…
Now women in the small northern Italian town of Bagnolo Mella have declared Le Cafe out of bounds to their menfolk – and 34-year-old Miss Maggi has become a national celebrity.
Yesterday she was a guest on the Italian equivalent of This Morning and said: ‘I don’t see what the problem is – it’s just a bit of harmless fun.
‘If the guys come here what can I do?
‘I know I have upset the women but that’s not my problem.
‘It’s not my fault if guys want to come and have a drink in my bar.’
:
Several wives from the town have been on TV to complain. One said: ‘It is outrageous and should not be allowed.‘This town is quiet and respectable. Now we are known across the whole country because of the little amount of clothing this barmaid is wearing to serve drinks.
‘The women in town are not very happy and we have complained to the council.’
The floozie is right, of course. She knows she’s upset the wives. And it is not her problem.
Not sure what to make of these wives “banning” their husbands from going to the bar. My lady and I had a talk about what would happen if one of us were to “ban” the other from going someplace…eh…dunno. Neither one of us was able to relate to it much. Like uh, whatever. Even the classic foot-stomping how-dare-you drama is beyond us. Nice brain-fart, cupcake…don’t wait up. But neither one of us would “ban,” so it wasn’t much even by way of hypothetical exercise…
I see there are some battleaxes stuck in equal-opportunity mode, wondering what the dudes would say if the wives found an equal-and-opposite place where the sexy male bartenders showed off their wares. Answer: Dudes don’t care…and it isn’t an “if”…WTF do you think Twilight movies are all about. Somewhere, the notion seems to have become popular that it’s a marital obligation for each husband to make each wife feel like she’s the sexiest Venus who ever stepped foot on the globe, ever, twenty-four hours a day. That’s nuts…
Which brings me to the latest recipient of the Best Sentence I’ve Heard Or Read Lately (BSIHORL) award…Chris in NYC 2/23/12 6:56:
First off, any man that allows his wife to ‘ban’ him from going to a bar of his choice needs to go to the doctor and have his balls reattached. Secondly, any wife that feels threatened by this needs to spend a little more time off the sofa and more in the gym.
Precisely.
