THE MADER EMPIRE

Date: Aug 24, 2004

Not meaning to flame you, Doubtful, but when did "we" have any power? If I had some power, SFT would be back in the Polymer Palace driving all the admin. assistants crazy in his new "wing" of the Palace. And Noel Polk would be prez of USM (at least for a very crucial 15 mins.!).

May-der. Or from Merriam-Webster:

Syc"o*phant, n. [L. sycophanta a slanderer, deceiver, parasite].

Darth is better looking

Excuse me, but I think this is silly. Besides the bare assertion, what evidence does anyone have that LSM is "pulling the strings?" I am no fan of hers, or anyone else associated with this administration, but it seems to me that "we" cede a certain power to her when we just assume she has it.

How peculiar it would seem if someone were to just assert that Bud Kirkpatrick (the former head of PR) was the real power behind Horace Fleming or Aubrey Lucas. Of course, that is not likely to happen because that would not fit stereotypes about young attractive women and fat unattractive older men. And I am really afraid that is a strong element of these attacks based on appearance and warnings of "I told you so."

It is one thing to criticize what someone says. It is an entirely different matter to discuss her appearance. Even in jest.

Okay, ram, I take it back. Darth is not better looking. I will go sit in my time-out for a while.

Date: Aug 24, 2004

Okay. And I will get down off my high horse. Maybe if I wasn't so ugly myself, I wouldn't worry about such.

But you're beautiful on the inside!

With apologies to Bob DiscomBOBulated Dylan:

It's now Christina's turn to turn a word or two:

Oh ram,

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring you down
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring you down
So don't you bring me down today...

Ha. Touche'. Love it.

But I only have the vaguest notion who Christina is; a Dylan quote would work much better for me. It'd have to be an old Dylan quote, at that.

PS--On the old Fire Shelby board, she was often referred to as Darth Mader.

Just providing some "institutional memory."

Wonderful opportunity for quotes today: When Abraham Lincoln was accused of being two-faced: "If I were two-faced, do you think I'd be wearing this one?"
