Just *this* election?

Ogami Itto and Daigoro is the right answer.

I worked in a Japanese 7-11, a liquor store, and concessions at a baseball stadium (family-owned businesses). And it was just a job, and my fellow co-workers treated it like just another job. Not all that different than North America.

is it the mountain of coke on a silver platter? Yeah, it's probably the mountain of coke on a silver platter.

The International Crimes Court, like the UN and NATO is an extension of US foreign policy. Only the enemies of the West end up in the Hague. Cheney or Kissinger have nothing to fear

Hot W33ls: Rise of the Dinky Toys

A heartfelt tale in which the Daddy Mack and the Mack Daddy learn how everyone's prejudices are interconnected, and that racism is bad. Directed by Paul Haggis.

Bring Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson back in for some re-shoots, whiping each other with orange plastic track pieces, and you might just have something.

Progressing slowly, but progressing. One foot in front of the other, and slowly we will get there. The good (and perhaps bad at the same time) thing is, the goal is mostly in my control. Good because, its achievable, but I really really need to motivate myself and do a lot of work, and most of the time, I'm just too…

My fun go-to is 1972's Horror Express

There was a lot of back yard breeding going on in Toronto a while back before Ontario's ban that in part lead to the ban. Inbred dogs in poor conditions, by people who don't know how to handle or raise dogs.

I'm the opposite. Ibuprofen works, aspirin does nothing. I can pop T-3s with Codeine like a kid digging into their loot bag on Halloween and feel absolutely nothing.

On the other hand, both parties are getting what they want, and know what's up, it's all discussed and negotiated beforehand, so it seems honest to me at least. If they're both getting what they want from each other (and everyone is a consenting adult, of course), is it still sad?

Stupid dune buggies… knowing McQueen I am sure he just insisted there be a bunch of scenes where he gets to show off, drive around and shit.

I loved it. Oldman did George Smiley better than Guinness did.

Dunaway's Chess-seduction scene is better than a naked Russo. Where the original suffers are those middle parts where it feels like its just Steve McQueen Lifestyle Porn, and he's ripping around in a dune buggy.

I know you live(ed?) in India, I've lived in Asia myself, mostly Japan (wife is Japanese national, son is mixed). Completely different view on race/class there, mostly due to religious differences between the Abrahamic and Dharmic systems.

Are you talking in the United States, or Globally? I think we run the risk of applying an inward focused solely western view to the rest of the world's problems, where often this view is not going to apply. America has some unique racial issues and perspectives, for instance, that in my experience, large parts of the…
