First ones that came to mine (after Art Vandelay) were Rusty Shackleford from King of the Hill and Vic Vinegar from Always Sunny.

And if you, like I do, always get him mixed up with Sydney Pollack, then he has even more good movies.

prostitutes.  the answer is prostitutes.

During my days of drunken bro-dom, my catchphrase was "it's the freakin weekend baby I'm bout to have me some fun".  But Ignition (Remix) was and is a great song, and there was no Facebook back then.

Dog Day Afternoon gets my vote for the best Pacino performance.  I shudder to think of how he would play this role today.  I imagine a lot of shouting and histrionics.

"Manic Cop" would be a great movie.  Terrifying scenes of the officer charging up his credit card on gifts for the people he arrests and staying up all night building elaborate tinfoil hats.

He's pretty great in Donnie Brasco.

A state's failure to ratify an amendment doesn't have any effect on whether or not that amendment is effective in that state.  Prohibition was repealed and slavery was abolished without Mississippi.  Mississippi could have their own in state prohibition though.

The state was actually majority black until WWII, and still has the largest black population by percentage.  That's why the Jim Crow power structure had to work so hard to maintain itself

I think a generation of tween goth girls just met their cartoon crush.

Also a good percentage of the best blues artists.  Son House, Charley Patton, Robert Johnson, Skip James, Big Bill Broonzy, Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf, John Lee Hooker, Sonny Boy Williamson, Albert and BB King, Elmore James.  The list goes on and on.

What legal effect would it have?  It only deals with federal laws concerning federal offices.

Was it my imagination, or did Luke Wilson lose a few pounds.  He doesn't look quite as doughy as he did last season.

The Sweet Smell of Success

Adam was driving me nuts with the dog.  I have a naturally aggressive dog and I've worked really hard to train it not to pull, growl and bark at other dogs.  Then we're on a walk and a dog comes up pulling on a long leash and growling like that and all of that training goes out the window.  Get your damn dog under

I looked at that (awful) photo and said to myself "when did Kristen Wiig get nominated for an oscar?"  Is it possible that she and Amy Adams are secretly the same person?

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close

Rhonda Rousey is also notable for getting naked, although to much more approval I imagine.

I still drink to pathetic excess to spite Betty Ford.

Food poisoning can last a long time, but on the other hand it usually takes a couple of hours to set in.
