I thought you were a touchy-feely everyone gets a fair share of pie socialist?

I'm a Red Tory Monarchist who believes very strongly in the tradition and philosophy of 'noblesse oblige'... which for some bizarre reasons the Libertarians and Republicans interpret as "socialism".

I'm not being disrespectful in any way, but this would be a damn good name for a beer.

Hmmm it would - an Amber/Brown Ale or an Old Ale perhaps?

Or maybe something cheap and slutty like the beast or natty ice.

I am reminded of a favorite beer among some people in my area... Polygamy Porter!

I found a pic of the label:

ETA: I do realize the irony of my post, since I've been blabbing on here about empathy and respect for other religions... but I guess polygamy doesn't have to mean it in a religious way...

Oh man - I am going to go to the local house of 1000000 beers and see if they have that.

Oh, see, now you've done it. That's sure to send some people into a tizzy.

And I can't wait! :) http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/6148/popcorn4jj.gif

Did you know the Bible has pocket parts?

The Book of Mormon...

That was a joke I knew the GC Legal Eagles would appreciate. Of course one of my friends said the New Testament was the pocket part for the Torah, so perhaps the Bible is annotated with pocket parts and a Citator.

I'll be sure to send you copies of the Inter Alia's new LAWLCats ;)

Thread Summary by Macallan:

1. Skylark hates Christmas? Would probably tell me "Happy Holidays" if we met......Macallan would give limp, disinterested handshake and vomit in mouth. Macallan would then give out a sticker saying "It's OK, you can tell me Merry Christmas!!!"

2. Don't take law classes from Jewish law professors. They will nickel and dime your opportunities for meeting times (wait a second...), especially during religious holidays.

3. RACooper is a feisty, pissed off canadian (oops) who probably likes the sound of his own voice......and moose, because he is a canadian (oops) and canada (oops) has lots of moose. RA also disapproves of non-capitalization of words. RA also knows much about the founding of America.

4. RACooper is a Red Tory Monarchist (i.e Socialist, oops, haha). We aren't sure what it means to be a R.T.M., but it sounds like a beer to us American beer drinkers. Be careful though, it might taste like natty ice and sluttiness and......MOOSE...haha, I'm kidding..........but really, it might. If you don't like it, try a Polygamy Porter.

5. RACooper also hates the WWE and it's values. He would gladly talk shit to WWE wrestlers. Seeing RA hit in the face with a chair by the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase after said shit talking would probably unite the earth in harmony, align the planets, and make me laugh for days. I don't even like wrastlin'.

6. Some tree in Wisconsin is called the "Holiday Tree". That's pretty gay. That about sums it up. Good job wisconsin (oops).

GeekyPenguin 01-03-2008 03:06 PM

Oh, macallan, I think we can make it simpler than that.

1) Conservatives believe in states rights and letting each state decide what to do. (Except for Bush, but that's a whole nother thread.)
2) Wisconsin, as a state, decides to have a holiday tree instead of a Christmas tree.
3) People who don't live in Wisconsin get upset over something happening in a state where they don't reside.
4) Wisconsin apparently has a sexuality. Who knew?

I want to know what state Wisconsin is being gay with. It couldn't be Minnesota or Michigan or Illinois because we hate their football teams (although we could pull a Larry Craig and be self-hating) and we couldn't be gay with Iowa because that obviously a girl state. I think maybe if you turned Massachusetts around the Cape could nestle into Green Bay.
