So now I'm just totally into Breaking Bad (again for like the 6th time) and the moral dilemma that Walter White faces as to whether or not he's going to kill the drug dealer he has captive in the basement, is just fascinating. He makes him a sandwich and trims the crust off for him, and then brings it to him while the guy is chained up in the basement. It's one of the most amazing dilemma's that a lead character has ever had to face, especially so early on in a series, and it sets the hook and sets the stage for the rest of the series. <br /><br />I so totally love BB. It just rocks and hooks me every time. <br /><br />I've got a few cool parties I can go to tonight, but I'm seriously considering being chillax at my crib. <br /><br />Millennial Menoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-15108376384318036362017-12-31T15:17:56.253-05:002017-12-31T15:17:56.253-05:00WOW!

Work with m...Rump, I want to file an FTC complaint. Work with me here. We have great legal minds. <br />Issue: False Advertising. Subject: YOUR Miami Dolphins. <br /><br />This advertising song is demonstrably false, fake and misleading. Let's work though it. <br /><br />1 "Miami Has the Dolphins." Analysis- demonstrably true<br />2. "The Greatest football team." Analysis- even when considering their history, they are not the greatest football teams. Other teams, Cowboys, Steelers, Pats, have more SB wins and more overall wins. <br />3. "They take the ball from goal to goal like no one's ever seen." Analysis- they do not score a lot. Unless the sentence can be read to mean that since they don't score, their taking the ball like no one's ever seen means no one sees them score, which I don't think is their intent, the verse is demonstrably false. Many more teams this year have scored more than the Dolphins. <br /><br />4. "They're in the air, they're on the ground, they're always in control" Analysis- It is true the team throws and runs the ball. But it is false to proclaim they are always in control. More often than not, they are not scoring or getting a first down. They are more not in control then in control. Demonstrably false. <br /><br />5. "And when you say Miami, you're talking super bowl." This is mostly false. It's true Miami has won two super bowls and played in another two. But mostly when you say Miami, you're saying they are NOT going to the super bowl. They were eliminated and not really in the race early on. So this statement, in the context of claiming that when people talk about the Dolphins, they are talking about their super bowl chances, is demonstrably false. <br /><br />So overall, the only thing that is true in this entire song, is "Miami has the Dolphins" four silly words. <br /><br />I think we have a lawsuit here Rumpolium. What say you?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-87273367389277572272017-12-31T13:15:55.418-05:002017-12-31T13:15:55.418-05:00Yeah, I don't disagree she touted her gender w...Yeah, I don't disagree she touted her gender with the "let the girl blog" stuff. But I think her plan was to approach this as a young, female blogger, and that as such she represented a new perspective. I don't think that was inappropriate considering myself and the Captain are both male, and are much older. I think if she was African American or Hispanic or Asian, she could also use that to say she wanted to give a different perspective than the white males who blog here. <br />I think when a man blogs, nobody asks how big our genitals are, but I have dozens and dozens of comments I haven't posted where people are asking how big MM's breasts are and if she will email them a naked picture. She's forwarded me some very inappropriate emails that do everything from calling her horrible names, to threatening her with violence. <br /><br />My criteria for selecting her was very simply, her writing, not her age, not her gender. She's a good writer, so she gets a chance. As I have said before, there have been accomplished lawyers who wanted to blog who were just awful writers, and I pulled the plug. <br /><br />If MM wants to make her gender part of her identity, that is her call. But responses- like yours in which you mention what she is doing, are fine, Comments that are crude, rude, threatening, and demeaning cannot be accepted. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /> Rumpolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08380575650255695462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-84325515138678366552017-12-31T12:31:20.511-05:002017-12-31T12:31:20.511-05:00Rump: so what are your views on MM injecting her g...Rump: so what are your views on MM injecting her gender into almost every post/comment, as if it's a qualification? <br /><br />You say she hasn't done anything wrong or broken any rules.

Is that the same standard you would judge a male contributor?<br /><br />Seems like you are overcorrecting so you can call yourself pro-woman (or pro-girl if you used MM's words). <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-30446936672901357842017-12-31T11:12:56.210-05:002017-12-31T11:12:56.210-05:00Planning a trip to Normandy.

And here is why- I get dozens of "locker room" comments about MM that I do not post- speculating on her looks, body, sexuality, etc., and surprisingly, I've never received one, NOT ONE, about the Captain, wondering how he looks, whether he is gay, what kind of sexual positions he likes. And I guess that is the rub for the end of 2017- women are treated different, and on an underlying basis their sexuality enters the discussion while a Man's sexuality almost never does. <br /><br />About two years ago I routinely posted comments, supposedly from men, talking about their sexual activities. Some of them mentioned the enjoyment of a younger woman. I fully and completely admit I saw nothing wrong in that. I didn't see much right in it, but it didn't bother me. I got an email from a Judge who had daughters that chastised me, and opened my eyes. I got some other emails from women who also talked about how insulting those comments were. They were right and I was wrong-wrong in the sense of being blind. I didn't support those comments, but I didn't see the harm, and that in and of itself, was a form of sexism that was inappropriate. <br /><br />Since then I have not posted those comments, that still arrive, but with less frequency, and the matter was closed until I allowed a young lawyer, who happens to be a woman, access to the front page. And from this point forward, people can criticize her writing style, her ideas, her "Millennial" attributes of being admittedly self absorbed (see her fascinating comment above) but not her sex, or her sexuality. Period. <br />Happy New Year. <br />HR Rumpolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08380575650255695462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-62556969954818589332017-12-31T10:42:53.180-05:002017-12-31T10:42:53.180-05:00I think the outrage against MM ia due in part to t...I think the outrage against MM ia due in part to the misogyny that festers in the 'justice' building and, relatedly, in the blog comments. I commend Rumpole for his growing sensitivity to the problem, in his own posts, in his role as comments curator, and in his defense of MM. I commend MM for withstanding the slings and arrows of outrageous misogyny.<br /><br />Not only do your commenters skew male, they skew old. Many of us have seen our best lawyering days in our rear-view mirrors. We have had friends die, more of them each year, and our own health scares. I envy MM her youth, her energy, her confidence, her future.
