Study: Americans Enjoy Watching TV, Eating News in Brief • Science & Technology • ISSUE 49•35 • Aug 26, 2013 WASHINGTON—According to a new study published Monday by the Pew Research Center, Americans enjoy watching television and eating. “Our research indicates that residents of the United States take great pleasure in watching television, often for many hours at once, and enjoy eating food in large quantities, preferably several or more times per day,” lead author Dr. Richard Cowell said of the study, which follows an earlier report that concluded the nation greatly prefers sitting to standing. “Our findings also suggest Americans enjoy watching television and eating at the same time.” According to the study, Americans do not enjoy being hungry or having no TV. http://www.theonion.com/articles/study-americans-enjoy-watching-tv-eating,33630/

It is so rare with that strip!

Agree. Nearly fell out of my chair that he finally drew a funny one.

Good Christ. Google for images of Baphomet.

A friend of mine ran across Ricky out in public, and he kindly posed for a snapshot of the 2 of them. Off stage and out of makeup, La Martin, like many, looked surprisingly unchiseled, round and shapeless -- face and body also, what you could see of it.

Have heard the same thing about La Sondheim but don't know anybody alas with firsthand knowledge.

But your concept of Poland not being Brazil is so subtle and elusive. I just can't connect the...

Why does everything sound to me like the title of a lost Sondheim masterpiece this morning?

Exactly. Trying to act as bad-ass as Lil Twist and the other hangers-on he has adopted as his peer group.

My post was designed to test strength of character of course. I will leave it to you to grade your response.

I don't think I had better say anything here.

Car?! He couldn't even be troubled to take care of his pet monkey.

Agree. In fact in MA and NC where I have voted by this mechanism, in practice it appears to work more or less as you say. I mark my paper ballot, then in MA place it in a cover sheet for privacy, hand it to the election official, then watch her feed it into the machine reader, which reads it and stores the hardcopy. In NC I mark the ballot, then feed it into the reader myself. In both cases I know that physical ballot is in there, in a stack in the same order in which my vote was tallied electronically. The Diebold-type technology ought to be outlawed at the federal level, if that is legally possible.

Kinsey probably has a scale for it.

Careful! You know hitoall channels Fay Wray every time he imagines sex...

Agree with all. Affleck to me has ever had all the interest of a walking talking bowl of cream of wheat. This is pretty funny, and accurate: Has Ben Affleck been sent in to kill off Batman? http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/aug/23/ben-affleck-kill-batman-superheroes
