It looks like Senator Inhofe has come very close to losing the global warming debate for the global warming? what global warming? side.
Indeed, Inhofe insists that he feels even stronger about taking on what he sees as the current hysteria about global warming than he did several years ago when he first uttered that now-famous hoax statement.
In an interview, he heaped criticism on what he saw as the strategy used by those on the other side of the debate and offered a historical comparison.
"It kind of reminds . . . I could use the Third Reich, the big lie," Inhofe said.
"You say something over and over and over and over again, and people will believe it, and that's their strategy."

Close because it's more of a technique comparison than a direct Nazi comparison, but he'd better be careful.
And even then. I just got my son's insurance card in the mail, naming him as "Peter Edward ..." Actually his name is "Peter Hawkins ..." I must have been exceptionally tired the day I talked to the insurance company. And don't I know this will frell up all the paperwork...
I always figure all names are prospective, until the child has been born, and is named.

I think the Air head's flavor is called "White mystery" because you can't tell the flavor until you eat it. Other candies (and maybe Kool Aid) have used that gimmick before.
Doc Holliday's real name was John Henry.
John Henry isn't a bad name but Doc Holliday is a lot cooler.
But John Henry died with a hammer in his hand.
You could name a son John Holliday and call him Doc. Didn't one of the Buffistas have a friend who named their child Huckleberry for the line in Tombstone?
You could go fictional

The BF and I have taken to barking out "Swengin" Wu-style at each other at odd moments. We both find this way more amusing than it has any right to be.
Does anyone here ever make their own sangria?
If so, what do you put in it. I've been wanting some, and have googled some recipes, but I trust the Buffista hive-palate, more.
The name discussion reminds me, does anyone remember and have the link for the thing where you can enter a name, and then it shows you on a graph the name's popularity throughout the years? I thought I bookmarked it but apparently not.
