"Do not approach the natives of Papua-New Guinea."
The later edition added "Unless you approach palms up with cold hard cash. Regardless... do not poke, tickle, or zerbert the natives of Papua-New Guinea"
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Why should have the United States entered WWII (or WWI for that matter) earlier than they did?
With or without the benefit of hindsight?

P.S. It's like ABC is advertising directly to me. How do they know that I love "Dancing with the Stars" with all my heart? That I love seeing shots of Peter Facinelli in the audience? I mean, he was in "Fastlane!" And they have the Bachelor and Chris Harrison sitting together! OMG! If we still got to work on "The Bachelor," I would totally bet on Chris. And now they are advertising for the movie I most want to see this fall, "Enchanted!"
I am so enjoying my evening right now. None of my previous comments were even a little bit ironic, and I don't even care.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Have you fed her lemons yet, Hec?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I'm not sure that Should is a logical question. It is interesting to ask why and to talk about how we talk about WWII. and it is even more interesting to talk about the change ( maybe even evolution ) of our isolationist policy to world policeman

There seems to be a pouplar notion that the US dragged its heels getting into the world wars.

I don't think so, though Emmett liked lemons and limes when he was that age.
She does like hummus and feta. I'm not sure what a one year old's taste buds are like, but I suspect they're not really like a four or five year olds.

Well, I do think we should've taken some notion from WWI that German military aggression was a Bad Thing. Though I suppose the lesson we thought we learned from WWI is that Europe was filled with crazy, factional, post-Hapsburg, post-Napoleon feuds that we'd do well to avoid.
But Germany running over Poland and France and blitzing London should've looked like a supremely bad thing, I think. Though the will to go to war was not likely to be pinged by anything other than a direct attack. Which happened.
