Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
That headline reminds me that I keep hearing people saying how very liberal Barrack Obama is (as a caution against him).
I'd say he is center left, not far left. People went on about how very liberal Clinton was and he was about the very definition of a centrist.
Jimmy Carter too. Every time a centrist Democrat gets elected the media defines his positions as far left, so that anything to left of him is simply crazy talk and not worth considering.
I don't necessarily see him as a centrist, but I'd say he's a moderate liberal. More left-leaning than the average of the Democrat primary candidates last year.
I have found recently that things I put on ebay are going for less than they would have a year or two ago. I think more people are selling and fewer are buying, b/c of the economy. That said, still makes more money than Goodwilling it!

Well centrist almost never means dead-center. Center right to Center left is the spectrum, and still centrist.
That said, still makes more money than Goodwilling it!
That's the theory, anyway...
Jesse, do have any interest in trying to sell the shoes at a flea market table tomorrow? I have some kid's shoes I am selling for $1/pair.
Nah -- less hassle to just donate them.
I'm having KFC for lunch.
Corn on the cob is nummy!
We still use our VCR pretty often because I didn't throw away Emmett's tapes and now Matilda is watching them. I used to buy them used at Amoeba, which is why we have the non-Disney dubbed version of Totoro (distributed by Troma!).
We have the entire Farscape run on VHS too because (a) the DVDs were way overpriced and (b) they did a marathon of the entire run.
Also, I still make compilation tapes of music and stuff off the Tivo. That's how I made Jilli's Goth Videos two hour tape. I've also got a Mod Scenes collection of clips (mixing videos of the Jam and Madness with movie clips from the mid-sixties that are uber-mod). My favorite mix is a collection of music scenes I like from movies which starts with the famous (and much copied) dance scene in Band of Outsiders (Godard, early sixties), and includes bits from Purple Rain and animation songs from Yo Gabba Gabba and beatnik dance club scenes (Bell, Book and Candle; Funny Face, et al.) and stuff like that. It's the best eye candy.
