I have a new video posted. I call it Barbiter.
I also just finished watching The People Vs. Larry Flynt.
I'd seen the movie before and I think it is pretty good but what I really like is what Larry Flynt has done for this country.
First of all let me say that I don’t read Hustler. I don’t buy porn anymore since I discovered what’s available on the Internet for free.
I realize that he is a scumbag. He has referred to himself as a scumbag on several occasions. But he has the money to do what he wants. Luckily for the American People he enjoys spending it to hound out hypocrisy of those who would put themselves above the People.
In the case against him where he made a parody ad of Jerry Falwell where he insinuated that Mr. Falwell’s first sexual experience was with his mother in an outhouse, Chief Justice Rehnquist had this to say:
“At the heart of the First Amendment is the recognition of the fundamental importance of the free flow of ideas and opinions on matters of public interest and concern. ‘The freedom to speak one's mind is not only an aspect of individual liberty--and thus a good unto itself--but also is essential to the common quest for truth and the vitality of society as a whole.’ Bose Corp. v. Consumers Union of United States, Inc., 466 U. S. 485, 503-504 (1984). We have therefore been particularly vigilant to ensure that individual expressions of ideas remain free from governmentally imposed sanctions.”
Hustler Magazine, Inc. et al. v. Jerry Falwell, 485 U.S. 46, SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES.
I really believe that Larry Flynt has done more for the Freedom of Speech than any other person in the last 30 years.
BTW. When Jerry Falwell sued Larry Flynt, Falwell made copies of the parody ad and passed them out in packages for raising donations. Larry Flynt counter sued because Jerry Falwell didn’t get permission to use his copyrighted ad.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

God Damn it!!!
I just wrote this long ass story about a fight at the Mag and the whole thing got lost when my browser crashed.
Here is the stream of conscious version of the story and I may give you the full length version tomorrow.
Dickhead is in the bar.
He pissed off the wrong people.
He got punched several times.
I let it go on as long as I felt he deserved it.
I broke it up.
He took a swing at Kevin.
Kevin tried to put a cigar in his eye.
The cop told the dick to go home.
Dick may have been arrested if it wasn't for the fact that it was 20 deg F.
From now on I will do my post in Word and cut and paste.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

In a few weeks I'm heading to Birmingham, AL. My friend Nikki moved there recently so I'm going to go and check out her new digs. With her leaving a job in Huntsville and starting a new job in Birmingham she hasn't had a chance to visit Louisville in a while.
I'm really looking forward to seeing her. To top it all off I got really cheap airline tickets. I went to SouthWest.com. They were having a special and I got the tickets for $71.50, roundtrip including taxes. That's as cheap as I could have even driven. Driving, it would be around 750 miles round trip. With my car's mileage and the price of gas at $1.50 plus whatever else I got on the way down and back, its a bargain to save me the time and the wear and tear on my car.
I'm still going to Costa Rica sometime but I'm afraid I'm going to push it back until I can get some better ticket prices. I'm sure this will piss Mark off in Costa Rica but I can't help it. I just can't justify paying the prices they are asking when if I would have gone in March they would have been dirt cheap.
As you can tell from the tone of this posting, I am a little cheap. There are some good things about being cheap. One, you have money when you really want to do something. Two, I'll never be a drug addict, I just can't justify spending that much money on drugs. Three, I'm not a whoremonger. This may be more of a moral stand but being cheap doesn't hurt. Four, I only go to strip clubs once in a while, just enough to keep it fun.
I'm sure there are other good things about being cheap but I can't think of anymore right now. In my defense though, I'm not so cheap that I won't pick up a tab now and then and help a friend out if they really needed help.
That's enough for tonight.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

I forgot to mention yesterday that I posted the new Babe of the month.
When I was a kid I always told people that I hated country music.
A few adults told me that would change when I got older. They were correct but only to a point. I don't like new country. Even when I was a teenager the "new" country of that time sucked. Except for maybe a couple of songs.
I have really grown to appreciate old country. Especially, Hank Williams Sr., Johnny Cash, Bill Monroe, Flat and Scruggs, Charlie Pride and even some Conway Twitty.
The reason I bring this up is because I'm sitting here listening to the O Brother Where Art Thou? Soundtrack. There are no really big names that I know of but the music is fantastic. I lot of very old songs done in a traditional arrangement. This is "folk music", "bluegrass music", "old timey country" and its music you'll never hear even on country radio.
One of my favorite songs is "I am a Man of Constant Sorrow", which is featured prominently in the movie. The last stanza of the song goes...
"Maybe your friends say I'm just a stranger,
My face you never will see no more.
But there's one promise that is given,
I'll meet you on God's golden shore."
I must admit though my favorite song on the CD is probably the biggest downer on the soundtrack. Its called "O Death". I have heard many versions of the song but this is the first acapela (sp?) version I've heard. Here is a sample of the lyrics...
"Oh-oh Death, Oh-oh-oh Death,
Can't you spare me over till another year
I lock their jaws so they can't talk,
Stiffen their legs so they can't walk
Close their eyes so they can't see
The chill you feel, it comes from me"
It a real toe tapper. ;-)
Seriously though it is a very intense song with more imagery than anything you can hear on the radio now.
To make a long story short, I may like some country but not the music that they said I would like.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

Today's link of the day is kind of fucked up but since I was recently talking about masturbation I thought it was kind of appropriate.
Last night was an interesting night at the Mag. This drunk redneck woman was being a pain in the ass most of the night and then finally started to calm down. She calmed down so much she was starting to fall asleep. Danny told her to leave and she started to give him some shit. Danny was already a little pissed and he shouted, “This is not a discussion! I’m busy, I got thinks to do!” And as he walked away he shouted, “MOVE IT, TRENCHMOUTH!”
She got up and bolted for the door. Everyone at the corner of the bar sat stunned for half a second and then we all busted out laughing. People get kicked out every so often but I think that was the first time we heard that phrase. We continue to talk about this for the next few minutes and this other redneck starts calling Danny a faggot and then proceeds to point at each of us sitting at the bar and call us all faggots individually.
Apparently she was a friend of the first redneck woman. Mark got up and went to the door and laughed hysterically at them. Which is pretty much what the rest of us inside also did.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

Cyrus and I were having a discussion about what I wrote the other day about religion and my inability to believe.
I want to make it clear that its not that I don't believe in anything. I'm not a nihlist. I just don't really know what I believe in. I'm stealing this from Cyrus, but if you grab a bible with the New Testament and its one of the versions where everything Jesus says is in red print, if you read only the red print you hear some pretty good things which are pretty much the tenants of a lot of the different religions out there.
Its the people who take the words and twist them into a religion that are the problem.
This girl at the Mag told me she saw a bumper sticker that read, "Dear Lord, Protect me from your followers!"
You said a mouthful there, brother!
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

Every so often I will ask for comments from you people on whatever I am writing about. I usually get at least one comment and sometimes I get two or three. I must have struck a nerve with masturbation. It not like I was completely swamped with emails but I got more than I have ever gotten at one time.
So today's post I will be putting up some of the responses, sans names of course.

I used to beat off all the time to this book on Germany that my family had. You see they had bought these books that highlighted a different place each month for a year. I always checked out these books as I have always been interested in traveling. So while thumbing through the one on Germany I noticed a picture a nude German beach. Now instead of just looking at the whole picture I concentrated on two women sitting in the middle of the page who were only topless but that was good enough for me. And as an added bonus there was a middle aged man just to the left of them that had a penis even smaller than mine. Hell you cant beat that at the age of 12 seeing two topless chicks and a guy your dads age who had a smaller prick than even yourself. That book brought me a many joyful night that I am sure the creators of the book could even of imagined. To top things off about two years ago I came home from working on the ships and while scrounging through some old things I found that book again. Needles to say I whipped it off and smacked it around for old time sakes. god bless Germany.
I love when educational material is used for sordid purposes.

The strangest thing I ever masturbated to was a story I wrote specifically for the occasion. In the middle of the afternoon, there's really not much that's rub-worthy on the TV, and as you so intelligently observed, it's hard for young 'uns (especially a young girl living with a single mom) to have porn of any kind lying around the house. However, I was determined, so I grabbed a notepad and a pen and just scrawled in a stream-of-consciousness vein for about 10 minutes to make sure I had plenty of material. All things considered, I could be a pretty resourceful 12-year-old at times.
It was actually a good story, too- wish I knew where it was now. OK, maybe not RIGHT now, but you get the point.
In my reply to her I asked her if she skipped the foreplay.
From: Young_Danielle_Steel Part 2
Yeah. Most of my... 'stories' do. If patience is a virtue, it's not one I was given.
My kind of woman.

when i was locked up i did it to the Home shopping network, they were selling some womens clothes.
I personally hate the Home Shopping Network.
Well, that's enough for one day. If anyone else wants to contribute let me know.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.
