Goin Hollywood

It has been brought to The Aurora's attention that Cindy Sheehan (sponsored by those fun lovin' soccer moms Code Pink) is fast timing at ridgemont high until the war is over. Well good for her. I know a thing or two about hunger strikes, as the anniversary approaches of ten brave men in the Long Kesh prison put their political convictions over their own well being seeking political status and to protest the conditions of Catholic prisoners. They died for their cause, and it was an historic moment in the equal rights movement of Northern Ireland.

Does Cindy believe strong enough in hers to do the same? Or is this just another desperate act of a desperate woman to get back on the front pages. Good question, only time will tell.

The Hollywood loons are following suit in typical limousine liberal fashion. Penn, Sarandon, Glover et al are forming a Hunger Strike Relay Team. They are taking turns not eating...FOR A DAY. Thats not fasting, thats indigestion. Essentially they are doing nothing, well besides alleviating their own guilt and catching some free PR.

Here at The Aurora we have decided to start our own protest. Going forward until the likes of the above mentioned hollywood hippies grow a sack of onions, The Aurora will do our part to keep the American farmers and food producers afloat, contrary to the treacherous attempts of the thespiatic anti-foodites. We will not sit idly as The Peoples Republic Of Hollywood tries as they might to destroy the agroeconomics of this fine country.


Henceforth I will be be eating two breakfasts, Rhino two lunches and Warlike two dinners on the first day, then I will eat two lunches the next, Rhino two dinners, and Warlike two breakfasts etcetera etc. We will continue our vigil of gluttony to combat the smugness* of the hybrid car driving private plane flying, famine on Tuesday feast on Thursday crowd. Ive had my eye on the enormous omelet sandwich for some time. Time to wake up with the King baby.

Even though we couldn't disagree more politically (well, I can think of three areas of agreement -- taxes too high, gun control absurd, financial regulation double absurd), I think you are spot-on in your skewering of the fake Hollywood liberal BS.

Anita, Anita Frere and I seem to agree on this point, if you are not ready for redistribution of wealth and violence to back it up (I'm surely not), you are a capitalist and it's all shades of gray. I'm a happy capitalist.

I think you are being unfair to Cindy Sheehan, though. She's (to quote UGLY GEORGE "a goil with balls"). And don't forget she's on OUR side against Hillary Clinton.

Now, on to the important topic -- New York Metropolitan Baseball. Why is management's inability to invent a 3rd, 4th and 5th starter scaring me so much? I don't buy Pelfrey as the answer. How many mid-season rookie call-ups can you think of that were the bomb and stayed the bomb? Doc, D-Train, and Felix are the only ones that come to mind. There are usually lots of growing pains and do we really want to see Pelfrey knocked around for the next 3 1-2 months?

I say let's do it the Billy Beane way for now, get rid of Lima, and bite down hard.

Speaking of Lima, how funny is Steve Somers on the night FAN show? Makes a fellow proud to bleed blue-and-orange.

Peace,

Can't I be on the "Sleeping With The Enemy" List...I may be a god-and-America-hating hedonist, but I DO know who Don Hahn is

Peace,

Is Don Han related to Lance Hahn of J Church? Is it a German Hahn or a Korean Hahn? Or a Chinese Han? Or a Vietnamese name?

I gotta know. This Don Hahn might be an illiterate and in a position of authority in the discussion group. Ichiro and Hideki have more on the ball than this guy, if it comes to it. In our literate experience, it is always just a hop skip and a jump away from Coughlinism to have an illiterate slag dude in charge of a 2006 discussion group. What on earth does one think the paradise promised by the 1960s consists of? Literacy in Chinese, that's what.

Present company excluded, of course.

Sony, for instance, means "new power" or "fresh girlfriend".

I feel like a Roman Emperor in charge of pre-literate Czechoslovakia sometimes. Read the [Chinese] paper, my friend!
