Anyway, Burt Lancaster is a babe-magnet to all the chicks he comes across, like Peter Fonda is in 'Easy Rider', except Burt Lancaster is in swim trunks and Fonda is in that bad-ass leather jacket with the American Flag on the back.

Burt Lancaster in 'The Swimmer': this film is, like, 'Easy Rider' for affluent suburban dudes and shit. Except he doesn't get shot in the end. In the late Sixties and early Seventies the dudes had to get shot at the end to make it, like, true, because that shit happens, man.

The most epic of this was Robert Blake in 'Elektra Glide in Blue', where the fucking hippies shoot him off his bike and he's dying in the middle of the highway and the camera keeps pulling back until he disappears in the distance of, like, Monument Valley, it fucking rocks. Shit happens at 1:50 and shit.

Anyway, Burt Lancaster is a babe-magnet to all the chicks he comes across, like Peter Fonda is in 'Easy Rider', except Burt Lancaster is in swim trunks and Fonda is in that bad-ass leather jacket with the American Flag on the back. And, like, they are both finding out about America and themselves, except the old dude is really just in the suburbs.

It's like the two films are from two different eras, except 'The Swimmer' was in 1968 and 'Easy Rider' was made in 1969 so, like, they were only a year apart. But they both are about journeys, but Burt Lancaster was a lot older than Peter Fonda, so his journey was more of a dad-journey, like all mid-life crisis and shit, where Fonda was having a young dude's journey while wearing that bad-ass leather jacket with the American Flag on the back.

So, both are kinda about disillusionment and shit, except the old dude drinks while the young dude smokes pot, but they both kinda feel like the American Dream isn't really there anymore. But in those days the old dudes suffered on the inside, while the young dudes let that shit hang out, I think this was, like, symbolized in their haircuts and shit.

"And I've got to admit that it's just about exactly how I pictured the myself as an old lady when I was 19 years old."

So I was reading an Althouse post on some ad she got emailed, and the ad was of an old lady being groovy in the way old ladies in ads sometimes do. Anyway, Althouse wrote this: " And I've got to admit that it's just about  exactly  how I pictured the myself as an old lady when I was 19 years old." And, like, this gave me an idea and shit, but my buddy Laslo beat me to it. So anyway, here's a pic of young Althouse imagining herself as a groovy old lady...

Anyway, I think Tom Brokaw's that kind of guy -- like, not a child molester, but that he treats chicks like a child molester treats children before he fucks them after they look at the secret magazines with their pants off.

I think I read somewhere that one of the reasons people are jumping Tom Brokaw's shit is that he tickled a chick he worked with back in the day. And I find that kinda funny, because he seems like he's one of those pussy dudes who thinks he's, like, a feminist, but then he goes and tickles a chick like a child molester does with a nephew before taking him into the back bedroom to look at secret magazines with their pants off, while everyone else is out in the yard having a barbecue for grandma because she's still alive on her birthday and shit. Anyway, I think Tom Brokaw's that kind of guy -- like, not a child molester, but that he treats chicks like a child molester treats children before he fucks them after they look at the secret magazines with their pants off. And I think I think this because people who tickle other people who didn't ask to be tickled are fucking shady. Because tickling is, like, trying to get a response that's kinda sexual while bein...

"You no hero, GI, you my Jane Fonda! You my Jane Fonda bitch!"

"Has anyone ever asked McCain if, like, when he was a prisoner of war, did any Viet Cong dude ever fuck him in the ass?" I bet, if it happened, it went something like this: "How you like war now, GI? How you like your war now, Big American Soldier Man?" "Stop fucking me in the ass, Viet Cong Prison Guard dude!" "I fuck you in the ass, GI! You bomb my people, and now I fuck you in the ass with the fury of a thousand napalm!" "I'm a soldier! You fucking me in the ass is, like, against the Geneva Convention and shit." "There is no protection for the Imperialist Mangy Dogs! I fuck you in the ass like mangy dog, Imperialist GI!" "Please stop fucking me in the ass, Viet Cong Prison Guard dude!" "You will not defeat the glorious revolution of the peoples! The revolution will not stop until all the Imperialist Mangy Dogs are fucked in the ass!" "It hurts! Even though your cock is small co...
