What? No Darryl?

HAHA! That's awesome...I was correct on accident I suppose. Or I knew that all along...>> ^Ryjkyj:

I don't moderate my channel. The irony is that it's the "law" channel.
[edit] is that irony?

I think in this case, you're dead on:

"Irony deals with opposites; it has nothing to do with coincidence. If two baseball players from the same hometown, on different teams, receive the same uniform number, it is not ironic. It is a coincidence. If Barry Bonds attains lifetime statistics identical to his father’s it will not be ironic. It will be a coincidence. Irony is “a state of affairs that is the reverse of what was to be expected; a result opposite to and in mockery of the appropriate result.” For instance:
If a diabetic, on his way to buy insulin, is killed by a runaway truck, he is the victim of an accident. If the truck was delivering sugar, he is the victim of an oddly poetic coincidence. But if the truck was delivering insulin, ah! Then he is the victim of an irony.
If a Kurd, after surviving bloody battle with Saddam Hussein’s army and a long, difficult escape through the mountains, is crushed and killed by a parachute drop of humanitarian aid, that, my friend, is irony writ large.
Darryl Stingley, the pro football player, was paralyzed after a brutal hit by Jack Tatum. Now Darryl Stingley’s son plays football, and if the son should become paralyzed while playing, it will not be ironic. It will be coincidental. If Darryl Stingley’s son paralyzes someone else, that will be closer to ironic. If he paralyzes Jack Tatum’s son that will be precisely ironic."

Went to see Hall & Oates this past summer at the PNE- terrible venue, but great show. Band was hot, Darryl's voice was in top form, and John Oates was just John Oates- with everything that implys.

*quality pop

Remember the old days when the cool bands were the ones where they all played their own instruments and sang without autotune?

Thanks for promote!

Pleasure. Sometimes it's the good ones that needs the most help.

Hi, my name is Larry, this is my brother Darryl...

"Lola, a four-year-old tabby, was discovered 15 hours later by owner Darryl Mann after he heard her cries."

I coulda swore the hosts were Darryl Hall & John Oates...

Note, this is not THE Darroll Wilson:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darroll_Wilson

This is: Darryl M. Wilson
http://chronicle.augusta.com/stories/013102/met_192-6615.001.shtml

When Darryl M. Wilson takes his psychiatric medication, he's as good as gold, his wife and supporters told a judge Wednesday.

But the problem is that he won't stay on the medicine, Judge Albert M. Pickett said in Richmond County Superior Court, while trying to decide what sentence Mr. Wilson should receive for crimes related to a videotaped attack of a Richmond County deputy.

"When he's not taking his medication, he is a threat to the community. He's a big, strong man. He is capable of and has demonstrated that he can hurt people badly," Judge Pickett said.

The problem is that nothing can be done to ensure Mr. Wilson is medicated every day, the judge said.

On Aug. 10, 2000, Deputy Shannon Mitchell saw Mr. Wilson drive through a red light. A video camera on the deputy's cruiser captured the traffic stop and subsequent violence on tape: Mr. Wilson attacked Deputy Mitchell and continued to do so after the deputy blasted him with pepper spray and shot him in the stomach.

The worst moments came when Mr. Wilson wrestled away the officer's gun, pointed it at him and fired, Deputy Mitchell testified in August.

"If not for the gun jamming, the state believes Deputy Mitchell would have been killed," Assistant District Attorney Jason Troiano said Wednesday.

After a bench trial in August, Judge Pickett found Mr. Wilson guilty but mentally ill. That finding requires state prison authorities to house Mr. Wilson in a facility that can provide psychiatric treatment.

Defense attorney Sam Sibley asked the judge to consider the time Mr. Wilson has spent in jail since his Aug. 10, 2000, arrest. He also told the judge how well Mr. Wilson does while medicated.

Judge Pickett imposed a 10-year prison sentence on Mr. Wilson, followed by an additional 17-year probationary sentence.

While on probation, Mr. Wilson must undergo mental health treatment, take his medicine, and submit to drug and alcohol screening and to voluntary commitment to a mental health facility at least twice a year.

Mr. Wilson gave a long and at times rambling statement Wednesday, beginning with an apology to Deputy Mitchell. He was off his medication that day, he said.

"(Satan) tricked me. He tried to kill me and Shannon Mitchell," Mr. Wilson said.

Don't worry about it. My only concern was that you thought I actually liked that song. It nauseates me too. I still remember when it came out: Right around the beginning of the Iraq War. My older brother got married then, and when I was taking a cab somewhere when I was in Boston (where he lives) the damn cabbie had it playing on the radio. He thought it was a GREAT song, and asked me what I thought of it. All I said was, "Are we almost there?"

Sometimes I think the Obama campaign should make a parody of it, asking people "Have you forgotten?" about what a Bush stooge McCain really is.

That song just makes me nauseous. I had the uncontrollable urge to downvote it before I got to the last line. Sorry. I actually tried to find the song on the sift so I could downvote that too, but it's not on the site. Sorry. Of course I know you were being sarcastic.

Oh, and it looks like I sent my explanatory message to myself somehow.

Puke. I'm happy to report that this shitty propaganda song has not been posted on this site.

But as Darrell Worley asked, "Have you forgotten?"

They took all the footage off my T.V.
Said it's too disturbing for you and me
It'll just breed anger that's what the experts say
If it was up to me I'd show it everyday
Some say this country's just out looking for a fight
Well, after 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right
