Leave Sarah Palin alone! She's my hero.

I keep picturing Vincent D'Onofrio doing that USA ad goin "cuz I'm the wack job!"

Wow, I'd forgotten how much John Landis chopped up the song to make it work with the mini-movie he wrote.

Original song:
Verse 1
Chorus 1
Verse 2
Chorus 2
Bridge
Verse 3
Chorus 3
Chorus 4
Vincent Price

Video:
Verse 1
Verse 2
Verse 3
Vincent Price
Chorus 1
Chorus 3
Chorus 4

The bridge ("there's no escaping the jaws of the alien") and chorus 2 ("the thing with forty eyes") are completely missing. You'd think with a video that long, they'd find room for all the lyrics.

this shit gave me nightmares last night. i hope you people find this funny. it's a little funny having muppet/vincent pryce nightmares.

From your own link:

FACT: Jet fuel burns at 800° to 1500°F, not hot enough to melt steel (2750°F). However, experts agree that for the towers to collapse, their steel frames didn't need to melt, they just had to lose some of their structural strength — and that required exposure to much less heat. "I have never seen melted steel in a building fire," says retired New York deputy fire chief Vincent Dunn, author of The Collapse Of Burning Buildings: A Guide To Fireground Safety. "But I've seen a lot of twisted, warped, bent and sagging steel. What happens is that the steel tries to expand at both ends, but when it can no longer expand, it sags and the surrounding concrete cracks."

"Steel loses about 50 percent of its strength at 1100°F," notes senior engineer Farid Alfawak-hiri of the American Institute of Steel Construction. "And at 1800° it is probably at less than 10 percent." NIST also believes that a great deal of the spray-on fireproofing insulation was likely knocked off the steel beams that were in the path of the crashing jets, leaving the metal more vulnerable to the heat.

The Madrid fire burned for 24 hours at temperatures up to 800°C (1500°F) and did not collapse. In 2004, Venezuela's tallest building burned uncontrolled for 17 hours and did not collapse. WTC7 had two small fires which burned for 6 hours and it collapsed in what looks like a controlled demolition.


When the tapes from 9/11 firefighters in were released, there was no mention of communication problems as we were told, and firefighters only reported small pockets of fire, not a huge inferno that can melt steel.

Two hose lines are needed, Chief Orio Palmer says from an upper floor of the badly damaged south tower at the World Trade Center. Just two hose lines to attack two isolated pockets of fire. ''We should be able to knock it down with two lines,'' he tells the firefighters of Ladder Company 15 who were following him up the stairs of the doomed tower.

Lt. Joseph G. Leavey is heard responding: ''Orio, we're on 78, but we're in the B stairway. Trapped in here. We got to put some fire out to get to you.''

Ladder 15 had finally found the fire after an arduous climb to the 78th floor, according to the tape. They were in the B stairwell. On the other side of the fire were hundreds of people, blocked from fleeing by smoke and flame on the stairs. Chief Palmer was facing similar fires in the A stairwell, across the floor.

''We're gonna knock down some fire here in the B Stair,'' Lieutenant Leavey is heard telling one of his firefighters. ''We'll meet up with you. You get over to the A Stair and help out Chief Palmer.''

If those fires were burning at 1500-1800°F, the people on that floor would have been dead.

I'm no conspiracy theory nutcase, but I'm also not stupid, the "official" explanations of collapse just don't match reality.

so give me a handout to develop some philosophy and social structure and culture. tell me how that works in a free market.

Heres the prescription I would give to (begin to) cure the philosophical deficiency of 21st century culture:
"The Blind Watchmaker" my Richard Dawkins
"The Selfish Gene" by Richard Dawkins
"For The New Intellectual" by Ayn Rand
"The Virtue of Selfishness" by Ayn Rand
"Free To Choose" by Milton Friedman
"Economics in One Lesson" by Henry Hazlitt
"The Art of Thinking" by Vincent Ruggiero
"The Nature of Consciousness" by Alan Watts

Two years ago I was just as against the free market as you or anyone else was. It was only possible for me to accept these ideas once I had changed my philosophical, societal, and cultural perspective. Philosophy is not bought or sold on ebay, it is taught in schools, in interactions with friends, and from parents.

These conversations are my attempt to share philosophy, maybe I'm not very successful...but I'm just some random guy I'm no Alan Watts.

>>To some degree I think the nature of schooling should spend more time on critical thinking, research, logic, etc. before it ever starts with real subject matter...but that's a whole other can of worms.


I agree 100%. I think this is one of the most sorely lacking subjects in public education. I would like to see a 9th grade class on critical thinking. There is actually a textbook on this subject "The Art of Thinking" by Vincent Ryan Ruggiero which I think would do an exceptional job.

I actually think high schoolers should be pushed a lot harder. The step from high school to college is really an immense one, yet I'm not sure theres a physiological basis for this. I'd really like to see a college-style education in grades 10-12--that is, one which necessitates 2-4 hours of out-of-school work.

So yes paddling works, until the child can fight back.

There is no reason to paddle, there is reason to reason with children, violence only begets violence. Stimulus and response, you kick a dog so many times it will bite you back, and all I can say is you deserved it. So don't kick the dog. Ya dig?

"VINCENT
Just drive.
(beat)
They project onto you their flaws,
what they don't like about themselves,
their lives, whatever. And then they
rank on you, instead...

MAX
How do you know?

VINCENT
I had a father like that.

MAX
Mothers are worse.

VINCENT *
Mine died when I was one. *

MAX
What happened?

VINCENT
He hated whatever I did. Got drunk.
Beat me up all the time.

MAX
Then what?

VINCENT
(intimate)
I killed him. I was 12.

VINCENT (CONT'D)
He was the first.
(off Max's look)
I'm kidding. He died of liver cancer.
" - quoted from http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Collateral.html

Point is you never know when as a parent you could cause a problem with a child, you don't beat them you punish them in other ways. But most of the time its because they are defiant of you, and they are trying to create a niche for themselves int he family unit, what do you expect. Its the nature of life, make a niche or die.


PS: Some one said something about paddling people, had to input.

>> ^Irishman:
How do you think this event will be percieved around the world?
Moving the venue to a football ground and filling it with 75,000 'adoring fans' does have the whiff of fanatacism about it.
I'm sure many Europeans will see this event echoing 1930s Germany.
I think it's right that this be raised and discussed. Obama's speech in Israel followed by this event is sending out a very particular type of message.
It's not about what I personally think, it's about the alarm bells that this kind of stunt rings around the rest of the world. It's about perception.


So to my original point, normally nomination acceptance speeches are given before a crowd of 20,000...why is adding 55,000 more people nefarious?

Don't things like torture, ignoring habeas corpus, domestic spying, propaganda, consolidating power, and open flirtation with starting a war with Iran send a bigger message?

We've got an election where McCain is endorsing all of those things either overtly in his rhetoric, or tacitly by refusing to vote against them, and Obama speaks out about ending all of the above, and votes against it when he has the opportunity.

Given that, shouldn't Europeans be more concerned that there's still a pretty significant chance McCain could win, not because Obama plans to give a speech before a crowd less than half the size of the one he attracted in Germany?
