The enduring popularity of Hentai in the Internet Age is a mystery worthy of Sherlock Holmes. Something's obviously blocking their tubes over in Japan. Maybe it's masturbatory ejaculate.

erik estrada should meet katie holmes and go on oprah

This one I got by googling "best joke":
Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson go on a camping trip. After a good dinner and a bottle of wine, they retire for the night, and go to sleep.

Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. “Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.”

“I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes” replies Watson.

“And what do you deduce from that?”

Watson ponders for a minute. “Well,

Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.

Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo.

Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three.

Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.

Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful, and that we are a small and insignificant part of the universe.


But what does it tell you, Holmes?”

Holmes is silent for a moment.

“Watson, you idiot!” he says. “Someone has stolen our tent!”

What. The. Fuck. The currency's value is driven specifically by its supply. Never in history has it not. In any economy! Stop spreading your partisan misinformation, please!

^ ...and Bernanke is one of the top minds on that subject.

For that statement, you should be punched in the dangles while QM sucks you left and right, holmes.

^...Austrian economists like Schiff believe a different story. Mostly the theory is that what I said is quackery, and that any meddling by a central bank will cause more problems than it solves. Why? In my opinion, that's because Austrian economics is just libertarianism dressed up to look like an economic theory, and they don't like that both mainstream schools believe that central banks perform an important role in the economy.

Because Austrian economics is just libertarianism? Well, in that case, I'm glad you recognize people like Thomas Jefferson to be Libertarian in nature. Though, I doubt you could consider Andrew Jackson, the racist father of your Democratic party, to be Libertarian. Obviously neither studied Austrian Economics, but both were adamantly against a centralized bank system. What does that do for your bullshit hypothesis that Austrian Economics is thinly veiled Libertarianism? Probably nothing good, right? Yeah, what I figured.

Actually, being against an elitist, big money, powerful central bank is not an idea solely indicative of Austrian Economics. It's a universal idea most agree with... except those who tow their Democratic party lines so blindly and carefully.

Sorry I missed your roast, holmes. I was hiking and BBQing. I guess I'll just have to intensify my mockery of Ron Paul for the next few months to make up for it.

You mentioned you might be going to Montana with your girl. Is that still happening? Whereabouts were you planning to go?

Here's her quote:
“I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion [as a judge] than a white male who hasn’t lived that life.”—Judge Sonia Sotomayor, in her Judge Mario G. Olmos Law and Cultural Diversity Lecture at the University of California (Berkeley) School of Law in 2001


Taken out of context, no surprise, coming from you.

Here's a little better snapshot of her sentiments:

Whether born from experience or inherent physiological or cultural differences, a possibility I abhor less or discount less than my colleague Judge Cedarbaum, our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging. Justice O'Connor has often been cited as saying that a wise old man and wise old woman will reach the same conclusion in deciding cases. I am not so sure Justice O'Connor is the author of that line since Professor Resnik attributes that line to Supreme Court Justice Coyle. I am also not so sure that I agree with the statement. First, as Professor Martha Minnow has noted, there can never be a universal definition of wise. Second, I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life.

Let us not forget that wise men like Oliver Wendell Holmes and Justice Cardozo voted on cases which upheld both sex and race discrimination in our society. Until 1972, no Supreme Court case ever upheld the claim of a woman in a gender discrimination case. I, like Professor Carter, believe that we should not be so myopic as to believe that others of different experiences or backgrounds are incapable of understanding the values and needs of people from a different group. Many are so capable. As Judge Cedarbaum pointed out to me, nine white men on the Supreme Court in the past have done so on many occasions and on many issues including Brown.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I think Sir Digby Chicken Caesar would make a better Holmes.

Most likely that person in black with the headset piece was a Scientologist.

They've been known to illegally pose as security or police to get things done and to suppress critics and protesters of scientology. The thing is, Scientology believes they're superior to us normal "wogs" as they call us. So its common that you and everyone there were treated like subhumans by, possibly not even museum security, but by scientologists posing as museum security. I'd get in contact with the museum as fast as possible about this. If the Museum doesn't do anything, go to the media because what happened here was definitely illegal.

The reason Mr. Cruise is here is because him and Katie Holmes are visiting the memorial day celebration at the mall while their scientology buddies will be there to exploit the celebration in order to get people to join scientology.

protip: Scientology does not care about about our veterans, only exploiting events and laws to gain more members and suppress the free speech of their critics.

Haven't I heard this somewhere not too long ago ?...


Just saw Star Trek yesterday... Spock says it to, I think, Kirk.

I don't know when y'all read the Holmes stories, but Holmes is most definitely a fucking badass. The only reason he's not a womanizer is that there's never any time in the stories to let him be, but Doyle does suggest it more than once. Further, Holmes was a champion boxer at Uni, and never avoids a fight. This update is fine. You bony nerds are just bitching cuz this Holmes doesn't fit the self-projection fantasy you created when you were sniveling teenage bony nerds. Btw, I'll go toe-to-toe with anyone on Holmes trivia anytime. Also, please no one be offended by being called a bony nerd; clearly I am a pretty big nerd myself. *promote

Sherlock Holmes mashed with Snatch and Bourne?

Weird.

meh, Hugh Laurie is a better Holmes (MD)
