I would definately read the first Chapter of Mobey Dick and then do Hamlet's soliloquy and a that recitation of Beowulf that bowled over my English teacher in 12th grade.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46821775


I will never forgive my 12th grade English teacher for making me read "Ivanhoe." It was the stupidest and most irresponsibly loquacious book I've ever had the displeasure of wiping my ass with.

A whole chapter was devoted to describing a table. A FUCKING table. Goofball peers of mine read the Cliff notes and got a better grade than I did.

I will never forgive those fuckers.
 Quoting: calx

Now now. What could be more loquacious than a William Faulkner novel?

suicide<-- Me - my sophomore year at University

Ok. Maybe it isn't that he's wordy, he's just fucking dull. However, having Legolas burst into song every few steps about made me want to find Tolkien's ghost and chase him around with a frying pan!

FIRE - 14/08/1968 (Arthur Brown)
1 week at #1 - 14 weeks on chart

I am the god of hell fire, and I bring you
Fire, I'll take you to burn
Fire, I'll take you to learn
I'll see you burn

You fought hard and you saved and earned
But all of it's going to burn
And your mind, your tiny mind
You know you've really been so blind
Now 's your time, burn your mind
You're falling far too far behind
Oh no, oh no, oh no, you're gonna burn

Fire, to destroy all you've done
Fire, to end all you've become
I'll feel you burn

You've been living like a little girl
In the middle of your little world
And your mind, your tiny mind
You know you've really been so blind
Now 's your time, burn your mind
You're falling far too far behind
OOhhh
Fire, I'll take you to burn
Fire, I'll take you to learn
You're gonna burn, you're gonna burn
You're gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn

Fire, I'll take you to burn
Fire, I'll take you to learn
Fire, I'll take you to bed

Re: Sen. Ted Cruz is still at.....
How long will he go?

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) continues to speak on the Senate floor about his opposition to the ObamaCare and why he wanted to block the continuing resolution. He said he intended to talk “until I am no longer able to stand.”

He also rambled earlier - about a thermostat and his father driving over his foot. We were actually all in hysterics here.

He is probably saving his good soundbites waiting for the sheeple to wake up and start grazing and sitting in traffic listening to the news.

What a waste of taxpayer money.

I hope he realizes that the aca is already law, and debt ceiling debates won't change the aca funding.

This is just pathetic that a senator is so useless that they need to draw this much attention to himself for something that he can not change.

I'm all for a filibuster, but this one is completely useless.

Re: Sen. Ted Cruz is still at.....
I won't believe in a politician until one is willing to talk about real issues. Let one filibuster a bill and talk about how the government has been taken over by a secret government that stages events. Let him talk for fourteen hours about Sandy Hook, the Boston Bombing, 911, Kennedy assassination, Wellstone murder etc. Until then they can go eff themselves.

Re: Sen. Ted Cruz is still at.....
I watched him last night off and on and have it back on now. I have mixed emotions in all this. First, I have gained a bunch of respect for Cruz for what he's doing and what he's saying. I was worried he would eventually get tired, look like crap, sound like crap and basically fail totally. But, he's still looking strong and still making sense. As I said, I have gained a lot of respect for him. He's up there doing something when everyone else goes about their lives.

But, I am also disappointed in the whole process. As the most powerful Country in the World and in history...this is all they have to support the people of the USA? Our entire future is about to change, against our will...and the only thing between us and certain doom is Green Eggs and Ham?

God Bless you Mr. Cruz. I know where your heart is and I for one appreciate what you are doing. I also pray that you are successful...

Wrong - Congress can defund ANY program voted into law, even Dear Leader's. Successor Congresses cannot be bound by idioacracy of prior Demonrat majorities.

Obamacare goes down in flames today! Pray strength, stamina and resolve to this man that he can continue (subject of another thread last night).

On a side note, Cruz makes the President look like a pipsqueak (as any accomplished individual does) ... Obama has had life handed to him by his lurking Saudi money-men backers.
