How the hell did this thread about Wardle turn into a political commentary about the IRS, Roker, and a ton of other things.

Now if that player was made to crap in his pants, somebody needs to open up the investigation about who made Majerus crap in a towel.

Is Wardle home scott free now? If so, will he get the Father's blessing as Buzz's replacement when he decides to leave. Doesn't Kimberrly Clark still make diapers and are still located in the Neenah area? I'll bet they are making contributions to Wardle's defense fund.

Wardle is not the heir apparent.

If and when Buzz bolts, this program will be in a better position to attract a more qualified replacement.

The reality is that this episode will always be a part of any conversation concerning Brian Wardle. One is never fully exonerated in such proceedings. Innuendo is an insidiousl weapon. Sun Tzu observed that the whispered word is often more devastating than the frontal assault. Bruises heal but diminished luster persists.

Crean said his biggest concern was ensuring Wardle had the right attorney to help him navigate the investigation.

"I'm sick over him and his family having to go through this," Crean said. "In the same vein, he will be better for it and will learn a ton about people and their agendas and that will serve him well. I appreciate people supported him and the truth came out."


After I read this all I could think of was fluoridated water is a communist plot and this.

In Kubrick's classic, Dr. Strangelove, the paranoid psychotic Gen. Jack D. Ripper pontificates to a stiff-upper lipped RAF Group Captain Lionel Mandrake about the dangers of fluoridated water— a Communist plot to sap the free world of its "precious bodily fluids" as he unleashes thermonuclear Armageddon outside.


Gen Ripper: "Mandrake, have you ever seen a Commie drink a glass of water?"

GC Mandrake: "Well, I can't say that I have."

Gen Ripper: "Vodka, that's what they drink . . . on no account will a Commie ever drink water, and not without good reason . . . Have you never wondered why I drink only distilled water, or rainwater, and only pure-grain alcohol? Have you ever heard of a thing called fluoridation of water? Do you realize that fluoridation is the most monstrously conceived and dangerous Communist plot we have ever had to face?"




Peter Sellers was stupendous in that film. Sellers actually played three roles - The President, the President's National Security Adviser Dr. Strangelove (an eerie take on Henry Kissinger,) and RAF Group Captain Lionel Mandrake.







Peter Sellers was a true comedic genius. It is regrettable that so few today have even heard his name much less witnessed his virtuosity.

Sellers was awesome, and how about George C. Scott as Buck Turgeon, and Chill Wills as the hillbilly pilot.

Actually, it was Slim Pickens as the BUFF Driver who rode the nuke into Mother Russia in the movie's denouement. Classic.

Thank you--you are right and I am corrected. Pickens was great.

Vodka is nasty. I prefer Gin Martinis (Beefeaters or Tangueray). Ripper was right. The Ruusskies drink vodka, therefore, vodka is part of the Communist conspiracy.

My vodka is made in 'Murrica, so I am being patriotic when I drink it.

And gin hangovers are much nastier than vodka ones.

Gin is just vodka with botanicals mixed in (juniper, cardamom, coriander, anise, and zest.) There are some nice craft vodkas being produced in the States. I like one done by Rogue out of Oregon. Nicely done with an emphasis on barley in its grain mash. The most overrated vodka is Grey Goose. Brilliantly marketed...P.T. Barnum would be proud.

My favorite gins are Scottish. Hendricks and Caorunn are certainly worth investigating. The Scots have some sway in the lore of gin for it was Highlanders stationed in British India who created the Gin and Tonic as a delivery method for quinine as an anti-malarial.

There is a great case study on Stoli, which was a cheap product in the old USSR. It was PepsiCo's counter trade that converted internationally worthless rubles for Crimean ships, Ukrainian wheat, and Russian vodka. Pepsi put some marketing genius behind Stoli and a brand was born. Fascinating business case, actually.

My father taught me many essential life skills but two of the most compelling are to never watch a Jane Fonda movie and never buy anything French. Scrupulous adherence to both has served me rather well.
