Spread The Iris: All Ron & Fez ALL The Time - Blogs

Random ponderings (shit I think up)

hotshot70 — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 07:07:40 GMT

I decided to start this blog to post thoughts I get. Who knows what it will be about.

1. The Alaska quarter should have Sarah Palin on it with the phrase "25 cents - 25 IQ points" at top and "I can see Russia from my house" at bottom.

2. Why is it women can go to the bathroom in large groups in a restaurant and people think nothing of it, but if 2 guys happen to get up to go to the bathroom at same time, it looks so weird?

3. If the president is chosen by who has the most electorial votes, why bother going to vote? Bush had lower popular vote both times and still managed to get in. In high school, class president was chosen by most votes wins. Why not do that in the real important elections?

4. If someone breaks their leg doing a play, how do you wish them luck when they are back?

5. If wrestling on TV is fake, why have referees?

6. Why do colleges beg for so much in grants to improve the education of the school, but find the sports so important that they let the star players bad grades "slip"?

7. Why do movies have no problem showing female frontal nudity but freak out if a man's junk accidently appears?

More to follow in future.

About the vandalism to my picture...

hotshot70 — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 10:25:15 GMT

It seems that once again, I am the butt of the joke in STI. My profile pic has been constantly altered and reposted in others signatures. It has gone beyond just being a ribbing where people do something, so "ha-ha" and then move on. These actions are hurtful since I see it as a form of vandalism. It's like taking spraypaint over the top of a portrait. An action like this would be a crime. I admit to joking around with others, but I have NEVER done actions to anyone in STI to attack, deface, or alter anyones profile, picture, or other info. A one time posting I could have gotten over, but constant repostings and use of my pic in others signatures is very hurtful. I suffer from depression and go thru the up and downs. This latest down is affecting my health. Plus, I have an event to take part in that is WORLD known. I meet people from all over the USA and other countries, and if I cannot work there, it makes my abilities appear less than satisfactory. I am not asking for anything outrageous, just for the removal of the altered images of my pic. I love STI 99% of the time and can even roll with the jokes on occasion, but right now, it's really hurting. If any of the heads of this site could PLEASE help me, I would be grateful. And to those that are childish and callous enough to continue hurting me, I really pity you. And to be honest, I think you need real help. Again, heads of STI, I ask for help, so I can continue to enjoy this site with everyone else. Let's keep the site fun.

85th Annual Sidney Iowa Rodeo July 29 - Aug. 2, 2008.

hotshot70 — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 09:50:43 GMT

I will be working at the rodeo again this year. Anyone that will be there for the show can look for me. I am one of the "officials" that walks around with a badge. There will be a parade in town at 4 pm on Tuesday the 29th, and a show every night thru Sat. Aug. 2 at 8pm. After the Friday Night show is a dance with Secret Weapon. www. myspace. com/secretweaponrocks for info about them. Saturday Night after the show is another dance with Cheshire Grin. www.cheshiregrinband is their site. Both dances are no extra charge to get in, but you still have to pay for drinks. Just keep your ticket from that night's show. The rodeo's website is www. sidneyrodeo. us. Hope to meet some of you out there.

My theories of time travel

hotshot70 — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 20:46:24 GMT

I enjoyed Dr. Kaku on O&A and kinda agree with his theories, but I have a few of my own.

I believe if a person went back in time and met themselves, there would be a catastophic imbalance in the continuum.
I believe that every person's brain waves are unique, just like fingerprints. These waves actually would travel though out the space/time continuum. If there is an imbalance and if your past and future selves met, your brainwaves would actually "short circuit" and when you recovered, the memory of such a meeting would be erased to prevent insanity. In Doctor Who, they called this the "Blinovitch effect". (I do not know if this is a real theory, but it makes sense to me).
If you were crazy enough to try and go back to kill yourself, many factors would prevent it. Let's say you went back in time wanting to shoot your earlier self. You see your earlier self and take your gun, aim and fire. The bullet misses being fatal and grazes your arm, an injury that makes you unable to fire a gun properly. So, in a twisted way, you have actually prevented your own premature demise.
Ghosts are disruptions in the space/time continuum at a low risk. Why else would these ghosts be from eras past? In most cases, the beings had gotten caught in a "time eddy" and are now stuck in limbo. In some cases, conditions must be matched for them to return to normal, which is why many ghosts that haunt a place are trying to get people to help them get back to normal.
Well, I could go on for a long time on this. Yes, I am a fan of Dr. Who and other similar shows. I think I have an older soul. Perhaps I have experienced a time distortion and have no memory of it. Let me know your thoughts.

Dear Family Guy......

Slumbag — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 10:37:53 GMT

Hey. It's me. This is going to be difficult, but it needs to be said. I want to start this by saying we had some really good times together. I remember times I would smoke a nice bowl, have a couple beers, and sit up all night laughing. Remember the time Stewie and Brian went to England? What about the time the Griffins moved down South with all the rednecks? Funny stuff, right? All those Dukes of Hazzard references. Your zippy one liners were phenomenal, and I thought I could watch you forever. And when you were cancelled and brought back, I lept with anticipation as I awaited new episodes. Here comes the hard part.

{Sigh}

You're fucking stupid.
You are really the dumbest thing I have ever laid my eyes on. And now, you're so into yourself that you make jokes that aren't even funny. WE GET IT, Peter and the chicken hate each other and the old guy wants to fuck children. Great. I think the problem is that I've outgrown you, and well, I'm done. I just can't fucking do it anymore. You are as bad as Date Movie, or Epic Movie, or Super Hero Movie, but you think you're clever, which is really the pathetic part about it.
Why don't you have storylines? I'm just wondering. Why is everything about setting up little quippy one-liners. That could probably fix your problem all together. Anyways, I gotta go. We had a lot of fun, and I'll still be around. Simpsons are on around the same time.

Always
Eric

My 'Blowhard' Blog

GFUNK — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 16:57:30 GMT

As my 24th birthday steadily approaches I am continually reminded by our society that I am no longer the young adolescent I so wish to be. Clothes are not marketed toward me, pop music is no longer being crammed down my throat, and teen movies just make me scratch my head in disbelief (that same thing also happened at times while I was a teenager).

I am straddling that fine line between going to the bar on a Friday or getting a good nights rest. House parties have been replaced with small group hang outs and relaxing nights while I watch the fun, social, easily approachable female community begin to shrink.

Gone are the days of American Eagle and Abercrombie and Fitch - the polo�s and button up shirts of my age group,

In are hoodies and t shirts with dumb sayings and weird designs.

The faded jeans of my youth have been replaced with girl jeans. Fucking girl jeans.

Their music leaves a melodramatic ring in my ears that screams of years and years of oppression set forth by the record companies. Their quest for instant gratification has only helped to manufacture more and more one hit wonders. I believe that the one thing that could allow generations to relate (music) has been completely lost on this new sector of the American public.

I am left with such a displeased feeling to see these new 18 year old hipsters take the main stage. I am having trouble distinguishing if it is because I am jealous that they have grown into the limelight that American Media and Big Business used to shine on my age bracket or if I just truly think that they are all growing up as douche bags.

Upon the proofreading of this blog I came to realize what a grumpy, wretched old man I will become. (I'm really not a Negative Nancy.)

Debunking HotShot�s �Obama Email Scam�

GFUNK — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 03:59:10 GMT

I understand that politics is a very touchy subject and it is easy to push peoples buttons. I respect the opinions of others as long as they have facts to support there statements.

The blog and viewpoint in question (HotShot70's Who is Barrack Obama) is nothing more than an Email Chain Letter that was copied and pasted from an Inbox onto an Irisblog. There are no facts relating to the statements other than fictitious word of mouth.

I intend to prove the falsehood of this chain letter. I believe that 99% of the STI community already saw through this scam that may have already infiltrated their inboxes in the same way that they aren�t transferring thousands of dollars to offshore accounts based on promises from Electronic Saudi Arabian Princes.

First, you spelled his name wrong. It is Barack (one R).

Second, the introductory statement of your email claims that this email has been proven true on the popular urban legend website, snopes.com. When in fact, snopes.com claims it is a myth, an urban legend, a bogus report. This can be found by following the below link:
http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/muslim.asp
My argument should end there but I will continue to provide further evidence below.

My next point calls into questions the claim that Barack Obama was sworn in on a copy of the Koran rather than the bible. This is untrue. Senator Obama was sworn in on the bible. There was a politician from Minnesota by the name of Keith Ellison who was sworn into Congress on a copy of the Koran. His story is often confused with that of Obama.

It should also be noted that claims regarding Senator Obama and his supposed disrespect to the Pledge of Allegiance and the American Flag is also fabricated. There are false reports of Obama refusing to show admiration to the flag and snubbing the Pledge of Allegiance. Below is a video tape of Barack Obama leading a session in Washington in the saying of the Pledge of Allegiance.

Other components of your blog claim various information regarding his past. These statements are unfounded and contain no authentication. Many parts of his religious background are just claims meant as a smear campaign to scare a gullible American public.

Below I have another video in which Senator Obama speaks out about these allegations brought on by the so-called truthful email on live TV.

I do not intend to get into a political discussion regarding why I feel Obama is a viable candidate. My only intention was to point out the weakness of the ideas found in the named blog.

Who is Barrack Obama?

hotshot70 — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 23:23:59 GMT

If you do not ever forward anything else, please forward this to all your contacts...it is very scary to think of what could lie ahead for us here in our own United States...better heed this and pray about it and share it.
We checked this out on "snopes.com". It is factual. Check for yourself.

Who is Barack Obama?
Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black MUSLIM from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white Athiest from
Wichita, Kansas.
Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii. When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father returned to Kenya. His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a RADICAL Muslim from Indonesia.
When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocated to Indonesia. Obama attended a MUSLIM school in Jakarta. He also spent two years in a Catholic school.
Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim. He is quick to point out that, "He was once a Muslim, but that he also attended Catholic school."
Obama's political handlers are attempting to make it appear that he is not a radical.
Obama's introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best. In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya soon after the divorce, and never again had any direct
influence over his son's education.
Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta.
Wahabism is the RADICAL ISLAMIC teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world. Since it is politically expedient to be a CHRISTIAN when seeking major
public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background. ALSO, keep in mind that when he was sworn into office he DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but instead the Koran.
Barack Hussein Obama will NOT recite the Pledge of Allegience nor will he show any reverence for our flag. While others place their hands over their hearts, Obama turns his back to the flag and slouches.
Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected presidential candidacy.
The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US from the inside out, what better way to start than at the highest level - through the President of the United States, one of their own.

How Paulo and I met Part II

Melly — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 04:18:07 GMT

Our first real conversation as far as I can remember is when the movie De lovely came out. I am a HUGE Cole Porter fan and he of course loves to blab about movies. If I remember correctly I corrected him on a few issues. Anyways, this is what made me remember him and realize that he wasn't a little Latino guy from South America. I did still think his name was Paulo at this point and that he was probably gay. It made me realize that we did have a lot in common as far as musical taste and intellectual discussions about movies based on true stories. This was just a back and forth conversation on a message board.

Not too long after that, my friend Inga, another Elton fan that I talked to on a daily basis, started to harass me to go into the chat room at the message board. I resisted because I really don't care for chat rooms too much, but eventually gave in and joined her in the chat room on a few occasions. This is when I realized that Paul wasn't a gay man. He was in the chat room (all women in there, but him) being a complete pervert. If you didn't know this, Elton fans are extreme perverts and there is a lot of same sex flirting and such especially among the women. I couldn't believe some of the shit he was saying to my friends. Inga and I were watching them and commenting about what pervs they were in our private IM window. It got so retarded after a few times that I actually quit going in and told Inga that I wasn't into cybering in a chat room. She agreed with me and quit going in there too. I can't remember exactly what they were doing, but it was some kind of fantasy orgy where Paul transported magically "flying around the world" and servicing these female friends of mine. He is so going to kick my ass for writing about this. It makes him blush to this day that I actually witnessed this perversion of him before he really knew me. :hysterical:

How Paulo and I met Part I

Melly — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 04:16:53 GMT

I thought with the wedding coming up in a couple of weeks, some of you would find this epic story somewhat entertaining. I will keep each part short because I get distracted easily......... oh look a kitty..... as do probably most of the members here...... wow look a shiny dime, how purty!!

I have been a member and moderator of one of Elton John's main sites for many years. I won't tell you which one because I am a cunt and don't want a bunch of trolls that I would have to ban, coming over there and acting like cockfaces. As message boards do, this one has at various times had split-off boards form because members pissed at the original board. (much like the R&F community) Most of these end up being private, by invitation only boards because they want to keep the assholes out. During one such split, I was invited over to a private Elton board that I posted at here and there, but didn't really pay too much attention to. I posted and read every once it a while when I was bored.

Most of the members at this particular private board were women, and the few men that were there, I assumed were all gay. There was a guy that logged in as paulo. In my mind I figured that he was probably some little Latino guy named Paulo from South America or something. (there are a LOT of international members at these Elton boards) I never really paid too much attention to him. He never mentioned being on a radio show. He just blabbed about movies and music for the most part.

Changes we can use...

Iris From Bay Ridge — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 07:41:23 GMT

This is Iris calling with the news you can use...

People do not want to be told how they can and cannot have fun. All it does is chase people away. I am putting an end to that now.

The "new post" link and "top 25" thread listings will display all categories including the fun counting and picture threads. From now on people have their fun how they want to as long as it is in the right forum and on topic. Unless they are only here to cause trouble.

Deliberate drama will be moved to the dump room section once it is deemed that it has gotten out of hand. Deliberate derailing will be discouraged in the discussion forums, and encouraged in the post whoring forums.

I'm gonna hang up and go listen to myself now, see-ya.
