I dunno, I kinda like Amy Goodman. She's not exactly the most happy go lucky person in the world, but who wants to be all chipper first thing in the morning anyhow. Those perky morning news hosts cracking goofball puns at 5am must all be on coke or something.

I hope that the mods realize that by moving this thread into Monkey Biz they are due to get a big bruising from the gods of the web.

Dude, I'm the exact opposite! White bread toasts so nice.

very true, but i always feel guilty like "wheat bread is better for you. i should be eating wheat." which the whole argument is ridiculous anyways, because i'm not rich enough to buy two different kinds of bread and i usually toast my sandwiches anyways...

not a fan of rye bread.

I JUST DROPPED IN TO TELL YOU PEOPLE THAT I'M STILL NOT HANGING OUT HERE. NO, DON'T TRY TO STOP ME FROM... NOT COMING HERE. I REALLY MEAN IT.

Do you realise how much of a fucking idiot you are? Seriously, take a few steps back, take a good, hard, objective look at how you must appear to us.

Oh, enjoy your snack. It's the last one you'll get from me. Idiot.

Right, I got distracted. Sorry.

So, who likes raisin bread? Man, a couple toasted slices of that with just butter on it is so awesome with a cup of coffee first thing in the morning.

I am a supporter of "Democracy Now!" Did anybody hear the bit where Amy Goodmand somehow managed to get on the phone with Bill Clinton to bust his balls for a while? It was awesome, although I must say I was impressed with how Clinton handled it. He's a shrewd slick guy.

I'm a big fan of raisin bread. In fact, I can't think of a dough basked product with fruit in it I don't like.

But raisin bread is awesome, especially toasted, with a thin layer of butter on it, and with cinnamon sprinkled on top.

I like sourdough, which is white colored but not really what people mean when they say white bread.

Sourdough rules! It's alive! Until you put it in a really hot oven. My dad made a mean sour loaf. Hot out of the oven with a good deal of butter was bliss. He got some starter from a man in Maine in the 60s. Not sure if it's still alive these days.

This looks vaguely like a mixture of snot, vomit, semen, and... well, just those three things.

And Song Fight! is not owned and operated by its membership. Okay. So uh bye.

Democracy Now!, the syndicated program, isn't my cup of tea. We air it I think three times a day at KUOI, and to me it just sounds like a bunch of unreasonable whiners that want to complain about everything and have no solutions for their problems. Hey, kind of like this guy, oust the mods. What a funny coincidence.

I'm a liberal, but Democracy Now!, the program and the thread, bugs me.

When I went to Hawaii a few years back, I had some purple bread. My family wouldn't eat it, but I was putting that stuff back. If you ever have the chance to eat some purple bread, do it. You will not be disappointed.
