As a practical guide, Kissinger's paper is a model in modern spin. As a tasty treat, we thought it lacked butter. |
Pryan's idea that Flip Wilson essentially created a new world
comic order by being black, vaguely issue-oriented, and accepted
by white society is as cogent as the notion that our current
role as the world's policeman is an unintended consequence of
our international success. We're now as taken for granted as
Tyler Perry is successful despite himself. |
We have to admit that we couldn't follow the premise of this paper, but we had a really good time getting' down. |
The thesis that America's relationship with the Military Industrial Complex is, essentially, a prolonged domestic dispute is both compelling and sad. But does this mean that Canada is, like, some international battered-citizen's shelter? At the very least, we could engage them as our BC buds. |
In an attempt to prove his point about how surreal electoral results can be, Redding spiked the refreshments with Owsley-level acid. As near as we could tell from the paper itself, doing this made as much sense as anything. |
The tunes were catchy and the action camp, but the points deserved a veto. |
Modern medicine meets 'Merican history as Davis argues, controversially and graphically, that lassitude equals death for those suffering from severe physical trauma. Could be, but we all know that true healing happens as a result of lasagna. |
