Hi, it's me, Phil Spector's hair! Back in the day, Phil was famous for creating the "Wall of Sound," but nowadays he's better known for me, the Giant Balloon of Hair. And for shooting chicks, but we're not going to talk about that right now.
The truth is, this gig with Phil wasn't my first crack at show biz. I was the star of the very popular TV show "The Prisoner." Here's a pic of me in costume with co-star Patrick McGoohan.
Well, on with the links!
*The Fat Guy looks deep in the heart of the new hit song [CLAP-CLAP-CLAP-CLAP] "Don't Start A Tab In Texas."
*Over at the Gates of Vienna they're a little tired of drunken girls crying wolf about rape and ruining other people's lives. All I can add is that in the last month there've been two cases where the also-drunk-at-the-time guys have saved their own necks by producing videotapes showing extremely willing gals who were now saying they'd been assaulted. Regret does not equal rape. Stop trivializing the word and the crime with drama queen bullshit.
*Who's the Irish dude up in the tree
That all the people wanna see?
LEPRECHAUN!
Can you dig it?
And finally:
*Tim Blair reviews the held-over Up With People show in Paris, the famous "City Alight." That's some fiery performance!
Posted by floridacracker at March 25, 2006 03:04 PMThanks for linking to that story about the 'rape.'
Maybe guys are finally starting to fight back: he's suing her for defamation of character. Of course, he's the one kicked out of school and she's the 'victim.' And instead of telling the girls that alcohol is a biiig problem when you overdo it, they're offering rape defense classes. Uggh.
It's the libertarian group at the school (all ten of them, I guess) who have kept the administration's feet to the fire on this one.

BTW, we had an update with an email from a W&M student. The act in question, the pseudo-rape, is known as "regretted sex". An apropos term.
Update is here:

Good story, Dymphna and Baron.
Posted by: Donnah at March 26, 2006 12:16 AMI guess looking back on those 'craaazzzzyyy college
days' will have a whole new meanng, huh ?
Part of the pennance for filing charges should be an automatic 'couples of note' picture in 'The Remnant'
and obligatory follow-up section in the school's
annual.
That would be awesome.
Since he can't take it out of anybody's hide, the boy at W&M is suing the hell out of them for defamation for publishing his name as a rapist.
