And here's something from factcheck.org saying that federal subsidies would be available for abortions under a government option or some new private insurance programs.
Wanna Get All Town Hall Angry About Something...? And The Best Commercial Ever Butt-Cheeked
Nobody seemed to be screaming about this guaranteed civil liberty actually being compromised...as opposed to a non-guaranteed liberty actually NOT being compromised.
Need to get up in arms about something? How about:
Voting Machines. Admitted flaws. Just fixed.
No word on whether current voting machines will be updated.
Where are the town-hall screamers about this? Oh...they're busy pretending this isn't true? Gotcha.
Why can't they just pretend that the misinformation about health care reform isn't true, too?
Mario 1-Ups Conan, Shatner Reads A Monologue From Palin III
Sometimes the Internet memes turn out to be internet youyous.
Like many of us, I grew up playing a lot of Super Mario Bros., but every now and then I'm completely blown away by how much the Nintendo culture has become a part of the American psyche.
Apparently the set designer for The Tonight Show is a big Mario fan.
It Took Me Over 20 Hours To Post This, Really. Must'a Been The Rain...
I recently visited the town of Twin Peaks...
... both of them.
If you're familiar with the Lynch-ian creation by (in a purely Lynch-ian twist) director David Lynch, then you might remember the waterfalls in the opening credits.
If you're unfamiliar with the dreamy television series that carries on the darkly twisted tradition of Franz Katakana, then let me tell you this: There are some waterfalls in the opening credits.
Got a minute and thirty? Trust me, it'll be the most serene moment of your digitally-addled day.
Twin Peaks is a fictional town.
Only problem is: Everything inside it... is not.
I present to you Exhibit A:
Or as I like to call it:
Exhibit B:
A Man Who Looks Suspiciously Like Ed Murray Standing Next to Falls That Suspiciously Look Like The Falls From Twin Peaks.
Suspicious Angle #2 (i.e. Suspicious Angle #2)
'Twas at this moment that Ed Murray realized what was 'twasn't once truly 'twas...
(Think that 5 times fast!)
Court is now in session for:
The People of An Imaginary Town v. Twin Peaks is a Real Place and Ed Murray Went There
If you know Ed Murray, then you probably don't know that he is a huge Twin Peaks fan. If this is news to you, then it's probably because Ed Murray has a lot of secrets that he only divulges to his closest baby rabbits.
It was a beautiful day in the first town of Twin Peaks. In the surreal twist that one would expect, the sign welcoming you as you enter the town refers to another town: "Snoqualmie Welcomes You."
As if Snoqualmie, Washington was one of the towns in which Twin Peaks was filmed as opposed to being one-half of the actual, fictional Twin Peaks...
Suddenly, with a flash of light, I realized that I was on a mission.
Good thing I stepped in some fresh mission. I hate to see that stuff go to waste.
I searched high and low only to reach highs and lows...
Then I stumbled upon the very place that the body of Amanda Palmer was found...
Oh, no, wait a second, my bad, Amanda Palmer is the lead singer of alt-awesome band, The Dresden Dolls. (If you have the means, I highly recommend picking their debut album up):
I meant 'The place where the body of Laura Palmer was found.' Sorry.
The Little Man Talking Backwards Village Police reported finding the body of Laura Palmer in this abandoned railyard:
A grisly scene indeed...
A grisly bear indeed...
In search of the truth lurking beneath the surface of this town, I made my way to this huge log.
Where I found this graffiti...
One could say the plot thickens... if one could talk to the log.
At this point, I couldn't stand the beautiful views and the fresh air; it was making me happy... and it's common knowledge that no one ever solved a fictitious crime in a place that didn't exist while they were happy.
I had to eat something. Luckily, I spotted the very imaginary cafe that I was seeking...
You believe this? Here's a picture of me in front of Twede's posing as if to say 'You believe this?'
Predictably, a cup of coffee greeted me at the door.
I ordered a slice of cherry pie.
A grisly pie indeed...
From my seat, I saw a clue... look closely...
If you've ever seen Twin Peaks, you know that pinball machines (like this one barely visible through a small window) don't play a part in the series at all.
And now you know just as much as you did before.
Further exploration led me down a hall; a checkered hall... a checkered past?
A checkered urinal?
Frustrated with my lack of progress in solving a crime I had forgotten about, I sought clues from the Twin Peaks movie, hoping to find some information that would help.
However, I found only this man who claimed to be my friend, "Lance." Apparently, he believes that he told me about this town because he grew up here in North Bend (the other half of Twin Peaks.) He also claims that he's been the one taking pictures of me. I don't know what's in the water here in Twin Peaks... but what a CRAZOID!
Right?! Am I right, ladies?! I'll be here all week, folks, tip your walrus!
At this point, I conceded that my mission was a failure. I had come here hoping to uncover the truth about Laura Palmer's death, but I realized that in order to find that out, I should've just gone to Netflix.
Look for my next blog post after my trip to Netflix, Idaho.
Instead of going straight home, I crossed the street and went to see a movie... both of them.
Both of them.
DELETED SCENE:
There is a man that you can barely make out on the left side of this picture.
He is eating.
And he is wearing a Twin Peaks Sheriff's Department hat.
This guy wearing the hat was the most truthful part of this entire blog. I never really went to this town, nor do I have any pictures to disprove it.
Visiting Twin Peaks didn't happen because Twin Peaks isn't real...
