I am sure that Trent Frank and other like minded Reps think this should be a test to determine if women are raped have becomed pregnant.......only Repubs can preform the test cause they would be the only ones who could render an honest judgement.

Do you hold the same degree of compassion for your prezes that have slaughtered millions, Tsars? How about all the women that have been raped by invading US hordes?

How do you feel about your tax dollars providing them with pensions?

@JTT,

Gee, no answer from Tsarstepan. I wonder why. It's truly surprising.

Maybe Joe(I know what's right)Nation will step to the plate.

@Joe Nation,

There was some movie 20-30 years ago about the pirate radio stations and the characters who lived and broadcast into Britain. Okay, who remembers the story?

I couldn't quickly figure out where to put this interesting video, so I'm putting it here. It's odd only in that I've never heard of this happening in the US. (Maybe it does and I don't know about it)

Prison inmates in Peru stage an aerobics show, which attempts to break the world record for the most people dancing in a prison. An estimated 1,200 prisoners at the overcrowded Lurigancho prison in Lima turn out their best moves to the beats of reggaeton and merengue. According to the World Record Academy, a Philippines prison holds the current record for the most inmates dancing simultaneously in the same place

Yesterday we took a trip to Solomon's Castle. It is in the middle of.....................nowhere. As we were warned, the GPS will take you into an orange grove, but fortunately, there was a worker who knew where we wanted to go, and helped us.

The castle is built of the backs of printing plates, so it is all silver. Solomon is an artist, and a weird one at that. Most of the stuff that he made is from scraps of one thing or another. He built a replica of a 16th century galleon, which sits on pilings in a swamp. There is a restaurant there, and the food is pretty good.

If you are ever in Florida, and want to see something really different, check this out.

@farmerman,

Yes, yes - thats it. They did it so they didn't have to follow some oppressive Great Britain radio station laws. That is about all I can remember.

@Ragman,

It's about an hour for me. I think that it is sort of east of Bradenton, in the boonies. It is really a very interesting site. I had been there about ten years ago, during the season. The place was crawling with tourists. This week it was rather quiet. It closes in July- September.

What was nice was that after we took the tour, we asked the artist's (5th) wife if we could go back in and take some pictures. She let us, which was very nice of her.
