Watch The End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones if you get a chance. Musical genius! Even shows his "God Bless President Bush" when they were inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame. My husband, who was a child of the 60's won't let listen to them when he's in the same room unless it's with my MP3 player. He says they're too discordant and you can't understand what they're saying.

"Blitzkrieg Bop" is pretty good . . . and I can sorta understand what they're singing.

I listen to the Ramones when I clean my abode.  The music gets the old heart going.

Funny, I can understand everything they are saying.  :-)

I have Ramones "Anthology" on CD.  It has all my favorites except "We're a Happy Family"

I really like that one.

When I was growing up, the "cool kids" hung out late, disrespected authority in numerous minor ways, and smoked cigarettes.  My parents didn't raise me that way.  So, even though I was picked on pretty good as a HSer, I didn't exactly aspire to be "cool."  (What I aspired to do was to get into some hot girl's pants, but that wasn't happening.)

Now, there's people who look up to me at work and at the day care (of my daughter).  Why, I haven't the slightest.  I just go on going on and I'm not really that concerned about images.  Come to think of it, I like being who I am.  I'm glad that there's only one of me, though.  If there were clones of me, I'd have to hunt them down and kill them--I don't like competition.  :evillaugh: :tongue: :beer:

.....And lefty moonbats will never be attractive.

All the comments were spot on.  Cool comes from self confidence and the knowledge that you are on the right side of things.

Steve McQueen, nah he wasn't cool.  Cary Grant?  Nope.  How about Walt or Roy Disney?  Nope, they weren't cool either.

As if "Cool" is something to aspire to?

They wouldn't know "cool" if it bit them on their lazy arse.

That was a serious thread at DU?  Friggin hell.  The dow plumets close to 6,000 today and they are flouting about how "cool" dems are?  That just shows how incredibly ill-equipped they truly are to handle anything remotely close to running a country.  Damn.

Speaking strictly for myself, I am so uncool, I am actually cool. If I do say so, myself.

Robert Duvall, James Woods, Dennis Hopper, Chuck Norris...

Nope.  Not cool.

Dennis Hopper? Seriously? Got documentation? I thought was way out left. Maybe his movies led me to think that.

Switch to Conservatism:
After emerging from rehab in 1980, Hopper became interested in politics. He has said that he was fed up with the direction the country was going under the Democrats and decided that Republicans needed to return to power. He began to espouse feelings of less government and more individual freedom, and joined the Republican party, since he believed they best embodied that philosophy. He voted for Reagan in 1984 and for George H.W. Bush in 1988 and 1992. In 2000, he supported George W. Bush for president and in 2004, he not only voted to re-elect Bush, he donated money to the campaign.

http://usconservatives.about.com/od/hollywoodconservatives/p/DennisHopperBIO.htm

He supported McCain early in 2008 but changed his support to the big zero because he did not like Sarah Palin.

I guess he must be gay or something.
