    I was expecting you to post the Hayden Panettiere endorsement video.

    Go Opie.

    I always thought Howard was a bit over-praised as a director, but it’s nice to see him put in his time. BTW – to borrow from Eddie Murphy’s SNL character Raheem Abdul Mohammed “Opie Cunningham – sex machine!”

    Opie Taylor has been the absolute bane of my redheaded existence.

    But that was truly awesome.

    This is one of those times when something turns out to be as it should be and my world view is upheld. Another such time was when I read that Karl Rove is not a believer, in the religion-and-God sense.

    If Obama doesn’t win, he should threaten to move to Portugal. You know, down South America way.

    Farris, you are making less sense than usual today.

    Duros: Run , don’t walk, to your nearest Best Buy and pick up all 3 seasons of Arrested Development starring … Ron Howard!

    You’ll be glad you did.

    “Duros: Run , don’t walk, to your nearest Best Buy and pick up all 3 seasons of Arrested Development starring … Ron Howard!”

    Hopefully, they will be able to retain Howard for the planned AD film.

    I always thought Howard was a bit over-praised as a director

    Night Shift is the greatest English language film of The Post-War Era.

    Portugal?!?!? South America?!?!?!?!
    SaveFarris, have you ever bothered to pick up a globe, an atlas or use Google Earth!!!!!!!!! Not even the correct hemisphere and that was a 50-50 shot. Never mind you picked the wrong continent. I don’t blame the educators, I blame the politicians that force the cuts to our education system that turns out morons like SaveFarris!!

    Xeneizeusa,

    I think SaveFerris was referring to a joke made on the TV show Arrested Development, of which Ron Howard was the narrator.

    Great!
    Clearly and well stated, and NOT “hard sell”!

    Thank you, Ron!! … & Andy, & Henry!!!

    Now, let’s hope that the electorate gets the message, and elects Obama!!

  18. Xeneizeusa says:

    KXB, if this is a fact then I stand down. I did not recognize the joke, I never watched Arrested Development and missed the reference. But, the reason I jumped up so much is that I have heard people in the past place Portugal in South America only because Brazilians speak Portuguese?!?!?! I am always troubled with fellow Americans that can’t find their way around a globe or a USA map. But if it indeed was a joke I do say, SaveFerris…my bad!

    From the votes we have registered it looks like Obama has a home run.
