The challenge: to make something of the above photo.

RidesAPaleHorse answered the challenge.

Here's RAPH's version:



"I'm sick, I tell you...."

I don't know.

Looks like Les, the guy I went to high school with...

Networks Scramble to Find Quality

It seemed the new TV season had just started, then, suddenly, the stream of new episodes threatened to run dry.

For the most part, you can relax for the rest of the month. Even with TV writers on strike, most of your favorite comedy and drama series have episodes on tap through November, and even beyond. But a few will be in reruns all too soon.

Like an NGO: Rushing Aid To the Bolivian Prostitutes

When the problem is "prostitutes sew their mouths shut", the solution is "RidesAPaleHorse ". The sympathetic sort, RAPH offered the above solution and some kind words.

Maybe these girls should take a tip from the lefties that go on "hunger strikes" here. Makes it a bit easier to eat when no one is looking.

More on the sewing abilities of the world's oldest profession from Reuters:

Prostitutes in the Bolivian city of El Alto sewed their lips together Wednesday as part of a hunger strike to demand that the mayor reopen brothels and bars ordered closed after violent protests by residents last week.

"We are fighting for the right to work and for our families' survival," Lily Cortez, leader of the El Alto Association of Nighttime Workers, told local television.

"Tomorrow we will bury ourselves alive if we are not immediately heard. The mayor will have his conscience to answer to if there are any grave consequences, such as the death of my comrades," she said, surrounded by about 10 prostitutes who had sewn their lips together with thread.

After thinking about it a bit more, RAPH offered additional, if less soothing, words.

Come to think of it........this ain't a bad idea for MOST of the left and....... some on the right.

And then he turned, climbed on his bi-partisan steed and rode off into the sunset. [Cue up the theme from "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly".]

We took a break yesterday for Thrill-Kissers, today it's baseball. RAPH's favorite team, the Colorado Rockies, swept into the World Series for the first time. Here he celebrates the event and we celebrate with him. Baseball is easier to watch than the political process and the strange happenings of World News.

Go Rockies!
