Spongebob has a gee-raffe uni

I just thought it was worth mentioning another appearance of unicycles
in mass media. I'm sure some of you or your children are familiar with
the television show "Spongebob Squarepants". It was in this show that I
saw Spongebob ride a giraffe unicycle with a paddle wheel tire because
he didn't have a car. It was quite amusing. But, to my dismay, he
threw his uni in a dumpster as soon as he got his car. But THEN, after
one thing and another, he lost the car and then he got his uni back.
Yay!

Just wanted to let all you nice people know. :)

During a ride last month, I passed a father and his two small children
on a bench. As I passed, the child says; " Daddy, Spongebob has a
unicycle".

Lordy, what will they think of next? censoring the bible in case Jesus'
message of love and togetherness encourages "sexual preversions". It's

the episode is actually him trying to get his boating licence!
and if you'll notice, he calls it a bike!!

(sorry, i really really like spongebob)

that, and it makes no sense. it looks like a giraffe unicycle, but
there's nothing linking the pedals with the wheel! bah!

but after i saw it the first time, it really compelled me to ride around
in circles going "i'm ready, i'm ready, i'm ready-eady eady eady
edy-edy-edy ready! i'm ready mrs puff!" heh.

You're right, I don't believe it. At least not hook, line, and sinker.
The writer of that article has just as much as an agenda as James Dobson
does, its just from the other side.

The first I saw of this was on NBC evening news. Their story teaser was
the "Spongebob" hook but the actual story was quite balanced, first
stating many conservatives think Dobson over-reached on this one and
make other conservatives look silly. They also interviewed a Dobson
representative who made it clear they have no complaint about the video
itself, rather the pledge and the materials promoted on the site and
materials.

Almost every other media story I have seen has gone after the
"Spongebob" angle.

'Here' (http://tinyurl.com/6hfq5) is Dobson's response. You may not
agree with him but at least hear it straight from the horse's mouth.

This really belonged in JC from the start and should be moved there if
anyone really wants to continue the discussion.


Back On Thread Topic: My son had his birthday last week. He got his room
painted sponge-bob yellow (yellow is his favorite color), Sponge Bob
stickers on the wall and the complete Sponge Bob set of sheets, pillow
case, and comforter for his bed.:cool:

This one's too funny to leave alone.

Uh, it's a cartoon.

The sponge wears pants. And talks. Bah.

Meanwhile, the uni could have a shaft drive. They used to make bikes
like that.

But whatever the drivetrain, that wheel won't get you anywhere
underwater. It would just churn around. Even if it did provide
propulsion, the wheel would be in front with the rider trailing behind
it.

Ever try to ride underwater? You really need to lean forward a *lot* for
the wheel's traction to push your body through the water. That's on a
regular uni. A giraffe would be even more extreme. Bah.

David Ramos told me that for this picture:
http://www.unicycling.com/things/index.htm#8
it was hard enough just to get his neutrally bouyant body to line up
above the unicycle. He was nothing like sitting on it...

The anti-gay community needs to get over itself and learn to let people
live, even if it's in ways they don't approve of. If they're messing
with *your* church, fight the battle on the front steps. Stop telling
people with other beliefs how to live.

And that is exactly what the right wingers want you to say, and what
they want you to do.

I say no way.

I'm a total Left-wing Liberal and I can't stand Bush and I think all
this extreme religious right wing lunatic stuff is a load of rubbish.
(Believe me, they all know it themselves). I'm also an athiest, but if I
remember my Irish Catholic upbringing correctly, this current trend of
holy-roller wackoism has nothing to do with real Christianity because it
has everything to do with power and controlling people's lives.
Intolerence = power, that is the mindset of the extreme right winger.

But that's a whole other argument and I don't want to get into it here.
The point of this post is one word: STAY.

You are a citizen, and as much as the political climate seems unfriendly
to those who oppose the current administration, your fellow citizens
need you to hold your ground and disagree.
Get involved with the opposition. Write letters to newspapers. Go to
demonstrations. Get involved. Believe it or not, half this country hates
Bush. Don't despair. In five years you will be old enough to vote. Use
it. My son is also 13--he can't wait to vote--one of these days it will
be payback time, and it will be unlike anything the world has ever seen
and it will all happen in the voting both when we throw these gangsters
out.

The right wingers love to snicker and say "Go on liberal, leave" but I
just laugh at them. This country does not belong to them. The thought of
leaving or giving up my citizenship has never passed my mind. I'm here
to stay, and I hope I'm like a thorn in their dumb-ass good old boy Rush
Limbaugh sides.

Resist--it feels a hell of a lot better than packing your bags.

Way to go!
And to take this thread even further from RSU--great picture of Sid on
your avatar!
I still kick myself because I had a chance to see him play at Max's
Kansas City years ago when he did some solo gigs with members of the New
York Dolls--and I missed it for the stupidest reasons.
I DID see the Sex Pistols, but with Glen on Bass--it was still utterly
great...

I really like your use of Bah.

what king of giraffe is that? Looks like it could have connections to a
KH but I have no idea as far as the seat goes.

Papa Bear rides a giraffe too, I saw the opening credits a couple weeks
ago, the family were all out on bikes 'cept papa... Oh, and for those
who watch "Drawn Together", Spanky Hamm rides a uni...

Oh, and I said I would leave, and I did leave... the best part is
having left, I can still vote! Ha ha, suckers! Now I just got to learn
French...

Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total
obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and
through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see
its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will
remain.
