This you have to read from start to finish.

The only person I am aware of with a longer list of speech preparation demands is Bob Murphy.

    before posting links such as this, please ask in advance if it ok with me. I would enjoy that. Especially if there is folk dancing.

  3. That almost had me crying, and I'm only 25% through it. Please don't post these when I am sleepy.

    (Also, I just ask for travel expenses and M&Ms with the red ones removed.)

  6. Humorous, but nonetheless deeply disturbing, insight into the mind of a leftist.

    As effective as Atlas Shrugged in its own way.

  9. Amazing. I wonder if his list of demands is open source. I might use a variation of it on a dating site.

    Some of them are pretty funny. Foo Fighters '00 rider is good. Van Halen was asking for the brown M&Ms to be removed back in '82.
