So it appears that a conservative group has written to Justin Timberlake asking him to "keep it clean" when he performs at the Superbowl. Honestly, I can't get into the ultra conservative brain. I'm not saying that I would proactively show my young kid a picture of Janet Jackson's bare boob, but if my kids had actually noticed the boob while watching the halftime show (and back in those days, we hosted a Superbowl party for all the neighborhood kids every year)...which happened so fast that even I didn't notice it...I probably would have laughed, and the kids would probably have laughed. What is it that makes these people so uptight that they have devoted their efforts to making sure that Justin Timberlake has a "clean" halftime show, or that Ben and Jerry don't name their ice cream "schweddy balls"?

Can't Timberlake just tell them to "Bite me?" I think he's financially well off enough to not worry too much about cowtowing to political or religious pressures.

Re: The Uptight Conservative Mind
The "Schweddy Balls" example is a poor one since traditionally the gloves are more off after the 10:00 hour.
The question is, "how far do you want to push the envelope?" Perhaps you'd be okay with JT dry humping Lady Gaga on stage at the half time show. Hey, it's taking artistic risks! Maybe insertion is cool too, just as long as it's not a close up. I don't think asking someone to "keep it clean" after a history of not really keeping it clean is asking too much. (And I am far from a prude)

Just for that, for next year's half time show, I'm going to recommend that Jerry Falwell read from Gideon's Bible from his room at the Holiday Inn.

I'll withhold my highly inappropriate taco comment out of respect for Blondy.

I know, but I have a hard time saying "hairy taco" in front of a woman. Oops! Sorry Blondy.

I was actually talking about the One Million Uptight Moms losing their shit over the Ben and Jerry's Schweddy Balls ice cream flavor, not the SNL skit.
You forgot to mention Prince and his phallic guitar...which didn't bother me either.
The letter to Justin said "The fallout of your performance during Super Bowl XXXVIII has left an indelible mark. " Really? My point is more that I would have to be far, far more offended to be compelled to take some kind of formal action. And frankly, I'm more offended by Tim Tebow praying in the end zone than I would be by JT dry humping Lady Gaga, so "clean" is kinda in the eye of the beholder.

Remember in the sexual assault discussion where I mentioned my first job and my "old man friend", who I found hysterical. Our company was in a building of office suites, and the bathroom was down the hall...which we called "DTH". "Going DTH". He referred to it as "going to drain your taco." Rob's characterization of me is off a bit. Not sure I have a filthier mind...rather, I'm extremely accepting of other dirty minds.

Oh Jesus Christ get off your high horse. If they asked you to ass fuck Jen Carfagno during the Super Bowl halftime show the only question you'd have is whether or not you had to wear a condom.

Abrams maybe. Carfagno is a romantic candle-lit dinner type...in a sound-proof room.

You're "offended" by a man praying, not trying to indoctrinate you, but simply praying, but not by a public display of sex on a program that children are watching? Why am I not surprised.

Actually, I'm not offended by either. Being "more offended" by something that I'm not offended by suggests that there's little to no offense. No, I wasn't horrified by Janet, nor was I horrified by Prince's phallic guitar. They're not Swank.
There was a time that Elvis' girating hips were considered public displays of sex.

Re: The Uptight Conservative Mind
All I know is that Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction is likely the biggest nothing ever on network TV. Geez, unless you slow it down to a frame by frame analysis, like a play at the plate, you can't see shit ..believe me, I know

So you're suggesting that the "fallout" from boobgate did NOT leave an "indelible mark" as the uptight suggest? The most offensive thing about that halftime performance was the performance itself. I just rewatched it, and it was flat out awful.
Tonight's halftime performance showed the Prince phallic guitar incident. One million uptight moms must have lost their shit.
