Whatever happened to smart crooks like John Dillinger? Curse that woman in the red dress

Can you imagine being in times square on VJ day? Of course I would be stuck with a DC Tom, ruining the party by pointing out continually it's not a real victory, after all. But it made me think of Marv's SB quote 'where else would you rather be than right here, right now?' Well Marv, times square on VJ day.

Not always. I flipped a 4 wheeler once. Pain was so bad in my back I really thought I was going into shock. Was taken to a rural clinic, ck'd out to the point it was determined I didn't need a medivac and given pain pills. Get back to civilization and go to what I thought was a real doctor[he has a office in a hospital must be a real Doctor, right?] Well he gives me a quick look over and 2 weeks of flex-a something[pain pills]. Well after 2 weeks of pain pills I felt I could stop them, and immediately noticed something odd. When I sat in a car seat I could feel pressure on my spine, like there was a roll of coins taped there. So I go look at my back in the mirror, and sure enough there was a bulge there on my spine. Go back to to this "Doctor" and point out the bulge in my spine. He dismisses it, saying it is the result of arthritis due to smoking. Me-"do you remember the beginning of this story, that started when I flipped a 4 wheeler?" I insisted on a X-ray. Guess what? two crushed vertebrae. It turned out he never got to be a MD, just enough schooling to practice medicine. Bottom line he missed a visible broken back. I will never go to anyone that is not a MD.

You are being far to kind.

Will they have Lionel Richie?

Wow. I could spend 3 hours looking at those. I wonder if those small tanks where special built for jungle fighting.

I thought it was Zionist bankers in Switzerland? The connection to the Pats* is obvious to those who know how to look.

In the footage it was simple. The Americans had set up a loud speaker with a Japanese speaker assuring them they would be treated decently. Rather than forcing them at gunpoint, the only way to have stopped them would be to shoot them. They simply ran at the cliff and jumped over. Remember, this is actual, on the scene footage.

Unbelievable. Actual footage of Japanese civilians jumping off a 200 hundred foot Cliff on Saipan to avoid US capture. What a culture.

More dumpster diving. Vick, McNabb, Culpepper. Any more washed up and/or psychotic QB's we can go after?

If only Tom Hanks had been there. What's really weird is I live next to a Army shooting range, and the whole time I've been watching the series this morning they have been shooting what sounds like .50 cal's. Talk about the ultimate surround sound.

10 hour series all actual war film shot originally in color, from the Pacific to Europe to Africa. HC is running all 10 together right now. Incredible footage. Anybody ever see it?

Honest to God they pulled her skin so tight I think her jaw is out of alignment. Never a looker, should have just grown old gracefully.

3 pages on shaving? What easy lives we have.

Till he sends you to a specialist.

I look at it as a seat belt law taken to the 10th power. We know what is best for you, obey or pay the fine.

I have not Read anything yet along these lines, but I am sure it will be coming. I remember when the super secret Hillery plan was a current issue,There was was quite a bit of politician talk about the theme of since WE are paying for your HC, it gives us the right to more deeply regulate your lifestyle. No more smoking, drinking, hang gliding, eating food not on the approved list, etc etc. After all WE are paying for your health care and have the right to look after our interests. Oh well, maybe when it Hits's BO's desk he will revert to old habit's and write "present" instead of signing it.

Damn you just beat me.

How did you miss property tax? And school tax for people with no kids?

I thought of that 40 years ago when I first read the books.

I got two feet of snow

You give me the creeps, man.

Who invited you?

Yes it is. Who determined the cost of the damages? I [Wal Mart] can pull a figure out of my hat with no proof? Come on.

Well, he could have you get it but then he would be charged handling
