  1. I am reminded of a former president making a cross out of stones on a beach in France. Course, the beach didn't have any stones...
  2. If Bush walked on water and brought the dead back to life, Dr. K and others would be hearing bitching about Bush pandering to religious conservatives. So it goes...
  3. Oh look, someone from the Lollipop Guild made a funny!
  4. "By the way Gavin, the guy who spewed that particular garbage is with Vison America in case you want to sign up." Hypocrite thy name is Mickey. No need to take a bow, just go !@#$ yourself.
  5. You could get that satillite radio and listen to the game. You gotta go though, my Pops has told me one of his biggest regrets was not going to more of my little league, etc games. I won't make that mistake with my boy...
  6. I admit, it does sound like Bush hired the wrong men for the job and he should take some serious heat for it. FEMA should be headed by ex-military used to giving orders and having them obeyed. Hell, it should be quasi-military in nature anyway, seeing how every natural disaster requires calling in the troops.
  7. The makers of the pyramids perhaps? So would you download your consciousness if the technology became available?
  8. Wow, if that's your version of deep thinking then your clients are paying waaaaay too much. One gets better reasoned arguments on the playground. Barely passed the bar, huh?
  9. The right-wingnuts and their circle jerk cannot compete with the left-wingnuts and their group fellatio and cornholing...
  10. Intelligent Design= A superior conciousness is able to bend nature to it's willl. Rivers can be diverted or contained, wetlands can be drained, and even shifting ground can be built upon. We will remake nature in the image we desire. If a tragedy occurs then the superior conciousness can traverse any obstacle in it's path, immediately, to rescue all life. Emotion rules the day. Evolution= Nature is supreme and can be very cruel, unleashing forces that can damage and destroy all life and physical landscapes. Common sense would dictate not to inhabit areas that are dangerous (evolution favors the intelligent, strong). Those that wish to inhabit said areas are at nature's mercy and can become a statistic of evolution (evolution works by eliminating the ignorant, weak, aged) should tragedy occur. Cold logic prevails every time. *** Thinking back on our discussions on intelligent design vs. evolution I wondered to myself if perhaps the events of Katrina have caused any to rethink what should be taught in classrooms? Don't worry, I expect crickets. This requires deeper thinking and can't be reduced to talking points or BUSH BAD.
  11. I couldn't tell you who he is either. Just means we are both older than 20 I guess...
  12. You dumbass, don't you know every President is issued a magic wand when they assume office? If everything isn't made right immediately, it obviously means the President is a racist and doesn't want to wave his magic wand for black people...
  13. Cut Reed loose and move on.
  14. I know it's changed mine. I wouldn't say I was a speed demon before, but if I had a place to be I liked to get there quickly. Very heavy foot on the gas. Now I accelerate as smoothly and gently as I can. Our car has an average MPG gauge and my wife and I try to see who can get the best mileage on it. I'm putting around town now like a Shriner on a go-cart...
  15. Where is the blame for the state government of Louisiana in this fiasco? For the city government of New Orleans? Seeing as how they actually live in these areas shouldn't they be taking the heat for not having better systems in dealing with the aftermath? What in the hell is the federal government supposed to do except stroke checks?
  16. Ultimately it's her decision. I would never try to 'rule' the old lady and forbid her to go or anything like that. If it were my wife, I'd be a selfish prick and ask her not to go. Our one year old son needs his mommy. If we were childless or our son was grown maybe I'd feel differrent...
  17. Hoax or not, it's probably not far off from describing reality there right now...
  18. The poor could always join the Peace Corps...
  19. She's definitely a loon no question, but she has a point about the National Guard. The US should either have a bigger standing army or else have a compulsory year of service for high school grads in some sort of service organization.
  20. How to deal with looters? Shoot to kill.
  21. Artifical womb story The ramifications of this potential technology are vast and at the same time both great and terrible. A lot of us may actually see this in our lifetime. It's hard to wrap my mind around...
  22. Democrat Party Slogan for years: Vote early, vote often. Now I should get upset when Republicans are caught doing it? Please. All's fair in love,war, and politics...
  23. Do you have a cat and a dog that sing whenever he says that?
