Crap Throwing Monkey

I integrate his diagrams for fun. No kidding, I really do. I'm rather sick that way.

I've got a McGee jersey you can have. It's authentic-looking, right down to the scorch marks from being torched by Michael Clayton last Sunday.

Sounds worse than it is. Parlimentary politics as usual. The Christian Democrats won by a narrow margin with a coalition of two parties that Schroeder says should be considered as two parties (a statement not without logic). Of course, the way he's acting ALL the parties outside the Social Democrats are likely to allign and choose anybody BUT him as Chancellor, so he's rather shooting himself in the foot. But then, I always had him figured for somewhat of an idiot.

Just keep those checks coming every month, and no one else ever has to find out...

Lucky the timing was all that was ill. And don't forget all the other dirt I still have on you, too...

Uhhhh...hopefully not. Or are you a big fan of "The Crying Game".

I have. He's right to be askeered. Especially if you have his phone number.

And Todd Collins was 6-10 in his first year as a starter. But not to worry...

Kerry vs. Jeb? Let's see...I choose...death. I cannot in good conscience vote for an idiot like Kerry...and likewise I cannot in good conscience contribute to the Bush family controlling the White House for 16 of the 24 years starting in 1989. Likewise, the reason I'd never vote for Hillary either. Imagine being a historian looking back on the late 20th-early 21st century and seeing the presidents: Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Bush, Clinton (probably twice). You'd point to those elections and say "That's the moment in time at which the American Empire started to crumble." May as well declare a monarchy if we keep choosing from these two families...

Don't worry. Ed's lived in three places in New Jersey and never been bitten by a dog, so it can't possibly happen to you...

Hmmm... Quantum electrodynamics, the dynamics of spiral galaxies, star formation, the low-energy properties of ceramics, the technical/operational application of air power to military strategy, Soviet operational military theory and practice, one-legged spherical geckology, furniture construction... I know a lot about other stuff, too (investing, abnormal psychology, epidemiology)...but I know others here know as much or more about those than I do. The above are the only topics I can say with a reasonable level of certainty that I'm the most knowledgable on the board.

As long as I've got a face, she's got a place to sit...

It's apparently a super-intelligent butterfly.

That is one of the stupidest things I've heard today. And I've heard a shitload of really stupid things today. And the irony of that whole story is that Dan was rather well known for creating an atmosphere in the newsroom.

If you had my address I'd move.

Per player. TO got fined $10k for his Sharpie incident, as I recall. Had he done it in every game...$160k for the season. Had EVERY SF player worn a Sharpie in their sock for every game...$7.5 million in fines. PLAYER fines. I guess the league could sanction the club itself...but they could certainly take it out on the players.

But you're okay, because you have cowbell...

Uhhhh...actually, it was me who added her name to the fracas, not b.hamready or whatever his name was. But in my defense, I did it to praise Lori, not to bury her. I mean, when some mouth-breathing potato-head says "I'm the smartest football fan in ALL the land!", it's kind of natural to think of her and say "Uhhh...well...no...you're not..."

Interesting how you know that, yet you joined after he left.

Texas: "We've got a hurricane in the Gulf, everyone prepare." Nagin: "We've got a hurricane in the Gulf, everyone come back to New Orleans...oops! I didn't say 'Simon Says'..." Yet another reason I don't think this guy's trying to save his image. He's too stupid to be that Machiavellian.

Now look at these people and tell me the universe was "intelligently designed" and we didn't come from friggin' monkeys.

I was going to mention it, but I thought I had enough already. But yeah...apparently some journalism school dropout doesn't believe that CO2 is a greenhouse gas. And now that I think of it..."reducing pollutants by up to 100%"? In other words, completely eliminating pollutants? So where the hell does the sulfur and nitrogen content of the fuel go upon combustion, Oz?

I'm not even going to comment on the technology, because the article's clearly inaccurate even if you know nothing about the technology. For example: Uh, no...the measure of the effeciency of an engine is NOT what percentage of the fuel is fully burned. Adding oxygen causes a cleaner burn. Adding hydrogen...well, it does nothing if there's not enough oxygen. Actually, it should cause a "dirtier" burn, as the oxygen should preferentially bind to the hydrogen rather than the molecular components of the fuel (i.e. carbon). Ergo, you have even more "carbon corroding the engine..." Except that... So you actually have to refill the unit with distilled water and "other chemicals". Maybe the technology works, maybe it doesn't. I don't know. But that's a REALLY stupid article.

That's precisely my point, though: he's not a competent mayor. He clearly doesn't know how and is not prepared to run a city in any sort of an emergency. So why suddenly should we ascribe his idiotic decisions to Machiavellian motivations when they can just as easily be ascribed to simple brute stupidity like he's shown all along? Hell, I don't even see his blame game as anything but stupidity. "Why is no one acting responsible for this mess!?!?!?!?!?" Uhhh...because it's your responsibility first? That's not manipulative, just dumb. I don't believe the man's trying to dodge his responsibilities...just that he doesn't even remotely know what they are.

LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!
