Who's Mama Pecararo? I used to know a girl in grammer school with that last name.

Some new additions to that Bush Movie oliver stone is directing.

Powers Booth would make a good Cheney. His VP role on 24 was a takeoff of Cheney, and with some grey hair he could pull it off. And possibly Alec Baldwin for Rumsfeld. -
Nothing says your campaign is humming right along...
PastaJoe replied to KD in CA's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Our current president has dispelled the theory that running a great campaign equates to being ready to lead and picking a competent staff as president. -

How can you criticize someone else's analysis when yours is so off base. Max and Kalinin are defensive liabilities who have had enough time to grow but have not done so, and the team would be better off using their high salaries on other players. Lydman and Hecht are two of the teams best defensive players, which is why they get so much ice time against the other teams top lines. Adam Dennis is an average goalie at best, I don't know where you get the idea he's the #1 AHL goalie prospect. He's not even the Sabres #1 prospect. That's Swedish goalie Jhonas Enroth. Connelly is a broken china doll, the limited time they get from him isn't worth the money or the roster spot. The reality is that the Sabres let top players go even after they were getting the extra revenue from going deep into the playoffs the last couple of years, let alone try to sign top free agents. Now with no playoff revenue, the best we can hope for are new contracts for Pomminville and Miller, a restocking of a depleated minor league roster to build for the future, the addition of a couple of 3rd line players with some grit, and further growth of the core players.

Given that Obama is outspending her by 2-3 times in Penn., it's expected that the race would tighten. I realize that given the supression of the Florida and Michigan primaries, and superdelegates jumping on the bandwagon, the nomination is pretty much Obama's to lose. But as long as there's a chance, Hillary should stay in the race.

Astronomers have been tracking the larger asteroids for some time now, and can calculate ahead of time when one is on an impact trajectory, thus being able to more accurately predict if and when it will occur. And using mirrors to heat up an asteroid or ramming it with an unmanned spacecraft to change it's trajectory are the current preferred methods. http://space.newscientist.com/article/dn12...-asteroids.html The issue of global warming and man's influence on it is less predictible since it's unprecedented, and therefore we have to assume some worst case scientific scenarios to side with caution. Better to do too much than too little.

How Many People Do You Know That Believe The Earth
PastaJoe replied to Steely Dan's topic in Off the Wall Archives
I saw a news story last week about the Creationist museum, where families take their kids to learn about the "facts" of creationist theory. It might be in Missouri. It showed a group of kids answering questions from a museum guide. "How do we know that the earth is 6,000 years old?", he asked. A kid answered, "Because the Bible says it was, and the Bible tells the truth". The museum has dioramas showing how humans and dinosaurs lived at the same time. The curators were asked by the reporter about the fact that dinosaur and human remains have never been found at the same levels of excavated sediments. They replied that there are some facts that do conflict with creationism, but they don't dwell on them. -

Tiger Woods swears on the golf course
PastaJoe replied to stevestojan's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Now photographers are going to be competing to see who upsets Tiger enough to get hit with a club, so they can then sue him for millions. If a slight noise is such a distraction, I wonder why they haven't tried putting in earplugs when they swing. -
Season Opener: NFC East showdown, Redsucks at Giants
PastaJoe replied to BillsWatch's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm suprised they didn't do the reverse and move the convention up earlier. How's McCain going to stay up that late? -
FYI: Rule changes under consideration
PastaJoe replied to stuckincincy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't agree with making all facemask penalties 15 yards. An accidental grab and release is not the same as holding and twisting a player's head. -
I think part of his problem is that he's mentally and physically fatigued. If they had a decent backup who they could put in for 15-20 games with confidence, and a couple games in the past month, he would be fresher. Look at how many games have gone to OT and SO. I'm suprised how bad TBo has been when he's played. Miller is making mental mistakes, not playing the angles properly. Like the first goal last night, that is a shot most goalies should stop; shooter forced wide and shooting from above the faceoff dot. It's discouraging to defensemen when they play it right and the goalie doesn't make that save. But I think his play is an effect of how the team has played, not the root cause of the problem. The main problem was expecting the 2nd and 3rd line players to play like 1st and 2nd line players before they were ready, and the lack of leadership that Drury provided on and off the ice. And having Campbell and Spacek out of the lineup was the beginning of the recent slide.

Putting aside Darin's fascination with my genitalia, my take on the issue is that she made a dumb exaggeration of the facts in an attempt to show she's as tough as the guys. It was unnecessary and is now another distraction from the real issues. Whether it's this, McCain's Iran-al Quada senior moments, or Obama's pastor disaster, there's still alot of time to see who's going to make the biggest gaffes of the campaign.

Faux conservatives show no respect for the process
PastaJoe replied to Adam's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Here's a novel idea. How about only allowing Democrats to vote in the Democrat primaries, and only Republicans in the Republican primaries. If people aren't willing to commit to a party, then they shouldn't have a say in who that party nominates for the general election. Don't like the choices, then start your own party. -
Yet she still beats or at worst ties McCain in the latest national polls.

Oooh, you're racist! You're as bad as Obama's grandmother! But you're not sexist, because attacks on Hillary have become acceptable in the mainstream.

As long as they don't call at 4:30pm, that's when the senior early bird dinner specials are.

It's not suprising he would get confused, given how supporters of the Iraq occupation like to blur the lines and equate all extremists to al-Quada, even those with local grievences and no threat to the U.S..

To use your analogy, if I'm a white guy that got hit by the black guy's punch, but not the white guy who threw the first punch, then he just assaulted me. If I'm the white guy who lost out on a job because of a quota system for minorities, when I'm not the one who discriminated against minorities in the past, then I've been discriminated against. PC talk doesn't change the facts.
