  1. And instead of going to the podium for their medals, they could all meet up "on the center stage, girls." A while back, two girls lived in the apartment across from me. Late in the evening, they would pose with customer for pictures. Sit in your lap and smile while wearing a t-back. I was kidding a guy at work about his pic of his g/f and he retorted that I had no pic of my g/f. I said I would bring one in. So... you see where this is going.
  2. Historically, my problem. It is amazing the things that people are doing. I love the internet. It's like Jerry Springer with 91% fewer rednecks.
  3. It's my new personal thread. In the past, I have found stuff and posted it with the above title - repeatedly. (If you search for "make this up" and my ID, you'll see what I mean.) To save time, I'm going to keep it in one place. Todays entry? sports (Personally, I still think that this is a spoof piece) Dammit. I could have gotten that many this afternoon. Sure... almost exactly the same. I know... just what you were thinking... almost exactly like rock climbing. (except the implants are softer now) Rats. There goes the entrants from the Pink Palace. I'm wondering if during the finals, they have a "lap dancing" portion of the competition. "Thank you... thank you... Starr. And now, our next contestant... Jade Lexxxus."
  4. The people skills of Hannibal Lechter, the sense of humor of Mark Twain, and the integrity of Bart Simpson.
  5. People hang out with people like them (mostly). So, all her g/fs are tramps too. Eventually, all her friends will run into you and say, "It is soooo terrible how she treated you. We're still friends right? We should hang out..." Knock the bottom out of it. It will get back to her because they will tell everyone that they know. Thinking about past experiences only allows you to relive the pain. Occupy your time and hang out with your friends instead. Nobody is worth it. Let it go.
  6. There is a planet the blinks every time the electricity in my trailer goes off?
  7. Spoken like a true liberal. Kurkova does not have a belly button due to childhood surgery. An obvious analogy to someone who is neither an "insider" or an "outsider". That type of flawed political logic has never held scrutiny. Outsiders cannot get enough consensus to achieve results. Insiders follow the party path to stagnation. I now take up the opportunity to mention Rule 6. Anything that I highlight, bold, color, or underline - must be of vital importance. Rule 7 - I would like to be the first to implement Rule 7 - by saying something obviously over-complimentary to establish myself as the arbiter of all things intellectual, and then retract the compliment. Rule 8 - The Complement of the Compliment - As our angles must sum to 180 degrees mathematically - In order to relate themselves to this jumentous level of communication, following posters should show some type of slathering obeyance. Usually your posts show an intellectual level and I am shocked, to say the least, that you would stoop to this. At least we can address the topic of British or Gay Hopefully, we have cleared this up.
  8. Larry is getting a lot of support. Many people have said that they are behind Larry.
  9. Ghenghis While we may be more intelligent than the animals, that just means better tools. At this moment, the less armed are exterminated at will.
  10. It is all a matter of priorities. Now that the drug gangs in Orlando are shooting less than 100 people per month, they are moving on to the other Major Crime Issues.
  11. Typical Libertarian attitude. You preach self-choice, but then you expect me to do whatever you say. That reminds me of your last candidate who expect others to do his bidding by going out and campaigning or voting for him. Sure, the fascist "do as I say", but not as I do. You'll never catch me doing anything, mister.
  12. Penis! That's five-nil to me! Mike. Oh sure, you post against Somali pirates because they are black. Many of your British privateers were hailed as heroes. They did it first in the 1600s. This is typical of your racist attitude. Why do you work against African self-determination ?
  13. Quoted from BV in another thread. This quote inspired the first rule of the Political Mishmash Game. No one is allowed to ever accept that anyone of their party made a mistake. The object of the "game" is not to actual respond with facts or valid arguments, but to play politics. Rule 1 - People will not discuss any guilt by their party. When any poster posts (of any party affiliation), I will respond with, "Yes, I was talking about you and your failed platform". example - If anyone mentions the word "Clinton", the first poster to respond with "penis" gets 5 points. Rule 2 - Never discuss the actual question. Change the question and excoriate the other party. example - If anyone says that the Rep party has done anything, the Reps should point out that someone in the Dems did it first. (this reversal works for either/every party and every topic) "Let's send warships to fight the Somali pirates." "Oh sure, like your Jefferson did in the 1700s?" "Well he did better than Clinton!" "Blowjob!" Rule 3 - Bunny trails are requested. Immediately post totally unrelated links and demand that posters waste time reading them. Since the thread would have no actual content, I am unsure how it would drift.
  14. Nine? Doesn't anyone have hobbies? ***Ida Cody was herself living with another man at the time the lottery ticket was purchased and has had children with other men since the separation, Sessums said. Kids with other men? Not "another man", but "other men". Is she trying to start her own county? When your kids number into the double-digits, you need to win the lottery. She claimed to have given him money for the ticket while living with another man. That guy has some definite MoJo going on for him.
  15. Start? How do you think I get them there on time ?
  16. I was going to mention that you could get advice from the CRW guys. They always have 10 or 12 shoes in the trunk of their cars. But you said "pair of shoes"... I have different pairs of sneakers and sports shoes. Last years shoes get rotated into skydiving shoes. I don't want to lose shoes that I may miss because of the value.
  17. A while back, 60 Minutes did an "expose" on theft by baggage handlers at Miami International. Apparently, the theft was so well hidden (sarcasm alert) that 60 Minutes had to sit in the employee parking lot and wait for one shift change. Baggage handlers were carrying garbage bags full of stolen goods to the parking lot. The only mitigating circumstance was the amount that they could carry. They fire whoever is on film and then it is back to business as usual. So, think for a minute... if TSA security is so wonderful, how can anything be stolen? My main thought is this - they are checking passengers for explosives... If it is so easy to ransack luggage and take stuff out, then how easy is it to put stuff in? Like explosives? "TSA... keeping the world safe from hair products"
  18. At one point, the UN was trying to stabilize the area, but that was abandoned. Somalia has been a quagmire since then. It is typical of contested areas. During a conflict there is money and resources for the opposing sides. Then, when one side withdraws, the opposing force has a reduced budget. The economies which relied on the conflict decay. The infrastructure decays and a period of barbarism rules. When the criminal enterprises are the only business, the govt quasi-supports them. There isn't much of a govt in Somalia, but I'll bet that the local officials are getting are getting rich on this too.
  19. So, you'd pay the Blackmailer or pay the security firm.... um doesn't seem too much different in some respects....... Either way somebody bets paid for your fear. If the Indian navy blows up enough pirate mother ships, it will reduce the number of pirates. During the previous time that pirates were a problem, soldiers were landed and the parties were addressed personally. Unfortunately, the UN has a losing reputation in Somalia at this point.
  20. If you seem ill-informed, someone will remark, "What? Have you been livin' in a cave or something?" Maybe so. The latest AQ #2 has been quoted as referring to BO as a house servant for the white folks, in less than flattering terms (if some exist). This person may not know that he is currently #2 because all that is left of the last #2 is a pile of #2. They seem to get located and... whoosh... 8am Wakeup Missile. They are going through #2s faster than plastic cups in the free beer line. Maybe he doesn't know this. Perhaps this is the first person who can actually be somewhere living in a cave. He lacks exposure to current events. Maybe he thinks that he can talk smack and raise his image among his peers. Talk about poking the bear with a stick...
  21. Except for the inner south which seems to be about the same as it was in the 1800s. And this time you have people disguised as a sane voice for their party spreading the venom over 50,000 watt radio stations in every city around the country. There is a real concern for what they are doing and the damage it will cause. I don't listen to those stations, I only read the Bill Clinton remarks on the internet. I think they got a much larger distribution. As far as using racism in politics, his were the most widely heard remarks.
  22. Interesting, you think another Eisenhower style project will be part of Obama's plan? (Remember - he is going on his Chicago experiences) The only specific that he gave on his poverty program was to try to replicate the program for the poor in Harlem. It' main effects provides medical care and child daycare for the poor. A bandaid that is needed, but not a longterm solution. He wants to replicate this program in 20 target cities. Another possible program is to provide vouchers to get people out of public housing and move them. Both programs provided short-term help, but not a long term fix. The problem is meaningful jobs and training. Money may be guided to inner city infrastructure rebuilding, but the details haven't come out yet. It's just talk until it is funded. That would provide the much needed jobs (current issue). The necessary training for those jobs will provide future stability (the real issue). The theory is that anyone really cares what the KKK says anymore. Nobody cared 15 years ago. Besides, the Dems were doing their job for them. Remember the Clinton remarks during the Carolina and Miss elections? It was politics at its finest. Great technique. It was used like the lawyer that he was - Make a remark and then ask that the jury disregard it. Sure, but they don't. Clinton ran around reminding everyone that BO was black. Then, Hillary's campaign staff got the secondary media hit by denying that they meant that. "To all you people in Miss, we didn't really mean to remind you that BO is still black." Being the bad guy while claiming moral superiority. Perfect.
  23. nobody but Obama knows what he meant by change. he would have had to either show a trac record of voting in the senate or lay out specifics of his policy during the campain, of which he did niether. so anything that he does that doesn't duplicate Bush is a change in his eyes. Actually, it is pretty easy to predict. I previously posted this voting analysis done by OpenCongress.org Obama voted with the Dem party 98% of the time. Obama voted with Clinton 96% of the time. Considering what the last 8 years have been in the White House, that is literally change. But see, the right is upset it's not "center-right" governance because from their POV that's what the country is (even thou the country largely voted center-left). What you are missing out on here Bill is what FoxNews is telling the conservatives. Every moment they can, they are saying Obama is a failure and is "under the control of the radical left." Funny. The man isn't even in office yet. They should have left their spin for Jan 09. Now they just look like clowns. I've been meaning to work on a GOP talking point flow chart. They are rather predictable on every topic right now. They are preaching fear, using about 4 sets of stats out of context to give them just a small bit of credit, and they are trying to cause mass panic so 2 years from now people will vote GOP again. I was just answering the original question. How closely does Obama mirror Hillary? Voting record? Pretty close. Basically, he may do the same things that Hillary was going to do, but couldn't because of one primary problem - Hillary would have lost. People who voted for Obama would not have switched to Hillary. They both follow the party line, that is their day job. Hillary is being considered for a Sec of State position now. This process should be interesting. If that fails, she will become the new Ted Kennedy. Teflon lightning rod for the Dems. "...they are trying to cause mass panic so 2 years from now people will vote GOP again." Scary concept that anyone would destroy the country to retain power. I don't think that it will work because in 2 years, the primary elements will change. The war in Iraq will wind down and the money will be spent on pork projects in the US. Infrastructure projects that will revive the construction industry away from housing. Nobody really cares about a lot except paying their bills if their bills aren't being paid.
