  1. I was pointing out what an obscure position it really is. High ranking administration official indeed. I think not. Pelosi is a moron. Always has been. We'll see if he's convicted. Perhaps he will be. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  2. I'm jealous. Namibia kicks ass, even if my luggage did get stolen there.
  3. They didn't mention my letter, did they Betsy? Glad to hear that. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  4. Looking forward to hearing the results. No word on the status of Mrs. Wilson nee Plame's employment status with the CIA - overt or covert. The indictment is on perjury, obstruction of justice, and lying to FBI agents questioning him. If he did all of these things, I hope he's fined/sentenced accordingly. A bit of perspective on this. Can anyone - without looking it up - name a previous Chief of Staff for any Vice President? I can't and doubt anyone else can either. Puts a bit of perspective on this comment: "The criminal indictments of a top White House official mark a sad day for America and another chapter in the Republicans' culture of corruption. At the heart of these indictments was the effort by the Bush Administration to discredit critics of its Iraq policy with reckless disregard for national security and the public trust," said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of California. Once again, showing her intellect...or more apropos, that of her supporters. Looking forward to hearing more details on this. For all Dems just crowing, please do us a favor and compare and contrast this press interest vs. that w/Mr. Berger's recent conviction (note that conviction and indictment are two different things) for pilfering classified material from the archives and destroying it.
  5. Skymall has a Skyride advertisement in it as well. I wrote them a letter and told them what I thought of SKYRIDE. I suggest doing the same with Travelocity. A real paper letter in a nice envelope. Rare things nowdays, but they tend to get more credibility. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  6. completely untrue, but funny as hell anyway. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  7. John Saccomando, their right wing, was one of my college room mates. Would you like for me to call him and tell him to stop it or else? Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  8. Justice Lawrocket. Nice ring to it. Justice JACKASS. Now THAT would be a confirmation hearing. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  9. Vinny recommends, for a beginning tequila drinker: 1) Herradura Reposado. Very nice and healthy tequila. Not as expensive as Patron or Don Julio or Cabo Wabo. 2) Tres Generaciones. Another nice tequila for the price. Not obnoxiously horrid like cuervo. Quite smooth. Excellent choice for a first time sipper. Once you've learned to appreciate it, move on up to Patron Reposado, Don Julio Anejo or Reposado, or Cabo Wabo. All excellent brands. Corazon is also a superb brand. Take the tequila plunge. You won't regret it! Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  10. GFD said she was coming by today too... she stood me up though. I was so disappointed it drove me to drink. Come on over. I have Herradura, Don Julio, a wee bit of Patron, Hussong's, Tres Generaciones, and Corazon ready to drink. I think I have some beer too.

  11. I have Herradura to drink... Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  12. I just went to the pub and nobody seemed to be there. If anybody was calling GFD a bitch behind her back and meaning it maliciously, that would not be cool at all. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  13. Try reading again - this time for comprehension. Not a backpedal at all, but if you think that it is, then good for you. I read the news every day - apparently you don't. Berger was tried, convicted, and sentenced - far too lightly. Then again, you'd have to read the news closely, as the Berger crime really didn't get that much press interest. You'd think such a conviction would be of interest to anyone seriously concerned about national security being compromised by the release of classified information. I'm actually really wondering what was in those pilfered documents. Perhaps some of them had Able Danger written on them. Perhaps not. We'll never know though, will we? From your post I now know that you WERE referring to PlameGate. Excellent. I'm looking forward to hearing what Mr. Fitzgerald has to say. I'm especially looking forward to hearing if Ms. Plame was indeed a covert employee of the CIA. It's never been substantiated to my knowledge. I read the news, listen to the radio, and read newspapers every day. If you did the same, you might have realized Mr. Berger is a convicted criminal. I haven't heard a single conservative state that perjury or obstruction of justice should go unpunished. Please, by all means, give us a source for such an allegation. While you're at it, please tell us why anybody who doesn't consider Mr. Berger's criminal pilfering of top secret documents a serious crime should be taken seriously when they claim that national security has been jeapordized by anyone who might have released the name of a CIA operative whose employment has never been shown to have been covert? Sweet dreams, and good reading - the linked article is from CNN, just for you. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  14. I recommend doing RW for a few hundred jumps. Get comfortable on your belly, in the air, and under canopy. When you pass 100 jumps you'll realize you don't know anything, then when you pass 200 you'll realize it all over again. After you've got a couple hundred jumps, perhaps give CRW a try, but only with someone with a lot of CRW experience. One thing I see a lot of people do - Vinny opinion - is start learning to freefly too early. When you do this you lose your belly skills - which were never fully developed in the first place. Since you're just starting out, learn how to do some flat turns under canopy - they can save your butt. And KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF OF THE FRONT RISERS FOR A LONG WHILE. 200 jumps or so. Then, think about it again, ask somebody who knows what they're doing, and stay off of them for another hundred jumps unless your above 1500 feet.
  15. Perhaps you should let her wear shoes in the kitchen as she cooks you dinner tonite. You know, show your sensitive side. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!
  16. I scuba dive on occasion, but don't really relate the two sports very much.
  17. Then you'd agree that his leadership wasn't exactly critical to its development then, I'd assume. Perhaps if he'd stated that he, among other congressmen, took the lead in funding research that led to the internet's development and in establishing a legal environment where the internet could develop then Algore wouldn't have taken so much heat from the right. He was probably a bit tired. Discovering environmental catastrophes like Love Canal, trips to Buddhist temples, and drinking so much iced tea that multiple bathroom breaks are required during White House meetings really would take up much of one's time, I suppose. One really has to wonder why the thread digressed from GWB's job to '00 Election trivia. I figured leftists would just love the fact that I slammed GWB. Oh well.

  18. Not a backpedal at all, if you'd actually read my post and/or Bill's. With regards to idiot-boy Love Canal discoverer Gore taking the lead in inventing the internet, if you and Bill think that the internet would not have come about without Gore, then more power to you. I'm not familiar with the talking points you're speaking about, but if they're important for you, then that's just swell. I assume you're talking about Mr. Fitzgerald's current investigation into the Plame affair. I'm looking forward to hearing what Mr. Fitzgerald has to say. If anyone perjured themselves, I hope they are penalized and no longer working for the White House. If she was a covert employee and 'outed' I hope the person who did so is penalized as harshly as Mr. Sandy 'Pants' Berger. I'm wondering where you heard any conservative say otherwise - I haven't heard such. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

  21. I'm somewhere in between hypocritical libertarian and republican. More towards the hypocritical libertarian. Oh. I'm a tequila swilling JACKASS too.
  22. Hmm...I think there's truth in what you say Oren, but still agree with Rehmwa. You definitely nailed it when you said that the foreign presence here skews the results of our poll. You're dead on when you say that the opposition party is often the most vocal - I was more vocal during the reign of El Jefe Clintonista than I am now, that's for sure.
