  1. All the more reason why we must not relent against these assholes. No ceasefires, no hesitation, no mercy. Wipe them off the face of the earth. They deserve no less.
  2. I've got a page and a half of Pete Rose baseball cards from the 70's and 80's. I think he'll get in in his lifetime.

    Tipping

    I can see that if the host/hostess/bartenders are making stuff up for the waiters/waitresses. Otherwise, that would suck. I'm usually VERY tolerant and it takes a lot to tick me off when it comes to this. I usually am pretty close to what you stated above. You're right about the shitty service, however. I recently got very crappy service from a very rude waitress. I've never had one this bad. I asked for a Styrofoam cup for my kid instead of the regular adult size plastic cup they give everyone. It's lighter and they can handle it better. She made some rude comments and, in a condescending manner, shook her head as she left the table. The remaining service was reflective of that. I left her a bright shiny quarter in the middle of the table when I left. Tipping less than normal might not give her the message and, if I left nothing at all, she might just think I was a bum. I thought the quarter got the message across.
  4. Work it up for round #2 baby! Doesn't everyone?

    Tipping

    Many places don't pay their waiters/waitresses much at all with the expectation that they'll recieve tips to make up for that. I think it should be wrong for businesses to not at least pay their people minimum wage. Some don't, however. I know a place that only pays about $2.50/hour but the waiters/waitresses still make pretty good money. Regardless, I think whatever they get in tip is what they've earned above and beyond the minimum wage their employer should at least be paying them. Anyone who doesn't tip or doesn't tip very well is really screwing them over bad. I tip 20%. That is, if they give good service.
  6. After all that talk about that brand new spiffy Racer Tandem rig? ...Glad you're ok.

  8. Nnaa...nnaa...nnaa...blah...blah...blah..."Bush wins in 04."...nnaa...naaa...blah...blah...
  9. I thought we were discussing GWB in this one. I guess the Libs are just scrambling for the "I know you are but what am I" defense.
  10. Put into context, probably. I know that we are winning the war. Can we win by doing what we're doing? Yes. If we keep fighting back and never quit. Will there be a final declaration of victory? Probably not. It's just not that kind of war. Will it end? I don't think so until we raise the general collective education levels of the peoples of the world. I think most of the violence from the extremists in that area of the world is born out of ignorance of even their own doctrine.
  11. So what do you think and do you disagree with what Bush said? Do you think that this war is winnable in the conventional sense? Do you think there is a conventional enemy with front lines drawn and territory to be occupied? Do you think that there might be a treaty signed with an official leader ending the terrorist strikes against us? Or is it logical to think that this war is an ongoing thing and that our only option is to continually keep our guard up and destroy as much of the enemy structure as we can so as to keep them at a disadvantage. I know the Libs are trying to make a play on words here but, if one thinks about it, it makes perfect sense what Bush said.
  12. Come on Mark...it's ok for the Dems. It's not ok for the Reps.

    Bush wins.

    Just a different mindset, I suppose. My job was to defend you and everybody else here. It certainly wasn't about the money. From my experience, if you're attacked, you'd better be thinking about the next step before you get yourself wiped out. You can't just sit around licking your wounds.

    Bush wins.

    What's that got to do with what we're talking about? I don't see the correlation.
  15. I think your percentages are probably a bit skewed there given the number of Christians as opposed to Muslims in this country. Probably doesn't mean much.

    Bush wins.

    I was in the Army then. I only knew one person there at the time. He was a Special Forces Medic that I served with. He helped treat people (not that there were many to treat). My first thought was of a quick and decisive response to the attack. I knew we had the right person in command to initiate that counterattack. The former Commander-in-chief demonstrated himself to be one who would always take the passive if not cowardly approach to aggression. This one required that we go on the offense and we did.

    Bush wins.

    Yes...I believe it. I know I was thinking something along those lines when it happened.
