  1. oh lord, so many incredible songs. One Particular Harbor and Tin Cup Chalice have always been two of my favorites. So many of his songs just bring out the good feelings. You can't help but smile, like Last Mango in Paris, followed by La Vie Dansante and two less known songs that always stuck a cord with me - Last Man Standing, and Schoolboy Heart ...and too many more to even read, let alone list. Forget Shakespeare, Buffett is the bard. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  2. It actually did come from yahoo admin. It was one of those message undeliverable automated replies. That was what worried me, outgoing mail I didn't send. But the first three replies laid that worry to rest, so I'm convinced it's all good. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  3. I agree that NPR has quality news reporting, but their talk shows generally suck . To clarify (though you know what I mean), I don't need an entire memo, but reporting what BOTH sides are saying and giving the reasons why, would please me a great deal more than just reporting what one or both are saying. Make both cases, and let people decide for themselves. Do what most teachers can't or don't anymore... encourage analytical thought! Just once, though, I would have liked to see/hear a news source reading from the AWB. People would have been running around going "WTF, this is about bayonets? Where is the part about machine guns???" witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  4. That alone won't solve it. we need to VOTE FOR KERRY otherwise Bush may win. By that token, my new slogan is "VOTE FOR BUSH, otherwise Kerry may win." edit: this is why third parties need to be validated before the next election. Do you want to vote against the worse candidate, or for the one you believe in? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  5. I thought we were discussing talk shows (tv and radio). If you want to discus news outlets as journalistic sources, I have slightly higher criteria. Like reporting the story, the whole story, and nothing but the story, at least every now and then. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  6. I'm still convinced the only reason DC is ranked thrid for worst traffic (behind LA and NYC) is it's lack of quality public transportation. Back there, it's not that people don't take advantage of PT, it's that it just doesn't work for them. If you live and work near a Metro stop, you're in luck. Everyone else, you're S O L. Wouldn't the best way to lower gas costs be to allow car makers to relax some of the safety requirements, and allow people to choose? If cars didn't weigh ten tons, they wouldn't suck up so much gas. Taxing SUV purchasers (not a recurring fee) would be a plus as well, in my book (yes, I drive a pathfinder). Alas, our cities are just not built to encourage walking and make driving harder. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  7. OK, this sucks. I got an e-mail from yahoo administrators that an e-mail could not be delivered. Problem? I never sent the e-mail. I've been getting viruses that are 35K attachments for a few weeks now, but I sure as hell haven't openned any of them. Today, I get this message: WTF ?!? I keep norton updated, I haven't downloaded anything strange, and I sure as shit haven't openned any email attachments other than pictures. All the attachments I'm getting have this bug: ww.netsky - or something like that. (A) How do I get rid of this? (B) How the hell did I get it? (C) Why didn't Norton prevent this? (D) Why didn't http://www.housecall.antivirus.com find anything? Thoughts? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  8. It's not both sides just because tyou tell someone their conspiracy is beyond ridiculous. You can claim "both sides" when they start bashing Kerry, Clinton, or Kennedy. Until then, they are just not 100% falling of the left side liberal. Just 85% or so. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

  10. More intelligence coming out of Miami-Dade this election year. Their "logic" witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  11. Nothing they can do about it. As long as the people being dragged are not Canadians, once the bounty hunters get them back on US soil, the canadian government has fuckall they can do about it. Sovereignty does still exist, no matter how much the UN is trying to destroy it. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  12. I believe this is correct. Actually, most, if not all, courts take confessions and evidence that were seized across the border, whether it fits the US constitution or not. The reason is the constitution is by and large a limiting document on the US government. That's why bounty hunters and private eyes have far more "lee-way" when looking into someone. I heard two border state officers arguing about whether or not the constitution covers agents of the government when they are in foreign countries. (can you take a suspect across the border and beat a confession/information out of him?) Many countries have some sort of extradition treaty with the US, but a lot of them state that no suspect is deported if he might face the death penalty. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  13. Yes. He is not, however, special ed, as your quotes imply. It wasn't a "toy gun." It was a piece of wood for shooting rubber bands. I don't see how anyone could think it was a rifle. Maybe this will be the next big lie. Forget the plastic gun, now we have to worry about the wooden gun. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

  18. Can you imagine the changes that would happen if more people just voted? Yeah, people voting what they actually think (assuming they do) would be very nice. I plan on it come November. (I have to admit, it's an easier decision because my state will turn blue) witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

  21. What, you're waiting for Clinton's News Network to cover things fairly? They're still working on the definition of "is." witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  22. Then take it to a prosecutor. They are the one who brings criminal charges. This lawsuit is frivolous, and malignant. How do I know? (A) they are suing the dealer for doing everything the FBI and BATFE and the law say he is allowed to do (B) they are not suing on those grounds (C) they are going on about how the prosecutor is soft on gun crime (D) it is supported by the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence Ownership. This suit fits the pattern for dozes of other lawsuits that have all been thrown out. Jeffrey explained to you the theory behind the lawsuits (legal fees as a penalty, not legal judgments). This is nothing more than asking for legislation from the bench.

  23. Gotcha. I agree that things are far too processed, and are actually made more unhealthy because that's what people thinkn they want now. But what about this 'golden rice' stuff. You know, the stuff that is supposed to be able to end hunger for everybody on Earth. What's your take on that? Are you one of those "Frankenfood" people? (I love it when people use scary words to make their argument stronger, reminds me of the assault weapons ban) witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
  24. I was telling someone four yeras ago how laptop makers should make one that you can flip the screen around and just write on it, the way you do when you sign without ink when buying on credit.
