I'd say it's pretty fair to apply this statement to certain brackets of American Society. Replace the word "illegal" with bloke, and "hispanic" with Caucasian. Lack of education is not the provilege of immigrants. On a tangent, is English the official language of the US? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

It depends what your definition is. I know of many illegals I reckon would not fit your definition. I think people would be surprised what the number of illegals coming from Western Europe, Canada, Australia, NZ, etc... is. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

It's not always that clear cut. I was an "illegal" for 7 years. I reckon during these 7 years, I may have contributed to society as productively as some "legal" immigrants have, and I'd venture at times more than some plain old corn fed nationals. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Happy 63rd, buddy!

Pick up the phone! "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

If we must... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Waving is so 80's! Flash us as you fly by! "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

That's why I always teach my students the 180° rule for separation. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

And as importantly, are prescriptions contagious? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

SHe tends to do that at boogies... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Is it just a concidence you happened to reply to Gawain with such statement? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Should there be a televised Christmas excecution of Saddam?

Wasn't it CNN who filmed the sniping of our soldiers by insurgents? 2 wrongs don't make a right. I don't believe that the press should practice self-censorship. It's dangerous. CNN, Fox et al can play all the BS they want on TV, including SH's execution. Shame on people glued to the creen though. They are the ones who make programers play all the shit we complain about. So although I will NEVER, EVER watch SH's execution, let it be broadcast and see how many billions of people watch... Q: Are we not men? A: We are DEVO... PS: I voted NO... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return." -
The unwritten rule with Putin is: stay out of politics, and I'll stay out of your business. Which means do not cross Putin. Abramovich is governor of Kamtchatka, has always steered clear of criticizing Putin on his record, has alway minded his own business, and is doing just fine. I am quite aware of such people, as I am married to a Russian woman who knows some of them. As I stated above, "crossing" Putin politically will have repercussions. See Yukos and Khodorkovsky, Berezowsky (close friend of Litvinenko) now exiled in London, etc... There are little reasons why an oligarch would get involve in such assassination plot. The FSB, and Putin, have more to gain, with very little risk. Even if it is proven the order came from the top, what is going to happen? We'll just buy more energy and brush it aside... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Not really. Oligarchs do not equal Putin nor the regime. Some are on the hit list. Others are in jail. I'd look more towards the FSB than the oligarchs (whom have, I believe, understood that staying away from pilitics will allow them to stay free and wealthy). "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Allow me to retort... Happy Daysians, The Fonz 19:74: "Wait a minute. I don't understand something here. I practice all week until I have to limp home and soak my feet. I spend 18 dollars and fifty cents on a monkey suit. Two nerds come to room, lock me in my bathroom and start calling names. Sherlock Holmes here chases me and starts yelling at me. Cunningham threatens me with physical violence, Shortcake kicks me in the leg and you all want to go home happy. We let me tell you something, you're not going anywhere lady. THE FONZ WANTS TO DANCE!" Merry Christmas to you all as well!

Figures. I thought we were refering to sexual activity. Wrong thread... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Indeed. For those of us still alive that is. Or at least those of us not confined to a wheelchair, pissing in a bag and eating out of tubes because of a hook turn. And those of us without the added few pounds of metal rods and plates screwed into our bones... The way the incident forum reads lately, it seems unlikely there will be many of us reaching the ripe old age of 80. Damn, that hole punch is starting to look good... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

DEC 7th- A day which has lived in INFAMY
Frenchy68 replied to BlueSkiesKel's topic in Speakers Corner
That's a truly infortunate situation, as most of the time, the fine person at the head of the armed forces, AKA DA POTUS, ain't wearing no uniform. Besides, if it wasn't for civilians, you'd have little to look forward to once being discharged.

Everyone's a fool. It is a fact that France is the greatest country. Ask any Frenchman... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return." -
Probably for the same reason some jump out of airplanes. Because they can. Although I'd bet them blokes have a lower fatality rate doing what they enjoy doing than skydivers do.

Isn't Lawrocket a "him"? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

It's not? Fooled me. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Topless Whooper Hooters would make a better thread title. Or at least Thankless Wafer Eater. But that's just me... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Faber ? That won't work. Faber is from Eurøbe. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

Thanks. I try hard. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
