"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls. " M.

If you happen to have the time and money....

It gave me 26 mistakes because I didn't put a space between the word "say" and the ellipses. Which isn't supposed to be there, by the way. It thought everything after that was wrong, even though it was perfect. Screw this, my typnig si fien.

Except ejaculating. Your entire argument is based on the assumption that it happened the way he said it happened, and that it was an intentional act by her. I just don't believe that it couldn't have been an accident, and he's just trying to duck responsibility.

Where? When? All we have is he said- she said. You're taking a risk EVERY time you have any kind of sex. If I don't want to run the risk of having a kid, my semen delivery tool isn't getting out of my pants. I'm especially not going to splash my semen all over the place. Accidents happen, and if he didn't take the fact that he was running the risk into account, no one can be blamed but him. Just because he didn't EXPECT her to get pregnant, doesn't mean that he could assume she wouldn't. That's not to defend the actions of this woman if the story is true. I just think this guy should take responsibility for the life he helped create.

That Hot Dude from last night Called!!!! (Or... that Strange Dude..)

Yeah, it's so hard to keep pressing the button when there's 20 vertical feet of water rushing at you at 500 miles an hour. It was too late when they took the first picture. It's not like the tsunami waited for the perfect moment then washed ashore. They were probably out taking pictures of the beach when there was one big wave that they happened to catch on film.

I'm sorry, but it seems to me that everyone in this case is missing the point. He took his dick out, and let her stimulate him to orgasm. That's basically all we really know about the case. What actually happened in the room between these two people is none of our business, nor should it be. That being said, a DOCTOR should know the effect that one tiny little sperm cell can have on a fertile female. It doesn't matter what he's a doctor OF, he's got enough education to know that if you jizz, you've taken responsibility for that act, no matter what happens to the semen once it leaves your body.

Accident summary for inexperienced jumpers pls.

More experienced jumpers, please correct the following statement if inaccurate. The most common way people get hurt in this sport is by a jumper making a mistake under a canopy that is otherwise working as it should. Landing fatalities -

How do you go from that friend to someone special?
Dougiefresh replied to akurtom's topic in The Bonfire
Akurtom, there is no way I've found to sucessfully go from friend to lover. If you really respect her and admire her and love her as a friend and want the best for her... well... you're really her friend. You'll just have to suck it up, buttercup. Sorry buddy, she doesn't want to have sex with you. She doesn't want get intimate with you. She doesn't want you to see her naked, and she doesn't want to see you naked. All she wants is for you to be the guy with whom she can get totally plastered, and not have to worry about where's she's gonna wake up. Got it? Time to be the nice guy we all know you are deep down inside under those raging skydiver hormones. You like her? Take care of her and show her you care. You "love" her? Take care of her and show her you care. You want to fuck her brains out? Too bad. Take care of her and show her you care, or leave her alone. If she wanted to be your lover, she would have let you know by now. The reason she loves you as a friend is that she feels she can trust you. I would strongly encourage you not to fuck up the relationship you have with her. Five years ago, I was asking the same question you're asking. I realized it wasn't going to happen, so I made the decision to be her friend. Since then, I have had more fun with her than with any of my male friends. I have jumped with her. I have had sex with some of the women she introduced me to. I have had long term relationships with a few of those beautiful women. I have seen her naked. Twice. That's not to say it's been all a one way relationship. I have kept her out of situations and away from people that were no good. I have held her hair while she puked her guts out. I have held her as she screamed her rage against a vicious world. I have forced pills down her throat -- medicine which might prevent her from hurting herself. I have told her boyfriend he's a fucking prick and should get out, and stood between them as he tried to get in. I have been her there for her whenever she needed me. I have been her friend. So it's time to make a decision. Is it worth it to be her friend? -
Peace on earth and goodwill towards men. But I'll settle for a job that will pay for my addiction. no no no. The skydiving. Now that we've got that cleared up... while I'm dreaming, I'd like a pony.

Oh kick ass! I bet you could make a bunch and sell them. I'd start talking to sharper image and stores like that (for people with too much money)-- you could make a killing.

Scientists feel stifled by Bush administration
Dougiefresh replied to ChasingBlueSky's topic in Speakers Corner
From the AAAs site: JohnRich said: Yeah, over 320 million dollars is nothing. Let's look at the numbers, put this in perspective. A full time grad student in engineering at the UW-Madison makes $36k/yr. Most grad students are only funded at 33% or 50%, but let's use $36 k. If all that money were to go solely into paying grad students, arguably the cheapest way to produce large volumes of scientific information, the cuts represent the salaries of ~8800 grad students. Let's take the opposite end of the spectrum -- a tenured professor. My father, an internationally recognized expert in his field, earns ~$150k/yr. He is nearing the end of a long and distinguished career, and thus represents the high end of the pay spectrum. At this rate, a .6 percent in the national research budget pays the salaries for ~2000 scientific experts. Keep in mind that for a professor to maintain his research credibility he must publish several papers a year, each of which must expand the envelope of knowledge if it is to be published. By cutting the money flowing to research labs, Bush + Co. is cutting off the potential for intellectual and industrial growth. That is what makes the U.S. strong -- the constant return on our investment. Less research production means slower advancement. The gains that could have been claimed by American scientists, and thus by the American economy, instead go to foreign scientists and foreign economies. There might be a research project hidden away in some cramped research lab right now that will spark a billion-dollar industry. I, for one, do not want that project cut because our elected leader underestimated the value of science -- ALL science, not just the science he wants to hear, and not just the science he thinks is useful. I realize I've made a complex problem overly simple, but the basic point remains: Bush is not interested in the strength of the U.S. He is not interested in progress. He will not listen to any viewpoint that does not agree with his own. He is not forward-thinking enough to realize that money put into American brain activity repays itself several times over. Instead he dumps the money into Iraq, sacrificing international regard, financial reserves, and let's not forget American lives. And for what return? That remains to be seen, but I'll bet you .6 percent of the national research budget it won't be American jobs, American industrial growth, or stability in the Middle East.
