  1. I would just like to take this time to CONFESS...it was all my fault. I'm the one who is responsible for this mess, I wanted to have it all and have it now. I'm going to start right now, and begin paying back all that money I took without requard to my fellow man. I need to work out a payment plan, and or set up a Channman Relief Fund for those who wish to assist me financially so I can begin paying everyone back. Maybe I can get Lawrocket to represent me in bankruptcy court, and the rest of you can just pound sand
  2. > religion did NOT mean that religion had or has no place in the public square. I would agree, and I would encourage its continued use within the public square, well except that Pagan crap. I only used the term Pagan Crap because its inflammatory. It's been sometime that I've read up on this matter, must ponder it more.
  3. There is alot about this Gov. you can like, such as standing his ground and not compromissing with his values, much like the Rep. establishment would have liked him to do early on. Heard much from the tolerant left on asking for civility, or how not to act stupidly...It seems Gov. Walker is receiving a great deal of death threats, primarily on the internet. I haven't heard any cries from the left, media or the POTUS asking for calm and or cooler heads. Well OK, I'm not surprised... deep down inside they want to see this guy catch a bullet.
  4. Bastards Another reason for voter ID laws (which a judge stopped in WI by the way) Using the Dem's get out the vote model works See that dude crying on national TV...about how democracy is dead...priceless. Maybe, just maybe they felt the need to make everybody starts paying their fair share. I know thats what Obama would want.
  5. I think the issue was the Dragon was returning in the role of Trash Can. Bringing home the garbage is an important part of the testing phase. NASATV is somewhat boring on most accassions. Any word on the Red Bull Stratos project. What is the scheduled time of the jump? Now that is womething I don't want to miss
  6. My last project at NASA prior to leaving (Laid off) was to design the Bundles that secured the Flight Releasable Grapple Fixtures (FRGFs) together. Well I say design, more of reverse engineer SpaceX design to a working mockup that could be used in training astronauts in the underwater environment of the Neutral Buoyancy Lab at Sonny Carter Training Facility. A brilliant engineering buddy of mine was hired away from NASA by SpaceX to handle all Structural Analysis and Finite Element Analysis among otherthings. It is said that he is on the short list as being one of SpaceX's future Astronauts. Congrats to you Jeff.
  7. The big WOW, is the number of idiots that think like him. I hope I have the oppertunity to interview this guy for a job. I can't find any reason no matter the education to hire someone with his views....EVER!!!!
  8. Elect Ken Jennings Jeopardy Champion, smartest man in the world second only to Obama.
  9. Pops, I think you would also consider it pathologically rude if someone started to meddle in your love life. Imagine what it would feel like if I came to you door to tell you what you can and can't do in bed, an who you can or cannot marry. It's no different from me. People are entitled to their religious views, even if those religious views are homophobic, but just like their sexuality they should keep their religion to themselves. All the bull-shit about same-sex marriage being a danger to the institution of marriage or society or whatnot is just that: bull-shit. There's no examples of societies that came into trouble for tolerating homosexuality or same-sex marriage. OTOH there's loads and loads of examples of fear-mongers who claim a certain demographic is a Cancer2Society to induce fear and hatred for said demographic. It's not good to dwell on the past too much, but it doesn't hurt to remember that the worst thing that ever happened to homosexuals is Christianity. I don't blame every modern Christian for that, but there's still plenty of homophobia among Christians. I don't buy those claims that Christians are genuinely worried about the institution of marriage. Sure there might be delusional idiots who think gay-marriage will destroy their marriage and society, but for the most part it's the same tactics Christians traditionally used to induce fear and hatred for certain groups. I had this question sometime back with Bill concerning Public opinion of same sex marriage. The polls would seem to indicate a majority support for legal recognition of same-sex couples (Marriage). However everytime its come to a vote in what 32 states it has been defeated. (I guess the majority was out of town). Why use the term homophobic? or even in your case christianphobic? Why marriage Vs Civil Unions and or a legal contract reconized by a state. Marriage is considered a sacred union between a Man and a Women, by millions in this country and has been for several thousand years, maybe this is the LINE that many are willing to stand on and say respectfully No. I'm just asking the question Why Marriage, when there are methods to obtain the legal reconition and protection under the law.
  10. Damn straight, I hope Eric Holder brings charges against this Bastard. To think he took the time to hide it in his locker. The nurse did the right thing by denying this obvious drug user his drug of choice. Well, its good to know that as a nation we can all breath easier, knowing our children are safe within our school system.
  11. OHH, I'm sorry then, if I had known that I would have adressed him as Lord.
  12. QuoteWhile your allegations do have merit on the surface lets take a closer look..... The perpetrators are self proclaimed anarchists. Anarchists sounds like "anti-christ". Coincidence? I think not. And from watching movies I have learned that when the anti-christ comes back, he will come back as a lawyer. But more on that in a moment. They are also members of the "Black Bloc", a sinister sub cult of the OWS movement, funded by George Soros. And while they look white, one of them has dread locks. The only reasonable answer is that they are "White-African Americans" Because they are in jail, the only sex they are having right now is gay sex. It must be noted.
  13. Well, I guess having a Aunt in the business with lots of contacts helps. Not who you are, but who you know does have benefits.
  14. > most vocal of the hard-right wing Hey, I've been oiling my jaws lately.
  15. My oldest daughter just started a new career in Marine Insurance brokerage firm handling Risk Management for large ships, Off Shore Plateforms and Ports & shipping terminals throughout the globe. Her starting pay was 68K, which is not bad at all for a soon to be 26 year old women. She will finish her Masters in December time frame I think which is completly unrelated to the Insurance business. My understanding, there are not any degree programs for this type of work in colleges and I often wondered why. The individuals like my sister who are involved in this type of work make a great deal of money. Her salary with Bonuses was in excess of $350K last year. (No Degree) My daughters career path places her in a 250K salary within about 15-17 years. WOW, I'll even spell that backwards...WOW.
  16. Yep. I was ready to vote for him based on my time in MA with him a governor as well as his centrist views. After the primaries.....forget it Yep, I was going to vote for him too, until I read your post
  17. Everybody seems to be using the term "Evolving". Who in the hell uses that kind of language. My thoughts on this matter are still evolving... The term that needs to be used in discribing Obama's thoughts on this issue is "Revolving" Like the DUDE continues to go around in circles, I'm for it, against it....no I'm for it again, UHH well Im for it maybe, just let the States resolve it. He's still looking for those CORE VALUES that he thinks he might have.
  18. >"....most Americans hold..." With what 31 or 32 States rejecting Gay Marriage, how do you get to Most American's? Just wondering
  19. Good news for WI residents. Good news for WI financially. Good news for freedom.
  20. On my Second day of P90X....its killing me, but I hope to get back to my weight prior to Heart Surgery, with a 6 pack.
  21. Now thats just plan Funny From their photos that both look like PEEZ Heads.
  22. Yep, the Tea Party is making efforts in replacing those Repub...in name only and replacing them with those that will make a effort to bring about the CHANGE this country truely needs. Freedom from the heavy hand of government. Attended a local Tea Party event at Clear Lake, here in the Houston area near NASA several weeks ago. Had about 1,500 people in attendance. We hope to do our part in getting Cruz elected for US Senate.
  23. The interesting thing about the video to me was the officer surrendering to the kids with both hands raised before, BAM!!!, he throws down his quick draw. I wonder if it was some type of distraction or misdirection he try to pull off, and or did pull off.
