  1. The chops are good on you, but I have never been able to grow much facial hair EXCEPT the goatee. I always thought when I grew up I'd grow more hair. I'm 51 now, so I've given up waiting on the 'burns to grow in. steveOrino
  2. I could only imagine what F-Lloyd (DZO) would say if I had a soul patch. I can hear him now in his best ebonics voice. "Whaz goin' on?" steveOrino
  3. That's what physics and engineering courses are for. You GOT to be kidding me! I graduated my Masters with a 3.75, but I bet I couldn't squeak out one A in either physics or engineering. It makes my brain hurt just thinking that "logically". steveOrino
  4. I guess you think your fellow professors who teach philosphy are wasting everyone's time, eh? No, they amuse the students.
  5. cremated. Why? why take up more soil? My spirit is eternal, but this body certainly is not -- feels better to be ashes than worm food. steveOrino
  6. Back in the 70s & 80s I had a big mustache (looks so gay now). In the 90s I grew a goatee. My wife loves it, but I thought it look dated (90s thing) I shaved off the 'stache and have just a chin beard. Some of my peers (who still have goatees) say I look Amish. Actually, I think I'd like to shave it all off except the triangle goat-head under my bottem lip. Sortof like Apollo Ono (speed skater) What is in? Should I care? Why shouldn't I care (I mean I don't wear leisure suits ... anymore) EDITED: Sorry, I thought I was in Bonfire; Mods, please move. steveOrino
  7. Good! So many atheists/agnostics have a big chip on their shoulder to get everyone to believe as they do. They feel so superior. Sort of like some Christian fundies I know. It just goes to show fundamentalist come in all shapes and sizes, Christians ... Muslims ... Atheists. IMHO -- they are a pain, but hey, so am I at times. steveOrino

  9. Not that you need it, but for those that need a death denial, do you have a better alternative that would be more comforting than their present one? steveOrino
  10. *** _____________________________________ You got that right!!! Maris 'got' those homers, fair and square. Wasn't that asterisk thing just because the Mantle fans couldn't handle his being out-done. It sure has kept the fans talking over the years. That Yankees team was something! Chuck Actually, the *asterik was because he did it in a season a few games longer than Babe Ruth's season. Sort of like comparing 14 game NFL season records to 16 game NFL records. steveOrino
  11. IF there ever was a need for the *asterik -- it should be on Bonds. (and McGuire & Sosa) steveOrino
  12. Ryan Howard is going after Roger Maris's record of 61 homers (Howard has 54) Yep, I said Maris's record, Not Bonds', not McGuire's, not Sosa's. They were all tainted with steroids. Hopefully, this is the real deal! steveOrino
  13. What do you call 1000 lawyers cast overboard into the depths of the ocean? A good start! steveOrino
  14. Nostril hair is easy to see and trim. Ear hair is harder for me to see and threby harder to maintain. Usually when I shave I don't see anything, then if I put on my reading glasses ... forest! Give me easy to see and trim nostril hairs over catepillars on my ears any day! steveOrino
  15. My middle son, Drew, was always the little guy. We thought he'd take after my father-in-law who was a slightly built 5'7" man. Somewhere around his senior year Drew sprung up to 6'1". Now he is 23 years old and is in Special Forces. In my eyes, he is a stud! steveOrino
  16. Why do you continually assume religous questions be answered like scientific questions? While they are not always in contrast, they do not ask the same question. steveOrino
  17. While I believe in Karma (Christian terminology -- you reap what you sow) I don't believe in reincarnation, just as many do not believe in Christ as Son of God.. I have no issue with those who do believe in reincarnation, I just can't grasp it intellectually or spiritually. steveOrino
  18. Urban myths are rampant in USA. The advent of the internet makes them even more prolific. I assume you are responding tongue in cheek, but I am continually amazed at how many people believe something simply because they read it in an email that has been circulating the globe. Send this in an email for me. God will send you $1000 if you send Steveorino $100. Too late Robert Tilton has beat me to it. BTW, I said it was a pithy statement even if the circumstances were false.
  19. Sometimes, repetitive habits (nail biting, hair twisting) are brought on from early childhood issues. Dealing with those old issues may help some people break repetitive habits. steveOrino
  20. Apart from skydiving, most of my bad a$$ stff is in the past. But I did it ... stabo, cast & recovery, rappell, and other stuff with SF. steveOrino
  21. I can't see the video because my work blocks streaming video (no more skydiving movies) but if I had a nickel for every wanna be SF, Ranger, SEAL, I'd be rich!. Someone told me that another Green Beret worked at our school. I went over to him and coin checked him. He stared at it for a long time ... silence. I said, "I hear you were in SF too" "Yeah, Special Forces" "Which Group? I was in 5th" "Uh, Fort Bragg" "Yeah, okay, but which group? 5th 7th? (back in my day those two groups were at Bragg -- now 5th is at Campbell and 3rd was reactivated) Finally he confessed he was with some signal batallion attached to SF for some field exercise. What a poser! steveOrino
  22. Hey, if Jack Bauer does it -- its gotta be cool. steveOrino
  23. If I see something I want -- I do not bid until 20 seconds are left. I put in my max bid and if i get it -- so be it -- if not, at least I wasn't swooped by another Ebayer (like I just did ) steveOrino
  24. I'd like to sell you guys some land ... Just because someone sent you an email does't mean it is true. This one has been around a for a while http://www.snopes.com/politics/war/recoil.asp Pithy answer even if it was made up. steveOrino
