I don't think you can speak for everyone. I know quite a few people who joined because that's the only way they could afford college and graduate in 4 years with an engineering degree. Most people don't get that much from student grants/loans. Yes, I am also glad I never signed up. I do not have a strong love for my country, and I would even consider moving to a country that I think is better. And, I'm sorry, but the military is producing officers who went in as an "easy" way to pay for college. I'm sorry. People go into it as a way to pay for college. People do many desperate things to pay for college (loans that are never paid off, plasma selling, stripping, joining ROTC). There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

Okay...you missed my point. Yes, they signed up for it. Yes, they knew there was the possibility that they would have to fight. Yes, I agree with that. At that point, it is (usually) no longer their decision whether they fight or not. If the govt. believes we should go to war with Ireland because the beer they ship is too expensive, some people would be forced to go. Yes, they sign up knowing that they may have to fight no matter what. I just feel bad for people who are forced to kill innocent people (civilians) for a reason that they don't even "believe" in. You really think recruiters haven't said that? I heard basically that exact statement from numerous recruiters all along campus. Recruiters/presentations/etc. Do you really think that they wouldn't try to tell college freshman anything to recruit them? There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

I agree, which is why I never signed up as an "easy" way to get money since we were in "peace time." It doesn't mean that I don't pity them for being forced to fight in a war they feel is stupid. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

It's funny? Why is it funny? I think it's sad that so many of us were so naive in thinking that our country has matured and intelligence has grown so much that war would most likely not be necessary. I'm not sure how you can make this comparison when it's a completely different situation. Iraq is not going for (nor do they have a reasonable chance at) world domination. Do you really want to start attacking everyone that shares some of the same political agendas as Hussein? By your reasoning, if we're not attacking them as well, we're giving them the chance. I do support them. I pity many of them, too. I hope the people that I know who signed up for ROTC to get money for college don't have to fight in a war that they think is stupid.

Man...I turn my back for one second, and people start talkin' stuff behind my back! You couldn't keep up! Things that happen on vacation don't affect angel status. No, you're wrong. Mardi Gras only boosted my angel status. I have a picture of me by a huge church sign just to prove how holy I am! Want me to fill you in? WB has a secret crush on Jess, so he's always teasing her on the forums. Clay is moving to Ohio and seems to be trying to "line things up" with multiple females (who conveniently don't live in that state) before he actually gets there Bytch corrupted me at Eloy. Eric is jealous that he didn't get to ride on a bike, so he tries to insult my goodness level. He's wrong, though. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

Yes! I'm not fast enough to outrun the cops yet! If I keep up these antics, I'll get caught some day! (Well, unless the biker stud I'm on the back of is quick...but that's up for debate.) What happened to my 95% rating Billvon gave me? There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

Hey! What a coincidence! Me, too! This proves that I'm right! And now I'll blame the company you keep! (Wasn't his excitement waxing his car this weekend? ) There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

My problem is that I used to be such a decent human being. Within the past couple of months, though, that has all gone downhill. Now, I'm running from the cops, going straight through toll booths, shoplifting, trashing/pissing people off at hotels... I don't know what to do. I can only see myself having a future as a biker chick with chaps and big hair! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

Depends on the state. Depends on the state (I guess I could check your profile....) I got a ticket, too! Grrr. Oh well. 86 in a 65! Woo woo! Great way to start the day! I just checked out your state....funny...you are in one of like 8 states that I don't have easy access to laws/data/etc. I even have Alaska! I'll see if I can dig up anything, though. If you like to speed move to Montana or Maryland (Maryland has one of the lowest "point" systems for minor violations. You're first violation is given zero points.)

Wow my prediction was way off! Big number here (# of people I ditched):0:1 (first time I had a drink that required 3 people to finish it off since it was so big!) I accomplished my one goal for the weekend: I spent a good part of it outside.

My numbers will be: $10 million dollars won in the lottery:20:2 After I win the lottery, I will pay off the beer with kegs instead of the standard case. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

The big carousel at Navy Pier (like that hasn't been done a million times by high school kids already.) But seriously, seeing a really cool view while having sex! That's what I'm talkin' about! I'm not adventurous, but I'm going to be! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

My company has a good one: You're in good hands! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

I don't think I've seen this one mentioned: After talking to someone about how I like skydiving, they'll ask where I go, how many times, etc etc. After I tell them my jump numbers, I've heard this one a few times now: Can you pull for yourself now? Uhh...I guess they've never seen prices for tandems! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

Yeah, I'll be there in July! Oh, wait. You said April? Damn that stupid wedding thing! Though, the wedding could be alot more fun if I show the family there pictures from Betsy's ho phase! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

hey thats just not cool man!!! Here here, that's like tying a hundred dollars to a string, and ripping it away from us! Adding name to list of people who intentially decieve us... No, really! It was great! I technically flashed, but I did it knowing that nobody could see anything at all! The beads covered everything! I had so many beads, they could've even covered Anna Nicole's! Also, I was wearing one of those full body suits (black pants attatched to a black tank top basically) that I wore a fleece over. I'd pull up just the fleece! The guys behind me (who couldn't tell that I technically didn't flash) were freaking out that the guys on the balcony didn't give me the beads I "earned." Mmmmardi Gras!

I know! I didn't flash for any of them either!

Here are a few of my pictures from New Orleans! #1 This is a pre-drunk picture of some hot guy that I picked up outside the hotel and me. Since I wasn't looking like a lush yet, this guy ended up buying me massive amounts of Hurricanes! Even though he's a pansy, this man got me to do many evil things like shoplifting, running toll booths, other various things. #2 (Also my avatar!) They really were huge ass beers! Things like this got us all very drunk! #3 This is a picture of Todd (Erin's band geek and country bumpkin boyfriend) and Erin. Man! You should've heard him belting out Baton Rouge at Pat O'Brien's! Erin and I hadn't even heard that song before! They wanted to make some tandems, but weather sucked, so they partied down in New Orleans instead. #4 This is a (very very drunk) picture of me and Erin shortly after doing our "Double Dutch Bus" performance. We caught so many beads at the really awesome parades! Where are the pictures of boobies you ask? Well, what happens at Mardi Gras, stays at Mardi Gras (except for Girls Gone Wild!) I learned the art of fake flashing, though! Gumbo rocks! I ate so much food on this trip! I think someone out there is trying to make me fat! They took me to at least a buffet a day! This was my third year for Mardi Gras, and it really does get better every year!

Good call! "The California crunch really is the result of not enough power-generating plants and then not enough power to power the power of generating plants." and "They misunderestimated me." Right...we should've underestimated him more! And people actually gave this man the power to declare war. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

Shoot....you just broke my heart like when I heard there was no Santa Claus Now that sounds like a good time and a great idea! Someone getting paid to be the dd for lots of drunk jerks! Another darn good idea! There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

I love St. Patrick's Day! Everyone's Irish for one day! What's your favorite part of the commercialization of it? I think my favorite has to be the Shamrock Shakes. One year, I had a shake every afternoon for lunch! I have to miss the big ol' parade again this year, but I get to go to a "Paint the river black" party with kegs of Guinness. Anyone else have any cool plans? There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning

I didn't pay the $34 parking:0:0 Hinckley opens this weekend, so hopefully that second number changes!

2003 Mardi Gras Boogie - A Kevin922 Report (long)
Vallerina replied to kevin922's topic in The Bonfire
Congrats! -
I've got quite a few! In my sum up, he spent way too much of his time preparing for war on Iraq (especially since I don't think they ever planned on attacking us or supporting Al Qaeda) and much too little time on domestic affairs (have you ever read the little blurbs dug in the middle of the paper on the crazy stuff he plans on doing with our money/education?) I haven't read a clear definition of exactly why war is necessary. I guess that part is still confusing to me. Maybe I don't read enough. I just don't see anywhere that there was a reasonable threat of an attack by Iraq. Just because Iraq hasn't done what they were told by now doesn't mean that we should kill a bunch of people.
