  1. You are very lucky to have spotted one of those. I've heard that they are very rare.
  2. Maybe you could sell advertising space on your body, and make some pretty good money.
  3. I was helping a friend build a house. I heard it on the news going to work. I laid out interior walls for about two hours when my friend brought in a small tv. We spent the rest of the day watching. I took the rest of the week off.
  4. It happened about one month ago. I was tracking across the top of a cloud, and as I pulled my arms up to check my altimeter, about 500' above the cloud, I saw my shadow on the cloud with a oval, the size of my shadow, around it. I fell dead center into my shadow. Too cool. I can't say that it was a rainbow. My guess was that the turbulence around my body caused the shadow.
  5. If you were born to have hair on your face, why would you get up every morning, and go through the masochistic procedure of scraping your face with a blade? What a huge waste of time. A razor has not touched my face since I was 19 except to clean up my neck once a week, and then I worry about cutting my own throat.
  6. The question should be, Is it life? I Know that you are a man who believes in saving or renewing our resources. Imagine how many potentially great lives have been flushed down the drain because someone just didn't want to be bothered with the task of raising a child. This is the great tragedy. A rancher, knowing that his herd is pregnant, doesn't neglect it, because, after all, it's not beef on the hoof, yet.
  7. So, how does that read in the science bible. "In the beginning, Science...."
  8. I'm sorry about your loss. Why is your anger directed toward your own people? We are not the ones to make the first move. I believe that we should treat Islam as a whole as the enemy, unless there is a visible, and serious housecleaning on their part. Or else, we in the west, should completely isolate those people to their region until they realize just how vital we are to their economies. After all, they say that they want to be left alone.
  9. Why have the liberated women of this country remained strangely silient about the persecution in the Islamic world? I never saw much celebration over women in Afganastan being able to vote. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am in total agreement with you. I just thought that women had some kind of international sisterhood, and the flaming radicals in this country should feel an obligation to stir up oppressed women everywhere. Or, could it be that radical feminism hasn't produced the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow? Not directed at you. You seem to be very balanced.
  10. Don't you just love being taken back to the age of innocence.
  11. I hope that for the rest of his miserable life, he wakes up with an arm he can't use.
  12. It really doesn't get much cooler than having your first high alt. hop n pop during the shuttle launch. It actually broke through the clouds while we were still in the plane, but it still had fire in its tail after I was under canopy. I jumped at Palatka, Fl. today.

  14. I have two plots and am going to be buried diagonally across them. When it's time for the resurrection I don't want to cause the Lord a bunch of unnecessary work looking for all of my parts.
  15. Being forced to listen to eminin 24/7 would definately be considered torture, but the guards were obviously subjected to the same noise.
  16. Do you believe that the heavens are endlessly full of universes? We can't see that far, and the idea absolutely boggles the mind, yet, any reasonable person would say yes it is. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What's your point? The earth is in a solar system. The solar system is in a universe, which is the Milky Way, if I recall my earth science. At least, that's what us Earthlings call it.
  17. >what would you have done in response to 9/11? So you still think that it's a law enforcement issue? Until the Muslim community as a whole steps up to the plate, and takes care of the business at hand, they are all guilty by complicity.
  18. >I heard that it only took 2 1/2 min. of supposed torture to get >one of those bad guys to spill the beans. I believe there's a huge difference between thinking you're going to die , and actually having your head cut off with a saw. No?
  19. I can't think of a better incentive to stay in Mexico.
  20. Quote[surgeon] Let me see... I have my surgical tools... check. I have my diagram... check. Right then; everything seems ready for the operation! [/surgeon] Good one!
  21. Just a little old fashioned karma comin' down. Willey Nelson: Tougher than Leather
  22. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Does that mean we get Dr Phil as Vice Pres? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How's that working for you?
  23. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Are you telling me that because science can't see, touch, or feel that something doesn't exist? That sounds like a statement of faith to me. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, by that statement, you believe by faith that we are the most intelligent beings in the universe? The problem with your statement is that you refuse to accept the possibility that there are realms that exist, which we humans simply cannot detect. If something is true, even though we can't prove it, or if we adamantly deny it, doesn't make it any less true. Do you believe that the heavens are endlessly full of universes? We can't see that far, and the idea absolutely boggles the mind, yet, any reasonable person would say yes it is.
  24. I heard that it only took 2 1/2 min. of supposed torture to get one of those bad guys to spill the beans. Not exactly my idea of torture. He probably needed his face washed, anyway.
