The classroom of six boys and a girl Wanted to give Darwin a whirl The teacher said "Whoa! This is what happened and so You're the retarded offspring of 5 monkeys having buttsex with a fish-squirrel" So the rhythm sucks...sue me!

More cowbell! Hell yeah! Just not the morning after the night before when I was drinking Mike's Hard Lemonade. I love the stuff but it gives me one killer headache.

That statement was taken from a report on a news website. I'm no explosives expert, but since when can you tell just by the appearance of a package that it contains C-4? What are the tell-tale signs? The boxes at the bottom of the signs looked like batteries wrapped in black tape or maybe even, God forbid, a ballast from a flourescent light!

Hillary Clinton!

The strore actually took it back. Whoever I talked to on the phone originally didn't know they have quarantine area. Alright! Ben The Rat gats a reprieve!

Robins a pretty cool chick. Our hometowns were just a few miles apart and I dated a couple girls from there. Unfortunately she wasn't one of them.

I got a good laugh out of that myself. Next thing will be pet owners being fined because somebody mistakes their dogs electronic training collar for a bomb collar. It probably all started when some jerk saw one of the signs, started yelling "BOMB!", then people started pointing out more of them. Hell, until I read the article I thought it was just a picture of a cartoon character.

No shot, no flu.

Ah... the "Panther date/Near Death experience" That has never happened to me ever. Ok... Maybe 4 times, but that is all. Not counting the 3 that wanted to kill me, but didn't try. Sounds like "Cat People". I loved that movie.

In that case buy a cage for him. Name him Ben. I like rats named Ben.

Just add whipped cream and cherries

Congratulations! Hold him high and let him know the world is his!

Not likely. My friends' 8' Boa died after the exact situation you have. The pair lived in peace for about a week, then the rat bit the snake on the nose. With a naturally weak immune system the snake got a nasty infection and died. Best to seperate them even if you give the rat away. Ask the store if they will take it back without a refund. It'd be worth it.

The Appalachian folk, and plenty of others, used to give corn liquor (moonshine) to kids all the time for all sorts of ailments real and imagined. I firmly belive that all airliners should be outfitted with a bottle for the occassion discussed in this here thread. One good shot of that stuff and the kid would be out like a light! Only trouble is, every time I boarded an aircraft I would start kicking and screaming and whining like a three year old throwing a tantrum...

No desires unless satisfaction for said desires exist
willard replied to steveorino's topic in Speakers Corner
Ok, I've given some thought to a serious reply so here goes.... Man, or any other creature, does not come into this world with any desires, only instincts. A newborn baby has no desire to suckle until after it has followed it's instincts, suckled once, and learned that it feels better afterwards. From that point on feeding becomes less instinct and more desire as the child grows. Another example is newly hatched chicks. They have no desire to follow a hen around, but instead enter the world with the instinct to attach themselves to the first thing they see, which in nature is usually their mother. At that time instinct is replaced with a desire to follow her because good things happen when the chick does follow her. This is not to say that these instincts need to be satisfied at birth or even at all. Billions of chicks are hatched and raised each year having never seen a mature chicken, let alone their mother. If we turn the question around and ask, "If a satisfaction exists, will a creature be born with a desire for it?" I would lean strongly towards no. So, accordingly, I would say that creatures are not born with desires at all, regardless of whether a satisfaction for them exists. That's enough deep thought for one day. Now I got a freakin' headache. -
Same here. It is a good "source of sources".

Liberalism in the Classroom (Long, but I need your opinion)
willard replied to Michele's topic in Speakers Corner
Judging from the class hours you posted, I am surprised your prof would waste valuable class time with political discussions. Five weeks, even at 25 hours per, isn't much time to cover all the subject matter. For those who aren't familiar with course requirements at colleges and universities, a substantial part of the first two years of a four year degree is spent in classes to fulfill GenEd, often called GEC, classes. These cover such subjects as english, basic math, history, sociology, the arts, science, etc. Most of these offer more than one option for completion and these options can depend on the particular major the student intends to study. For example, I am an engineering major. My required courses include three quarters of physics, three of chem, and more math than I care to remember. I still had to fulfill a GEC requirement for an earth science but it could not be one that was specifically required for my major so I chose Geology 101, otherwise known as "Rocks for Jocks", and Intro to Physical Anthropology. They were interesting topics, easy enough to take along with 18-20 hrs of other classes and, most importantly, they fell into timeslots I had available in my schedule. -

False!! False False False False False! I desire sex, but haven't got any satisfaction in so long I just know that it no longer exists. You must be a right winger. And you would assume that because.....? -
I find it to be a great site for information just to quell my curiousity about something. I've found info on South Pacific islands, rare species, etc. But, since it is easily edited, I never use it as a source for a paper in any of my classes. And my political veiws have nothing to do with that choice.

Ray Stevens made a small fortune from the last streakin' fad. A guy I grew up with got a busted leg when he streaked thru a bowling alley and tripped over a ball return.

Still a good read. Part of my family came from eastern Europe. My grandmothers brother, who lived in what is now the Czech Republic, left home to fight the Germans and was never heard from again. Not even listed as MIA. Someone in a neighboring town had attacked a Germain soldier with shovel when the soldier ransacked his house. The next day the town was gone. All that was left was barren ground where the village used to be. After the war a mass grave containing most of the townfolk was found along with the rubble from the buildings. The Germans had executed everyone, bulldozed the buildings down, and used it to fill in a pond that once was the town center. All in one night. Same shit that was going on in Iraq.

How long will you be there? I have a friend who lives in Amsterdam but she is here in the States until Saturday.
