Think he's got someone already trying to figure out how he can add a signing statement to the ruling saying just that? Sorry, doesn't work that way. The President doesn't "sign off" on a SC ruling. I know that. That's why I said "trying to figure out"... I was being sarcastic. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Quit worrying and look at the bright side. With involuntary tremors like that, you ought to be able to close your eyes and imagine it's someone else giving you the handjob! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Definitely asses. Boobs can be nice too, though I rarely care about size (shape is much more important). Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

True, true.

I can't possibly be too old, so I must be too young. And last I heard (admittedly quite some time ago), VH-1 was for old people. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

It's ok. Being premature is kinda expected in this thread. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Wow. Your orgasms suck ass. Actually, sucking ass is an entirely different kind of orgasm, all together. sucking ass is an entirely different kind of orgasm. He didn't say now, so I thought we were waiting for 3 or something. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

So if a woman you were dating asked you to believe in Allah or Jehova, you'd agree? All belief systems are faith-based, including atheism, because none of us know what truths lie beyond death (and therein lies the hook for all religions...being unprovable). I have my own suspicions, based on what I think is likely and unlikely, but I'm not so arrogant as to presume my beliefs are infallible. I just think I'm probably closer to right than wrong. Anyhow, I absolutely couldn't change what I believe on the simple basis of someone asking me to. It would take tangible evidence to convince me to believe otherwise. The idea of holding multiple belief systems at the same time is somewhat absurd. How could a person simultaneously believe in an everlasting soul and anatta?

You're forgetting the party line. The Iraqi people are much better off with Saddam deposed. That's why we went there, to remove the brutal dictator and stop his totalitarian reign, right? Mission accomplished! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I have nothing to add, I just wanted to quote you before the inevitable edit. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

That gets at the last of my questions. Why wouldn't you marry someone who has different beliefs? Is it only Christians you wouldn't marry or are Jews and Muslims out as well (assuming you were currently single)? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

So I've got this friend who recently married. She's been a fairly devout Christian girl (Presbyterian I believe), and her new husband is Mormon. In order to wed in the Mormon temple, she had to go through some sort of "training", and none of her family and friends were allowed to attend the wedding because they're not Mormon. Personally, I find such exclusivity snobbish, but that's not really the point of this post. What's more curious to me is that she was able to intentionally say "I have previously believed X, but I love this man so I will choose to believe Y from now on". Similarly I know another Christian gal who's been dating an atheist. She recently told him that him not being Christian was going to become a deal-breaker for her...that he didn't need to subscribe to her exact beliefs, but he had to come to believe in the Christian God, the father/son/holy spirit trinity, and that Jesus was the son of God and died for all of our sins. The guy's offer to respect her beliefs and attend occasional services was declined as insufficient, so the issue remains outstanding. Both of these get at the same issue. Can (and should) a person deliberately change their beliefs? If so, what does that say about their conviction or faith in the former belief? And why do so many people of any faith (Mormon, Christian, Atheist, Muslim, or Jew) insist on a significant other who shares their beliefs? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

Thanks for reminding me why I don't visit the topical forums. The folks who actually want advice rarely listen, the folks who give advice are frequently unqualified to do so, and the trolls are typically pretty fucking lame. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I have no soda in my house or I would have (I haven't had a float in MANY years!) In any case, this thread just prompted me to eat a Dove bar. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Feliz Navidad Senior Randy!

What's the deal with MySpace? I just went through a bunch of this thread clicking on random links and don't understand the attraction. Given how many people here are on there, I figure I must be missing something. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

Because the members have nothing vested and therefore less interest in the outcome. By that reasoning, prostitution would be preferable to dating. Well it is easier, cheaper, and you know you're going to get your money's worth! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

I don't think things could get that bad anywhere! As I've told you before, I'm not currently looking for a sub. If that changes, I'll let you know, but until then stop bothering me about it. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
