  1. Good for Maine. It's nice to be reminded of the value our society (or at least some of it) places on freedom and equality. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  2. Apparently at least two. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  3. livendive

    Yes!!!

    Every dog has its day. http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/05/06/geeks.pop.culture/index.html Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  4. Dave usually gets something else on Frenchy inspired birthdays, but I'm sure a cake would be nice as well. Happy Birthday, Sexy! Thanks baby! John - you'll just have to trust me, the "something else" I get on Frenchy inspired birthdays is far, far better than any cake. But like she said, a cake would be nice too. And thanks again Nick! You rock! Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  5. Fair enough, however reconciling that statement with the fact that 50-51 percent of those polled identified themselves as pro-choice, and 53 percent do not believe Roe v. Wade should be overturned, gives a decent idea of what those people considered to be "a few". I'd wager that Palin would not describe herself as pro-choice.

  6. I don't think he should be a teacher. I think we've got professional misconduct there on a scale to easily justify removing him from the profession of teaching permanently. I just don't think the first amendment reasoning is the way to find a resolution here. What if he'd instead put the ten commandments on his wall? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

  7. Reference? Blues, Dave Gallup It appears on that page that only 40% think abortion should be "legal in a few circumstance", which would not constitute a majority, much less a vast majority. 54% do think it should be legal under certain circumstances, which would be a majority, though not particularly vast. I suspect this group includes those who oppose third trimester abortions as a matter of convenience. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  8. Correct. I don't think that statement taken as a stand alone is basis for litigation. Along with the other quotes, however, it appears that the teacher created a hostile environment toward the student's beliefs. That. If this guy I had said, "I personally believe religion is superstitious nonsense, but many people disagree", I'd consider it unprofessional, but not an establishment of religion. In any case, he shouldn't be walking that fine of a line. Avoid the topic altogether and nobody gets their panties in a bunch. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  9. What a sad state the Bonfire has fallen into. J's post from this morning has gotten 3 or 4 replies, and this manporn travesty is on its third page. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  10. Reference? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  11. Not really much of a dilemma. If I hold my tongue, the innocent man has no chance of avoiding imprisonment and bad people are allowed to continue being bad. If I speak the truth, there is a 19% chance that nothing bad will happen, and a high probability that at least some bad people (Adam and Bill) will be prevented from harming innocent people. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  12. I doubt anyone has ever confused your middle name, which is clearly, "teh ghey". Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  13. Yay...Brian! How many minutes after he gets here should I wait before putting him to work? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  14. That. "Proud to be an American" doesn't make much sense for anyone born here. I'm HAPPY to be an American, but I didn't have anything to do with making that be the case, so why would I be proud of it? A legal immigrant is the only person I can understand taking pride in his citizenry, because he made it happen. The rest of us just got lucky. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  15. There was already a way out...when they say they're changing the terms of your card, you can decline, pay it off, and close the account. I've had two credit card companies arbitrarily raise my interest rate in the last year for no reason at all, one to an absurd level. I simply paid them off and closed the accounts, which is exactly what I suspect they were hoping for (having less money on hand, they wanted to reduce the total credit they've extended). Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  16. Holy crap, it's Ron Schott! And NOT his desk! I'm not CSA material Ron, and still have zero interest in becoming such, but it's good to see you post this anyhow. Hope things are well.
  17. Otherwise known as two of the biggest tearjerk movies for men. Now why didn't I see "Rudy" on your list? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  18. He just now reaching his mid-life crisis?! That'd put him on pace to outlast the cockroaches! (I suspect his "mid-life-crisis car" was probably a two-wheeler that boasted exactly one horsepower ) Blues, Dave Nope.................................................. Ox cart! Couldn't afford to finance a chariot? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  19. He just now reaching his mid-life crisis?! That'd put him on pace to outlast the cockroaches!

Too poor for a chariot? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

  21. I’m fat, and I drink and I smoke. I don’t care whether you’re fit or whether you find me attractive. Maybe it’ll help your angst if you consider my elevated grocery bills and excise taxes as my way of giving back to society. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  22. I stopped at a 7-11 on my way to work a couple weeks ago to pick up a razor and shaving cream, and then shaved half my face when I got to work. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  23. 13934-13700=234 234/13934=1.7% I knew I was an angel. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  24. It's not Billvon's statment that's making me laugh. Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)
  25. Aww shit...sorry I didn't realize that yesterday. Congrats anyhow!
