  1. Ya know, there's always one whiner in every crowd. Go change your diaper and check back.
  2. Only 12 questions press for test BTW, I suck bad, but that's no surprise
  3. Alright then, how 'bout a yoke for the college folk? A college teacher reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam. "Now class, I won't tolerate any excuses for you not being here tomorrow to write this exam. I might consider a nuclear attack or a serious personal injury or illness, or a death in your immediate family but that's it, no other excuses whatsoever!" A smart-ass guy in the back of the room raised his hand and asks, "What would you say if tomorrow I said I was suffering from complete and utter sexual exhaustion?" The entire class does its best to stifle their laughter and snickering. When silence is restored, the teacher smiles sympathetically at the student, shakes her head, and sweetly says, " Well, I guess you'd have to write the exam with your other hand."
  4. I believe that these people dislike (hate?) us, and will continue to dislike us. Knowing that, I believe what we are doing will demonstrate to some of these other knuckleheads (I'm talking about the political and religious leaders) that they had better think twice before they allow attacks against the US to be launched from their soil. I think we are demonstrating very effectively what will happen if they don't get a handle on the violently anti-social nuts in their midst. I personally believe that Iraq was more than an incubator for anti-American sentiment - it was a nursery. The target audience knows who they are. I doubt they will like us more for what we are doing, but they might think twice before risking their sovereignty. I'll agree that we don't know how this will turn out, but would point out that we don't know how it would have turned out if we hadn't taken the offensive. Neither side can be certain that their position was the right one. I can't help but think that some of the frustration felt by the opposition is because they will never know whether their solutions (?) were the right ones. I think the collateral damage folks speak of is fairly certain in the Arab world, but less certain in the rest of the world. I'm not convinced that making some of our traditional allies take a stand is a bad thing. Going forward, it will be critical to know who shares our vision of how the world should function. Hussein was a sworn enemy of America, and more than likely he allowed other enemies of America to operate within his borders. The political climate in America changed such that his behavior would be addressed. I find the arrogance charge interesting. I view it as a backhanded attempt to shame and silence the opposition. It appears to be applied to those who are willing to take risks. "He did it without knowing for certain what the outcome would be!" The charge is just as applicable to those who advocate non-violent solutions. It seems to have been vigorously marketed by the left. As mentioned above, a bunch of our allies share the responsibility for the diplomatic failures that led to the current situation. Had they shown us the respect we deserve, and understood the urgency some of us feel for the safety of America, they might have worked a little harder to help us to prevent military action. Seems to me we were pretty clear about our intentions. The ones who didn't listen are the ones I consider the fools. I'm one of the 50+ percent who don't care whether we find WMD's. And I wonder; isn’t the UN just a formalized setting for buying votes based on the members self interests? I'm sure that some times even mutual interests are addressed. I don't see anything wrong with purchasing our safety and security. Imperialism? I'll bet you that we won't be in Iraq any longer than we stayed in Europe after WWII. trask
  5. I notice the UN didn't waste any time in stating, no demanding, that they be involved in the restructuring process and that it would be a mistake to not do so. They stated they did not want to be left with the only task of just handing out humanitarian aid. President Bush's reply was just as quick. The Iraqi people are capable of forming their own government, Thank you very much! It's high time we sent the UN packing, and not to piss anyone off or anything, but UN involvement in the restructuring of other governments can hardly be called successful when a huge outside force must maintain it's presence to keep order and control. Y'all should be able to find out, just what are the international numbers still present in the former communist block countries? I say the Iraqi people know best what form of government would work best for them. Maintain just enough oversight to prevent another SH from grasping power and nothing more. cheers trask
  6. Nothing too radical for me. Passed a guy once that looked pretty far off and was speaking jibberish as he walked by. Creepy

  12. A blond walks by a travel agency and notices a sign in the window "Cruise Special -- $99.00". She goes inside, lays her money on the counter and says, "I'd like the $99 cruise special, please." The agent grabs her, drags her into the back room, ties her to a large inner tube, then drags her out he back door and downhill to the river, where he pushes her in and sends her floating. A second blond comes by a few minutes later, sees the sign, goes inside, lays her money on the counter, and asks for the $99 special. She too is tied to an inner tube and sent floating down the river. Drifting into stronger current, she eventually catches up with the first blond. They float side be side for a while befoe the first blond asks, "Do they serve refreshments on this cruise?" The second blond replies, "They didn't last year."
