"Kennedys dont need to own the media. The media is very happy to follow these people around and report any action they make including taking a piss in the woods." This is really one of the saddest things about mass media, and probably something both right and left can agree on, i.e. that so much "news" is worthless, spineless drivel. By the time they're done covering the weather in exhaustive detail, covering a couple feel-good fluff pieces, and covering the sports highlights, there's precious little news on the average news broadcast.

Okay, Gag W; correct DFA if he's wrong (like the Doctor has to ask), but: Bill Gates: oops, forgot to think The Kennedys: Don't own any media outlets Ted Turner: Might own some media outlets ( ) Most of Hollywood: Fictional media, plus how many movie studios are owned by larger interests? You may be right that there are rich left-leaning individuals out there, but the Doctor would bet ducats to donuts that the conservative/rightie rich guys outweigh the lefties by a healthy margin. After all, isn't it the Republicans usually saving the fat cats from those evil taxes? [ 09-16-2002, 01:10 PM: Message edited by: Dr Flash Amazing ]

If not, then the anti-war activists out there need to shut that fucking hole in their head called a mouth and realize that war is sometimes necessary to preserve a way of life. And yes, I did serve six years in the U.S. Navy and I did help to scoop up body parts off the USS Stark after it was hit by an Iraqi anti-ship missile back in 1987. -Heinous Your argument goes wrong in failing to look at the situation from more sides than just one, i.e. America's. The terrorists who killed so many innocent people on 9/11 saw their way of life threatened somehow, and engaged in an act of war to preserve their way of life. So is that understandable and OK? Or is war only OK when America is pulling the trigger? Please clarify.

quote: Originally posted by RopeGunHooker: Dr Flash Amazing, You are an idiot. I think it's great that we stormtroop places like Afghanistan. Maybe you should have been the sole target of the airplane attacks last September. It is and always will be inevitable that innocent citizens will perish during war time. To act like it is the intention of the troops out there or blame it on them is a gross overstatement. Get real jackass. First of all, numbnuts, Dr. Flash Amazing never said anything about the troops actually liking to kill, nor does he blame them for wars. If you got that from what DFA wrote before, you misconstrued what he was saying. Secondly, if it's inevitable that civilians will die in war, and the terrorist attacks of 9/11 were an act of war, then why are you so pissed off about it? By your logic, the lives lost are just collateral damage, right? It would seem that your bellicose attitude relies on the severely misguided assumption that American lives are somehow inherently more valuable than other civilians' lives, which, in the opinion of this Doctor, is fucked.

PowerGel has caffeine in it (some flavors, anyway), and is thus better than GU. Stick your GU up your poo, foo'.

Hmmm ... it's not 1938. Maybe those of you on the war wagon wouldn't be so pro-war if the shit happened in America a little more often, and it was your family getting ripped apart by mis-targeted cluster bombs. The fact that what we see and hear of war is what the military allows the news media to see keeps us far removed from the images of slaughtered innocent families. We wouldn't want the public to actually know what was going on and stop supporting our military campaign, now would we? After all, what's a few poor brown people compared to good numbers in the public opinion polls? Wake the fuck up.

You motherfuckers are all dirtier than dirt.

I get a new shell this winter, And I need to pick one for all around everything, from goofing arround in a down pour to my first snowboard and iceclimbing lessons. why soft shell? why hard? come on help a girl out. Soft shells aren't going to keep you dry, but they are windproof (or at least resistant, see manufacturer's overly optimistic information for details), and you can beat the living fuck out of them without hurting them. Regular (i.e. "hard") shells are your typical (or not-so-typical) fully-waterproof, stand-under-a-waterfall-and-stay-dry garments, made of less bomber materials (i.e. don't expect to get dragged behind a truck and not wear a few holes in your jacket). The Doctor has been wanting a soft shell type jacket for days, but they're way too spendy and not all that practical for DFA's needs, i.e. sitting around at Smith for hours freezing balls in late Fall. Thank God for down jackets!

It's truly inspirational, if the Doctor may say so himself, which, of course he does. Perhaps you might run into DFA at the park and he can autograph it for you.

If you were a true sport climber you would be wearing two crash pads on your back with a dozen quickdraws and a boom box shoved in the middle, sandwiched around a case of red bull, a cheap digital movie camera and a copy of "How to Climb 5.12."Ugh, you've got it all wrong. Sport climbers don't want to haul all that shit around; it'll overdevelop the leg muscles, causing extra weight to tug to the anchors. And also, BBQ the Pope is the worst route at Smith Rock. Slabs are death, and to be avoided at all costs.

Gotcha. We'll just assume that Rob wants your knob, and call it freaky. [ 09-13-2002, 04:27 PM: Message edited by: Dr Flash Amazing ]

Funny, Dr. Flash Amazing once knew someone who was friends with an Ian that worked at Adidas. DFA is pretty sure it was "Ian," though, not "Iain." And maybe you don't even work at Adidas, so DFA will just shut up now. Oh, and page mo'fuggin' top, y'all. [ 09-13-2002, 03:26 PM: Message edited by: Dr Flash Amazing ]

At the risk of sounding like a total geek (like that ever happens to the Doctor around here), isn't it marmots that make the beeping sound?

The consensus, such as it is, seems to be "not give a shit."

Why don't you go beat off and come back when you're not acting like such a twat.

Ever been on someone's shit list before, pal? Perhaps it would be better if you insinuated that Wetty Big Balls is Trask, or Dru, or even Pope for that matter, but DFA is no big-walling psycho hose-beast.

So, have some issues with the poster known as pope, do you?

So true. Much better to make up some sort of silly alias such as Cpt. Caveman, Dr. Flash Amazing, Heywood Jablowme, or, uh, jkreuger.

Of course it's a guy on the right. That's Trask, you nincompoop! He's just hard to recognize out of his makeup.
