I used to wanna have Michael Caine's life in that movie.

Slapshot is also a great one. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is Steve Martin's best

trask named 3 good ones. also -High Plains Drifter -anything by Kurasawa -Damage -To Have and Have Not

Erik, you come up with some great articles. That guy is full of shit. Using his logic, most of us on this board might be sexually aggressive because of a need to succeed, be in control, etc. I'd like to hear what women think of that piece.

Fairweather, I agree with you, I personally don't mind eating gm grain products but we buy organic milk to avoid the BST.

In addition to that, there is a strong movement toward traceability in food (back to individual farms and even animals). But the large bulk of our grains move through a single grain-handling and distribution system that cannot separate gm and non-gm corn and soybeans. Monsanto knew this, and knew that once gm grains reached a signicant percentage in the system, the 'horse was out of the barn.' To further confuse the issue, other parts of the world claim to not use gm grains, but black-market seed penetrates into the market and contaminates supply. I personally don't mind eating meat from animals fed gm corn and soy. But I resent the Hell out of one company botching our single grain system in world trade. It is almost infeasible to run a large food or feed operation without purposely or accidently putting gm grain through it.

Thanks for your editorial comments. I'm more interested in Monsanto, and how to reverse this untraceable gm mess that it has made in our food system. And how to de-nut it from picking on the little guys.

There you have it. We have trolled out old Jim to present the environmentalist science, and the wild-catch fishermen side with them of course. Any Chilean salmon producers out there to trot out their science? In the scheme of things, only a very small amount of salmon is farmed in the coastal waters of the US...somewhat more in Canada (particularly NB)...but still largely a Chile/Norway/Iceland/Orkney/Scotland industry.

Are you sure, or is that a fish story ? Most escapees from salmon farms do not survive the wild. IMO, the whole farmed salmon vs wild salmon argument is so deeply politicized, it's hard to get a straight answer about it. Traditional fishermen don't like the fact that Chilean salmon has invaded their market---that's predictable (it's also expanded their market). Also, people in the US view coastal waters as a public resource, and don't want to see private enterprise there---also predictable. What's disingenuous is cooking up bad science to support your argument, which I believe both sides in the salmon fight have done. And actually, the gm grain issue is just as close-to-home, FS, affecting most of what you probably eat!

While I like to debunk poorly-reasoned "environmentalism" when I see it (because it is when people derive satisfaction simply from being politically correct without using their brains), I would like to point out some of the world's biggest corporate thugs and bunglers: article on Monsanto suing non-rBST dairy The idiots at Monsanto single-handedly bungled the image of gm grains in the UK, galvanizing Europe against it---regardless of whether you care about gm grains, it was a marketing disaster of Titanic proportion. Then they sold so much gm seed into the US grain system that it is nearly impossible for our grain storage infrastructure to isolate non-gm grain at a reasonable cost (Monsanto's intent, probably). Now they are suing a dairy who is trying to differentiate its product in the marketplace. They are also suing farmers who store seed, in order to protect their patents, making examples out of them through huge fines. These guys are the people we should all be after---they are assholes.

She sang about Sep 11, but when it came down to what she DID, she stayed away from New York, too scared to return. (My memory is based I think in part on listening to Howard Stern while on the road. )

Didn't Big Lou say once that some of his guys had to remove a similar guy who was perched up in a steam vent in the crater?

BUT -those look fake to me -she ran out of NYNY like a coward -most (but not all) of her music sucks in that order

I enjoyed the reminder reference in that article about the William Kennedy Smith trial. Two great memories: 1. the statements about Teddy Kennedy coming back downstairs for a drink after the bar, his dick hanging out in front of the aggrieved. 2. Steve Dunleavy doing an interview for Current Affair with a "character witness" for the aggrieved. By the time he flashed her the skin pics of herself, she tackled him on the head.

Gives a whole new meaning to "Kobe beef."

...I just heard that it was an "anal assault." Anyone want to predict where the case will end up?

While the situation is an indefensible mess there, if Saddam is produced (preferably in a bodybag), the ambushes will abate at least some.
