I thought Dan Howett was a media creation? Howett doesn't really exist or does he? I have my doubts about j_b too.

People having fun or this? Halloween message from Jack Chick "This Halloween, millions of lost kids will come to the front doors of Christians… asking for a treat. What an amazing witnessing opportunity. In a single night, God’s people could witness to millions of hurting, lost children who desperately need the gospel simply by dropping a Chick tract or two into each Trick-or-Treat bag." 7 reasons you should use Chick tracts on Halloween Get the gospel to all the lost kids (and their parents) in your neighborhood. Reach people you couldn't reach any other time of year. It's easy! Just drop Chick tracts into waiting, open bags. It's convenient! You don't even have to leave home. It's fun! Kids love them. Many will thank you for the unique gift. It's a great way to train your own kids to use this witnessing opportunity. You'll rejoice, knowing you turned a pagan holiday into a witnessing time. Hey, I'm not poking fun at casual, 'live and let live' Christians but Halloween is a time to get your funk on. I don't need any gospel crap just some plain ol' fun, tricks and treats....

I've not had any problems with Macromedia Flash Player so all I can suggest is this link to the Macromedia support page. You might find an answer there. Macromedia Flash Player Troubleshooting FAQ Good luck. The video is definitely worth seeing & hearing.

Have you seen this already? In 1969, Neil Armstrong made history by becoming the first man to walk on the moon, uttering the immortal phrase, "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Or did he? Previously suppressed footage discovered by blogjam shows that Armstrong's reaction was a great deal more uninhibited than history suggests, and that a hasty editing job was needed to prepare the astronaut's moment of glory for broadcast. Neil Armstrong: The Awful Truth Requires Macromedia Flash Player 6 and preferably a broadband connection. Turn on your speakers!!

Oh, BTW j_b, did you know that testosterone elicits two bodily responses: (to put it bluntly) Fuck it or kill it. Of course, most of us don't go overboard with the killing end. Most of that impulse is sublimated into competitive activities.

perhaps you could explain the difference between losing a contest and being declared a winner? disappointing. you have accustomed us to better discussion of the issues and now you attack the messenger. as you know, you won't be alone around here No need to. It's a done deal, i.e., the transfer of power. I assume you support the Democratic platform. That platform is made up of established positions concerning policy issues. You must also be familiar with the saying, "Choose your battles." Democrats have realized that this particular issue may be a losing battle and have consequently modified their emphasis on gun control. I personally don't see the issue of gun violence as having a simple solution. I put guns in italics because it's arguable that maybe this is more of a moral issue concerning, e.g., sanctity of life. If this issue is crouched in these terms then maybe you can hammer away at inconsistencies, which is preferable in a logical debate. However, the deciding factor often becomes an emotional one so one has to look at how we develop emotional beliefs. Perhaps there is no ideal solution even if the answer that is proposed is multipronged and complex. For instance, what good would an army be if the people were too pacific to kill?

Duh j_b. Who's sittin' in the White House? As far as the gun control issue, j_b, your mind is a steel trap. Once you latch onto a political idea, the notion of flexibility in your thought process withers.

Mmmmm......segue. How does this make you feel?

GNOME LIBERATOR!! Fuk yeah!

Voice of KFC employee: "Order when you're ready." Me: "Yeah, I'll take one bucket of substitute gratification. No..., make that a family meal of substitute gratification." Voice of KFC employee: Ok, your order will be $22.54. Please pull ahead.

Reflects contemporary malaise of powerlessness, robotic existence subsumed to corporate rule but perceived by one as Panglossian, the best of all possible worlds. I consume, therefore I am.

“Honestly, it’s a little tougher than I thought it was going to be,” Lott said. In a sign of frustration, he offered an unorthodox military solution: “If we have to, we just mow the whole place down, see what happens. You’re dealing with insane suicide bombers who are killing our people, and we need to be very aggressive in taking them out.” GOP unity is strained by attacks

Yeah I tried this on several posts about a week ago. Got ambiguous results on one avatar.

I'd say there were a lot of factors that played into Gore's loss of the contest in general. Apparently enough voters were turned off by Gore's gun control stance that, in this round, the Dems are downplaying this issue.

The Minutemen and I'll throw this in here too I also wouldn't mind hearing some Fugazi.

“The newspaper that is true to its highest mission will concern itself with the things that ought to happen tomorrow, or the next month, or the next year, and will seek to make what ought to happen come to pass…the highest mission of the press is to render public service.” –Joseph Pulitzer You can interpret Pulitzer's quote however you want it.

Unrelated but I hear that private accounting companies and presumably our government is outsourcing the processing of our IRS tax returns to India to save $$$.

baby

So I read this wacky news story this morning about an organization called The Hebrew Battalion who have proposed using swine as guard animals in the West Bank. "Pigs' sense of smell is far more developed than that of dogs," he said. "The pigs will also be able to identify weapons from huge distances, and walk in the direction of the terrorist, thereby pointing him out. "Moreover, this animal is considered to be dangerous by Islam and, according to the Muslim faith, a terrorist who touches a pig is not eligible for the 70 virgins in heaven." BBC NEWS--Middle East ...a terrorist who touches a pig is not eligible for the 70 virgins in heaven. Air drop crates of pigs into terrorist infested areas!

Klenke, you were a boy scout weren't you? You sure sound like one. Radio refers to the radio frequency spectrum. Radio frequency communications is the long wavelength, low frequency range of the EM spectrum. The microwave frequency ranges covers TV communications and radar. The millimeter wave range is also used in communications. All of these communications wavelengths are regulated by FCC. I saw no reference in the FCC site that discussed regulation of the infrared light or visible light ranges, which are higher frequency, shorter wavelength than the radio and microwave frequency spectrum.

I thought this thread was about the music of WEEN. "Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up"
