Depends. Are college chapels 'fair'? Are they considered 'special treatment' if you're, say, an atheist and prefer to spend your Sunday mornings in a brew pub but the college refuses to build one? Is 'fairness' equality of treatment or equality of opportunity or what? If you don't avail yourself of a chapel, are you being denied an opportunity? Are colleges merely responding to customers demands (as evinced by the growing poshness of dormitories) and thus merely 'competing for business'? What then?

The point is local or state governments don't have the constitutional power to decide immigration issues or make laws pertaining thereto. The court is basically whacking down the mole of local governments charting their own course on the matter. How do you decide the fate of illegal immigrants if states and cities start making their own laws on such things? What if you entered into one state that said you were legal and then moved to another state that said you were illegal or vice versa? Laws exist to fine employers of illegal immigrants. They simply aren't well enforced (lack of man power, lack of political will, lobbyist/industry resistance).

I recall seeing Frank Shorter (gold medal in the marathon in the 72 Munich Olympics for those of you too young to remember) on the Tonight Show. They hooked him up to a treadmill and monitored his heart rate. Before he started, it was something like 36 or 38. He started running and it went up to about 60 and then dropped back down to his resting heart rate again......I'm sure that's a sign of how ill he was.

Chipper and Knuckleboom? Sounds like the title of a 70's or 80's 'buddy' movie.

How else do you expect them to call forth Satan when budget bills are being voted on or when it's re-election time?

Anyone have a look at the Mountain Hardwear Viperine 3 tent yet? Seems like it has decent headroom and a nice vestibule. The pole system seems kind of funky.

had some klipsch's for several years.

One shouldn't group the professionals with the amateurs

had an interesting brush with greatness this weekend. i'm embarrassed to say i didn't even realize it at the time. in preparation for buying my first motorcycle i was taking the novice rider's class at sand point park. in walks this tall lanky dude that looks like he's channeling the rock-star/biker poser look. um....well....much to my chagrin....he actually was a rock star. turns out Duff McKagan ,formerly of Guns N Roses and now of Velvet Revolver, was firming up his rock-star/biker street cred.

shameless bump you posers!
