Anyone remember that Bruce Lee movie Fists of Fury

Caligula. A tribute to 80's cheese.

this is where I get a little hung up. I can't get over the thought that rights can be taken away. Neither can I get over the thought that they are rarely given, but usually fought for. I don't know how that fits with my feeling that rights are just an idea in the first place. See, I still don't know what I am talking about--I'm just typing from the gut. But great questions and conundrums get me going on huge read-fests and give me something to spend my money on. Oh, and foraker, I was just trying to remember another post today that mentioned something about more affluent societies becoming more lazy or some other negative trait. But you mention a positive outcome of social affluence. Another good thing to think on. Fuck,I feel like a goddam nerd. Not a geek-nerd, but a philosophy nerd. Its a sure decline from here..

Hey Peter P, can I borrow your man-doll? marie is too embarrassed to ask you herself.

Huh? i don't know why you say you can't give me a concise history of rights dev and then go on and do just that. It is a good post though--thanks. I don't want the quick internet version, I appreciate the reminder about locke and rousseau--I need to reread and remember. I'll get back to you in a coupla months after I have read enough to know (a little bit) what the hell I'm talking about.

So, where can I get one of these man-dolls?

If I only had a brain

clusterfuck.

That is the funniest post. Meanie.

And the chick brakes and ankle from running around with one stilleto one.

Like virginity? You aren't that innocent. and tell me a little about the history of "Inalienable rights". I have not come across this in the history I have read--but I have not really looked for this particular concept so I could have missed it. (I am not being facetious with this)

make sure you post the link in the spray thread on linking to links. Thanks.

even when conditions are dry.

hyperlink oh wait, the Ritalin wore off.

I saw a great t shirt at Ozzfest last week: You say tomato I say fuck you.

4. Divot no longer wants Crampless to stalk him.

That's pollution sweetie.

true but the converse is also true, no one just "takes" rights away from anyone. rights just are. this is why they inalienable. this is entirely beyond our or anyone else's control. i.e. israel has been found in violation of international law a few dozen times, and in due time they'll have to do something about it if they want to fully integrate the community of nations. People take others' rights away all the time--hence the problem. Our country uses the adjective inalienable, thus defining our concept of rights. Why do we do this? Because rights don't exist outside of ourselves. Can't see em. Can't smell em. Can't taste em. They are a concept that we control completely. Oh, same thing applies to law. And love. But not to pollution.

Were you a mountaineer back then?

No. I usually get a two minute reprieve after a great session.

and go wee wee? I read an interesting article about how osteo docs are starting to see more people with deformed foot bones due to climbing. It has some great x-rays.

Really exciting for you was it?

And you know I speak in tongues.

At least she already has the saddle bags.

I watched a couple of folks praying on their prayer rugs one evening before boarding the same plane I was boarding. I wanted to hide in the corner, cry, and shit myself. It was the only time I remember being afraid to fly.
