The facts are simple. Obama is a Socialist. You can wrap him in as many layers of sheep’s clothing as you wish. Look up Fabian Socialist and you will understand. Socialism does not work. Examples are: Russia Cuba China North Korea. The new health care is Socialized Medicine and one giant leap forward for the Fabian socialist. That’s it I’m done, I’m out of here.

RuMR, It really bothers me when others try to tell me about how I should or should not raise my son and daughter. I never say it, but I really want to call them all “stupid”. But I guess the reality is they are not raising children. I have seen many of your posts over the past few years and can draw some basic assumptions. 1.) You are a normal person. 2.) You are a loving and caring parent. 3.) You know what is best for your children and doing a great job! Keep it up.

I am ashamed because I know the answer….

Look at those squinty eyes, the lack of a chin, pinned back ears. Yes that’s the one. You just can’t trust any squirrel that looks like that! You know that same relationship between books and their cover…. Probably a democrat!

Dang, she, he, it, is big. Is that the notorious squirrel-anator?

I love this threac, but sorry, when it comes to climbing tools, or FF, I just can’t let this pass with out a little antidote. I was at FF one day and my son, now 13, was oh about 5 or 6 at the time, when some how or some way he got his hands on a climbing tool that was the perfect size for him as a mountaineering ax. He proceeded to explain to me how he wanted it and quickly justified how he NEEDED it. He went so far is to show me how it was the perfect size for him. Then he got it into his mind that I just HAD to get it for him. When he realized he was not going to get it we had an in store melt down. The dude helping me at FF was great. FF had a display tent up so we got my son into it. We asked him if he could lie down and test to for me. He was out cold, fast asleep, in 60 seconds.

oops, let me try this again, I am a little rusty.... Yeah, I saw that and the current temp at stevens is 25!

Yeah, I saw that, and the current temperature at Stevens is 25. Yahooooooooo!

I went for a 5 mile run at lunch.

Very nice indeed. "...to get past lonliness by embracing solitude" Is this an original or did you barrow it?

proctology? Let me guess, you have extensive paper work that you keep on that study.

Hasenfeffer!!!

No, not English Lit. guess again.

I read through your initial rant, but I am not going to read through all of the other replies. Suffice it to say, growing up and through High School I hated literature. At the UW I learned to love it, BA Language and Literature. I have been a veracious reading for the past 25 years. The last classic I read was Victor Hugo’s epic,”Le Miserable.” (It was a translation, but unabridged.) The analytical skills I developed at University help me enormously in understanding Victor Hugo. You can just pick up and read something like Le Mis, but unless you can use analytical skills then it is just a meaningless story, interspersed with history lessons. After applying your newly found skills you can find an epic classic dealing with the ongoing struggle between justice, and mercy. Furthermore you need to delve into the idea that Justice and Mercy can not exist with out the other. Then you can get even deep on how Justus and Mercy look like when personified in a personality. Finally, you need to ask yourself is Victor Hugo really writing a series of essay on the different kinds of misery of the human experience and then applied it to a story line, supported by all of the above points. It is quite in depth – if you want to look. Be very careful now because once you take the pill of understanding literature the rabbit hold is very, very deep and there is not coming out….
