spoken as if you had the capacity to deliver any....

OMG Chuckie we feel so guilty now your empathy and wisdom is always such a guiding light thanks for saving us and giving us hope for a better future for all through spray and for single handedly taking all of this so seriously your're the only one we're all so lucky down here to have you on board!!!!

I love how some idiots on this site convince themselves that they actually understand what other people understand.

To all those who bought Esplanades, vacations, home additions, cabins, and boats with their equity: Fuck You. Sell it at a loss. Go bankrupt. Fuck off. To Obama: Fuck you, too. We're not helping 'the poor keep their homes'. We're helping speculating, overconsuming assholes, rich and poor. The rest of us don't want to pay for these fucksticks and their excesses. So some of them have to cram into a cheap apartment for a while? Couldn't happen to a more deserving group of folks. And, BTW, all stimulus packages are bullshit. That's like your right hand borrowing from your left hand. Zero stimulus.

Serenity's "creating a battlespace" theory has all the complexity and reality of a video game. Some points that seem to have been left out: 1) Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia has been responsible for only a fraction of the bombings and attacks in Iraq. The majority of the violence has been brought on by rival groups within the country. It's a turf war, not a terrorist war. Prior to our invasion, these groups coexisted; it was our invasion and the destabilization that it caused, accelerated by the the sudden unemployment of 200,000 armed soldiers and an early tolerance of thugs like M.Sadr that created the violent rivalries we see today. 2) By what measure have we cleaned Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia out of Iraq? With our previously stated HUMINT deficit, how could we even know this? The violence levels certainly wouldn't indicate any such positive trend. 3) Terrorist organizations such as Al Qaeda did not move wholesale into Iraq to be destroyed by Captain America's mighty shield. They recruited in country from an ample supply of disgruntled Iraqis. They have spread and grown around the world, and are now operating, very effectively, in many countries, in part spurred on by their publicized successes against U.S. forces in Iraq. One previous comparison is worthy of repetition, however; As what happened to the Soviets in Afghanistan, we've had our asses handed to us by failing in nearly every single one of our conflict objectives, all the while losing 3 trillion dollars worth of our economic empire, creating a more dangerous and less stable East Asia, and flushing our international credibility, respect for human rights, and cooperative relationships down the toilette. We are a poorer, weaker, less moral, and more vulnerable country after the invasion of Iraq.

So show us the evidence already, General. It's deja vu all over again.

Woah. Who bothered to brush the dust off of this one? Must be a slow news day. Yawn.

Remember, it's NON-SECULAR. Just ask any Coloradan ass candle.

Near non-existent. The endemic "mayhem" is almost completely non-secular. Wow. That settles that. BTW, Bob, kudos for "gerbil spelunker". Nice one.

Polish Bob for President.

Saddam wasn't our problem to make worse. And it's just like a clueless Republican (and yes, you do tow the party line, so don't pull that 'independent' bullshit on us) to pretend that an Iraqi civil war has yet to begin. Just what the fuck do you call all the secular mayhem that's been going on over there since 2003, dumbshit?

That is the logic of an unsegmented worm, with apologies to unsegmented worms everywhere. Since Saddam had nothing to do with any terrorist attacks on the U.S., his tenure is wholly uncorrulated with such events. It therefore makes just as much nonsense to state "Certainly we've had no more attacks on US soil since then, but would we have if...". Some possible substitutions might include: ...Paris hadn't gone to jail. ...Britney hadn't shaved (her head). ...Eliot Spitzer had Just Said No.

Keep moving and you'll stay warm during the day wearing light clothing. Maybe you do. I am perfectly capable of moving and freezing my ass off at the same time. Maybe I should duct tape you to me as a way to cool off.

Hard to say, given the recent blip. You certainly don't know one way or the other, just like the rest of us, chowderhead.

Keep moving and you'll stay warm during the day wearing light clothing. Fawk that shite! There's just no reason not to bring a 1 lb down bag and avoid such discomfort (and the toll it takes the next day). If you're worried about weight, leave your bivvy sack (which weighs a lb or more) at home, and take a 3 oz emergency bivvy sack (EMS brand or other) in case the weather goes south, and just sleep under the stars in your 1 lb down bag. Think outside the (bivvy) bag.

You would have been much, much better off had you bought in 2002.

Define "cheated" for me. Includes while engaged? Pre-engagement? Doing two girls at the same time, but not in the same room? Just need some clarification there before I throw down. i have never fooled around on my wife before or during our marriage....clear enough? Pretty clear. You're not alone. Never cheated on the wife. Ever. You're not in the club unless you've never cheated on ANYONE, EVER, Mr. Goodie Two Shoes.

Psssst...Billcoe: They're all arrogant pricks.

I quit drinking AND cheating, so now I just sit in my padded cell, quietly humming "Glory Days", while slowly gumming on a stale piece of crustless toast.

The longer this campaign goes on, the more Hillary Clinton and her smarter-than-thou posse sucks.

Why is everyone so timid about agreeing with me here? I'm right, like, 100% of the time.

uhh...gotta disagree on that one...i for one, haven't cheated... You've never cheated on a girlfriend? What, did you marry the first girl you met?

Metolius makes a 7.8 mm rope (the Monster) rated for 6 falls as a double, which means you could use a single strand for your application. It's also rated as a twin. You'll need to figure out your prussik system on such a thin line, however.

OK, devotchkas, you want some advice from Old Spanky about cheaters? No? Tough shit, here it is anyway. When you're 'getting serious' with a guy, let him know calmly but in no uncertain terms that you need monogamy (and why you need it), and let him know that you'll walk, immmediately, without negotiation, no second tries, if he doesn't follow through on that. If they guy's a playa, he'll probably opt out...too much trouble. If the guy's a fringe playa, one who tries to get away with as much as he can while maintaining a positive image to the rest of the world, he'll think twice about continuing the relationship. If the guy's cheated before but reformed and likes you, he'll likely comply. If the guy's never cheated...wait, that's impossible.
