is that before or after shooting their dog and destroying their house with a tank?

His ropes were also weathered. This is all according to Wiki, of course.

Iran made several warm diplomative gestures towards the United States immediately after 911, expressing sympathy and condemning the act. They also supported the U.N. effort to oust the Taliban from Afghanistan. The U.S. (well, Cheney) snubbed these gestures, and so a rare opportunity to begin burying the hatchet with that country was squandered by the Bush administration. It didn't jibe with the regime change plans the "thought leaders" (Cheney) have had for Iran since the mid nineties. Since then, I'm a Dinner Jacket has replaced his more moderate predecessor, Iraq has (predictably) exploded, and the U.S. has repeated threatened Iran with "serious consequences", which in Bush speak clearly means military action. As a result, reconciliation has become more and more difficult. The shame is that it didn't need to be that way: the Bush administration chose this confrontational course.

dano was anything but a genius... ur prolly right, I read somewhere that he was super smart with all his jump calculations though. ...except his last one.

Under Bush, the U.S. has begun developing new nuclear weapons; extremely provocative. In addition, Russia ratified the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty in 2000. Under Bush, the U.S. has yet to do so. Also very provocative. Dumbass.

Well, assuming that they didn't build the enclosure to intentionally allow the cat to roam, they must have not been aware of how talented the cat was. I really doubt anyone's done exhaustive jump tests for full grown Siberian tigers using asshole teenagers for bait, so such a gap in the zoo's expertise is understandable. It also seems that the SF Zoo has a pretty good track record as compared to some others: Escapes from the LA Zoo What we know about animal intelligence and physical capabilities is pretty limited. They continue to surprise us. Dumbass.

The Zoo has since posted these plackards: "Warning: 1,500 pound cats are potentially hazardous and dangerous. When abusing big cats you accept full responsibility for your safety as well as the safety of others around you. You are personally responsible for learning the proper techniques and good judgment necessary for proper abuse of all big cats. The specimen information provided by the San Francisco Zoo is not a substitute for qualified personal instruction. Learn the proper abuse of big cats and understand their limitations. Inspect all big cats before abuse and avoid any cats that are famished, worn out, or are not fat through thorough and frequent injestion."

There is one lesson we can all take away from this: Never taunt a 1,500 pound cat while sporting a "RATT" T shirt.

Juan taun of snaffle, my baby's Juan taun of snaffle....

I thought the incident was manufactured, until I found out that Geraldo was doing the investigative reporting.

"You will explode after two minutes"??? Sounds like that was dubbed in from a German shiza flick.

The universe is coldhearted. There is no "deserved" involved; that's injecting a human construct into what is a simple interaction between a young man and nature. The Happy Meal did something stupid which resulted in the termination of his planetary visit. People, young and old, cull themselves from the population in this manner all the time. In the final analysis, its not personal. It's just business.

Has the Navy commented yet on the water skiers behind those speedboats?

Stimulus Package: The ultimate self-eating watermelon.

Running of the Voles

But, then your package couldn't be considered unless one ascribed to homoeopathy. Not sure how you obtain your information, but it certainly isn't anywhere near the size of the telephone pole firmly lodged up your ass. You were the one who insisted on using your tongue to "forestall future fecal impactions". And, although your tongue dwarfs your appendage lower, it really isn't larger than normal. A pity the peccadillos of the sexually insecure. ...more's the pity that you didn't have that pole milled smooth (and staples removed) before insertion.

if screwing your tits didn't make me gay, i don't think affectations such as "oh my" will, honey bunch. now i get to go to work, gripper boy. booyea. You lust after my ViceGripper, Sense, but you shall not have it.

Don't use the phrase 'oh my' Sense. It sounds ghey. Democrats GOOD, Republicans EVIL, mkay?

Meow.

We can, to a very large part, thank Jimmy for the overthrow of the Shah, the return of Khomeini, and a lot of our current problems with Iran. Caught you peeking again, KKK! Nope. The Shah was Nixon's idea. And, (need I even mention this?) Carter didn't order the Islamic Revolution either. I know, it's a surprise to some, but nations do have their own internal politics.

Yeah, Billy was pretty dumb, but at least he spelled his name correctly.

[quote=sirwoofalot[ Oh and what about Jimmies ardent support of the miserably failed non aliened movement? Earthspeak, please.

Carter has always been a very liberal Christian. He did not attempt to enforce fundamentalist policies on the rest of America. And I did not know that Carter ordered the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Thanks for the update. The rise of the Taliban was a bit more complicated that your statement; the Islamic revolution in Iran, the rise of Wahhabism in Saudi Arabia, etc, but I'll leave it to you to do your own research on that.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M MELTIIIIIINNNNNNGGGGGGG!!!!!................

He didn't get the text message in time to add that one. At least he died doing what he loved.
