LOL. Like I keep telling people, I'm a teddy bear. Honest! I'm probably the nicest guy you'll ever meet. All thanks to the love of a good woman :lovecoupl Well, it is partly based on my ******** (like I said, it was part of a short story). And yes, it was when she was weeee little and weee old...

:confused: - R.

I deserve none of the thanks, young lady! But I am happy I could brighten up your day! :) Thank you! And I admit, that it's a pretty awesome thing! You're welcome. Made me feel warm and fuzzy too! Nice to hear that you liked it! Yep! Ahh Bubb. I know whence you come from. We were heart broken...

I agree! It was a wonderful thing to do! Yep! Large segemtns of humanity have always done such things! Don't fall prey to negativity! Heh! :) They have always been there, CptHa. They just haven't been "publicized" enough. Ahh but Facetious my friend! I guarantee you that similar acts happen...

Full article - R.

Taxes are evil - it's no different from theft. Tax cuts are good - but they must be implemented with spending cuts as well or else it's pointless. You can't tax less and spend more - even a 5th grader will tell you that. But everyone wants something for nothing - a painful phenomenon I observe...

Not what. Who? cheers,

Re: Misguided ... Reagan was ok - but even he meddled (Iran-Contra anyone?) Wanna like, bet money on that? And I mean "money" - I don't mean worthless Federal Reserve notes. After all, that's the only thing propping up the whole miserable charade we mistakenly call "capitalist, republican...

Ladies and gents, It's just a short tid-bit about a short story (or maybe part of a larger story as part of a book. I haven't figured it out yet). Y'all are welcome to share your views. :) cheers,

"Nobody takes our chicks... and lives!" - R.

"What's that *****?" "That's called 'frost', munchkin". She looked at the railing with astonishment and wonder, her green-blue eyes sparkling. "Fwost?" "Frost" "Fwost!", she said, confidently. I just shook my head and smiled. "Can I touch *****?" "Sure" "Will hurt?" "Nope." She looks at me...

I lock the door (mostly - irregardless of the other occupants of the house). The wife doesn't (mostly. Unless our **** are over or there are guests at home, of course). cheers,

:thumbsup: cheers, :hatsoff:

Sorry gents, The real figure is not 30 grand. That's but a trifling sum of money. (emphases mine) Watch the video Read full article I weep for my ********. not so cheerful, R.

My ******** sent this one to me: Link *sigh* I miss my ***. - R.

Way to go ***! I don't think it's "mean" at all. Sorry Prof - *** broke the "contract". *** said "No *****. And keep it locked". He didn't honor his end of the bargain - consequence, he lost the car. Simple as that. It's better he learn that his actions have consequences. cheers, R (who fully...

Gentlemen, It's an M1 'Garand'. cheers,

I really like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgjIk-_SQjA "You're the only reason I keep on coming home" cheers, :)

Actually, Dr. Paul was the reason I became a libertarian in the first place. I first came across his "work" during his 1979-1985 stint in Congress. At that time, though I disagreed with him (I was a good little statist "liberal" back then {in the 70s}... as are most 'young people') - I admired...

My dear Lady, JFK was instrumental in getting us involved in that abomination known as the Vietnam War. He calls it "their war" even as over 15,000 US service members are already in country and in the end says "it would be a great mistake to withdraw". I'm sorry, but I have no great respect...

Repeat after me... cheers, ;)

In other words - "The will to Act". God I feel old today (I blame it on the cold weather and my arthritis) :1orglaugh Thanks for that great thought, negator. cheers,

:1orglaugh :rofl: Thanks for the laughs. It's your right to disagree with Dr. Paul (as flawed and misunderstood as your opinions about him and his policies maybe). I just feel sorry that you can't even differentiate and recognize a genuine statesman from amongst the gaggle of slimy...

Read on: A hunger for America? Really? cheers,

Yep. He may not have "the riches today"; but he has earned an amount far more valuable than the riches of this world..."character". That's only if "everybody" (and trust me, most folks do not) looked it through your selfish 'vision' of "doing it for the expected reward".... rather than "doing...

BoB has many, many, many technical flaws. But it's a decent vehicle as far as "story telling" goes. Hell, even a cynical old bastard like me found some empathy amongst those suffering at Bastogne/Foy or being sent on that "Last Patrol". While I'd never served at those locations, I could...

Will Munny: "We all got it coming, ***". [Unforgiven] Hard to beat that, IMHO.

Link No. I do not believe in a "god". But I do believe in.... humanity. ...In kindness. ...In love. cheers,

....I'm from Buffalo. We eat chicken wings, not Buffalo wings. Jack Kemp is a quarterback, not a politician. We ***** Labatt Blue and love it. Mighty Taco always has preference over Taco Bell. Pop, not soda and Pepsi, not ****. They are sneakers not tennis shoes. It's a sucker, not a lollipop...

Shoulder patch of the 1st Marine Division of the United States Marine Corps. Inspired by Fred Reed (a Marine veteran. See his quote in my sig). It was also, incidentally, my ******'s unit in World War II. - R.

Continued from above... Original post here Food for thought... cheers,

To be continued....

I believe Rudyard Kipling said a thing or two about that aspect of it... Link cheers,

:1orglaugh True! True! Thanks for the laugh :) cheers,

Yes. We've never "ignored" Pakistan since 1947. We've only now started becoming "active" about their internal affairs. We never paid any attention to them prior to the past few years. :rolleyes: What burying our heads in the sand?? We've done anything BUT! We don't end up having troops in over...

Where's JFK on that list? How can you omit Lying Bastard Johnson? The two idiots most responsible for that abomination known to us as The Vietnam War? Great Society? cheers,

I would wish that they let the Pledge return to it's original intent and meaning. Just as it's wrong for those who are theists to push their set of beliefs on everyone, so is it wrong for unbelievers to push their beliefs onto everyone. That is of course, assuming that there aren't more...

What's even more chilling is now all the talking head idiots on TV are saying "the US Presidential election has just changed". Pray tell me, why? Last I recall - it was a leader in Pakistan that got hit. Not one of the jokers here. Why the fuck is it any of our business? Why is it any...

Bullshit. It's a stereotype. Plain and simple. Racists come in all manner or colors and principles. Al Sharpton who argues for preferential treatment for blacks is as much a racist as Don Black who argues for preferential treatment for whites. Stereotyping racists only perpetuates the problem...

Well, My ******** is home. Looking fairly disheveled but at least she's alive and getting better. She looks better than the last time I saw her. My wife is happy that we're all home. I'm happy we are all home. Truly happy that I have such a wonderful ******. That trip changed me. A lot. And...

"Local Hero (Wild Theme)" - Dire Straits "Catch The Rainbow" - Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow "Rhiannon" - Fleetwood Mac "Still She Cries" - Journey "Love is Blindness" - U2 There's some other jazz and blues stuff I got. cheers,

Not technically "resolutions".... more like "plans for the year ahead". * Do a repeat medical, humanitarian mission - maybe even return to Vietnam. Destination is not the concern - I'm willing to go where I'm needed. * Honor my parents memory by possibly setting up a charity or an award. I want...

Heh. Just so happens that he is my favourite super-hero. He's all human - no super natural powers and stuff. He's flawed - he has his dark past. He's often misunderstood. Hence why he's completely believable. Who would you be? cheers, PS: Next guy on the list was Captain Jack Sparrow :D

You got to be joking! That was a terrible, terrible movie - even if it had Kate Beckinsale in it. :( cheers,

One of my favs - "All hat. No cattle". Meaning: Some one who is all talk but can't back it up with actions. cheers,

http://www.nytimes.com/images/blogs/laughlines/posts/apology.jpg Link Might come in handy someday :tongue: cheers,

Well. That was one long trip. Had to cut it short - my ****** ****** away on Monday, and since I was the oldest *****, I had to rush home for the funeral. My ******** is still in Vietnam, recovering from a very bad case of Gastroenteritis. The plan is to have her return with the rest of the...
