Just to clarify: My original post didn't really address "felons" in the military - it was directed more towards the opinion some hold that: "so what? It might actually be a good idea! Help shape those bastards out. Let the felons do the fighting!" cheers,

Hmmm... Captain Nemo John Clark (Kelly) Dirk Pitt There's more, I'm sure. cheers,

If I'm going to war - I want volunteers around me. People that are there because they WANT to be there - from their hairy noses to their callused feet. None of these ersatz soldiers. No thanks! The Army is the Army. It is neither a correctional facility, nor a home for delinquents. To use it...

I'm still puttin' money on my Sabres! :cool:

Hi Dave, I've dedicated most of my healthcare career towards fixing up ****. What you described elicits "empathy", but no compassion for the woman. I won't presume that "her baby will have a messed up life". I know the 'usual' end results of "presumptions"; especially with '********'. As far...

Hi Dave, My 'day to day' job involves taking care of the sick, the wounded, the dying. I would just like to know what Elwood meant by "compassion" as it applies to his thread... cheers,

What about 'compassion' ?

If anyone decided to ignore my signs and still break into my home - they'd be in for a painful, oft-near-fatal, "surprise". No 'disappointment' for sure! ;) cheers,

My hometown is Buffalo, NY. I know you folks up in the NE are going through hard times! I've had relatives from Niagara, Rochester, Watertown call me with snow reports all of last week. cheers,

Had a pretty fucked up night/day. Why do people insist on driving like lunatics just because they own 4x4/AWD? Do they think friction, visibility and physics somehow do not magically apply to them? Volunteer department wanted me to stay on tonight as well but I'm already working the hospital...

By whom? The FDIC? The FDIC has only about a dollar invested in government bonds for every $100 in insured deposits. What good is the FDIC unless the FED is ready to pump money into the economy to stem a tide of bankruptcies? (Now think about that: If the FED is able to inflate, why should...

I'm in the boonies here in the MidWest. Everybody gets the day off, except us in the volunteer fire/paramedic department. Headin' out to work!

Are they Swedish? cheers,

That's kinda what I was referring to...

Legzman: Good on you for trying it. I did it when my **** were very young and came away unscathed and my **** have grown up to be (largely) responsible, mature adults. It's a lot of responsibility. Tread carefuly, but tread surely. No greater job than raising a *****. No greater reward than...

You've shot at or been shot at before? Just curious - want to know how you reach such a glib conclusion, since obviously it such a simple matter to you. cheers,

Personally, I'd be more bothered about: Full story cheers,

Read more about Red Hand Day here... cheers,

I just had an emotional, gut reaction to the circumstances of the story: Mudfoot catching hell while his sweetheart is busy banging someone else. Happens in every war I guess - saw enough of it in the past... Agreed. Like I said: "Adultery is disgraceful and disgusting!" cheers,

So why is it entirely the fault of media? Shouldn't those who "consume" demand "better" ? The choice is theirs after all. Patronize the ones you think are responsible and boycott the rest. If everyone with a social conscience did it, we wouldn't be having this discussion. As always -...

It's been 40 years - nothing has changed. You, of all people, should have known that. Don't blame the media 100% - they only serve what the American people want. They only share part of the blame. cheers,

Terrible! Terrible news! What a tragedy! :( What possessed that man to hit his own flesh and ***** so hard that it made her lose consciousness? No, back then it was just ok to publicly lynch people, stand around and get photographed too [for example]. Sorry, but a good section of humanity has...

My thoughts exactly - only I DID manage to rep him on your behalf :) (and mine too ;)) cheers, PS: About your tides theory? I wouldn't know. I'm not superstitious or anything, but boy does the staff (nursing AND non nursing) NOT like working full moon nights! LOL

Re: where is everyone from? Damnit Fox! Now I have a craving for Loganberry! :(

The largest, most active sexual organ in the body is the brain ;) My ER nurses swear that the full moon brings out the crazies - y'know? The ones who pour foam expanders down their butts, or use the "jelly" as in "strawberry jelly" for 'lubrication, or sit on a toilet seat for 4 days looking for...

Comfortable leather shoes. I recently bought some boots from an Army surplus joint. I guess I'm just used to clod hoppers *shrug* BNF might be able to give you hints on Italian leather ;) cheers,

**** like this just completely pisses me off! Adultery is disgraceful and disgusting! cheers,

Not exactly related to the nuke tests - but something just a bit earlier than them. The Marshall Islands were of immense strategic value during WWII - and this fact is highlighted by the great lengths each side went to to capture and retain them. However, before the US could recapture the...

Push something long enough and I guarantee you WILL perforate the abdomen. Perforate = ******** into your gut = sepsis = infection = death. Pure and simple. Moral of the story: Don't shove long things into yourself! cheers,

You mean $12 billion of tax dollars that "didn't exist"! Those 12 billions came from borrowed money - OR the government simply printed them from the press... since our tax revenue increases certainly don't match the expenses. Either case - American tax payer loses. Borrowing money costs...

My **** grew up watching this stuff. As corny as they seem now - back then, I actually didn't mind them watching this. Anyone else remember this show? cheers,

I weep for my ********... .. for they will have to reap what we have sown.

Catherine Bell?

I still say Wilma. Any woman who can put up with Fred Flintstone deserves a medal! :) *Looks over shoulder for nodding approval of the Wife* cheers, :tongue:

AFA : $245 Bn is a conservative estimate. Given monetary inflation, the real cost will easily rise as the years pass. By the way - $245 Bn doesn't include intrest rate and costs of borrowing. As such, the real figure as of right now itself is far higher than $245 Bn. You should listen to your...

Wima Flintstone

In your highly vaunted and valued opinion of course! Ladies and gentlemen, Reverend ********** would of course pass judgement on sundry topics which don't bear upon his person directly, but which might show an opening for him to spout more of his 'personal opinions on politics' of course...

Again, you reduce free market libertarianism to a punch line - refusing to accept or acknowledge it's real meaning. You, for one; don't ever "think" as a 'free marker libertarian'. Fox - you really have no excuse as regards libertarianism... now that you have high speed internet. But hey! It's...

:1orglaugh Gee! And I thought only "Americans" could be stereotyped! How naieve I am!:rolleyes: Good one, Staff Sergeant! :hatsoff:

*groan* Please! Not Al Gore again! Al Gore refuses to discuss or debate his skeptics - doesn't lend credence to his 'notions' in my opinion. The globe is warming? Wow! No kidding! :rolleyes: They said that the world was on the brink of the 'next ice age' two decades ago and that civilization...

Nothing wrong. Just typed up a response. Posted it. Then thought otherwise and deleted it. Didn't want to furthur participate in this thread - has long gone off track and returned back to familiar America bashing. I'm tired of people hypocritically ******* my country and her policies - whilst...

.. Never mind.

Any parent who has buried their own ***** ... ... well, let's just leave it at : The 1st of May has never been the same since 1977. My ******** grew up without the elder ****** they might have known. We should all be so lucky to consider an event such as this to warrant a "crisis" label. You...

The Crossing Guard If you haven't seen it - do it at the earliest. A powerful film about grief and regret.

.. and the growing popularity of the internet doesn't help much either. I never managed to get much ***** post puberty. Bit of a wild ***** (hey, it was the 60s!). Got into the Army and lost tons of ***** there. Got out of the Army, but now had **** - bye bye *****. Now that the **** are...

Cool Hand Luke It is my unabashed opinion that Paul Newman is one hell of a good actor.

Even if they were... ... why rely on advice from someone who hasn't laid eyes on the problem? No vital signs, no labs, no history, no nothing. No practitioner worth their salt will say anything other than what everyone here has already said: "Go see your doctor". Dear ninetysixcavy, You've...

Thanks. Agreed. cheers,

Really? You can "see" gravity? I know you can see an "apple fall to the ground" - that doesn't mean you "see" gravity --- you just see "an apple fall to the ground". You ascribe this to the 'Theory of Gravity' --- a very sound theory that I agree with. But you don't "see" gravity .... anymore...
