Where is the constitutional right to take drugs. I know you make a point of it, but don't be obtuse. You've had your ass handed to you on this issue a number of times. It isn't about the prohibited behavior, though if there's no right to take drugs then there's absolutely no right for you to do mos...

Back in the bad old days in the inner cities, people in rough neighborhoods would carry an extra wallet with a few bucks, an old shut down credit card and maybe a picture of somebody's kids. When you got held up, you gave the mugger the decoy wallet and went on your way with the one that really matt...

A) It's early days.

B) I hope this abomination dies on the vine.

Yeah, well, pagan rites wind up costing more than they're worth.

We should be careful that we don't pay the price.

My table would look most like those in Mongolia and Turkey. Still too many grains and starches, but close.

I take it that the French people are eating cats?

So the other day when I went to the DMV to renew my DL, the receptionist that was telling me what other documents I needed but didn't have happened to be a little person, and very officious. All I could think was," Goddamn Lannisters". In Florida we can renew online. Very simple, and avoi...

The shutdown/ default scare was stupid tactics. The " win" in that scenario wouldn't have de funded Obamacare. This might, and has been my intention all along. Maybe there will be enough votes to outright kill it in a couple of years, but as of now, there simply is not. More weight. Actua...

Ok, so one is not related to the other. What threat axis do you see regarding nuclear weapons? Don't say that Jesus told you.

I just want to know how Ponzi scheme= global nuclear annihilation.

Your vision of green housing is the future of growing plants for food. Plants and animals for food, though, are short term. Know what a Draeger diving rig is? We'll have it for your gut. At any rate... I am a longstanding advocate of the idea of cascade failure. It can get quite bad, quite quickly, ...

Actually, even if I'm using that scenario, which is improbable, I have the answers. As much answers as there are, anyway; that 90% die off in 90 days would be pretty indiscriminate. The point is, Tinker won't be a twitching pile of jelly inside of 72 hours. Other than death due to homicides, acciden...

You may want to look into actual data on that. I have. See, this is the difference between me and you on this. I don't have to look at any data on it. I've done it, often enough that I don't have to doubt it, at all. I know you think I'm somehow soft or something- or at least you'd like to provoke ...

Oh, I've followed all the usual prescriptions. The problem is that the great bulk of America wants it done. They may not say it, but deprive them of the things that are got by such activities,in Pakistan and elsewhere, and watch the screaming begin.

Personally, I think it's the berets.

What's appalling in all these masturbatory fantasies of living life like a Frazetta painting is that these are humans that are being spoken of as if they were monsters. Anybody that thinks they can just blast down waves of starving women and children with a smile on their face has a serious nut loos...

In fairness, pretty much everyone laughs at the French.

Sorry, Alex.

I was in on the early Gracie era ; a friend and I started mutating our training to be more widely varied as a result of our observations of the first three years of the sport. As time went on, you did indeed begin to see professional fighters that trained nearly all day. I have come to hold that any...

The op merely states that a problem with Zack Morris/Richard Dawkins et al atheism is that people have religious experiences without any central planning, and the Zack Morris Richard Dawkins deprogramming model is wholly unprepared for this reality. Except that they aren't, and there are solid phys...

3D Printing Umbilical Cord Clamps in Haiti PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (sentinel.ht/Make) - At first glance, Haiti might seem an odd destination for a 3D printer. 3D printers are cutting edge. They’re in the news. They’re printing amazing things, from custom prosthetics, to fully functional engines, to b...

Mr. Perfect wrote:Erm, the Iraq War was popular at a rate of 20% by 2006, remind me when that war ended.

Wow, yeah, I guess the end of popular participation is maybe 1500 people saying something to a poll caller before dinner. You're totally right, we did our part.

Hope God agrees.

Any time you mention my name, all you get is an FU.

Nope. Still sticking with the American people. If the people wanted it stopped it would stop tomorrow. All are, or will be, punished.

The American people.
