I sure enjoyed my drafting course in college. It was at the damn of CAD, so we did most of our work on boards. Man, that was fun. But are computers contributing to the "dumbing" of the educational system? Probably. I know many people in or recently out of college that can not do simple algebra be

I am very rarely "for or against" people. I am "for or against" issues. That may be a result of my 3rd party affiliation, or it may just be the fact that I try to differentiate between a person and their opinion. I have agreed with you in some cases, and not in others. But never to the point that I thought any less of you.

I think it seems like there are more conservatives than there really are here because Draginol is rather prolific and rights many conservative articles. Really? I guess that may be true, but it seems to me he writes more libertarian articles. But I guess if you consider the world in the dual light of liber

If I had a dollar for every time I saw someone post five or six articles in a row of complete rubbish... I can't say for sure, since I don't visit those sites, but from the titles a lot of them sound like advertisements.

Welcome. I too am a quote fanatic, and I post a daily Quote of the Day article to share my collection with the JU community. And just for the record not everyone from the south talks like a hick and goes to their senior prom with their cousin, who also happens to be their uncle. Not that there is

I certainly agree that language evolves, but I have a hard time excepting some of languages more colorful evolutions. I'm not one of the cool kids who has any notion of what Snoop Dog is on about when he says stuff like "Fo-Shizzle," or what ever it is that he is muttering. So there is a certain part of me that finds my "verbiciz

Language evolves. How does it evolve? It evolves through colloquail usage. The meanings of words change or are added to, and the grammatical rules morph as well. It is traditionally considered poor english to terminate a sentence with a preposition, or to begin a sentence with a conjunction, but I've talked to several linguists and grammatical scholars that consider these to be acceptable today. The purpose of language is to express thoughts. As

Apdelong31 appears to disagree with my statement about disagreement not equaling being a hack or bitch. I still think it is a fine statement but so be it Heh, I think even she would call herself a bitch. I don't think she would consider that an insult.

I feel for ya. I've had so many problems with various phone companies across the nation that I finally decided to only use my cell phone. I adamantly refuse to get a land line. Of course, companies don't really have that option, but at least I don't have to deal with facilities at my work place.

I think they have to moderate the platform. They need to get the centralists on their side, and advertising leftist ideals will not do that.

Bakerstreet I hope you are right. Maybe they are finally trying to do something right, but I would still like to knwo what was on the documents that made them worth jail time.

As much as I do comment on political articles, there is a lot that I hold back. But I don't really get disturbed by the opinions of people with whom I disagree. Most of the time I just ignore those people/comments and get on with my life. Sometimes I'm feeling a little contrary and decide to chime in. As an example I

I have many more, but this my friend, is a journal for my philosophy class, not a political rant page. Sure sounded like a political rant. And you did post it under the Politics subject. If you did not want comments you should not have allowed them.

This is sad that the future of the nation doesn't even give a damn. One person in the bar was stupid, so that is an indication that your generation doesn't give a dam?

So I asked him "Well if you feel so incredibly safe, why aren't you out defending our country? Why would he feel the need to go out and defend the country if he already felt safe? That sounds like the kind of thing you would do if you felt the country was not safe.

I'm completely amazed that we don't have a flood of Moore supporters on this thread. Goes to show that there isn't much to defend, I think... Maybe it is just that Moore supporters are not interested in reading my articles, or they think responding is below them. Both of which are valid positions. Or mayb

So what are you going to do? Reveal to us that this fellow is a fake? If you don't like what he has to say then ignore him. Words are easy.
