I can tell you, but I am sure my reply would be construed as a bit Rude... tee hee hee Fear not. I am here to absorb your rude comments like a sponge.

Your entire argument is that the United States shouldn't undertake multiple simultaneous operations because anything other than activity in Afghanistan is a diversion of resources. My argument with this article was that Rumsfeld put his food rather deeply in his mouth. From the tone of your responses, i

Does it take every policeman and detective in the department to drop everything and focus on the bomber alone? It better not. Otherwise that's a piss poor police department. The analogy was talking about the allocating of resources. The resources should be allocated to the bomber, or in the larger sens

One more thing, Philomedy...... If you want to delete my previous post, I'd understand. As I said, I sometimes just cannot help myself, and he's got me blacklisted, as have him blacklisted, so I took it here. I apologize. No worries. However, I deleted the post because it descended into completely unw

Would you also be in favor of the Chicago Police Department ignoring calls and investigations having to do with rapes, armed robberies, and burglaries because there are plenty of murders that haven't been solved and murderers who haven't been caught? No, but I'd have a problem with them going after a g

I have already said many times bush made a mistake rushing to war with Iraq... BUT none of you demoncraps seem to comprehend this.. somehow my admission of that is overlooked or because I refuse to bash and trash MY president, that is viewed as me "approving" or "blindly following" The point is The demoncraps are dividing the cou

After? So you must be of the belief that only one operation can be undertaken at any given time, regardless of the size and scope of the operation? I am of the opinion that the direct threat to the United States should have been taken care of first. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=cente

January 22, 2005 Washington, D.C. In light of recent, hastily made comments, Donald Rumsfeld has volunteered to open his world up for a day, hoping to dissuade the popular opinion that he is a crass and unfeeling old man, the likes of which chase little boys off their lawns for disturbing the garden trolls. Mr. Rumsfeld awoke at 9 in the mo

I was walking through campus the other day, and I ducked into one of the lecture centers in order to escape the cold. As I had some time to kill, I perused the flyers tacked up to the corkboard, which advertised everything from laptops to apartments to that damn free ipod everyone's all up in arms about. As I was looking, this little gem caught my eye: There

You're enjoying the cold, I can tell. We're going on a good 8 inches of snow here, currently. Very nice poem, subtle and unassuming. We all need to be reminded that there's beauty in everything we do.

Baths rock. You don't know what you're missing. Baths require more preparations and forethought then buckets? I guess I don't take baths properly <TAB

Somewhere along the bible I think it is said that the people who follow it should spread the word of faith and belief in the lord, yada, yada. I think that's why people do it, the ones who 'push' it. It's true tho, it's not a way of taking it in. Mostly one would get annoyed by it rather than take it into account. </TAB

Baths require a level of preparation and forethought that I'm not ready to approach. As for repairmen, there is the issue of dealing with the landlord, and scheduling all that, and getting her to pay for it, and again, the whole preparation and forethought thing. I'm sure I'll get to it eventually.

I tried one bucket, but it turned out that it was too small, and I couldn't soak myself thoroughly enough. There was far too much time between bucketfuls, and the air was making me cold. I worked out a two bucket system, where one gets poured out while the other one fills. And its not so much committal to bathing as it is committal to not being filthy

Hmm...I'd try it, but knowing myself...I'd probably end up breaking the hose, or the shower...and the shower's smart, it might decide to start working the other way around and redirect the water from the head to the faucet...and it would stop the second i got the hose off...its all so much work... buckets arent that bad...

My shower is rebel. A happy, healthy shower has that little stick thing that you pull on to make the water go from the faucet to the showerhead. A happy, healthy shower's little stick thing does its job, continues to do its job as you bathe, and then returns to its original resting place when you are finished. My shower no longer wants any part of this. <
