I have yet to meet someone who is upset by their show for 'political' reasons. The Team America movie ticked off a few of my more liberal friends, but they still ended up humming the theme song at work occasionally. Anti-stupid crosses all political factions, I say.
How can you feel good about your new 'gas-sipping' SUBARU when U R A BUS. man I hate the phrase 'gas-sipping', reminds me that the exhaust pipe is the size of a straw
I've looked through the comments above, and think I could add something. Rather than focus on the situations parents face or the various reasons for the lack of responsibility, consider a bizarro law of supply and demand. Supply and demand of responsibility. If society/gub-ment supplies that parenting responsibility (effectiveness be damned), less is required of *all* parents. Less demand on the parents is also less control from the

I'm very glad to read this. It led me to think on a couple things... So it seems that a lot of guns, ammo, and explosives were successfully diverted from their original purpose. I know that Saddam's Iraq had crazy stockpiles of this kind of thing, but honestly think that most of it now flows into the country from well-to-do meddlers. Those folks have got to be pissed when they hear news of this kind. I've found that when
Perhaps the President is not interested in simply considering the UN irrelevant. I believe it is accepted that the UN needs some improvement. How so? Start by following the rules, regulations, laws agreed upon and avoid allowing those special exceptions to render such things meaningless. I would expect Bolton to be much more effective than people think. Is it insulting to call someone out who has been saying one thing and doing the ex
very interesting indeed. The Newsmax link seems to be broken, and the other links are older than I expected. The topic is very hot and important to all of us. Abandonment of the responsibility and trust placed in some leaders for the sake of political maneuvering - it is something I won't ignore nor forget. I'm guessing this issue will get some serious MSM coverage when it becomes too outrageous to hide. One rea
This article reminds me of a novel by Stephen Baxter called "Manifold:Time" It addressed the bureaucratic NASA vs. the bootstrap-startup space entrepreneur. One of the plot bits that stuck with me was his plan to snag metallic asteroids as well as giant blobs of fresh water, sending them into orbit about Earth. Fiction - and a bit unwieldy later in the novel, but I wanted to share an alternative to nationalistic/militarist
Interesting story. Can you lead me to it? I believe it is a common if not privately-held view that this scale of 'helping the downtrodden' is rare. Lots of humanitarian efforts go on all the time, but there had better be plenty of publicity and pats on the back for those organizations. I think the U.N. wouldn't set foot near Yusufiyah unless there were huge political advantage to be had. (omitting comment about farmer's daughters
Zoomba: I'm with ya man. I've been playing 'shepherd' to my group of r/l friends who play casually at best. We simply don't belong in a pve or pvp raid oriented guild. Problem is that you get to lv 50 or so and start suffering for not having the support that Draginol mentioned. It's a trade-off where everyone should be happy - guilds *should* have some kind of collective power or glue. While I'd love to truck on up to 60 quickly, I end up
After 6 months of Horde on Skullcrusher, went from guild of friends ( one of whom is now my boss at a sweet new job!) to a merge with a larger guild for end-game raiding, to a split-up over runaway racist garbage in ventrilo...to nothing. I followed the 'good half' to Smolderthorn Horde where the ratio is a bit better - but the same damn thing just happened...and I dragged my buds there with me! Not much incentive to invest in a guild when you might
