Cool Tova, please point me in the direction where you have your stuff hosted, This is all my opinion, if thats ok. If my comments are helpful in helping you write better, then cool. If they are harmful just tell me to stop and I shall. If your goal, BlueDev, was to write a brief story for just writing it then you have suceeded, in my opinion in the writing of the end of one. My favorite short story is by Jack London, it's been years since I read it, but it's about a

Reply to 15% of Germans say they 'long for a strong leader' in Politics JoeUser Forums

So conversely, 85% would prefer a weak leader? I'm not sure but strong leadership generally gives people a better secure feeling if not perception of a strong country, strong economy, strong moral values lol. All of that. Whereas, weak leadership the opposite.

Reply to Quotes From Donald Rumsfeld in Current Events JoeUser Forums

He meant' there are things are basically A Things we know B things we dont know C and things we dont know that we dont know Only he seperated them into six categories for whatever reason. Probably to confuse the question asker. One of the C's is we don't know how much longer we are going to be in Iraq, because we don't know how unknowable that is.

I'm sorry if my comments were unwelcome. I retract the entire statement "exceedingly feeble IMO but a good attempt." I thought opinions were welcome. I didn't state it as fact, but again if it offended the author or any of you I'm sorry. I've been accused of trolling. What's trolling? If it is offering my opinion that makes trolling, then I'm sorry, I won't offer it in this thread. One question for ya if it's ok for me to ask. Where does the story go from th

Reply to Broadband Ram Question. in PC Hardware JoeUser Forums

The probable reason your fan runs more often with broadband then dial-up, and this is an educated guess, is that your CPU is doing more, to crunch the data coming into your system at a faster rate. The fact is fans should always be running to cool CPU's. Even if they are cpu controlled for optimum cooling vs noise they should always be at least on low speed. The reason is heat is generated by the electrons flowing through the circuits, and that heat is dumped into a heatsink via conduct

Reply to What's the skinny with anorexic-looking chicks? in Diet JoeUser Forums

"I've been on both ends of the scale - I've been heavy/chubby at 160lbs, (which, on my 5'2" frame looked a bit bigger) and at my lightest I was 104lbs. At 160 I had a 36 D bust and hips that'd knock you over if I accidentally brushed into you - and at 104 I had 32 B boobs and hips bony enough to hurt you with. I thought I looked better heavier. Even recently, when I dropped 25 lbs and went down to 108, I disliked the way I looked and pushed myself to get up to my current 115. I LIKE having a che

Reply to Bush Talks About "Common Ground" in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Curious how we can come together on Immigration reform now, when it was solved a few weeks ago by starting construction on a fence. Neighbors are only made better with fences right? Just look how well it's working out in Israel. I'm comitted to spelling Israel correct from now on. Otherwise it looks like I don't care. Also interesting how we can come together on the minimum wage, since it hasn't been raised in approximately 10 years. Dumping Don Rumsfeld Raising minimum wage Re-

Reply to US 9/11 attack was through missile and not flight in US Civil War JoeUser Forums

Kevin Barret is the only crank who's devoted more hours of his life then anybody else I know to proporting the idea that the government was behind it. As supporting facts, he states that the majority of the Muslim world believes that we did this to ourselves. Made up Al-Kills-R-Us-Da, filmed the scenes on a hollywood set of them setting around congratulating each other on the destruction of the towers. I find that disturbing, of course I'm not alone, what I find equally distrubing is g

Reply to US 9/11 attack was through missile and not flight in US Civil War JoeUser Forums

It was a missile damn you all, from a klingon submarine, cloaked under the water, until it surfaced, and launched a giant dildo shaped missile with wings that looks exactly like a commuter jet, from a penis shaped klingon submarine. That one that hit the pentagon at about the same time was from the Romulans, Also cloaked, look into it here... www,factsfrommyanus,org

"And what's more, the states now have little say in the federal government." That's bologne. Each state has at least two representitves I think, and two senators. How is it that the states have little say in federal government? I still don't understand what is wrong with the legislative branch as it is. This is how I understand it. If a bill is going to be passed into law it must pass with a majority so 51% or more in both the House or Representitves, and the US Senate, once th

Reply to Where Did All The earths Water Come from? in Pure Technology JoeUser Forums

I took Chemistry in highschol and got a D in chemistry ok, mostly because I had three other college level classes, a daily 3-11pm job, and a gf all at the same time. So I'm not very good at explaining it. I honestly wasn't trying to be insulting at all Xythe, either by trying to explain it, or suggesting that you take a class if you are interested. I did in high school because my 5th grade teacher told me and I liked him a lot. It was one of the very best classes I took even though I got a "D" l

"Nice response DG, but the question remains, what emplaced these componants (H and O2) on the earth, and what forced were present to combine them into the compound we know as water?" It all depends on your perspective and what you tend to believe in more. If it's the science view, it's luck of the draw in the universe, that gave us a large concentration of hydrogen and oxygen, which was able to create water eventually. Us as opposed to Mars for example, if Mars had oceans they
