If I see where you're going with this....then you already have in mind what I would want from it.....peer-based multi-source downloading to share the bandwidth cost of WC. Other than that....how bout making sure it fully analyzes a skin to find what skin it actually is. For example, with Object Bar, I use Blackcomb, but recolored and reconfigures. It should be able to detect it as "Blackcomb" and not "Jeremy's BC mod".

If you don't meditate, now's a good time to.
Resist! Save the money, avoid the self-absorption. You'll be attractive for it!
Want to send him/her for a real loop. Just say "Normal is anything that I'm not!" and start crying.
BTW, if a given family decides they want to have their loved one's body or coffin shown on TV then that's their right. It should be up to the family to decide what coverage their fallen receive, not the media. Yes, what the media can, and cannot show should be tightly monitored.
State of the Union 2002 " Iraq continues to flaunt its hostility toward America and to support terror. The Iraqi regime has plotted to develop anthrax, and nerve gas, and nuclear weapons for over a decade. This is a regime that has already used poison gas to murder thousands of its own citizens -- leaving the bodies of mothers huddled over their dead children. This is a regime that agreed to international inspections -- then kicked out the inspectors. This is
Sometimes I cant believe how things snowball. Everyone now cries that people have flip-flopped on their support of the war in Iraq, but the simple facts, that cannot be argued are these: 1. Back before the war in Iraq began, the bulk of Bush's *STATE OF THE UNION* address centered around Iraq being a threat to the world, and possessing WMD. The most important address a president makes was CENTERED around that idea. 2. At some point it began to be the war cry
HAHAHA I almost pissed myself.
And moral on the home front is a....political concern. So it is indeed politically motivated, to not show images of coffins.
What about the families? They gave up their loved ones to the military, and it killed them. Don't you think they deserve to have them all to themselves at last? They didn't get that option in life, don't you think they should be given that courtesy in death? If someone dies for somethign that they believe in, than it is an admirable thing,
Good stuff, i enjoyed the read!
Those people are dying in my name. Why shouldnt I see them? They are brave individuals who gave the ultimate sacrifice. Honoring them publicly, to me, is better than having them forgotten. Support the troops? YES!
From someoen who has worked in the pharma industry, and seen expensive dinners, gifts and actual hookers offered to physicians .... I tend to lean toward the conspiracy on this one.
I can't believe that you'd go ahead and write more Brad bashing, after the post he made last night. Are you thick headed or something? You sound overly depressed about not getting recognition...on a frick'n blog site. Perhaps it's time to just slit your wrists...maybe then all the kids will realize how much they liked you.
You're not one of the napoleans....but you feel like you should get some respect and recognition? If you care about the soft-power of recognition that brad was describing, then you ARE one of those people. Its a blog. It's like a half step above a message board intellecutally, and a half-step down when it comes to community. The top 10 blogs are mostly ranked where they are because of those cliques and the amount of points they generate due to people having
Anything to curb the message-board-style cliques is good as far as I'm concerned. One thing I'd like to see is a way to limit the amount of points someone gets for people chatting in the comments like this was a message board. Perhaps decaying value of comments, such as: the first comment = 5, second = 4, etc, evenually every 5 comments earns a point. Or better yet, you only get "comment point" for each INDIVIDUAL person who comments. So if Joe and
5. It's better than meat loaf.
Those damned round-eyes will never use chopsticks properly *grin* I'm ok with them. I dont hold them the "proper way", but I can still eat with them prett effectively. I suppose that's the story of my life though, doing things just a little different.
I think more education about relgion is a good idea. But not how religion affects the world, but actually getting children to understand the theological differences, so that they can choose what to believe as an informed person, and not just being handed the beliefs of their parents.
i hear ya. I'm lucky enough to still have some of those friends. I'm also only 28 and I imagine the number of them will continue to decline. What i miss is the "hey it's almost 1am, lets go down to the beach and do nothing, for no reason" kind of friend. I dont have ANY of them right now. Everyone always wants to know exactly what we're going to do, and who's coming, what time we'll get back, etc etc.
bah! more good stuff. Are you posting verse as you write it, or posting things you've already written?
And there you go drawing lines. Never in my comments did I say I was taking the side of anyone. I was simply pointing out that theres errors in lumping groups of people together. You turned it into "you're with me or against me", not me.
ewwww lake effect. Do you get the lake effect snow like they do in Buffalo? A good friend of mine used to live there, and get 6 feet of snow overnight.
I do like this alot, I had a hard time picking which one to feature on Anti-Prose though. I try to alternate them so someone doesnt have 3 in a row at the top. Good stuff, very glad you joined the blog group!
Additionally i find it rediculous that you can claim the insurgents are not devoted to a diplomatic solution. If you asked them, I'm sure they have something they want...they arent just blowing off ammunition because they have nothing better to do. Just because someone doesn't want to concede certain points, doesnt mean that they dont want a peaceful, diplomatic solution. If they want to keep the city for themselves, and then they will cease fire....well thats
