One question: What do we do about it?

Reply to Clinton Possibly Last 2 Term President? in Politics JoeUser Forums

As I'm buried under what is quickly closing in on two and a half feet of snow, and all of Michigan's eleven thousand lakes are rather more like skating rinks at the moment, I'll deign to offer a bit of rhetoric at this time. Oh, and a disclaimer: I like Bush. That said, I think you may be right.

An expose on a biased nature in the media in Politics JoeUser Forums

A question about the expansion pack... in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Ok, so I read that the Exp. Pack will only be available on direct order, but I have a question. Only having a very slow connection that is rarely on, downloading is hardly an option. However, I would be interested if I could have a CD mailed to me. Is this an option?
