  1. if you cant spell "pentagon" correctly... you probably shouldnt be speaking as if you know all about it.... just my .02
  2. i dont want my ass to be torn. im trying to see if i can get a deal worked out locally so i dont have to (illegaly) drive the truck back to ohio, but i'll let you know if stuff changes. thanks for the offer
  3. its not the midwest... but the whole state of new jersey!
  4. yeah, it sucks. they ended up putting the ls1tech car up against a mustang that supposedly ran 8's... which wasnt part of the agreement. PSJ was smart to not do it.
  5. yeah, ideally that would be AMAZING. people criticize us when we are in other peoples business, but then we get criticized even more when we arent. look at how mad people got at us for our lack of preemptive action in WW2... then in a case like iraq, people got mad because we did take preemptive action. no matter how bad it looks when we are acting as the worlds police, its needed. someone is always going to step up for the role, and if we dont... its going to be bad. the terrorism is not going to end if we leave... we are being targeted because of our backing of israel, along with many long standing historical reasons. the UN is trying to step up to take our place, and try to moderate the international system a bit. unfortunately the whole UN system is very inefficient. if handled correctly, we would have a lot less to worry about, but we're stuck until then. because of the strength of America, we are paying something like 27% of the UN's budget... while other countries are paying a fraction of a percent. this shows how we are expected to be a dominant player, but then we arent meant to actually be present internationally? bs. if people want us to stop trying to "control" the world... then stop expecting us to pay for everything!!
  6. of course america spends significantly more than anyone else. looking at the budget, so much goes towards "foreign obligations"... its all necessary in order to keep this world together. we're a hegemonic power, if we stopped spending money on other countries... start learning chinese!
  7. http://youtube.com/watch?v=FC5WJYDlyFI this is a really good family friend of mine... a video thats probably 30 years old, but the guy is the man!
  8. i wish i lived in c-bus.... sounds like a good time.
  9. yeah, he ran for president of liberia too. hes a really cool guy.
  10. beckham is old. he moved to the states because he knew he wouldnt be able to keep up with european players for much longer, end of story. im an AS Roma fan. when they arent playing, its AC milan for me. I grew up playing on one of the junior milan teams. we dominated. my best friend growing up was george weah jr. so i got to go to all the games. (george weah was known to be the best soccer player in the world probably 8 or so years ago)
  11. i bought some hood pins for my fiberglass hood, and once htey were opened i realized they wont work on a fiberglass hood (not mine, at least) they are part number 1472, they have keys. never been used, but they are out of the packaging this is the link on summit, $28 http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=MRG%2D1472&N=700+4294925242+115&autoview=sku $20
  12. http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c78/steveydthepirate/P6240012.jpg?t=1186692961 its fast...
  13. dave weckl is good. tullio de piscopo
  14. moved philly-london, london-milan, milan-rome, rome-philly, philly-ohio... the more you can keep, the less you will have to buy. its always nice having stuff just laying around, because you know that as soon as you get rid of it, you will need it.. keep everything sentimental, and then whatever you can fit. but after that, dont worry about it. you will just have more space to collect more random stuff!
  15. let them stay in jail a few days. CO's always make sure to let the other prisoners know when a rapist shows up then kill the bastards.
  16. i had two eyebrow piercings when i was looking for a job... and most places told me that because i was so professional in my interviews, that it didnt matter. if they are just looking at a picture, its definitely going to make it very hard to get hired. but, we arent in the 1940's as the OP said, more and more people are opting for piercings/tattoos. she will find the right place that will take the time to get to know her and see that there is more to her than a piece of metal in her face!
  17. it wasnt for a specific school, i was just giving a suggestion for a different variety of private school to look for! sorry
  18. like 10xworse, i'm an international relations major (college of wooster). i work for a roofing company during the summer though. i do roofing, siding, gutter stuff, etc. i do side jobs building decks and stuff for friends and family.
  19. i dont know anything about schools in ohio... but i went to a quaker school. i dont know if they have any of them out in ohio though. there was no religious bias, it was pretty much "believe what you want". the only religious aspect of the school was that we had to go to meeting for worship once a week (you sit in a meeting house type place, and just reflect on stuff for an hour or so... people can share stories if they want) once again, i dont know if they have any in ohio... but i think its the best kind of private school. the teachers were top notch, most of my friends are at top name colleges (MIT, stanford, harvard, upenn, etc.) and all the classes were small.
