  1. So even worse than your own original, albeit poor, attempt at misrepresentation; you have to use someone else's poor attempt at misrepresentation? I had you pegged for an independent thinker, not another liberal sheep... When your done with my balls on your chin, I mean your court, put your skirt back on; my motorcycle needs washed.
  2. Their cases get dropped by the Justice department... http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203550604574361071968458430.html And then FOXNews and the Tea Party is blamed.
  3. Ouch... Someone is going to need some Aloe Vera after that burn So if I don't like a few black, asian, indian, latino or white people because of their behavior now means I don't like any of them? Big jump there. I'll go get you a "jump to conclusions" rug. It's in the closet next to my KKK robes apparently. And yes, through your bold emphasis you were attempting to focus a readers eye on the sentences you wanted; thus you were presenting them in such a manner as to be out of context.

  5. It is good to know that at least the rights to gathering and freedom of speech are still respected. In that sense, there's never too many Glenn Beck supporters, or any supporters of a group someone disagrees with. Fun game: Prove Glenn Beck wrong on the basis of his arguments, as opposed to writing him off as a "right wing nut job."
  6. Mid 80s to early 90s BMW 5 series. They've bottomed out in price (I picked mine up for $700), have enough room for four comfortably, and while the parts are expensive: they don't break down very often. And anything safe enough for the Autobahn is safe. I'd sell you mine but I like it too much.
  7. I went through one a few years ago... I didn't hear from them until a year later. And it was something I had definitely told them I didn't want to do. Maybe other ones are better than that, but a 12 month follow up doesn't seem very professional to me
  8. You could probably make either the New River Gorge or Red River Gorge in that amount of time.
  9. I went to college in Knox County, welcome
  10. I've got an extra Kelty backpack you could borrow if you ended up going.
  11. Short term currency. And a playoff in college football is a bad idea. Right now every game matters. And part of the appeal is the flaws in the system. We all know Georgia got screwed out of the National Championship a few years ago, and I love watching USF creep into the rankings only to be quickly shot down, because they had that giant killing season a few years ago. We only need to look so far as NCAA basketball to see what a tournament/play off would do to football: ruin the regular season. You play hard enough to get into the tournament and that's it. And really, how are we going to determine which football teams make it into the playoffs? Writers and coaches voting on the strength of schedules and win/loss records. Which isn't all that different from what we have now, and when do we draw the line? 24 teams? What if that 25th team had a great season? It's going to be a different party, same headache. And the Ohio State/Michigan game is sacrosanct. Why screw with something that was voted the greatest rivalry in all of sports a few years ago? Playing Michigan twice a season is going to be like kissing your sister.
  12. I've seen Rascal Flats twice. Great show! O.A.R. but only if they're at the Newport. Otherwise I don't recommend it. Counting Crows: sucks in concert. Absolutely sucks.
  13. Since we've never met in real life those are pretty bold claims to make
  14. My number was wrong regarding the IRS, however my overall assertion was still correct and still valid. We'll just go ahead, ignore that, and write off everything I've ever said, apparently, as suspect, misinformed, and ultimately incorrect. My math regarding taxes was valid, and as I even stated: didn't include the loss of deductions that will occur if the Bush Tax cuts will expire, nor did it include the other taxes we all pay everyday, or the deductions taken out for things like Social Security. Meaning that we're looking at a much higher amount paid to the government. Go ahead and keep arguing about the 4% federal tax hike, I'll continue to actually look at the full amount of taxes we pay In regards to the chances of the Bush Tax cuts actually being debated are slim. Again, the Republicans are going to defend and stonewall as fiercely for letting the tax cuts expire for those above $200,000 as they are for letting the entire thing expire. And as you've said yourself: Why suddenly would they stop stonewalling the Democrats and allow them to carry on with their plan to allow tax cuts to expire? If we're really dealing with the highest levels of obstructionism in history, then the chances of these tax cuts expiring without a fight are slim to none. Everyone's already tired politically from the stimulus fight, from the health care fight, and its an election year. So I highly doubt we'll see any politiciking on this one to only limit it to the top wage earners in America. In my supposedly uninformed opinion, one of two things will happen: either the tax cuts will expire entirely, and we'll be looking at higher taxes, and a cut in many deductions; or nothing will change. But by all means put up pictures of LOLcatz and Cheech can keep posting up HURR DURR sharks as though that somehow proves your position correct. I forgot that mockery was a valid tactic for a debate and that a funny internet photo is an automatic win. I also forgot that my position disagrees with yours, which of course automatically makes me wrong. Silly me. I could put up fact after fact after fact, and I would still just be a sad, ignorant misinformed conservative clinging to my guns and my bible.
  15. The survivors of the Dresden Fire Bombings have similar stories of the fire becoming a tornado. They said it was so loud it sounded like a freight train, and that the fire was so hungry for air, that people would be suffocated to death from a hundred feet away.
  16. I'm suspect and misinformed? Oh really, I'll just put away my college degree, NY Times email subscription, CNN, Bloomgburg Business AND FOXnews channel watching, and my subscription to Businessweek away then and continue being "uninformed." Just like a liberal though offering enlightenment to those who disagree with your opinions. The Spanish did that during the Inquisition... Or I should say, attempting to force enlightenment
  17. Fun background/Drug test facts. From the Redwoods Insurance Group (my last employers' underwriter) 96% of pedophiles don't have a criminal background. Meaning all the safety procedures to keep pedophiles away from children automatically fail since they're dependent on a pedophile having a criminal background. And after a quick google search: It looks like the hard drugs metabolize out of your system in three days to a week. The one drug that doesn't metabolize quickly is marijuana (specifically THC). So the drugs that cause dangerous behaviors and psychotic episodes aren't caught as often as the drug that encourages the purchasing of Phish albums. That's why cocaine is becoming the "businessman's drug." Both present illusions of safety and control though, so we keep them around. Good job Recon. Drug test one, drug test everyone.
  18. Check when the hawks migrate through Hawk Mountain, Pennsylvania. Dad loves that area, and apparently when you hike to the top of the mountain, you're actually looking down on the hawks and other raptors as they migrate. http://www.hawkmountain.org/
  19. It's definitely one large selling point to getting an HDTV and HD channels. They also ran the Goodwood Revival on HD Theatre: Classic cars and classic bikes actually racing. Sooo good.
  20. There's nothing wrong with a 250. A good friend of mine put it best "it's still fast enough to get you in trouble." My best friend has a 250 and he loves it.
  21. Apparently you failed to read my full post and chose to cherry pick; it's cool though. The Democrats are going to have to fight the Republicans as hard to get only the tax cuts to expire for those making above $250,000 a year as they will to let the entire thing expire. Especially since Geithner made the mistake of saying it looks good to the rest of the world. That was a serious faux pas (about as bad as anytime Joe Biden opens his mouth). Since letting the tax cuts expire can now be spun as un-American. Playing into the growing discontent with the current administration. Everyone is tired from the health care and stimulus fights. No one wants to touch this during an election year. I misspoke on taxes, and under estimated the amount: http://taxes.suite101.com/article.cfm/how-much-tax-money-does-irs-fail-to-collect It's all good, let's raise taxes instead of figuring out how to better collect the ones we've already got.
  22. I don't like somethings the government does, that doesn't mean I don't like everything they do. And no, my last employer had me classified as an independent contractor. Meaning no unemployment for me. Thanks for the congratulations!
  23. Apparently you're the only person on the entire internet thats said anything about a Honda CW400E or my Google has screwed up. http://www.google.com/search?q=1981+Honda+CW400E&hl=en&safe=off&filter=0
