which one's haven't been?

if he's in jail for life who gives a damn if he's still a citizen.

with Bush, i mean, probably the same - although probably more. Then Clinton - he's had more. George HW - more. Before that...couldn't tell ya. Reagan had the economy and the cold war, so i don't know.

Cool graph: http://bit.ly/diTWYV Illinois and New York with two lowest gas consumption levels per capita - benefitting from huge swaths of their population in a high density area with effective public transit (in that it serves huge areas: see Louis, St. for opposite) Anyway, proud to walk to my first job today then take the train to my second. Go Illinois.

how old are you? That would help.

I don't think it's that silly. You have to understand, there can still be snow in winter and it be a warmer winter. The warming creates more moisture in the air, and therefore: more precipitation in both winter and summer. Just because it's frozen in the winter doesn't mean it's a sign that global warming is a hoax, it's actually quite the opposite.

I really didn't enjoy Gods and Monsters. Some awful dialogue.

2 others arrested were cleared

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 4, 2010 -> 02:14 PM) Isn't "hey lets end it" a pretty good description of what the military said last time that Congress asked? It's more than 10 seconds at this point. I think it's pretty clear they're trying to at least slip past the mid-term elections and hope that they can avoid a backlash against them from either side. Give me a break, they already essentially gutted it. If this 1 year review is enough to satiate some senators while making the program currently meaningless you won't give a f*** in 5 years because it will be over. BUt considering what it looked like his first year, the Obama admin. has really taken on DADT and the HIV ban.

anyone know if we got the free dunkin donuts coffee?

b.s. dragging his ass would be if the military was saying "hey let's end it" and obama was saying "nope!" Just because it takes more than 10 seconds to change it doesn't mean it's being held up.

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ May 3, 2010 -> 10:26 PM) Lily Ledbetter Ended the HIV travel restrictions Really like these two. Especially regarding the latter, it was an incredibly stupid and outdated ban that had no reason continuing, and it was a relief to see it end. There was actually a lot of little things Obama has done that have had big impacts on peoples lives that it's hard to remember because i think it was such common sense. also: The movement to end don't ask don't tell.

Caught my first sox game of the year. Rios was great tonight. Beckham made a great play at second. Also: I think i underestimated how popular scotty pods is with most sox fans. Also, Jones and Alexei were smokin the s*** out of the ball. So did paulie. The Royals 3b was like target practice out there. Also, BS is right, it was a cubs fan starting s*** in LF.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 2, 2010 -> 05:26 PM) I'd rather Kotsay lead off than Ramirez, as Alexei isn't a long-term solution. Kotsay is?

yeah he's pretty bad. And yeah, he double clutches a lot. But the good thing is we signed him long term.

hahaha.

and, you know, our people in the prime of their careers to not hit like mendoza in the prime of his.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 30, 2010 -> 07:11 PM) in the next couple months. what has congress acted on that has happened this quickly. I should say the senate, which apparently is the whole congress now.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 1, 2010 -> 03:22 AM) Watched an excellent documentary on netflix instant watch tonight. 'We Live in Public' Highly recommended. word, saw that at columbia missouri's "true/false film festival" which is an awesome event if any of you are cool and like nice s***.

the arms were not the key to getting peavy, it was picking up his salary.

yeah, not getting it. So because something has been around a long time and sucks means that it's not to be questioned or changed because it's been around a long time and sucks and people know it? Sounds brilliant.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 30, 2010 -> 02:10 PM) At the end of the day it isn't like they were annexed. The rules have been there long before anyone here was born. The zone was created for a very specific reason. Then again it isn't like there is much state based influence left in this country anyway. so?

QUOTE (G&T @ Apr 30, 2010 -> 11:42 AM) It was created specifically to house the federal government. When created, I think the point was to keep it away from state influences. Of course, all of that is moot today. well, not really but besides that, you'd still have the federal district, but could make a state easily for the 600,000 routinely f***ed from true representation and constant tugging with congress. Their population is comparable to SD or MT
