Um, strange concept. I'd take Chris Carter, he seems to be hitting a lot of balls over the wall. Major leagues in the last five years...yeah I guess vazquez, the p.o.s. Or swish. Could use some OBP on this team.

Get one of Jerry's daughters to take the lady shopping. Get her a massage. Get her nails done. She's the one with the power here. Buy her a f***ing puppy if you have to. Just get this s*** done. Shopping. Massages. Nails. Puppies. You sure do know women. Or at least the Super Bowl commercial image of them.

take a day in Paris to not do anything except walk, with no destination.

Please salvage this offseason

So then torture is justified? Or then so we should bring back civics tests for voters? yeah welcome to nobodyisarguingthatville

because we all know, if it's not as bad as the holocaust, it's not evil.

it is kind of curious to me though when they teach us things so simplistically at points that it's just completely wrong. I have no examples, but i just vividly remember the reactions in high school and college when I was like "why the hell would the even teach us the lie"

QUOTE (lostfan @ Feb 16, 2010 -> 04:16 AM) The "law enforcement approach to terrorism" and "capitulating" or "pre 9-11 approach" or however that talking point is phrased is just a fallacy at best, a bald-faced lie made out of whole cloth at worst. You just can't say that with any kind of credibility when the administration still has troops in Iraq (for now), increases the American presence in Afghanistan by about a factor of 3, and authorizes twice as many Predator strikes as Bush did, while pissing off his base because he continued a lot of Bush's policies. I guess it doesn't count if you don't arbitrarily invade another country. It was sarcasm. That was a big capture.

hell of an offseason kenny

Yes.

Yes, torture, who cares, right? Who cares that the united states is opting Khumer Rouge tactics? Not me! Because real americans know that the khumer rouge was just misunderstood

well, i guess we just have to wait for torture to blow up in someones face for it to...oh wait, we already know we tortured and now they turned the debate around so that we SHOULD torture and anything else is weakness. Silly me.

you could clump together that whole "boys club of the CIA being unchecked from inception to 63" and really even longer. Like CIA paying for the shah's prostitutes for their whole family and what not.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Feb 16, 2010 -> 12:08 AM) God descended to Earth and commanded our Founding Fathers to give freedom all men with the immortal and flawless Constitution. However, today we are not doing God's bidding because the Constitution was never intended apply to women (it specifically says "men" because women belong only in the kitchen and the bedroom, people who believe otherwise are responsible for our cultural and moral decline) or blacks (they aren't people). It also reminds us that the Bible tells us to hate gays. Hey dude, they are 3/5s of people.

Yeah, not really sorry to see that POS go.

A pro-college argument: http://yglesias.thinkprogress.org/archives...y-education.php

Yeah, so whatever fault on GS, Greece, or EU for not following the law... but what I haven't seen (not saying it doesn't exist), is articles or news on whether the EU is doing about these budget constraint laws and how to help countries in their union fundamentally f***ed because of the euro. Like Spain, for instance, Spain was not cooking their books, they were in good financial shape. And as spain goes, so goes portugal. The housing bubble brings a flood of money into Spain, their wages go up, and then the crash. But, they can't depreciate their currency, and they are forced to stick to these budget constraints, and so they are just forced to be especially screwed. Now, I understand that if you are gonna benefit from the increaded power and flow of the euro, then you need to blah blah when it fails. But are they doing anything to fix the labor problem within the EU with things like this?

TTFN Bayh.

I don't think "scary" entered a single review of let the right one in I'd ever said or seen. I think the setting of Sweden did loads for the eeriness, the blood on the snow and the cold in general.

I put the pessimistic I'm concerned. It really isn't that I don't think this roster could win this division, because it certainly wouldn't be shocking, nay it would would be a disappointment if we didn't. What makes me evermore angry is it seems like Kenny is taking huge not-needed gambles on offense when he has the first or second best pre-season rotation of his tenure (depending on how you want to use foresight with 06). I don't see any reason to experiment with bad offensive players on offense when it appears 5-6 mill would have done so much to secure this offense. We could have never been explosive, but we could have at least been "good enough" and now it's like Balta said. We need a run of things, I guess like 05. Lexi needs to be his rookie of the year lexi. Ditto CQ his MVP CQ. Rios ideally needs to be 07 Rios. Beckham doesn't have much room for regression. Pierre please god re-create last years numbers over a full season. And it would do a whole hell of a lot to have a consistent Paulie and a 35 HR paulie, though that's just a fool's projection at this point.

In the selection of cheap wines in Brazil (now that I think in Reais instead of dollars, well, I have for months, but beside the point) I do love Rio Seco's malbec and bonarda, their cab, however, not so good
