Kick her ass.

but now you are just conglomerating other peoples work and writing a sentence or two. It might piss some people off.

god shut up

sorry Rex.

motown?

taking on the filibuster would have to be a deal where it gets phased out some time down the line when nobody knows who will be in power. Really, I think it probably should be taken out, we have so many checks, it's just not necessary, and it tends to lead to bills that are completely defined by senators from...well, states that aren't the most populated.

wow.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 7, 2010 -> 03:37 PM) Quickly skimming while at work I thought you were making the case that eventually we'll be able to catch all terrorist attempts. ha, my quick skim created the same thought.

I mean, our department of the interior wasn't all sleeping together and doing drugs, so, A+

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jan 7, 2010 -> 03:14 AM) While I agree with your point completely, you addressed the wrong group of people. you sure? Half this thread is just b****ing about new fans.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Dec 28, 2009 -> 12:03 AM) The Argentine National Team is a mess,they have more holes in their defense than Swiss cheese... serves them right for idiotically putting Maradona as coach.

that title made me laugh. I'd love to make the propogandist titles for Chicagowhitesox and Chicagobears.com. Anyway, that kind of sucks. There goes his plus value

Blow up the red line and see the chaos and terror in the city. That's my point. There's pretty much no security on it. you'd essentially shut down the entire el. Flooding everyone on buses that are already overcrowded. An entire major city would be nearly immobilized.

They also take the trains like every day though. It's how they get to work/live. That's pretty killer to take away.

long johns ftw. With those I can wear pretty much any outer wear jacket and stay warm, which is important, because I need to look good at all times - and DO. Fortunately, It's 30 degrees C here, so all I need is a T-shirt and jeans. Go Brazilian lax work dress code.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 7, 2010 -> 02:33 AM) The problem is that barely anyone uses trains. They are pretty much confined to old cities in the US, and that is about it. Rurally, they train passengers are about as rare as Cubs WS's. I'm kind of at a loss here...more people live in cities than rural areas. And how often do people in rural areas fly?

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jan 7, 2010 -> 02:28 AM) Yeah but that's like an exceptionally rare occurrence. Blowing up trains, relatively speaking, is orders of magnitude easier and that's part of the psychological damage it does. this, and what measures do you take on afterwards? in Paris if there is a bag left on a train everything stops until it's removed, on the other hand their metros are faster and more reliable, do that to ours and see what happens.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 7, 2010 -> 12:58 AM) I think letting a QB handpick his own OC is a recipe for disaster, and seeing how Pete Carroll basically wants Bates gone and also noting USC's fall from offensive grace, I am not enthralled with Bates becoming the OC. there's also a difference from college and pro offenses. I'd rather take a guy with success on offense in the pros than that of one with success in college when looking at an offensive coordinator.

I don't buy it ss, if an attack happened on a public transportation vehicle in a major metropolitan area, that scares the s*** on effectively everyone in THAT city, and frankly, EVERY city that uses public transportation. And considering a train attack on say, a metro train, would eff up the track, it also causes huge inconveniences from here on out. There are so many planes that run a day there will always be a "what are the odds", but when you start narrowing it down to train lines, it's a little bit more damning.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jan 7, 2010 -> 01:18 AM) You know, I parked in one of these things not too long ago (by the Giordano's on 53rd in Hyde Park) and the prices weren't all that bad like I thought they were going to be. It was like 2 dollars for 2 hours, something like that, and being able to use my credit card instead of digging for coins was really convenient. this. Frankly parking meters are just an economics 101 textbook example in terms of supply and demand/tragedy of the commons, etc. And in the liberal perspective the fact that higher prices could help move people into public transportation and off cars is a good thing.

I just feel like the hall of fame writers come across as really snobbish and arrogant, not really just huge fanatics of baseball. They just seem impressed by their privelege as writers.

no offense, but you are quoting a lot from other sources. Can't you just link and summarize yourself?

sure kap. Red is black, grey is black, white is black, orange is black.

Often I don't make them, and really, the different ones I've tried have been mixtures with different fruits WITH the lime, and to me it just gets too sweet - but Brazilians f'n love sweet. Seriously, you should see how much sugar they put in their coffee (albeit it's much stronger). And they ALL drink chocolate milk for breakfast and eat cookies like everyday. (Huge generalizations). But anyway, It's worth a try to cut some grapes in half, deseed, and smash alongside the limes and sugar. Even though the cachaça is like fire, with the ice and sugarfruit mixture, there is no burn. I mean, it's a tasty drink with a different taste, the way the sugar cane of the cachaça changes the flavor, but not my fave. Just straight up limes/sugar/cachaca select for me.

so much caiparinhas with so many cachaças. Fav. so far is Cachaça Select.
