QUOTE (danman31 @ Feb 6, 2009 -> 08:04 AM) I don't really care. I don't really understand the rivalry personally. There are tons of fans that make a huge deal out of anything Kansas. I've only been to one basketball game and none of the football games. The football games are when I'm in the Chicago area for Thanksgiving break. As for basketball, freshman year (the Moody game) I was on a date which went longer than expected and I deemed that more important lol and last year I just drove in from the end of the winter break and slept through the game. Shows how much I care, but you are right about the culture. Yeah, I mean it's fun. Rivalries are always fun, but, I don't know anyone treating it like the super bowl. I certainly don't want to lose, but they canceled our work on Monday for the game, and I was pissed, because I'm poor.

Why is this man ruining our economy?

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Feb 6, 2009 -> 05:49 PM) Senior year in HS our soccer team went out for breakfast before school the day of our homecoming game at Dennys. We were kinda loud and rowdy but there were hardly any people in there and we were polite to the waitress. However, one of the waitresses kept giving attitude to one of the tables and so when the food came the three people at that table just left. I was one of the last people to leave and initially we refused to pay for it since we werent the ones to do it but in the end myself and a few others picked up their bill. Apparently Dennys called our school because our coach found and those three got suspended for the game. And then we all had to run extra sprints in practice the next day so that was fun Holy s***, you just jogged my memory. I went to my friends birthday dinner and some assholes left the check and I had to pay it for my friend. I think that's f***ing over the other tables, more though, I think they knew that. Bastards.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Feb 6, 2009 -> 06:05 PM) How is saying: "Prisoners will not be detained longer than X days without either having charges brought against them, being brought to trial or being released." If youre arrested can you be held in the police station indefinitely with out being charged? My understanding is that in the US, the general time period is 24 hours after being arrested you must be charged or released, unless certain conditions are met. I dont like the idea of letting the govt define "temporarily". But thats just my opinion. I think there is a little more distance and logistics involved here, no?

my tope chucks.

Sos anyways, this is how you do it bonnaroo

so, what was the alternative response to this obnoxious, trying-to-be-jay-marrioti fan... "Ha, pain in the back good one. He sucked didn't he? Oh yeah, Bartolo really sucks, you nailed it."

I think this is kind of racist, thinking a black guy has to play kenny williams. I mean, it's 2009 guys, we have a BLACK president. You guys are living in the past.

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Feb 6, 2009 -> 06:04 AM) Buy my ticket to Coachella and I'll let you crash at my place for 3 days. It's 10 mins from here. i'll buy your ticket if you buy my airfare...actually holy s*** whens coachella again after grad. I was gonna go on a cross country road trip I wonder if I could make it there in time. I went to bonnaroo 2 years ago when they started moving away from the s***ty dave matthews crowd. It seems they are trying to retain that awful awful base.

ugh, I'm pretty proud in saying I've never seen people dine and dash. Such an asshole thing to do.

it's not a f***ing dominos delivery, what are we supposed to say we'll get them to the place in half an hour or ship him home. Damn those guarantees.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 5, 2009 -> 07:25 PM) OK. I don't disagree with the general point, but, please show me how this is a "stimulus" item, and how it will generate positive returns. I don't understand how it isn't. There is a lack of demand right now. The gov't is fueling money into the demand market. They allocate funds to build a theatre, that contract goes to a contractor, that contractor pays his employees, those employees have money to purchase things, adding to the demand market. Let alone, the theatre then employing actors who are now not unemployed and so then purchase other items...and so on. But TAX CUTS.

American culture is one of our biggest exports.

God bless.

sick of people acting like bipartisanship means complete capitulation from the party in power and then the minority party still doesn't vote for it.

Yeah. Iran has so much power in Iraq right now that we need them, (need, how scary is that), for Iraq's sustained success. Now, for afghanistan that's a different story. Pakistan don't have the centralized political power to help, and Russia doesn't have near the influence that Iran does with Iraq, but does not a lot about the region and has an interest in it. Overall, It will be a mess.

honestly, for some semblance of success in these two countries we need help from some unattractive countries.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Feb 5, 2009 -> 10:11 AM) haha. you do know that you also have to play at the nation's greatest arena, AFH. I see KU splitting with Mizzou this year, but Self is doing a wonderful job with thte nation's 12th youngest team and getting 75 percent of scoring from underclassmen. dude, it's my senior year and the last time we beat you guys was when that white kid of yours missed 2 free throws to send us into overtime, and thomas gardiner was our star. But, also to be in the tourney too. God. Haa, before I had a college team, I used to think "with 64 teams, how the hell do you not make it in", and...it's hard to.

QUOTE (BobDylan @ Feb 5, 2009 -> 03:20 AM) Thank you. I'm not alone. I've never understood what people see in him. you guys are sooo controversial

Ooo if mizzou can pull this off this'll be huge.

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Feb 4, 2009 -> 07:43 PM) The biggest problem is the second we lower troop levels in Iraq it will go back to being the way it was in 05. The surge really hasn't done anything. Iraq really all depends on Iran. They can f***ing leverage us with Iraq for their nuke program.

You may very well be right. But, "hey it ain't so bad!" would also be a misspeak.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Feb 4, 2009 -> 04:39 PM) I think they did, in a weird sort of way. In that way, to quote Obama's administration, this is a golden opportunity to pass everything we wanted in the past 25+ years and you just don't let things like this pass you by. I think "hoping" for collapse and recognizing the opportunity a collapse brings are two different things entirely. When things are going smoothly, it's hard to recognize potential disasters. When you are in the midst of disasters, it's easier to show the public what can help - health care, green technology, regulations, etc. The democrats always have social reform to bank off of, they may have been hoping for failure in Iraq, but really they had all the ammo they needed in the fact people were lied into the war and could paint the republicans as irresponsible hawks. I don't think the Republicans want any Americans to lose their jobs, but I think they are playing some dangerous politics for themselves right now.
