Happy birthday!

Who the heck is this guy? Sounds like he's spewing hatred if you ask me. I'd be surprised if he graduated high school.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 01:27 PM) um... homosexuals won't bring mentally disabled children into the world? Check out the link I posted a bit earlier in this thread.

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 01:03 PM) so you're in favor of cousins and homosexuals getting married. What about siblings? I'm a big proponent of the harm principle. Who someone marries doesn't really bother nor hurt me.

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 12:55 PM) why should that matter? Because men aren't allowed to be married in most states. I would assume that first cousins of the opposite sex could get married since they would probably have different last names.

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 12:53 PM) My original questions, which you misunderstood as a defense, was why was he arrested for foot tapping and a hand gesture? regardless of what they 'mean', there was no offer of payment, and I don't think it is a crime to ask for sex. I would assume it's because this type of sex is on the rise in public restrooms. Should they wait until the 2 men lock themselves in a stall before placing them under arrest? Perhaps.

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 12:50 PM) what makes a homosexual have more of a right to get married than two first cousins? Are the cousins both men?

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 12:51 PM) Texas will secede from the union before this will happen. And that's a bad thing?

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 11:50 AM) So I am sure you are applauding Larry Craig for his work on the anti-gay marriage amendment, right? No because I am pro gay marriage.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 08:33 PM) ® vs. (D). We already know that. So please tell me who in politics has a right to speak out on the environment? Are you aware of any politicians that don't drive a car (besides Ralph Nader), use solar power exclusively, and recycles their own water? I applaud the work that Arnold Schwarzenegger has done in California and yet his carbon footprint is probably 100 times greater than the average American.

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 04:35 PM) Go back and look at the old Soxtalk posts about his mansion. he clearcuts acres! And has a house that dwarfs almost anything within 5 states, and has the nuts to tell Joe Sixpack that he shouldn't drive his SUV. If a politician where to ever enact legislation that helped the environment somehow (i.e., outlaw SUVs or something to that affect) then wouldn't that law apply to everyone, including all the politicians? I guess I'm struggling to see your point of view. Sure he will have a much larger carbon footprint than me, but so will most politicians regardless of party.

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 04:32 PM) If he really believes that there will be a global disaster because of global warming, but still creates a huge amount of carbon, he truly is an an asshole. Not the kind of person I want to be president. He is part of the problem, not the solution. It is very easy to point the finger at everyone else and decide that you have earned to right to be a major polluter. Basically, this is the attitude that most people have. It's everyone elses fault and they are not going to change any aspect of their life. So apparently the next environmental bill that comes up for vote in the House or Senate should be first addressed like this: "Unless you're only means of transportation is a solar powered go-cart you cannot vote on this bill." I mean seriously, based on your logic no politician can ever vote for any environmental legislation or speak about the environment because they all drive cars and SUVs and have homes that use electricity.

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 04:18 PM) just a rich douche bag creating tons of pollution What exactly is he doing that is above and beyond what another politician might be doing? And why does this have to be a partisan issue? If Rudy or Mitt had the same message I would be just as happy to hear it. I know for a fact that every candidate running for President has a larger carbon footprint than I do. That doesn't mean that I don't want them to speak out for the environment.

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 04:14 PM) Obviously, his massive carbon output and the amount of pollution is lifestyle creates. Seriously, if that confused you, I probably will stop replying to your posts. Lifestyle? I was not aware that on weekends he collects old tires and throws then into his backyard where he has an eternally burning tire fire.

What does this even mean? What personal problems does he need to fix? QUOTE(mr_genius @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 03:42 PM) I got an idea, John, how about you fix your own problems first, then tells how we should all be like you.

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 03:42 PM) Lol, John Edwards is such a dumbass. I guess I don't understand why you would need to call him a dumbass. QUOTE(mr_genius @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 03:42 PM) And please don't give me "He raises awareness" slop. So lets say, for instance, that Lawrence Taylor was quoted as saying "Hey kids, don't do drugs. They are bad for you." Would you tell children to ignore his message?

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 02:45 PM) This guy just oozes slim. Well he is thin.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 12:14 PM) I am also with Alpha, I still don't see what was illegal in reaching under a stall and tapping a foot. Gay sex in airport bathrooms is on the rise. I recently read an article about a big sting operation in Atlanta's Hartsfield airport regarding this. Lots of men post ads in craigslist to make sure they can get a quick fix in the men's room while they are making quick stops between airports. There's a certain protocol that goes on for this and Senator Craig followed it. I find it hard to believe that he plead guilty if all he did was accidentally tap a guy's foot with his. Doesn't pass the sniff test. http://www.usatoday.com/travel/flights/200...indecency_N.htm

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 10:57 AM) Anyone who has seen it: Safe to say the best scenes are when Seth Rogan was in it I also like Michael Cera's dry delivery. "What are you Seal?"

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Aug 28, 2007 -> 02:17 PM) 2 years of 90+ wins, 1 year of bad. Last year's 90 win team was on pace to win more games than the 2005 team and then they absolutely sucked for the last 2 months of the year. And that crappy play has continued ever since. I don't count last year as a good year. It was a great first 2/3 of a season followed by a putrid final 1/3 of a season.

I say KW because he comes off as smug and elitist and look at the crap he put out on the field with such a high payroll.

QUOTE(FlaCWS @ Aug 28, 2007 -> 09:41 AM) I honestly don't care either way, because it has nothing to do with winning. And while we're on the topic of HRs., I wonder if I am the only one getting sick and tired of the homer-fests at the Cell. How many years has our ballpark led the league? And when will something be done about it? Maybe I'm just an old-fashioned baseball purist... I'm sure most people will disagree with me... but seeing HRs fly out of there - many of which should be fly-outs - is not fun to watch. I realize the Cell has been renovated to death and there isn't much room left, but I would investigate all possibilities - whether it's raising the height of the fences, or moving back home plate a bit... but something has to be done. The Cell is an absolute launching pad. I know, off-topic a bit. Sorry, just venting after last night. I completely agree with you.

QUOTE(bschmaranz @ Aug 27, 2007 -> 03:38 PM) Why reschedule a weekend game for a Monday afternoon!? Last time I checked the Sox have no off days on Saturdays or Sundays.

Still wondering why KW has a job. Houston just fired their GM and Manager.
