I remember BridgeportJoe saying something about this. I think the majority of these surgeries were only done in cases of emergency. I usually trust his facts, so I don't know. regardless, it seems like an extremely barbaric way of infanticide...

yeah, yeah...just cos I'm not an old man like you... When I mentioned Calvin earlier...was he an old friend?? as for the beatles issue...we'll never see eye to eye. I would just hope and pray that the beatles aren't your number 1 favorite band all-time. I'll take Spiritualized, Pedro the Lion, Denison Witmer, Beta Band, The Verve, Appleseed Cast, or Coldplay over them anyday. beatles=too basic.....hehe....here come's the mudslinging!

and he's 15,000 miles away from being straight:)

I listened to Pet Sounds:) and I've listened to Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, and buddy holly... people were playing 1-4-5 music long before the Beatles....they were just the ones that exploded onto the scene because probably they had all the right elements needed to make the difference in music. I'm not trying to take away from what they've accomplished...just trying to say that they're not the originators of what they do. How do electronic bands like Crystal Method or Chemical Brothers take their influences from the beatles anyway? the beatles took a relatively blank canvas and threw crap at it....alot of it stuck and worked, but some of it didn't. The internet was blocks and squares until the boom in the mid 90s....then sites like yahoo and ebay came along and changed everything. Alot of sites have come and gone. alot of bands have come and gone. nevermind...you knuckle heads will never get it:)

pashaaaaaaaw mr Actuary...isn't that your job??

fpr matching Luther and Calvin in under 5 minutes, you earn a one time exemption from harsh things thrown your way for questioning the Beatles supremecy - do it again about the Beatles and even if you post about Melanchthon and Zwingli and Bucer and Oecelcampadius it won't save you the Beatles - everythiog today flows from them. They cannot be over rated. They are sui generis. I just disagree in the musical but not a corporate sense. Musically, George, paul, and john (not ringo..he's an idiot)...didn't wake up and start making perfect music, they have influences and "ripped off" their favorite bands. However, nothing ever has occurred like the Beatle mania/British invasion. The Beatles should be herrolded (sp?) as innovators of pop music....they are the first pop group (maybe elvis is the first pop music icon...) anyway.... as for Calvin... apparently I don't show off my biblical knowledge enough. (then again, I'm kind of a jerk alot, so I'd hate to misrepresent my persona or views....I'm really a nice guy in person. right mike? haha)
-
The Beatles are as over rated as Mozart, Beethoven, Einstein, Luther, and Edison. yeah, see... I've always like Bach, Brahms, Calvin and Bell...myself:)

I want this man BANNED!!!

haha, I'm a fan...just a well listened and opinionated one. and one that happens to think the beatles are a tad overrated

Beatles homer...........

Much like we disagreed on this movies quality Im going to disagree on the oracle. She symbolizes everything I hate with this series. Everytime someone visits she doesnt tell them s***.....and doesnt seem to know the answers to anything. Only gives a bunch of metaphors and its almost like she says total bulls*** and no matter what she'll be right. Example: (this is not a spoiler) "By the end of today........either the world will be in your hands or agent smiths" Well no s*** lady. Neo is already dumb and doesnt need to ponder these deep thoughts. And if shes wrong then the characters are just like....."She meant to throw me off because I wasnt ready to know the truth." What a bunch of crap. yikes...apparently you missed the whole point of the movie. don't scroll down anymore, I'm gonna spoil it a little. (edit: ok, turns out a lot) *this is a spoiler* for instance her talking to the architech at the end of the movie and saying "that change can be hard, but it was needed (that's a paraphrase..BTW) She was the one that had compassion for humans, so she instigated the whole smith vs neo thing. In order to show that humans and machine can get along when a greater evil is at work. The thing that seperates us from everyone else, however, is the ability to choose. That's why agent smith couldn't see past neo laying on the ground. (when he think's neo is done for) Neo's decision to keep on fighting is what limits Smith's stolen oracle abilities....THIS is why the oracle has to give those jumbled answers, because she can only SEE UP TO A CERTAIN POINT. in every matrix flick, she says, I can't tell you, it's up to you to decide. She's not saying that to be cute...that's just the limit of her powers. Things like saying no to candy were things that were instinctive and decisions predetermined in neo's head. (preferences, in other words...an example is whenever my GF's mom would ask me for a drink when I first get to her house, I always say thank you but no..probably something she got to used to but an exchange of politeness that occurs whether I was dying of thirst or not. though I might change my mind 5 minutes later) so anyway, I would hate to pull out the age card and be offensive, you seem nice enough, but I can tell by your tone that you might not necessarily grasp the extent of the deeper plot. sorry, I hope you see it again, cos the action alone...I mean, come on? the APUs? those kicked ass! anyway, I almost died when they referred to their mechs as A.P.U.'s Apu?!?!? how funny is that? ok, bye.

Ok, I'll enlighten the peasants... "Revolutions" isn't going to change the face of movies, like the first one...however, the Wachowski bros did their best "Return of the Jedi" impression and finished out the story of "the matrix." Luckily for us there weren't any candy-ass ewoks to spawn a cartoon or spin off film. Regardless, the movie is quite good. If you did war flicks, they spend a ton of time on that. More or less its mildly predictable, but MUCH better than reloaded. I think they did a good job of not ramming the philosophical down your throat or making it too much of the plot, a la reloaded, yet I think this one explains far more concisely what the hell is going on. To be honest, I really like the oracle...you'll see what I mean. Change is good thing:) So f*** off if you didn't like it, because you obviously went into it expecting the world on a stick. (whatever that means...haha) It's actiony seasoned by the metaphysical mumbo jumbo that makes the whole idea of the matrix rad....yes, rad. did I mention my brother worked on the first film? haha...name dropping, sorry.

what do you mean by choke? i don't think you can say much about his experience in SF. He lost 3 in a row, then won 3 in a row, then lost three in a row. Seems streaky. lost a game giving up 4 hits (3ERs) in 8.1 innings. lost another with 7 hits, 2 ERs, in 7.1 inn. His wins 6-4 win over FLA at home 6.0, 6 hits, 2 ER 6-4 win AT COL. 7.2, 5 H, 1 ER 2-0 win AT ARI. 8.0, 6 H, 0 ER If Garland could ever make up his mind whether he wants to play in the big leagues for real, we could sign Ponson and have moderately good 3-4 and great 1-2 pitchers. who knows.

pant size... or the fact that he looks like an ugly woman dressed like a man.
-
three words... Rocky Freakin' Biddle.
-
Ozzie saw what good pitching looks like in pavano, beckett, et al... I don't blame him for his stance. In reality we'll utilize our relief corps, but I think any manager would love 5 starters to go 8+ innings every night. He's letting Kenny know that he wants to get some FAs, as well.

Wow. Now that is something to think about. are f***ing serious? You really stand by that crap? no s*** the divorce rate is climbing day by day. If you find a girl you love and loves you back, you'll understand that anyone that ascribes to that honkey s*** will only find misery. Train her like a monkey? WTF??!!? And if you haven't figured out that women run every man/woman relationship, than no wonder you're buying into that junk. good luck buddy, I'm sure you're going to have a lot of success with that philosophy.........

classic buddy... don't hurt yourself backpeddeling.

you should ask Beastly....
-
you should wait a year to kiss her, buy her an expensive ring.... oh wait...dude, just let her know how you feel. I'm sure she's gonna want to work it out, and you never know how things will turn out. If she freaks then you're better off, but a brake check just might be the thing she needs. Who knows, you could be sending her some green light signals, which make her think things should be going quicker than you want. check yo' self that way when you do talk to her you're in the clear. whatever

HAHAHAHAHA.... pedophilac jews preferably.
