QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 02:13 PM) This should be interesting. I think his religion will play a major role in his possibility of being elected - more so than other candidates who may be various sects of Christian or Jewish. A lot of people don't see Mormonism as a real religion at all, and the evangelicals and christian coalition types certainly don't see it as a type of Christianity. Here is another wildcard for him. I think its possible that a lot of people still don't know he is a Mormon, and there is yet another batch of folks who don't know anything about it in any case. I think he's decided that his popularity is at a peak, and these things are going to come up anyway, so best to get it out there now. I will be very curious to see how its reacted to, and how his numbers start to look once its more well known what his beliefs are, and once more people start finding out a little more about the Latter Day Saints. My new voting policy: Vote for the person that annoys me the least when I hear them talk on the radio because I will forced to listen to THAT VOICE for at minimum the next 4 years.

Mitt was on NPR last night...he was very well spoken (and schooled Robert Siegel). I think he might be getting my vote.

did anyone stop and ask the bear whether it LIKED its name or not? I have decided to withold my judgement until he speaks!

how would I go about taking a DVD and uploading those files to youtube? 1) what file formats are youtube appropriate? 2) what program should I use to rip the DVDs 3) what program would allow me to take those files and convert them to a youtube compatible format? thanks in advance.

my favorite news story of the year...just keeps on giving!

Chris you freaking rocked that thing. I think typing on a laptop for work has f***ed up my typing speed. Just imagine how fast you could type if you weren't looking at porn and could use "both hands"

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Dec 1, 2007 -> 02:31 PM) The Army of God, the Christian Identity movement, the Aryans, the American Nazi Party, the KKK, the National Alliance and other racist organizations that attempt to attach their bulls*** racist ideologies to a "Christian" veneer. There's fundies who use religion as a means of gaining political power solely for the use of political power. Chris Hedges, a Christian war correspondent, recently wrote a fantastic book on the subject of American dominionists using religion as a means to gain political power using the Christian religion as its focal point inside America -- rather than the Muslim handwringing that gets so much political/news play. (I am not trying to tone down or dismiss the fact there are Muslim fundies -- their treatment of women with forced circumcisions, the morality police in countries that enforce sharia (i.e. the execution of an underage girl in Iran which was turned into a really interesting documentary that has aired repeatedly in American TV), et al.) I am however, trying to say that the greatest minds of the 14th Century in all religions do us no favors to promote our reason based society that we have because their position is not based on reason. we're on the same page, for the record. I think religion creates some of the craziest mfing wackos out there...but I think for speculation's purposes how many Christians do you think consider those wackos to be wackos versus Muslims who consider their wackos...wackos? rather than, let's say "people who might be justified in their actions". my conjecture would be landslide towards one side over the other...and the title of this thread says it all.

because that was 1 group of 10 people? not hundreds of groups of thousands of people?

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Dec 1, 2007 -> 12:39 PM) Hopefully all of these things have been documented and it was communicated to them that they were on their last strike. If so, give them a brief recap of all the things they did wrong and all the steps you took along the way to try to help them improve. In these situations the goal is to have them realize that YOU are not firing them, but that they got themselves fired. I have a sexy word document in front of me with all of those things you have just said. buh-bye time. I'm just not thrilled that I have to be the one to do it, because I have a manager above me that should be doing it.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Dec 1, 2007 -> 11:58 AM) Why specifically are they being canned? where do I start? 2 months with little sign of improvement in job performance (this person was hired as a supervisor) twice left a key in the door to a SECURE location (yeah, I work at a bank, fyi) overnight co-workers have to clean up after this person and complain insubordination pretty much every day (this person is older -6 months- than me so therefore thinks they know more than me, despire having 6 more years of banking experience than they do) told me on two different occassions that they're "looking" for better opportunities in general, they shouldn't have been hired. (not my call in the first place)

open wide and say "ahhh!" this is in fact a real logo for a real hospital.

Any advice to give for someone who's about to fire an employee for the first time?

first time: 305-47-5 second: 386-65-3 I think if I were typing actual sentences I would do better. My brain slows down because it's jibberish and I want to type complete sentences.

69....That's the way to go...

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Nov 30, 2007 -> 09:10 PM) It's going to be difficult for this lady to live a normal life after this incident. Her face is plastered all over the news. I don't know how you walk down a street by yourself or visit a grocery store without looking over your shoulder. We've seen prior examples of how Islamic extremists hold grudges. seriously? I couldn't pick this uggo out of a sea of ugly english ladies in london.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Nov 29, 2007 -> 09:55 PM) Tonight was definitely my favorite episode of the season. I'm loving the rehashing of story lines relevant to people watching this show since the beginning. I always thought it was odd that Kelso claimed to be in his 50s, in the previous seasons. HOOCH IS CRAZY! I predicted it last season (when last season was supposed to be the "last season") when they had all those kelso episodes that they were getting ready to get rid of him as CoM. Cox for Chief of Medicine!!!

raspberry is the bomb...and CREAMY Natural all the way.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Nov 29, 2007 -> 11:00 AM) Which is why I don't trust blogs :-) I only take ads that I can write about in a personal manner...but $75 in a month ain't bad and I just started. I understand what you're saying though.

First plan of attack....take out the six guys around "robo soldier" that it takes to keep his wires straight Second wave....take out the 3 guys who are holding the ropes that are keeping "robo soldier" upright.

Finally watched "The Queen" last night with the Mrs. It was indeed great.
